The Center for Deaf-Blind Persons is Israel's first and only center serving the estimated 1200 Israelis who have the dual disability of deaf-blindness. Deaf-blind people require extensive services tailored to their special needs, as they are able to benefit only partially from services offered by organizations just for the deaf or blind.
The majority of the Israeli deaf-blind population has Usher Syndrome, a genetic condition characterized by hearing loss from birth and progressive loss of vision through life. The Center for Deaf-Blind Persons helps these individuals use the "window of opportunity" while they still retain some vision to learn skills for coping with their impending blindness.
Located in the Helen Keller House in the Yad Eliyahu neighborhood of Tel Aviv, the Center serves deaf-blind individuals from across Israel.
The Center for Deaf-Blind Persons was established in 1989 by the Beth David Institute, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing solutions in education and rehabilitation for disabled populations.
Deaf-blindness is defined as any combination of profound or partial deafness and complete or partial loss of vision. The leading cause of deaf-blindness in Israel is Usher Syndrome, a genetic condition characterized by hearing loss from birth and the progressive loss of throughout life. The Center for Deaf-Blind persons helps these individuals use the "window of opportunity" while they still retain some vision to learn skills for coping with their impending blindness.
Usher Syndrome is a genetic condition characterized by deafness from birth and progressive vision loss. The loss of vision is caused by retinitis pigmentosa, a disease in which the light-sensitive tissue of the retina gradually deteriorates. Night vision loss begins first, followed by blind spots that develop in peripheral vision. Over time, these blind spots enlarge and merge to produce tunnel vision. In some cases of Usher Syndrome, vision is further impaired by cataracts.
Individuals with Usher Syndrome are likely to retain sufficient vision for reading and mobility until their forties or fifties. There is thus a window of opportunity, between the ages of 18-40, when they can prepare for the deterioration of their vision.

Number 2 excellent idea. Keep 'em coming!
Howard, is there anyway to use one of the volume buttons on the side of the iPhone as the PTT? This would make using the iPhone a whole lot easier for xmitting while holding it like a phone. I realize that you would have to disable its volume function first.
I agree it would be nice to have a PTT switch. We might run into the Apple approval process by redefining one of the switches. Apple now allows the use of one of the buttons as a camera shutter, but there was a big squabble with an app publisher a year ago who tried to do that first. Apple is pretty clear about what can and can't be done.
There is a walkie talkie app called Zello that lets you program the volume up button for tx as well as the typical touch screen. I too would love to see this feature. Sometimes i have trouble with my display shutting off if it senses my hand moving over the screen just inches away. Its the same as when you take a call and raise the phone to your head.
That's an interesting question I will have to research. Normally, Apple is extremely conservative for allowing non-standard use of buttons such as the volume up/down buttons. I am surprised you have a problem with your hand blanking the screen. The sensor used for detecting your ear is at the top of the screen, out of the way of most gestures.


It is my first time setting up some lighting for the outside of my home. It is very late but I just finished the setup on the evening of the 23rd. I think I am the last person in my neighborhood who did it on 24th morning, lol. Anyway, It is better late than never. And it fullfils my last year's resolution of having lighting for the kids in Christmas.


Virtual reality headsets like the Oculus Rift have the potentail to offer truly immersive experiences. But being strapped in to a headset means losing awareness about the world around you, which is especially tricky if you need to, say, reach for you keyboard.
This is one of the problems the Vrvana Totem headset aims to solve. The headset features two forward-facing cameras that can be passed through to the display, meaning you can see the world around you as needed.
The Totem is the product of a small team lead by Bertand Nepvue, who told Mashable he has been developing a virtual reality headset for the last nine years. He said he was inspired by the Xbox 360 hardware, which he believed was strong enough to support a plug-and-play virtual reality system.
When comparing the Totem to other virtual reality development kits on the market, you'll see a lot of similarities, too. The Totem has an OLED screen with a 90-degree viewing angle, which is similar to Sony's Project Morpheus and a bit smaller than 100-degree field of view in the Oculus Rift second-generation development kit. The headset does include its own audio output, which Nepvue said is essential for it to work with non-PC platforms.
The two cameras, in addition to allowing the Totem's passthrough video, also provide the headset's positional tracking. Instead of a camera watching the headset, like on the Rift or Morpheus, the camera determines position by scanning the room. Nepvue said would also allow for some creative augmented reality experiments down the road.
Since many virtual reality games and concepts have been developed for the Oculus Rift, Nepvue said the Totem would be compatible with all software that currently works with the Oculus first-gen development kits, and is hoping to get it ready for the second-gen development kits as well.
Currently those interested in the Totem can grab a development kit for $495 through the Kickstarter. Vrvana hopes to raise $350,000 by Oct. 15.

