2021 Tour de Yorkshire postponed organisers confirm
Wednesday November 11 3:08 PM
Welcome to Yorkshire and the Amaury Sport Organisation (A.S.O.) have confirmed that the 2021 Tour de Yorkshire will now be postponed until 2022. The difficult decision has been made after in-depth and constructive discussions with race organisers A.S.O., and also after detailed consultation with all the tourism agency's local authority partners.
This sixth edition of the race had been due to take place between 30th April and 3rd May 2020, but the developing situation with COVID-19 meant the event simply became untenable.
Welcome to Yorkshire's Chief Executive James Mason said:
"During these uncertain times Welcome to Yorkshire need to focus on the immediate needs of the industry without committing both financial and human resources towards any activity or event that we cannot be certain of. Cycling has become synonymous with Yorkshire and the Tour de Yorkshire has become a firm fixture on the world cycling calendar due to the reception the riders and teams receive in our county. Whilst it is very disappointing that we will be bereft of this wonderful race for another year the decision we have made it the right one and perhaps the only one we could make. The uncertainty in front of us meant it was impossible to plan or commit the resource that the race needs. This has been a mutual decision made by Welcome to Yorkshire and the A.S.O. and we will all now look forward to putting all our energies into bringing the race back bigger and better than ever in 2022."
Yann Le Moenner, the Director General of A.S.O. said:
"We fully understand Welcome to Yorkshire's position and are totally associated with this joint decision. We have worked a lot together since the Grand Départ of the Tour de France 2014 to put the Tour de Yorkshire on the top of the international cycling calendar. This work is obviously not wasted and we will collectively do our best to re-launch the event in 2022 and give the chance to the world's best riders to be on the Yorkshire roads in front of one of the most enthusiastic audiences the cycling world has ever seen."
The Tour de Yorkshire is of huge economic benefit to the county and its creation followed the success of the 2014 Tour de France's Grand Départ in Yorkshire. This hugely popular event attracted 4 million roadside spectators with 188 countries broadcasting the race live contributing to £330m worth of media coverage with the Grand Depart in Yorkshire trending worldwide on Twitter.
Subsequent Tour de Yorkshire's from 2015 to 2019 have also been an incredible success for the county, boosting the economy and showcasing spectacular Yorkshire scenery across the globe. Benefits for the county during the Tour de Yorkshire have included record-breaking figures of 107.5m Twitter reach (2016), 2.6m spectators along the route and a £98m economic impact (2018), plus a TV audience of 28m in 190 countries (2019).

Unique process to revolutionize solar power usage discovered
The latest study by academics of University of Cambridge led by St John 's College put semi-artificial photosynthesis to use to formulate a new strategy of producing and storing solar energy.ANI | September 04, 2018, 07:47 IST
New Delhi: With researchers successfully splitting the water into hydrogen and oxygen by altering the photosynthesis machinery in plants, the quest of harnessing solar power in different ways has got a renewed hope.
The latest study by academics of University of Cambridge led by St John 's College put semi-artificial photosynthesis to use to formulate a new strategy of producing and storing solar energy. The academics used a blend of modern technologies and biological components to convert water into hydrogen and oxygen from natural sunlight. The methodology also resulted in more absorption of sunlight in comparison to the natural process of photosynthesis.
This unique platform to achieve unassisted solar-driven water-splitting is developed at the Reisner Laboratory in Cambridge and it is expected that the key findings of this research may now revolutionise the systems used for renewable energy.
The issue of scaling process of renewable energy creation through artificial photosynthesis for industrial usage was marred by the fact that catalysts used in the process are often expensive and toxic. However, the Cambridge research instead used the enzymes to create the desired result thus overcoming the limitation.
Researcher Katarzyna Soko along with her team managed to reactivate a process in the algae that has been dormant for millennia. Researchers are now hopeful that innovative model systems for solar energy conversion can be developed through the findings.
Lead researcher Soko asserted that the findings of this research can lead to the emergence of more robust solar technology.
"The approach could be used to couple other reactions together to see what can be done, learn from these reactions and then build synthetic, more robust pieces of solar energy technology," she said.
This is first of its kind model to use hydrogenase and photosystem II for creating semi-artificial photosynthesis supported entirely by solar power.
The research has been published in Nature Energy journal.

He had done the move hundreds of times. Maybe thousands. After many of his successful height clearing competitive high jumps, Jamie Nieto did his signature standing back flip. It was as much for the crowd as it was a personal celebratory act. But on this back flip, on this day, his right foot slipped on the turf and he landed on his neck, completely paralyzing this elite athlete. But becoming a quadriplegic is only the beginning of Jamie's story.

Bloc Projects is a not-for-profit, artist-led space that's been curating, commissioning, and providing floor space for new and established artists for over fifteen years. The studios and gallery are nestled around a courtyard in a collection of buildings at the intersection of Arundel Street and Eyre Lane.
Its recent archive retrospective exhibition included an essay by Dr Matthew Cheeseman, documenting his shifting but fond relationship with the space over its decade and a half of operation. It's that constant shifting that makes Bloc an interesting figure in Sheffield's contemporary art landscape.
The plurality of Bloc's projects is very much intentional – there's not one singular pursuit, but a multitude of things happening at once. The ongoing Test Bed series, for instance, is a curatorial platform that allows artists to put on a solo show, whilst experimenting with the parameters of what that means: "Test Bed is focused on providing artists with a publicly facing gallery space to experiment with new approaches, and techniques and to engage with audiences in new ways".
It also plays host to discussion sessions with incumbent artists, providing opportunities to get close to the work, whilst commissioning specific pieces allows artists from around the country to make an impact in a city other than their own. An extension of the gallery, meanwhile, the Bloc Billboard on the exterior of the site on Eyre Lane features commissions by contemporary artists and changes every couple of months (it also forms part of our Street Art Trail). This all sits alongside their activity as space-for-hire for local students and organisations.
Bloc Projects operates in an area that's become known for its art institutions and DIY spaces. As a long-standing resident of a part of town where the cogs of cultural renovation are beginning to turn, it's interesting to watch where they'll go next.

Golf is a popular activity in the Oro Valley, a growing area about 15 miles north of Tucson. There are private country clubs like the Oro Valley Country Club, resorts like the Golf Villas of Oro Valley, and rsidential golf communities like Stone Canyon. Public golf courses are also plentiful in the area. CNN/Money named Oro Valley #44 on its list of "Best 100 Places to Live and Launch". The 2009 population is over 40,000, and is a bit older than Arizona in general, although many younger families with children live here. The area has a vibrant economy with a combination of luxury resorts, retirement communities, and a strong biotech industry. Many folks live here only in winter. In addition to the beautiful scenery and lively environment, the Oro Valley offers superb recreational facilities - from golf and tennis to mountain biking and hiking in the nearby mountains.

CJ McCollum Takes on Jordan vs. LeBron on "Last Table"
Who's the greatest of all time? The debate rages on.
By Dave Deckard@DaveDeckard Jun 5, 2018, 1:00pm PDT
Share All sharing options for: CJ McCollum Takes on Jordan vs. LeBron on "Last Table"
Portland Trail Blazers guard CJ McCollum continues to make inroads into the world of sports media. McCollum appeared on "Last Table" with Jemelle Hill, Ebro Darden, NFL receiver Victor Cruz, and Rachel Demita to discuss the eternal "LeBron James vs. Michael Jordan" for Greatest of All Time debate.
McCollum acquitted himself well, mostly by calling out sketchy assertions from his co-conspirators. In the space of five minutes the table managed to dismiss the career of Scottie Pippen, forget Jordan's year spent playing de facto point guard while averaging 8 assists per game, and dis the city of Portland as, "Not L.A." But McCollum did get in a couple jabs of his own. When asked the GOAT question, he responded, "I think it's unfair to compare them and I think it should be 1a and 1b until the other one retires." Queried about LeBron winning another ring before he retires, CJ quipped, "When he comes to Portland, I definitely think it could happen."
Here's our own take on the Jordan vs. James question.

Pompeo accuses China of trying to spark unrest in the United States
Pompeo accuses Chinese government of infiltrating US college campuses
Secretary of State says Beijing wants to divert attention from questions about China's response to the outbreak of coronavirus
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo accused China of trying to provoke unrest in the United States through criticism of racism.
Pompeo, known for his hawkish stance on China, attacked Beijing in an unusual address to Wisconsin lawmakers.
The Chinese Communist Party "believes it can stifle calls from America to prosecute with racist voices," Pompeo told GOP lawmakers at the Madison State Capitol..
"The CCP wants to provoke the same feuds that we saw in Minneapolis, Portland and Kenosha," he added, naming cities where protests against racism and police brutality have taken place in recent months..
"It's disgusting. We cannot allow this to happen, "he said..
Pompeo cited a letter from a Chinese diplomat to a Wisconsin lawmaker as proof of China's intentions..
The letter said that Beijing "strongly opposes racial discrimination and xenophobia" against the Chinese community in the United States in connection with the coronavirus crisis.
"They want you to believe that America's righteous outrage over the CCP's response to the coronavirus outbreak has something to do with race relations," Pompeo said..
"But it's not like that. It has to do with citizens who are no longer with us, with children who cannot go back to school, and jobs that have been lost, "he objected..
"The CCP knows this," said the head of American diplomacy.
Pompeo noted that the United States does not intend to sit idly by in the face of Chinese intervention.
"We will not allow the CCP to interfere in our domestic politics," he said. "We have imposed restrictions on Chinese diplomats that are symmetrical to those faced by American diplomats inside China.".
"We want to do our best to protect our children from the malicious influence of the CCP," continued the Secretary of State. "We have officially declared the headquarters of the Confucius Institute in the United States a foreign mission and urged universities to hurry to close the doors to these programs.".

35-year-old Talal L. Aridi was indicted by a grand jury late last week on two counts of second degree attempt to lure or entice a child by various means and one count of fourth degree stalking.
On July 16th, Hamilton Township Police responded to the area of Pinehurst Avenue and Berry Drive for the report of a possible child luring incident. Authorities say a caller advised them that a silver Subaru Forrester, driven by a white male with dark black hair, approached an 11-year-old girl while she was walking down the street. The suspect asked the girl if she needed a ride and for her phone number, at which point she ran to a neighbor's house. While officers were responding to the incident, they located the suspect vehicle, which was being driven by 35-year-old Talal Aridi of Mays Landing.
Aridi is scheduled to be arraigned on February 20th and is being held in the Atlantic County Justice Facility.