Q: Solving equation $A^TX + X^TA = B$ respect to $X$ Given $A\in\mathbb{R}^{m\times n},B\in \mathbb{R}^{n\times n}$, where $A$ is a orthogonal matrix $(A^TA = I_n)$, how to solve the equation
$$
A^TX + X^TA = B.
$$
Answer: If $B$ is a symmetric matrix. Then the equation has a solution and the solution is
$$
X = \frac{1}{2}AB.
$$

A: As requested in the comment, here is a way to solve the equation.
Let's suppose that we have a solution $X$ to the equation $A^TX+X^TA=B$. Clearly the LHS is a symmetric matrix, so $B$ has to be symmetric. Then the equation can be rewritten as
$$\dfrac{(A^TX)+(A^TX)^T}{2} = \dfrac{B}{2}$$
which leads to
$$A^TX = \dfrac{(A^TX)+(A^TX)^T}{2} +  \dfrac{(A^TX)-(A^TX)^T}{2} = \dfrac{B}{2} + M$$
where $M = \dfrac{(A^TX)-(A^TX)^T}{2}$ is skew-symmetric.
Multiplying on the left by $A$, you get finally that
$$X = A \left( \dfrac{1}{2}B + M\right)$$
Conversely, it is not difficult to check that any matrix of the type $X = A \left( \dfrac{1}{2}B + M\right)$, where $M$ is skew-symmetric, is a solution of the equation.
So there are solutions only if $B$ is symmetric, and in that case, the solutions are exactly the matrices $X = A \left( \dfrac{1}{2}B + M\right)$, where $M$ is skew-symmetric.

In the build up to the Brighton Marathon, I have been posting daily Pain Points. These are the based on the last east understanding of pain, addressing one of the major issues that we face: the misunderstanding of pain.
Why is this such an issue? Because of the millions and millions of people suffering across the globe and the cost to society, when it does not have to be this way. We can change this, but it will take a revision of thinking that in turn drives new actions consistently.
I regularly hear examples of how a person suffers pain so they visit their GP. They are usually given pain relief. Ok, that's a part of it, but how does the person know what to do themselves to get better? They need that knowledge and practical tools from the outset. That is what makes the difference. Taking pain killers does not address the reasons why the person is in pain, and until these needs are met, there will be on-going suffering and on-going cost. And just in case you were thinking it, I do not believe it is an issue with GPs, but rather one that exists in society and the system.
If pain were globally understood, this scenario would be very different. This is my vision and what I am working towards through Understand Pain social enterprise.
Visibility delivers messages. That's one of the reasons why I get out and run with the logos on my shirt (it's also good for my health…), using the #upandrun (see me on Twitter @painphysio and Instagram @paincoach.
My purpose is to give people insight into the reasons for their suffering so that they can move on to live a fulfilling life. I want to reach as far and as wide as possible. I see people 1:1 in the clinic, but I want anyone, anywhere to access this information so that they can regain control, feel empowered and start building a better life, with meaning, purpose and connection to what is important. This is the essence of Pain Coaching that I have been pioneering for the past 10 years.
Here are the links to the Pain Points on the Understand Pain site. More will be added so keep checking back. Together we make a better world!
You can sponsor me here for the Brighton Marathon.

Amateur Berg takes wins Oregon Open
Derek Berg, an amateur who plays out of Glendale Country Club in Bellevue, fired a three-round total of 209 and held on to win the 2010 Oregon Open Invitational by one shot over Casey McCoy at Juniper Golf Club in Redmond, Ore.
Berg is one of the top amateurs in the Pacific Northwest and attempted to get through PGA Tour Qualifying School last fall but came up short. This win will go a long way to helping him get that professional career heading in the right direction.
Berg shot rounds of 72-65-72 for a 209 total while McCoy tried to come back in the final round with a 69 but came up one shot short of forcing a playoff.
Jeff Coston, the director of instruction at Semiahmoo Resort, tied for third place in the tournament with Kyle Kelly of Tamarisk at 211 while amateur Casey King of Tokatee in Oregon was fifth at 212.
Fred Haney of the Reserve was sixth at 215 while Darek Franklin of Willamette Valley Country Club tied for seventh with Corey Prugh of Manito Golf Club and amateur Alex More of Horn Rapids at 216.
Berg has been successful in professional events in the Northwest before having won the Northwest Open Invitational in 2005 and 2006 as an amateur.
Berg also played college golf for the University of Washington.

Q: Sum Like Child Variables How would I sum the qty variable in each parent variable without doing (flower.blueyellow.qty + flower.redyellow.qty) in the following code:
var flower = {
 blueyellow: {
    color : "linear-gradient(to right, blue, yellow)",
    src : "https://cdn.pixabay.com/photo/2022/07/22/15/11/woman-7338352_1280.jpg",
    price : 30,
    qty : 0,

"What do I say of a reprobate eight man/one woman ensemble (one man/woman, four longhairs, two ska dudes & a Mexican!) that just delivered 13 songs of extreme diversity, ranging from Death C&W to Soviet-powered Detroit Space Rock, via wonderfully excruciating mush-mouthed male-female Vow Renewals and Sober'd Up confessionals. For fans of Destroy All Monsters (all periods, kiddies), Armand Schaubroeuk Steals, the Afrika Corps, BALLS BOOGIE rescues several Long Dead musical genres from the Straights and slams them out eins, zwei, and drei, without so much as a soundcheck..... Search out this hot slab pronto, Tonto, and check out those front men while yooz at it! Ooer, missus!"