I visited this beautiful, peaceful trail today for the first time. I started out at 11:45 this Sat and enjoyed every minute. The trail is quite and with relatively few people. Highly recommend!!
Wonderful Trail

Rode Matawan the Highlands this past Saturday. The trail was very busy but everyone was very courteous and obeyed the rules of the trail. The paved trail is having tree root problems other than that it was a very good ride. I don't recommend road bikes as there are a lot of street crossings on this end of the trail. The best part is between Atlantic Highlands and Highlands.
this is newly opened (was still closed when i checked in august at least) and paved and it is magical :) biked it today

You might say it was a bad day. I woke up later than I wanted, my work clothes in the dryer were tied in knots a nd my lunchbox broke. Later at work they gave me a route to drive that was already 20 minutes late! Even as I was trying to stay positive about my day this song which goes "you had a bad day" kept playing in my mind.
As I fought with myself over the temptation to be angry I suddenly realized if every day I say "I trust you God" and I say "I want your will to be done in my life" then how could it ever be a bad day? Isn't it His will no matter the circumstance?
Most of the time our automatic reaction to anything bad that happens is thinking, "What did I do to deserve this?" Which was exactly the way Job's friends saw things. Back in Job's day, it was believed that if you were always good you would be blessed, but if you sinned evil would happen to you. When Job lost all of his possessions and even his children everyone thought he had sinned. I suspect his wife did as well. She said to him in Job 2:9 after he still maintained his integrity, "…curse God and die." I can imagine she was blaming him for all the tragedy that had come upon them.
Even though this is how we all sometimes think I have found with God the opposite is true. In the Bible, I find God to be full of mercy and compassion. Look at the book of Jonah, God spared the entire town of Nineveh instead of punishing them for their wickedness.
When God told Jonah to prophesy against Nineveh, instead of going he ran away. In Jonah 4:2 he explains why, "And he prayed to the Lord and said, please Lord, was this not what I said while I was still in my own country? Therefore, in order to forestall this I fled to Tarshish, for I knew that Thou art a gracious and compassionate God, slow to anger and abundant in lovingkindness, and one who relents concerning calamity." Jonah understood that if he prophesied to them and they listened that God would have compassion and forgive them.
Since God is compassionate, why then does He allow us such bad days? He is showing us a different kind of compassion, the kind of compassion that leads us to His truth. When we experience situations beyond our control, what comes out of our mouth is a true testimony of what is in our heart, with each circumstance bringing out either selfishness and anger or love and patience. God uses these circumstances to test our character, not for His knowledge, but for us to see what's in our own heart.
God shows us compassion by not leaving us the same. Remember it is God's goal to make us Christ Like. We will never be to a point in which we do not need change in our life. Even though God said Job was blameless he still learned a lesson. Job Learned that God was much greater than he thought and it brought him to a deeper knowledge of God.
What can we learn from our bad days? To trust God, knowing that whether a day is good or bad is not determined upon our circumstances but on our attitude about those circumstances.

On November 2-3, the ISF Management Committee met in Heraklion (Crete), Greece. This meeting was the last one before the Executive Committee that will take place in Mumbai, India, in the month of December. The MC members were also received officially by the mayor of the city of Heraklion, Mr. Vasilis Labrinos.
The MC mainly discussed future ISF events: for what concerns WSCs, bids for all the 2019 events were confirmed. All the bidding committees will have the opportunity to present their candidature and bid books during the next Executive committee.
Regarding the Gymnasiade, the dates of the 2018 event in Morocco were approved: the 2018 Gymnasiade will take place on May 15-22. Furthermore, it was announced that four countries bid for the 2020 event: China PR, Chinese Taipei, Hungary and India. An ISF evaluation commission will visit the four countries between January and August 2017 and assess the bid progresses. A final decision on the host of the 2020 Gymnasiade will be taken in fall 2017, during the Executive Committee meeting taking place in Sardinia.
The fact that, for the first time, four countries have confirmed their interest in hosting the ISF mega-event is a proof of the progresses made by the Federation in the last years and indicates a growing global interest in youth- and school-sport.


My favorite song is "I Left My Heart In 1945" by: 0nlyHand on youtube. The song makes me feel sad, in a good way, it makes me feel sad for one of my favorite avengers, Captain America. The song talks about Steve rogers, Captain America, being alone in this new time because he was frozen in ice for over 70 years. It talks about him missing the time that he once knew but is now gone. One of my favorite lines is " If your sick of living once, then whats the point of doing all this twice?" Captain is such a amazing, kind hearted character.
My team pick Call Me Love by Madison Paradise Found, also know as my sister! Thats part of the reason that we picked it, but also because she is personally an amazing talented singer. She has a beautiful voice! Also, because we all go tin t he mood when we played it. We all started dancing and getting in the mood of the song. That was when we knew we were doing this song.
The visual story that my teams music video will tell is that there is a girl who is waiting for a boy to call her. She gets really anxious and cant wait any longer. The music video has some flash backs of when the boy and her first met. She liked him a lot and she's telling him that shell pick up the phone anytime.

Yonamine: Dipoló
November 12 - December 4, 2010
Yonamine's socially committed voice stands as a critical inquiry into the signs, ideas, and practices that constitute the ideological landscape of the global age. His output addresses the relationship between contemporary African iconography, colonial history, and identity politics. Bringing together his native country's mythologies and Western narratives, he examines both the traumatic experience of Angola's everyday life and the fragmented collective unconscious of a diasporic world.

The Abrons Arts Center is proud to present the exhibition Dipoló, the U.S. premiere of Angolan artist Yonamine, in the Charles E. Culpeper Gallery. Yonamine's socially committed voice stands as a critical inquiry into the signs, ideas, and practices that constitute the ideological landscape of the global age. His output addresses the relationship between contemporary African iconography, colonial history, and identity politics. Bringing together his native country's mythologies and Western narratives, he examines both the traumatic experience of Angola's everyday life and the fragmented collective unconscious of a diasporic world.
Katchokwe Style (2009) is one of Yonamine's most well-known works. He has covered the gallery floor with layers of sandbags, ranging in color from gold to brown, on which he has silkscreened portraits of different politicians, including George Bush and Samora Machel, and some Kinguilas, the women who exchange money in the streets). The installation poignantly evokes African and international events by replicating the setting of armed conflicts, of which the trench is a trademark, as well as the food supplies sent to African countries as humanitarian aid, two scenarios commonly associated with Africa that nevertheless result from past and present imperialist policies.
Yonamine has often employed the same silkscreening technique on newspaper pages, as is the case of Dipoló, the poster-like installation that he is showing in the Charles E. Culpeper Gallery's display cases. "Dipoló" is an expression that refers to a diplomatic bag, and that is used by locals as a by-word for drug-running. Appropriately, Yonamine has assembled an engaging pop-driven imagery comprising brands of consumer goods like "Omo" and popular figures such as Razbula, the nickname of a young man whose source of income is the recycling of a state-owned national daily. With this work, Yonamine represents the grassroots lifestyle of most Angolans, who have to continuously develop underground, community strategies in order to live in a post-conflict society like that of Angola.
Yonamine was born in Luanda, Angola, in 1975, and currently lives and works in Lisbon, Portugal. Recent solo exhibitions include a Project Room at Zona Maco Sur in Mexico City,Control Z (Cristina Guerra Contemporary Art, Lisbon, 2009), Tuga Sauve (3+1 Arte Contemporânea, Lisbon, 2008), and Necessitat de Veure (Display Lab, Tarragona, Spain, 2007). He has participated in several group exhibitions, including the 29th São Paulo Biennial (2010), the X Havana Biennial (2009), the Sharjah Biennial 9 (2009), Listen Darling… The World is Yours (Ellipse Foundation Art Centre, Cascais, Portugal, 2008), Check List Luanda Pop (African Pavilion, 52nd Venice Biennale, 2007) and the 1st Luanda Triennial (2006-07).
Dipoló is organized by Miguel Amado, the 2010-2011 AIRspace curator-in-residence at the Abrons Arts Center.


We were up at the crack of sparrows, well 6am and on the path again by 7, there was to be a lot of up today.... (I know that's hard to believe as its been such easy walking). The heat is becoming quite intense so we figured the earlier we get going the easier the climbs will be, as the big mountains keep us in cool shade for a few hours, until we go over the top of them.
The walk consisted of climbing up and over 2 cols, the first one ran up through the woods and then opened up to pasture land. Before climbing higher over a shale cliff and up onto the ridge of La Stele Valette. Where we saw 3 ( we believe golden eagles ) circling just below the ridge line in the thermals. They were obviously looking for hikers that had been blown off the top, as it was a tad breezy.
Down into another valley, this time quite barren and rocky, we met a French hiker coming the other way who had from what we could make out been attacked by one of the sheepdogs further down the valley. However he didn't appear to be bleeding to death and had walked up fine, so maybe just a little nip.
Jac is a bit wary of the sheepdogs, I worked this out by the way I was suddenly at the front, with no tiff for going downhill too fast, and she stuck remarkable close to me.
Down and down we went, keeping an eye out for sheepdogs, but by the time we got to the bottom the flock was halfway up the river miles away from us. So no need to deploy my Barbara Woodhouse voice, which was a shame.
The valley continued and we entered an area of according to the guidebook "Dolomitic limestone structures " it was very impressive and the area was beautiful with its lavender bushes and grasses.
It would have been more impressive with a cool beer in my hand and a sun shade, but these things are heavy to carry.
Eventually it became apparent we had to climb again, there is nothing worse than the realisation, that where you need to be, is up over a cliff, way above your head. Not the lovely meandering path down the valley you have been looking at all day.
The book said and I quote "a short ascent" yeah right, try 300 additional metres with 14kg on your back up a vertical path in 30 + temperatures, the only thing that was short about it was the lack of air entering my lungs.
However we got there, to our little camp in the woods after 7 hours walking and 1300 meters of ascent and 700 descent. One new blister for Jac and one twisted ankle for me, I wouldn't even mind on the ankle but I was stood still at the time!
Never trust a guidebook or a sign!
Today I honestly have no idea where the book and the signpost timings are based on. As they are certainly not based upon normal human speeds of walking. I also do not understand when you pass a signpost at the top of the mountain and it says 3 hours, how you can walk for 2 hours and then get to another signpost and it's only 15 mins different. Unless we have slipped into some other time dimension some one is having a laugh.
Conversations about getting a bus.... lots.
We have had several conversations about just getting on a bus and spending the last 2 weeks paddling in the sea and eating fresh fruit and vegetables, fortunately most of these conversations happen quite a long way from a bus stop, I'm not sure if they did occur lower down they would stay conversations.
But there are some spots that are better than others, tonight's spot for example is on the edge of some trees on quite a slope, we have pitched here because neither of us could face another 1000 meter descent, and it looked fairly flat. It is if one leg is shorter than the other.
There is also a lot of flies, flies are not nice, they are not pretty like butterflies or as entertaining as grasshoppers. They just annoy you and leap into your mug of tea.
We are going to bed earlier and earlier.
Tonight we are tucked up and it's only 8.30 pm.
Tonight fly invested forest pitch.