Terrascope review: "...although they played live as AIDS, has an undeniable power in its lo-fi Folk Noire ramblings. A voice all its own that will either enthral you or grate with you, I can't imagine much in between. Personally, it has a taken a couple of plays before my ear tuned in, but I am glad it did, as songs such "Echo Power" and "People Hate You In This Town" contain the same sardonic lyricism as The Velvets whilst being oddly constructed in a Syd Barrett, Skip Spence kinda way. Featuring future members of Wet Dirt, July 4th Toilet, and The New pornographers, the music is acoustic, reasonably free-form and is more uneasy than easy listening, although there are hidden depths to be discovered, pockets of beauty and a strange sense of stillness at its core. "

Meet the Will Trent cast: who's who in the police drama
By Terrell Smith
Get to know the characters and cast of Will Trent, ABC's new show.

If you haven't heard, ABC has a new "procedural" night on its hands. The broadcasting network's Tuesday's primetime lineup has been taken over by The Rookie, The Rookie: Feds and the newest show in town, Will Trent.
Based on Karin Slaughter's New York Times bestselling book series, the TV adaptation of Will Trent follows brilliant Special Agent Trent (Ramón Rodríguez) as he uses his unique brand of detective work to solve cases and apprehend suspects. Critics have fallen in love with Will Trent, giving the show a Rotten Tomatoes (opens in new tab) score of 100% (as of January 9).
So who is in the new critically-acclaimed drama? Let's meet the cast of Will Trent.
Ramón Rodríguez as Will Trent
Ramón Rodríguez in Will Trent (Image credit: ABC)
Will Trent is a quirky special agent for the Georgia Bureau of Investigations (GBI). His unique approach to crime investigation makes him one of the best detectives in the department. However, given he prefers to do things his way at all times, his approach doesn't exactly make him the most popular agent among his peers. In fact, Will isn't a very social person at all. With that said, his primary concern is not to be liked, but to make sure no victim or their loved ones feel abandoned as he did growing up as a child in the Atlanta foster care system.
Playing Will Trent is actor Ramón Rodríguez. Rodríguez was previously been spotted as Leo in Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen, John in Lullaby and Ben in The Affair.
Erika Christensen as Angie
Erika Christensen in Will Trent (Image credit: ABC/Kim Simms)
Serving as Will's best friend is Angie. Angie was able to crack Will's hard exterior at an early age as the two have been friends since they were kids. However, over the years, their friendship has evolved into romance on occasion. While she is also a good detective, what serves as a potential hindrance in her career is her teetering sobriety.
Starring as Angie is Erika Christensen. Christensen was featured as Kate in Cheaper by the Dozen, as Gertie in Clover and as Julia in Parenthood.
Iantha Richardson as Faith

Faith is Will's reluctant partner. While she can't deny his intelligence, she's not always appreciative of his tactics when solving cases. In terms of her no-nonsense approach to police work, she heavily relies on her knowledge and experience of Atlanta.
Iantha Richardson plays Faith. Richardson's most notable role has been as the adult version of Tess in the hit series This Is Us. She's also starred as Tessa in American Soul and Tolu in Good Trouble.
Jake McLaughlin as Michael
Jake McLaughlin in Will Trent (Image credit: ABC/Kim Simms)
Every police procedural needs a straight-laced, by-the-books law enforcement agent, and Michael is that person. He was formerly in the military and it appears his desire to protect and serve stems more so from a sense of civic duty. All in all, he is Will's polar opposite.
Jake McLaughlin stars as Michael. McLaughlin formerly played Ryan in Quantico, William in Believe and Marvin in Home.
Sonja Sohn as Amanda

Amanda is the head of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation and Will's boss. While she is a strict and fearless leader knowing all eyes are on her, she oddly enough gives Will the occasional space to conduct his unorthodox detective work.
Playing Amanda is actress Sonja Sohn. Sohn has made a name for herself in the crime drama genre, starring as Shakima in The Wire, Katherine in Utopia and has been spotted as Laverne in The Chi.
Will Trent continues to air on Tuesdays on ABC, with new episodes becoming available to stream on Hulu the next day.

Terrell Smith
Terrell Smith has a diverse writing background having penned material for a wide array of clients including the federal government and Bravo television personalities. When he's not writing as Terrell, he's writing under his pseudonym Tavion Scott, creating scripts for his audio drama podcasts. Terrell is a huge fan of great storytelling when it comes to television and film. Some of his favorite shows include The Crown, WandaVision, Abbot Elementary and Godfather of Harlem. And a fun fact is he's completely dialed into the TLC 90 Day Fiancé universe.