What you believe makes a big difference in your Christian life, especially as you follow Jesus. Make sure that you aren't being stunted in your spiritual growth by one of these errors.
The gift of suffering is given to us by a loving God who only wants our best and his glory. Here are a few reasons why seasons for suffering and loss are God's good gifts to his people.
If the temptations of the world and the sin within our own hearts isn't enough, Satan is also working overtime to see to our destruction, downfall, or weakening. Here are 9 ways he does so every day.
After Satan fell, H=he continues on his rampage against holiness. He wants our help; he wants co-conspirators. Here are 5 ways he has determined to ruin you.
As you grasp the importance of being intentional about the way you pursue Christ and help others to do the same, consider these principles before you begin a structured type of mentoring relationship.
When was the last time you trembled in the presence of God's holiness? The honest truth is that most of us have never truly trembled in the presence of God.
For years, when I thought about prayer, I mostly felt guilty for my lack of a robust prayer life. Then, everything changed when I discovered these 7 essential prayer tools.
Tattoos are more popular than ever...but should I get one if I'm a Christian?
Does God still speak to us today? If so, how? When? Where?
So this funny thing happens when you decide to really be you. Sometimes people don't like it.
It has been en vogue over the last few years for people to claim to love spirituality but reject religion. The impulse behind this sentiment has led to an unusual application toward Christianity. It surfaces when people say that they really do like Jesus but don't like the church.


The Trust, the Kaestner 1992 Family Trust, was established by Joseph Lee Rice III, with William B. Matteson as trustee. The situs of the trust was New York. The primary beneficiaries of the trust were the settlor's descendants (none of whom lived in North Carolina at the time of the trust's creation). In 2002, the original trust was divided into three separate trusts: one for each of the settlor's children, with each trust named for a child. At that time, one of the children, Kimberley Rice Kaestner, the beneficiary of the plaintiff Kimberley Rice Kaestner 1992 Family Trust, was a resident and domiciliary of North Carolina. Neither the original trustee nor his successor was a resident of North Carolina. Tax returns were filed in North Carolina on behalf of the Kimberley Rice Kaestner 1992 Family Trust for tax years 2005-2008 for income accumulated by the Trust but not distributed to a North Carolina beneficiary. In 2009, representatives of the Trust filed a claim for a refund of taxes paid to the Department of Revenue (the "Department") amounting to $1,303,172.00, for those same tax years.
"[J]ust as the state may tax the undistributed income of a trust based on the presence of the trustee in the state because it gives the trustee the protection and benefits of its laws; it may tax the same income based on the domicile of the sole noncontingent beneficiary because it gives her the same protections and benefits."
Kaestner, ___ N.C. App. at ___, 789 S.E.2d at 647 (Department's emphasis) (quoting Gavin, 249 Conn. at 204, 733 A.2d at 802 ). The superior court granted the Trust's motion for summary judgment and denied the Department's motion.
The North Carolina Court of Appeals affirmed, citing the unchallenged finding of fact that the Trust did not maintain a physical presence in North Carolina during the years in question: It never owned real property located in North Carolina and never directly had any North Carolina investments. Also, the principal place of the Trust's administration was not North Carolina and no Trust records were kept there.
"[W]e do not forget that the trust is an abstraction, . . . [and] the law has seen fit to deal with this abstraction for income tax purposes as a separate existence, making its own return under the hand of the fiduciary and claiming and receiving its own appropriate deductions."
The strong similarities between the facts in Brooke and the instant case cannot be ignored. While the trust in Brooke was a testamentary trust and the Trust here an inter vivos trust, both were created and governed by laws outside of the state assessing a tax upon the trust. The trustee for both trusts resided outside of the state seeking to tax the trust. The beneficiary of the trust who resided within the taxing state had no control over the trust during the period for which the tax was assessed. And, the trusts did not own property in the taxing state. In the instant case, the Trust's beneficiary did not receive a taxable distribution from the Trust during the years for which the Department has assessed a tax.
___ N.C. App. at ___, 789 S.E.2d at 650-51.
The Court in Gavin erroneously failed to consider that a trust has a legal existence apart from the beneficiary and that, consequently, for taxation to satisfy due process pursuant to Quill, the trust itself must have "some definite link, some minimum connection" with the taxing state by "purposefully avail[ing] itself of the benefits of an economic market" in that state. Quill, 504 U.S. [298,] 306-07, 112 S. Ct. [1904,] 1909-10 [(1992)]. . . .
. . . [W]e find McCulloch to be factually distinguished from the present case because the taxed entity in that case was both a beneficiary and a trustee of the trust and also resided in the taxing jurisdiction. Indeed, in holding that the taxes at issue did not violate due process, the Court in McCulloch particularly relied on the fact that the trustee was a domiciliary of the taxing jurisdiction.
The supreme court cited other cases in which the reasoning in Gavin and McCulloch was rejected. See Linn v. Dep't of Revenue, 2013 IL App (4th) 121055, 2 N.E.3d 1203, appeal dismissed, 22 N.E.3d 1165 (Ill. 2014); Fielding v. Comm'r of Revenue, No. 8911-R, 2017 WL 2484593 (Minn. T.C. filed May 31, 2017); Residuary Trust A v. Div. of Taxation, 27 N.J. Tax 68 (2013).

BBC Three Counties presenter blasts Herts Ad review of Harpenden panto
Ernie Almond will appear in Harpenden 2017 pantomime Dick Whittington - Credit: Archant
Ernie Almond is rubbish! Oh no he isn't! Oh yes he is!
What a shame Matt Adams, the editor of @hertsad has felt it necessary to be so unkind to my dear friend @Erniestheatre in his amateurish little review of the Harpenden panto. Ernie is a much loved and seasoned pro and deserves respect. The 3CR family do not respond well to bile!
— JVS (@jvsshow) December 12, 2017
A BBC Three Counties presenter launched a furious Twitter tirade after a radio colleague was criticised for his performance in this year's Harpenden panto.
Ernie Almond returned to the town's Public Halls to play the Sultan of Morocco in Act One Pantomines' production of Dick Whittington, his latest role in a long run of appearances.
But when Herts Ad group editor Matt Adams reviewed Saturday's matinee, he suggested Ernie should take a break from next year's show, as his performance "seemed forced and flat, lacking any real charm".
The comments provoked a late night Twitterstorm from Jonathan Vernon-Smith, who presents 3CR's JVS Show, after he tweeted: "What a shame Matt Adams has felt it necessary to be so unkind to my dear friend @Erniestheatre in his amateurish little review of the Harpenden panto. Ernie is a much loved and seasoned pro and deserves respect. The 3CR family do not respond well to bile!"
It's a pantomime that Ernie loves doing. He gives his all and looks forward to it. You have been rude, unkind and disrespectful when you probably have never set foot on a stage in your life. I think that deserves calling out! #whoreadsthehertsadanyway https://t.co/QiR1qTxmzy
Matt responded: "I'm sorry the 3CR team can't take criticism. I stand by my review, especially as I've seen him do much better in previous years."
But Jonathan hit back: "That man has done and achieved more in his life than you could ever hope to. How dare you belittle and embarrass him. I will never forget this!

"Don't expect to be a nasty, unkind ageist without being being challenged."
That man has done and achieved more in his life than you could ever hope to. How dare you belittle and embarrass him. I will never forget this!
He also criticised anyone who dared to defend the review or question whether he had seen the show, telling @BobBurrows1: "He was unnecessarily unkind. You are just as bad!"
Matt, who has reviewed the Harpenden panto for several years, responded to the furore: "I thought the BBC was all about freedom of speech, but obviously that doesn't apply when you dare to criticise one of their presenters.
"I've enjoyed Ernie's performances over the years, but he just didn't deliver the goods in Saturday's show. I thought I was being kind in my review, which could have been a lot worse and had nothing to do with his age.
"Unlike Ernie I don't claim to be an actor, but that doesn't mean I shouldn't be allowed to comment on shortcomings in his performance.