Mario Cristobal, Miami Hurricanes keep pulling in talent as ex-South Dade star WR Frank Ladson announces transfer from Clemson
Here's where to attend Martin Luther King Jr. events in 2022
Heat focused on No. 20 in NBA draft, but also entering Wednesday with wider perspective
By Ira Winderman
Typically, when Adam Simon is asked about his vantage point for the NBA draft, it is about whether the Miami Heat will go big or small, trade up or trade down, take the sure thing or seize upon untapped potential.
This year, it has been about the vantage point the Heat assistant general manager has had when it has come to scouting prospects amid a pandemic.
Some workouts have come via teleconference, others in-person either at AmericanAirlines Arena or elsewhere. With some prospects, the limit of the interactions have been Zoom interviews.
But the tape has been scoured, metrics measured, the team's draft board filled with 60 prospects, one for each selection in Wednesday's two-round process.
So, shortly before 10 p.m. Wednesday, the Heat will make their statement with the No. 20 selection, provided they don't move up, down or out.

What is known is the Heat have had face time with Memphis forward Precious Achiuwa, North Carolina guard Cole Anthony, Duke center Vernon Carey Jr., Kentucky guard Tyrese Maxey, Vanderbilt guard Aaron Nesmith, Arizona forward Zeke Nnaji, Kentucky guard Immanuel Quickley and Maryland forward Jalen Smith, among others.
"The challenge of this draft, I think some of the players at the top of the draft, whether they didn't play a lot during the season or they went overseas, I think it makes it a little bit more challenging," Simon said, with several leading prospects either cutting their college careers short before the onset of the coronavirus pandemic and others opting to play overseas. "But, I think, the draft, is deep. There are good players.
"At this point, we have the 20th pick. We feel good about the players that we've studied and our board. I think we can find a good player."
Or, perhaps, get greedy and talk Heat president Pat Riley and general manager Andy Elisburg into more.
Several teams have multiple first-round picks that could be available for trade, plus there is the possibility of buying into the second round, with the Heat lacking a second-round selection.
"I think my responsibility to our organization is between our scouting department, who can we sell Pat and Andy, who are the players that we think best fit what we want?" Simon said. "So, as of now, we have a first-round pick. But who's to say that we're picking and there's two players out there, and the player falls to the second round? For every team that doesn't have a pick, that means some team has multiples and maybe they don't want their picks.

"So if an opportunity comes up where the price is right and we can jump in there, you weigh that. There's been years where we didn't want more players, and we ended up taking 'em. And if it doesn't work, it doesn't work. But at least you're going after the players that you want."
Whether volume is necessary is debatable, with the Heat already with KZ Okpala, Chris Silva, Gabe Vincent, Kyle Alexander, and even Tyler Herro, Kendrick Nunn, Duncan Robinson and Bam Adebayo in their development pipeline.

"I think we look at it like, 'Yeah, we have a good group of young prospects that still have a lot of upside,'" Simon said. "There's been years where you've been an older team, and now we have a good group of young players. But I think you look at it, with two-way contracts and having your own G League team, I think it gives you options to add players, not necessarily as on your 15-man roster, but you can draft a player and two-way him. And you can maybe hold their rights, as well.

From championship teammate to Heat opponent, it's all love from Raptors for 'the old man' Kyle Lowry
"So I think it's our responsibility to rank 60 players and also be prepared for who's not going to get drafted. And that's just as big a part of the draft as the draft itself. I know it means a lot to get your draft pick right, but we've been able to find players who weren't drafted. So we're pretty thorough of going through over 100-plus players."
Based on how free agency plays out when that process starts at 6 p.m. Friday, the Heat could find themselves with specific areas of need in their bid to return to the NBA Finals. But Simon said such thinking can be dangerous in a draft.
"It's always the taking-the-best-player rule," he said. "But that's all subjective. And the best player might be the best player that fits your roster. And, so, at the end of the day, like we always say, 'rosters can change; trades can happen.'
"There's years where, yes, you are a championship-contending team and you might have this type of player who fits. But you have to be careful, because if you pass on talent based on need, the talent you passed on could be the best player five years down the road."

Miscarriage Taboo
My wife had a miscarriage about 3 weeks ago. She was very early in her pregnancy so we hadn't really told anyone yet except for 4 close family members. Telling family made the whole experience even more exciting and fun! It was actually happening! We were going to have a baby and were going to be parents! And then 3 or 4 days later my wife started having some heavy bleeding, which was followed by ER visits, blood work, doctor visits and the eventual news that it was indeed a miscarriage. The small circle of people that knew grieved and we all supported each other and our 4 family members helped us so much emotionally.
The hardest thing for me was the taboo of it all. I felt like if I told people about the miscarriage I would somehow be inconveniencing them by getting them involved. Why do we have to wait 12 weeks to tell a larger group of people about pregnancy? Why is there a taboo around miscarriages? Why not tell all you're trusted friends and family as soon as you find out? These are all real questions I have and these thoughts are still very new and I'm trying to learn the best way to address this the next time we are pregnant. And maybe it's a reflection of the relationship I have with my family, maybe I'm not as close as I should/want to be. But I think telling trusted family and friends early would do 2 very important things
1: in the case of a miscarriage, you'd have so many more people to help and support you emotionally.
2: more people would realize how common miscarriages are and that it's a very normal thing and that if it happens to them, they know they're not alone because they've heard about other people going through the same thing and can reach out to them get support from people who have gone through the same thing.
Again, these are all very new thoughts and I don't know if this is the best way and these thoughts are more specific to early pregnancy miscarriages but I feel it shouldn't have to be an uncomfortable, awkward, or hard thing for your close family and friends to hear about what you're going through with a miscarriage. We shouldn't feel like we're alone. And to anyone reading this, you are not alone, there is hope, it's never easy, but there is always hope. My wife had a miscarriage about 3 weeks ago. She was very early in her pregnancy so we hadn't really told anyone yet except for 4 close family members. Telling family made the whole experience even more exciting and fun!

We told lots of people at twelve weeks and everything was ok yet we lost our little boy Rowan at 16 weeks.
When we found out about the miscarriage we had to tell a lot of family and friends as well as work colleagues etc which was hard as it was sharing sad news.
A lot of miscarriages happen before twelve weeks so I understand why people are reluctant to tell lots of people before then.
I didn't enjoy telling people t
That's a good point. There may be good reason for the "12 week rule". Even though it doesn't prevent the pain of telling others for everyone, it could for some. That would add to the pain of it all. That's really tough. I'm sorry.
I think maybe the same people that you'd feel comfortable telling about a miscarriage are the same people that you could tell you are expecting (pre 12 weeks). That still doesn't help with the miscarriages that happen after 12 weeks, but maybe something that could help some.
I also think that a lot of these thoughts come from me trying to figure out how to tell my family about everything going on. I still have a lot I'm trying to figure out. Thanks for your input.
Dear TWhatcott, I'm very sorry to hear about yours and your partners miscarriage. My deepest condolences go out to you both. I agree, there is a massive taboo around miscarriage, and I think it makes people feel awkward. I don't know why that is as unfortunately, it's a sad part of life's plans for us all. I disagree with the 12 week theory, I think from years gone by that it's believed that after 12 weeks everything 'will be good' - not the case unfortunately, things can go wrong at any time. It's an interesting point you make, why not tell people earlier? And then you have people to help you through the dark time. I'd be intrigued to hear other people's thoughts on this also. This is exactly the reason this page was set up, to ask the questions. We are not professionals, but we can all learn from each other from the experiences we have had. It's frightening how common miscarriage is, 1 in 4 women will suffer miscarriage, yet we always hear very little about it. People maybe want to keep it a secret and grieve alone, that's fine, everyone grieves in their own way. My way of grieving was setting up this website, so other guys like myself had a platform to be able to converse with others. Share life experiences and maybe, just maybe help one another get through this dark time. On the helpful links page you will find some links to 3 wonderful charities. All who have professional working for them, should you need something more than a support network. Thank you for reaching out TWhatcott, You know where I am if you need a private chat. Chris.