Adelaide's Central Market offers the flavors of South Australia
by Laurel Miller on Aug 25, 2010
"This is what Adelaideans do," Mark Gleeson explained to me, as we wandered through Adelaide's bustling Central Market. "The Market is a part of how we live, and has been since 1869." Gleeson, a retired chef and owner of the Providore, a market shop selling pastry and picnic items, also leads public market tours. I'd hit the market on previous visits to South Australia's charmingly provincial capital city. This time, however, I was his willing disciple as introduced me to vendors and gave me a detailed history of the state's ethnic culinary influences.
The indoor public market, which is owned by the city council, is far more than a tourist attraction. That much was apparent from my first visit, in 2005. It's always thronged with hungry locals shopping for weekend barbecues and beach picnics, sipping coffee, or savoring a bowl of Malaysian beef rendang.
As we walked, Gleeson told me, "Adelaideans are pretty savvy about food- we take an interest in how it's produced, where it's from. Knowing the vendors who make or sell it is part of the social fabric. We're a multi-cultural city." Unlike the rest of the continent, South Australia wasn't settled as a penal colony, and the market reflects that.
The first German immigrants, fleeing religious persecution in their homeland, arrived shortly after the colony was established in 1836, followed by Russians, Czechs, Poles, and Hungarians. The state (indeed, all of Australia) also has a considerable Mediterranean, Middle Eastern, and Asian population. This mash-up of ethnicities have had a significant impact upon the food of South Australia, but none more so than the Eastern Europeans (wine, beer, and charcuterie being the most obvious examples).
As we wandered the marketplace–a tantalizing cacophony of sights and smells–Gleeson brought me to some of his favorite shops so I could try some ethnic specialities. Because of him, I'm now into a half-decade-long affair with the delicate piroskhis at Taddy Kurgan. These ample, fried puffs of dough resemble yeasty, perfectly-made doughnuts, except they're stuffed with savory fillings of ground beef and rice or braised cabbage, or spinach and feta. The original shop owners emigrated from Kazakhstan. They recently sold to a Chinese couple, after training them very carefully in the art of piroshki and pelmeni-making.
Over at Sevenhill Fine Foods, Mr. Waldeck, a Polish refugee, sells traditional tastes of his homeland, including makowiec, a poppy seed bread, and regional charcuterie like mettwurst and lachshinken. Sun Mi runs a small stall offering her Korean take on made-to-order sushi, while Tony O'Connell of O'Connell's Quality Meats specializes in local product, such as lamb. O'Connell, 52, started in his family's shop at 15, and treats his customers like relatives. The first time I met him, in '05, he gently tucked a couple of extra-fatty lamb chops into the display case while we talked. "We've got a couple of older ladies who will be real happy with those, so we'll keep them," he murmured. You don't find personalized customer service like that too often these days.
At Wild Oz, you can buy native game such as emu, kangaroo, and wallaby, and feral (aka, "environmental nuisances") wild pig and goat. A number of shops sell regional and indigenous "bush tucker" ingredients such as lemon myrtle, wattleseed, and quandong jam, and flaky, red, Murray River salt. House of Organic sells pristine, sustainably-grown Australian produce: Mildura asparagus, Adelaide Hills beurre bosc pears, kipfler potatoes. Seafood shops display local Smoky Bay oysters, sweet, teal-hued, blue swimmer crabs, scallops in the shell glistening with neon-orange roe, octopus, and bugs, a delectable Australian slipper lobster.
At dough!, Turkish pide and Lebanese flatbread compete for space with quiche, pastry, and locally-made, whole, glaceed figs, clementines, and kumquats, and plump, dried muscatel grapes from Barossa Valley vineyards. Across the aisle, The Smelly Cheese Shop is one of Australia's finest specialty providores, stocked to capacity with imported and Australian artisan cheeses and housemade condiments such as skordalia, oil-packed, dried tomatoes, marinated bocconcini, and other picnic and cheeseboard items.
You need to fuel up for all of this browsing. Local's love "brekkie" at Zuma's, a coffee house serving savory muffins and egg dishes. The first place I always head, however, is Asian Gourmet. This unassuming, somewhat dumpy restaurant inside the market is famed for its laksa, a spicy, coconut milk-thickened noodle soup (the Singapore version with egg noodle is my pick). I've never had a better version, and I'm not ashamed to admit I actually plan my schedule around market hours, so I can get a daily (sometimes twice daily) fix.
Speaking of Asian food, the Market is conveniently located in Adelaide's thriving little Chinatown, also known as Gouger Street. It's lined with cheap and upscale Asian eats, most of which have sidewalk seating. I adore Wah Hing; besides consistently excellent, deceptively simple Chinese dishes, it's a sleek, lively place with a great regional wine list.
And that describes Adelaide in a nutshell: locals may refer to it as "just a big country town," but that doesn't do justice to this city of astonishing diversity and quality ethnic cuisine. The Central Market is a national treasure, and Adelaideans love of convivial, adventurous dining and their pride in regional products make it a must-visit on ever food-lover's itinerary.
For a more in-depth South Australian food experience, put Tasting Australia on your 2012 calendar. One of Australia's largest food and wine festivals, it's a week-long orgy of eating and drinking. It's held in Adelaide every other year.
The following recipe is about as simple as it gets, and is very reflective of the region. Haloumi, a mild, salty, fresh sheep's cheese traditionally from Cyprus, is artisanally produced on South Australia's Kangaroo Island. Fried haloumi is a beloved regional treat. Serve as an appetizer, as part of a salad, or as a dessert course, drizzled with honey.

Dust some slices of good-quality haloumi with flour. Fry quickly in olive oil until golden on both sides. Serve immediately with a squeeze of lemon and freshly ground black pepper.

What is Listing Agent Boot Camp?
as distinct and exclusive breakout sessions for this event!
The focus of this event is getting more LISTINGS and leveraging them fully for even more business!
Open to ALL Agents and Brokers!!
Did you ever hear the phrase, "You Are The Average Of The People You Surround Yourself With"? It's true. Club Wealth is comprised of agents who rank in the top 5% within their market. These Rockstars don't need more training, they need to "mastermind" with other agents who are on the same level. This is where some of the best ideas are shared and created.
In a mastermind, we break down into groups of 25 (max) and share ideas of what's working and not working in your markets. You and your fellow participants are able to pick topics and engage in round-table discussions on how to approach each of those topics. Bring your best secrets and more importantly a notepad to write down others. This is no holds barred hard-core masterminding at its best!
This is a conference where we will be sharing advanced business building strategies regardless of what stage in your career you are in. While some of the top agents are masterminding, some of our speakers will be teaching you some advanced real estate marketing strategies. We will show you exactly what it takes to make the cut for next year's event.
We have several amazing speakers who will be teaching you these advanced marketing strategies, as well as advanced team building and even expansion team building concepts and systems!
One of the things we look forward to once the "learning" is over, is the fun! Networking at these events is one the biggest takeaways participants RAVE about! We even have an EXCLUSIVE VIP Dinner at a surprise location!