Weekly Tax News - Monday 12 December 2022
VAT goes digital: the tax practitioners' perspective
During a conference organized by the European Tax Adviser Federation (ETAF) on Wednesday 7 December 2022, tax advisers discussed with Patrice Pillet, Head of Unit VAT at the European Commission, how the package "VAT in the digital age" (ViDA) will affect our profession and what are its expected benefits, just one day before its official adoption on 8 December. "Electronic invoicing, associated with necessary regulatory changes, will undoubtedly modify the landscape of our profession. And we are quite ready for that!", ETAF president Philippe Arraou said. ETAF very much welcomes and supports the staged approach on e-invoicing and digital reporting proposed in the new package. The proposed quasi real time access to invoicing information through an EU central database would save EU businesses over 4.1 billion euros per year on average in compliance costs over the next ten years, Patrice Pillet estimated. For Dr. Stefanie Becker, the ETAF representative in the Commission's VAT expert group, the existing fragmentation of e-invoicing systems makes it really difficult for businesses to work cross-border and it is urgent to have a solution at EU level. Olivier Hody, Tax Adviser member of ITAA and Partner at the Deloitte Global Tax Center Europe, highlighted the concerns of the profession with the entrance of new e-invoicing players on the market and the potential "uberisation risk". Speakers also discussed the two other pillars of the package: the updated VAT rules for passenger transport and short-term accommodation platforms as well as the introduction of a single VAT registration across the EU. Our event can be watched again online here.
Commission unveils its VAT in the digital age package
The European Commission published on Thursday 8 December its package "VAT in the digital age" (ViDA). It contains three pillars: - mandatory cross-border intra-EU e-invoicing and digital reporting requirements using the European standard EN 16931 ; - updated VAT rules for passenger transport and short-term accommodation platforms and ; - the introduction of a single VAT registration across the EU. All the changes proposed will be phased in between 2024 and 2028. The Commission estimates that the new measures will help Member States to collect up to 18 billion euros more in VAT revenues annually. On the same day, the Commission also published its 2022 VAT gap report, showing that Member States lost 93 billion euros in VAT revenues in 2020.
Eighth amendment to the Directive on Administrative Cooperation (DAC8)
The European Commission presented on Thursday 8 December a proposal of Directive amending for the eighth time the Directive on Administrative Cooperation in tax matters (DAC8). The main purpose of this proposal is to extend the automatic exchange of information between EU Member States foreseen by the Directive to income earned through crypto assets. The text requires reporting by EU and non-EU crypto-asset operators (when they have reportable users resident in the EU). Both domestic and cross-border transactions are covered. According to the Commission, this exchange of information could help Member States to recover 2.4 billion euros of tax revenues due. The proposal also extends the scope of the automatic exchange of advance cross-border rulings for high net-worth individuals, who hold a minimum of €1.000.000 in financial or investable wealth, or in assets under management. These exclude the individual's main private residence. Member States will have to exchange information on the advance cross-border rulings issued, amended or renewed between 1 January 2020 and 31 December 2025, if they were still valid on 1 January 2026. Finally, the proposal establishes a common minimum level of penalties for the most serious non-compliant behaviour.
Ecofin cancels its discussion on Pillar Two at last minute
The discussion on the implementing Directive of Pillar Two of the OECD agreement (minimum taxation of multinationals) has been removed at last minute from the agenda of the meeting EU Finance Ministers on Tuesday 6 December. Hungary has refused to lift its veto on Pillar Two and to the EU financial aid to Ukraine for 2023 because it has not received assurances that the procedure under the 'rule of law' regulation that could lead to the suspension of EU cohesion funds for the country will be cancelled, nor has it received the green light from Member States on its recovery plan. The Council of the EU has until 19 December to adopt, amend or reject the Commission's proposal to freeze the funds for Hungary. The Czech presidency of the Council of the EU will reportedly convene a meeting of Member States' ambassadors to the EU on Monday 12 December in the afternoon to discuss a way forward on the four files. If an agreement is reached between the ambassadors, the package could be adopted early next week. If not, a new meeting of EU Finance Ministers could be organized before 19 December to break the deadlock.
Council agrees on AML regulation and AMLD6
The Council of the EU adopted on Wednesday 7 December its position on the anti-money laundering (AML) regulation and a new directive (AMLD6), proposed by the European Commission in July 2021. The EU AML rules will be extended to the crypto sector. The texts notably require crypto-assets service providers to apply customer due diligence measures when carrying out transactions of €1,000 or more and add measures to mitigate the risks associated with transactions with self-hosted wallets. EU Member States also agreed on an EU-wide maximum limit of €10.000 for cash payments, while allowing Member States to impose lower maximum limit. The texts also foresee that third countries that are listed by the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) will be listed by the EU. There will accordingly be two EU lists, a "blacklist" and a "grey list", reflecting the FATF listings. The Commission will not be required to redo the identification process performed by the FATF. With regard to the beneficial ownership rules, the Council of the EU clarified that beneficial ownership is based on two components - ownership and control. The Council of the EU also detailed how to identify and verify the identity of beneficial owners for all types of entities, including non-EU ones. The provisions on data protection and document retention are also clarified in order to facilitate and speed up the work of the competent authorities. The European Parliament is expected to take a position on these texts in mid-March 2023, after what the interinstitutional negotiations will start.
ECJ clarifies rules for lawyers-intermediaries in aggressive tax planning
The Administrative Cooperation Directive (2011/16/EU) requires all intermediaries involved in potentially aggressive cross-border tax planning to report it to the tax authorities. However, each Member State may grant lawyers an exemption from this obligation where it would be contrary to professional secrecy. Intermediary lawyers are nonetheless required to notify any other intermediary, or the taxpayer concerned, of their reporting obligations to the competent authorities without delay. In a judgment (Case C-694/20) published on Thursday 8 December, the Court of Justice of the EU ruled that the EU Charter of Fundamental Rights protects the confidentiality of all correspondence between individuals and grants enhanced protection to exchanges between lawyers and their clients on the basis of professional secrecy. The above-mentioned obligation implies that other intermediaries are made aware of the identity of the intermediary lawyer and his or her analysis that the scheme should be reported. This interferes with the right to respect for communications between lawyers and their clients, the Court said. And the obligation of intermediaries to inform the tax authorities of the identity and consultation of the lawyer leads to a second interference. The reporting obligation on other intermediaries who are not subject to legal professional privilege and, if there are no such intermediaries, that obligation on the relevant taxpayer, ensure, in principle, that the tax authorities are informed, the ECJ concluded.
OECD consults on the design elements of Amount B under Pillar One
The OECD published on Thursday 8 December a public consultation document on the main design elements of Amount B under Pillar One (reallocation of taxing rights). Amount B provides for a simplified and streamlined approach to the application of the arm's length principle to in-country baseline marketing and distribution activities, with a particular focus on the needs of low-capacity countries. The document outlines the scope, the pricing methodology and the current status of discussions concerning an appropriate implementation framework and seeks inputs from stakeholders in a number of specific questions. Interested parties have until 25 January 2023 to send their comments on the public consultation document to the OECD Secretariat.
This newsletter contains information about European tax policies and developments gathered from official documents, hearings, conferences and the press. It does not reflect the official position of ETAF nor should it be taken as a written statement on behalf of ETAF.

Q: How to insert items inside listbox withing another listbox on button click I have a Listbox which is bound to a DataTemplate that has another Listbox on it.
On DataTemplate there is a button that I want to use for adding items to DataTemplate ListBox, but I can't find a solution to do this.
Here is my listbox:
<Button Width="200" Content="Add Question" x:Name="btnAddQuestion" Click="btnAddQuestion_Click"/>
<StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
     <ListBox Margin="5" x:Name="lvQuestions" ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TemplateQuestionTitle}">
     </ListBox>
</StackPanel>

And this is DataTemplate:
<DataTemplate x:Key="TemplateQuestionTitle">
        <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBox  materialDesign:HintAssist.Hint="Enter question" MinWidth="200" Style="{StaticResource MaterialDesignFloatingHintTextBox}"/>
                <Button Content="+" Command="{Binding Source={x:Reference ThisPage},Path=DataContext.Command}" />
            </StackPanel>
            <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding MyItems}" MinHeight="50">
                <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate>
                        <TextBox>
                        </TextBox>
                    </DataTemplate>
                </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            </ListBox>
        </StackPanel>
    </DataTemplate>

This is code behind on my page:
public partial class UIBuilder:Window
{
    private CommandVm _commandVm;
        public UIBuilder()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
           _commandVm = new CommandVm();
            DataContext = _commandVm;
        }
        private void btnAddQuestion_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
        {
            lvQuestions.Items.Add(null);
        }
}

I have implemented this code on my ViewModel in order to add items to datatemplate ListBox:
 public class CommandVm
{
    public ObservableCollection<TextBox> MyItems { get; set; }
    public CommandVm()
    {
        MyItems = new ObservableCollection<TextBox>();
        Command = new RelayCommand<TextBox>(Execute);
    }

    private void Execute(TextBox textBox)
    {
        MyItems .Add(textBox);
    }

    public ICommand Command { get; set; }
}

I use to catch the Execute() function on button "+" click command, but my code doesn't add any ListBox item.

A: MyItems is a property of the parent view model which means that you should bind to it like this:
<ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding DataContext.MyItems,
     RelativeSource={RelativeSource AncestorType=Window}}" MinHeight="50">

This also means that you are using one single collection of items for all questions. Besides this obvious design flaw, a view model should not contain any TextBox elements. This basically breaks what the MVVM pattern is all about.
What you should do to make this example MVVM compliant is to create a Question class that has a collection of items, e.g.:
public class Question
{
    public Question()
    {
        AddAnswerCommand = new RelayCommand<object>(Execute);
    }

    private void Execute(object obj)
    {
        Items.Add(new Answer());
    }

    public ObservableCollection<Answer> Items { get; }
        = new ObservableCollection<Answer>();

    public ICommand AddAnswerCommand { get; }
}

public class Answer { }

The window's view model should then have a collection of questions:
public class CommandVm
{
    public CommandVm()
    {
        AddQuestionCommand = new RelayCommand<object>(Execute);
    }

    public ObservableCollection<Question> Questions { get; }
        = new ObservableCollection<Question>();

    public ICommand AddQuestionCommand { get; }

    private void Execute(object obj)
    {
        Questions.Add(new Question());
    }
}

The view and the bindings could then be defined like this:
<Window.Resources>
    <DataTemplate x:Key="TemplateQuestionTitle">
        <StackPanel Orientation="Vertical">
            <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal">
                <TextBox  MinWidth="200" />
                <Button Content="+" Command="{Binding AddAnswerCommand}" />
            </StackPanel>
            <ListBox ItemsSource="{Binding Items}" MinHeight="50">
                <ListBox.ItemTemplate>
                    <DataTemplate>
                        <TextBox />
                    </DataTemplate>
                </ListBox.ItemTemplate>
            </ListBox>
        </StackPanel>
    </DataTemplate>
</Window.Resources>
<StackPanel>
    <Button Width="200" Content="Add Question" Command="{Binding AddQuestionCommand}"/>
    <ListBox Margin="5"
                 ItemsSource="{Binding Questions}"
                 ItemTemplate="{StaticResource TemplateQuestionTitle}" />
</StackPanel>

This setup lets you add individual elements to each separate question.