We have power networking planned around lunch and some pretty awesome nightly events planned out thanks to your event sponsors. The most successful Realtors work VERY hard, and they PLAY EVEN HARDER!
The Real Estate industry has long lacked solid, impactful training for administrative team members.

Everything from how to answer the phone to listing marketing and more!
Join the Owners of the 2nd Fastest Growing Independent Brokerage on the Planet as they walk you through, step by step, how they recruit over 20 agents per MONTH, how they maintain a PAP (Per Agent Productivity) of over 10 units per year, per agent, and much more!!

Playboy's Miss May 2013
April showers bring May flowers, and we've got quite the lovely flower on this week's show - it's California Girl Kristen Nicole, who also happens to be Playboy's Miss May. We'll also talk pigskin with Pro Football Hall of Famer Raymond Berry, who was one of Johnny Unitas' go-to guys with the Baltimore Colts. Berry also coached the Patriots to s Superbowl appearance.

Sports and Torts: Miss May Kristen Nicole
We talk with this lovely California beauty about her love of the beach, tequila and her adventures in the Playboy Mansion's famous Grotto. AS you'll find out in this interview, she has a great personality in addition to her other attributes.
Sports and Torts: Hall of Famer Raymond Berry
Although he had just average speed, Berry developed 88 different moves to get open. He ran patterns within inches of how they were diagramed. In 1956, Johnny Unitas became the Colts' quarterback and Raymond was ready to put all his hours of practice to use. Together the two gave the Baltimore Colts one of the greatest pass-catch teams of all time. Three straight times Raymond led the league in receptions and caught a then-record 631 passes for 9,275 yards and 68 touchdowns in his 13-year career. We look back on that amazing career in this nearly one-hour interview.
Kristen Nicole
Kristen Nicole is the Playboy Playmate for May 2013."I absolutely love to travel and see the world," says Miss May Kristen Nicole. "Spain, Rome, Venice, St.-Tropez—I can never get enough." As grand as those destinations may be, sometimes the greatest escape is closer to home. "Mexico is my favorite getaway of all," says the statuesque California-born-and-bred beauty. "And it's right in my own backyard. From my airport to a Mexican beach is four hours." Naturally we wanted Kristen to be happy, glowing and hot as a chili pepper for her pictorial. So off we jetted to a beachfront villa in Punta Mita on the Pacific coast, just in time to celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Says Kristen, "I love Cinco de Mayo. Why? Because I love tequila. It's my drink of choice." When we got to the beach, Miss May didn't need any tequila to loosen up in front of the camera—no surprise since she's an accomplished bikini model. As for her Playmate status, she'll drink to that: down the hatch with a shot of Patrón.
Ambitions: Designing interiors for high-end homes, modeling and appreciating all life has to offer.
Turn-Ons: I love nothing more than when an attentive man is kissing my neck and breasts. Heaven!
Turnoffs: 1. Men who can't carry on a conversation. 2. Bad drivers have zero chance of getting into my pants; you've been warned! 3. Men who expect me to marry them for a shot of Patron
Quiet Time: Though I love to party and travel, I also have a calm homebody side. Reading by the fireplace, cooking a romantic dinner or just bedazzling whatever is in reach brings me true serenity.
My Philosophy: Hair and nails are a legitimate hobby.

Raymond Berry
ard work finally made Berry a star, but not until his third season of professional football. As an end at Southern Methodist University, he caught only 33 passes and scored 1 touchdown in 3 seasons. When he joined the Baltimore Colts in 1955, he was given little chance to make the team. However, coach "Weeb" Ewbank was impressed with Berry's practice habits and his good hands and kept him as a part-time player. In 1957, Berry became a starting end and led the NFL in reception yardage with 800 on 47 catches, scoring 6 touchdowns. When the Colts won the league's championship in 1958, Berry led in receptions with 56 and in touchdown receptions with 9, gaining 794 yards. He had an additional 12 catches for 194 yards and 1 touchdown in the Colts' celebrated 23-17 overtime victory over the New York Giants in the NFL title game. Berry led the league in 1959 with 74 receptions, 959 yards, and 14 touchdowns, and led in receptions with 74 and yards with 1,298 the following season before undergoing knee surgery. Because of the operation, he was used primarily as a possession receiver for the rest of his career. In 1961, he caught 75 passes, his career high, but gained only 873 yards and didn't score. Berry retired after catching only 11 passes in 1967. He held NFL records, since broken, with 631 receptions and 9,275 yards. He caught 68 touchdown passes. The slender, 6-foot-2, 187-pound Berry lacked speed, but he developed a variety of moves to get free from defenders and he virtually never dropped a pass he could get his hands on. He constantly worked on catching the ball before and after formal practice, even recruiting sportswriters, groundskeepers, and equipment managers to throw to him. Berry took over as head coach of the New England Patriots in 1984. The Patriots got into the playoffs as a wild-card team in 1985 and won three games on the road to reach the Super Bowl, where they were demolished 46-10 by the Chicago Bears. They won the AFC Eastern Division title in 1986 but lost to the Denver Broncos in the first round of the playoffs. Berry resigned during the 1989 season with a 51-41 record.