Q: Suggestions for dynamic dates/events on a HTML site I volunteer with an animal rescue group and our web site strictly an HTML site with jQuery.
I'm looking for suggestions on how to make this a bit more dynamic so I don't have to figure out when the next adopt-a-pet event will be. They are always on the 2nd and 4th Saturday of each month. With that information, I would expect I could implore a little JavaScript/jQuery magic and produce HTML code, dynamically.

Adopt A Pet

Meet our cats available for adoption on June 26th... MORE

Given the code sample above, the date of June 26th would be a dynamic variable. Only thing is I'm not sure where to start.
If I can get some help with this, I'd really appreciate it.

A: This seems to work for me:
var nextSaturday = new Date();
var months = ['January','February','March','April','May','June','July','August','September','October','November','December'];

var stopper = true;

while(stopper){
    var x = nextSaturday.getDate();

    if(nextSaturday.getDay() == 6 && ((x > 7 && x < 15) || (x > 21 && x < 29))){
        stopper = false;
    } else {
        nextSaturday.setDate(x + 1);
    }
}

console.log("Next 2nd or 4th Saturday is " + months[nextSaturday.getMonth()] + " " + nextSaturday.getDate());

As far as I tested it, it worked, but date junk is weird.

Haiti is a country, capital Port-au-Prince, covering the western part of Hispaniola, a Caribbean island that it shares with the Dominican Republic. Most of the population of Haiti have African roots, a legacy of colonialism and slavery that also accounts for the two major languages: French is one official language, alongside Haitian Creole, a language which emerged through contact between people of diverse linguistic backgrounds. Today, the population of Haiti is about 10 million and the country is a democracy that has seen significant political instability over the years; this situation has been exacerbated by the 2010 Haiti earthquake, which claimed up to a quarter of a million lives.[1]

Haiti is a republic with a president and prime minister. In 2010, these offices were held by René Préval (born 1943; held office 1996-2001 and from 2006) and Jean-Max Bellerive (born 1958; entered office 2009) respectively, both part of the Lespwa party ('hope' in Haitian Creole).
Haiti and the Dominican Republic share the same island but have distinct cultures and histories, with their differences arguably rooted in geography and climate as well as the activities of colonial France and Spain. The Dominican Republic benefits from more frequent rain falling on eastern Hispaniola, and while Haiti's colonial economy was more developed in the nineteenth century, with a much bigger population than on the Spanish side, over time the west was stripped of resources such as timber and well-managed agricultural land. The result is a higher modern population in Haiti than the Dominican Republic, and in turn a higher population density.[2]
Haiti has seen several earthquakes over the centuries, including disasters in 1770 and 1842 which destroyed Port-au-Prince and other settlements. Large parts of the capital were again devastated in 2010, with reconstruction expected to take many years.
For more information, see: History of Haiti.
Haiti was the first republic led by people of African ancestry, formed in 1804. A symbol of hope for many slaves in the United States of America, Haiti also became a bone of contention for the U.S., which delayed recognition of the state until 1862 and considered invading and occupying Hispaniola during the office of President Andrew Johnson. In 1915, the U.S. finally did invade Haiti, President Woodrow Wilson opting to protect what were seen as U.S. national assets. Until 1934, the U.S followed a strongly militaristic policy in Haiti, presiding over much political instability at the time. Between 1888 and 1915, for example, not a single president of Haiti completed a full term.
Haiti's history also records the notoriety of François 'Papa Doc' Duvalier (1907-1971; president, 1957-1971) and his son Jean-Claude 'Baby Doc' Duvalier (born 1951; ruled 1971-1986); the Duvaliers repressed Haiti for decades, forcing thousands to flee the country. In 1990, Jean-Bertrand Aristide was popularly elected, only to be ousted a year later. The U.S. under Bill Clinton intervened to restore Aristide to power, raising an invasion force that entered Haiti unopposed and remaining for two years. Aristide remained in office until 2004, when he left the country through U.S. intervention, following successive terms of office marked by allegations of corruption and drug trading. Aristide insisted that his removal was part of a U.S. plot, a claim strongly opposed by the U.S. government.[3]

This is my fourth try with the white velvet backdrop, and I'm ready to declare it a success.
Very little was done to this image post-processing, other than what you would expect for a RAW file.
I'm shooting 2 EV, with a second speedlight (wearing a small softbox) at half power on the floor on the left, pointing toward the backdrop and up at about a 45 degree angle, each.
