South Norfolk is an established neighborhood in which builders are frequently building new home models on available empty lots.
To view 6 more pictures, interactive maps and the full, detailed description of the South Norfolk community, please Login.
Homebuyers can build their own new homes in South Norfolk. Or they can buy new construction properties currently on the market in this up-and-coming area. This transitional part of town continues to be revitalized and attract more homeowners who want to get on board with this urban movement. Located in a northern section of Chesapeake, VA, along the shores of the Elizabeth River, this neighborhood is a nice, centralized spot in Hampton Roads. Downtown Norfolk, interstates and military bases like Norfolk Naval Shipyard, Naval Medical Center Portsmouth and Naval Station Norfolk are all within close range.
New construction is becoming a common theme throughout this area. Newly built properties and shops are popping up to make South Norfolk into the place it was always meant to be. In the late 1960s, South Norfolk or SoNo, merged with the city of Chesapeake. Some feel tax dollars were spent developing newer places in the city instead of keeping them in this area, thus drying out area resources. Now, thanks to vigorous city revitalizers, this neighborhood is back and growing again. New homes are becoming a more familiar site and families are moving back.
When new construction properties are purchased here, it not only contributes to the urban redevelopment movement but it helps the earth as well. This is a community where Virginia residents don't have to rely on a car every single day. Children can walk to both Oscar Smith Middle School and Portlock Primary School. Make a morning complete with an order of some of Tidewater's best pancakes at Grandpa Joe's, a little diner down the street. Hop on those bikes and head over to Lakeside Park or Cascade Park for some fresh air before playing outside. New homes in South Norfolk are also nearby shopping at Village Square Shopping Center, Chesapeake Crossing Shopping Center, Bainbridge Marketplace and Southgate Plaza Shopping Center.
Don't think all good things happen in the suburbs. Just because new construction properties may seem more prevalent outside of the city doesn't mean you can't find a new home here. South Norfolk offers an urban vibe with a dash of yesteryear; come see how you fit in.
Our agents gladly offer FREE property tours of South Norfolk, Chesapeake and homebuyer consultations to all serious buyers.


Does anyone know why the Search Bar on the Map page of an organization's portal site would not work? My company's portal site is rather new and while exploring it today I tried to search for a city using the search bar, expecting the map to zoom to the location and present a call-out pop-up, but all I got was an error message telling me that the location could not be found. Any insight into this, or if someone knows a resource I could look at regarding this, would be appreciated. Thank you all.
Did you try using both geocoders when you searched for the city name? You should be able to click in the search bar and select which geocoder to use.
If you are an Administrator in your Portal, you can check to see what locator the Portal Organization is using by going to My Organization > Edit Settings > Utility Services. Your Portal instance may be using a custom locator.
I checked the geocoders and the ones that are used with the portal are US Street and Esri World Geocoder. Those should work, shouldn't they? Is there some configuration setting that I'm missing?
Excellent! Thank you. I am new to this and learning more every day. I found the problem. I did not know that I could toggle between the two locators in the search bar. I was able to see the differences in both. Thank you for your help.
Is the issue with a particular StringName aka CityName, or it's throwing error for any place-name?
It is returning that the location can not be found for specific addresses as well as cities.

Yesterday, DAVID AXELROD was the Signature Debate Speaker on "The Evolving Media and Political Landscape" – a Debate 2016 event at Hofstra University, which is hosting the first presidential debate between Hillary Clinton and Donald J. Trump later this month, on September 26.
Axelrod, a former senior advisor for President Obama and current senior political commentator for CNN, devoted time after his prepared remarks to answer questions from audience members.
My favorite Q&A exchange began when a student referred to Axelrod's advice to vote for one of the two major party candidates, rather than casting a statement vote for a candidate with no realistic chance of winning. The student then said he did not want to vote for either the Democrat or Republican nominee and indeed would vote for a 3rd party candidate.
In the 2000 presidential race in the pivotal state of Florida, Green Party nominee Ralph Nader received over 97,000 votes, and Democrat Al Gore received just 537 fewer votes than Republican George W Bush, who won the presidency.
Unswayed, the student once again said he'd be voting for a 3rd party candidate.
Axelrod began to say something, then abruptly stopped, glanced up and then back at the student, and asked if he was from New York. When the student said yes he was, Axelrod cheerfully told him to go and vote away. The student smiled as he returned to his seat; the audience clapped.
FYI from LI: The most recent Republican presidential candidate to win New York was Ronald Reagan in 1984.
Hofstra will be the first ever university to host three consecutive U.S. presidential debates.
ALL Hofstra Debate 2016 events, unless otherwise noted on Hofstra's site, are free and open to the public. RSVP is recommended.

More MDOT plow trucks adding green lights
KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — The southwest region of the Michigan Department of Transportation is making a change to improve safety in winter weather.
The southwest region, which covers Berrien, Branch, Calhoun, Cass, Kalamazoo, St. Joseph and Van Buren counties, will be adding green beacons to plow trucks.
In a release, MDOT Southwest Region said 71 of the region's 83 trucks have green and amber beacons.
The Kent County Road Commission installed green lights to its trucks last year following a testing period comparing the green lights to traditional ones.
Jerry Byrne, deputy managing director of operations for the Kent County road commission, said drivers were pretty much ignoring the crew's amber caution lights. Byrne said amber lights are used by so many different entities that motorists become numb to them and weren't slowing down for plow trucks.
The public can track MDOT plow trucks on its website by selecting the snowplows layer on the map legend.
EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Members of Michigan State's women's swimming and diving team are seeking an injunction to prevent the school from dropping the program.
Attorney Jill Zwagerman said a request for preliminary injunction was filed Friday.

KALAMAZOO, Mich. (WOOD) — Western Michigan University students are moving into the brand new $60 million Arcadia Flats dormitory with the start of the new semester.
The building off Stadium Drive is part of a broader plan to revitalize the Hilltop Village area on the south side of campus.

Republicans Now Are More Open to the Idea of Expanding Presidential Power
Neither party has an edge in favorability among the public
Most Americans continue to say that it would be "too risky" to give the nation's presidents more power, but the share expressing this opinion has declined since last year, with most of the change coming among Republicans.
Currently, 66% of the public says "it would be too risky to give U.S. presidents more power to deal directly with many of the country's problems." About three-in-ten adults (29%) offer the contrasting opinion that "problems could be dealt with more effectively if U.S. presidents didn't have to worry so much about Congress or the courts." In March 2018, 76% of the public said it would be too risky to give presidents more power.
The survey by Pew Research Center, conducted July 10-15 among 1,502 adults, finds that Republicans' views on this question have changed markedly since last year. About half of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents (51%) now say it would be too risky to give presidents more power, down from 70% last year.
The share of Republicans who say presidents could operate more effectively if they did not have to worry so much about Congress and the courts has increased 16 percentage points since then, from 27% to 43%.
Democrats' views are virtually unchanged over the past year: Currently, 82% say it would be too risky to give presidents more power, while just 16% say presidents could be more effective with less concern over Congress and the courts.
Opinions about presidential power shifted among members of both parties following Donald Trump's election. The share of Democrats saying it would be too risky to expand presidential power increased by more than 20 percentage points (from 66% in 2016 to 87% in 2017); Democrats' views have remained fairly steady since then. Republicans moved in the opposite direction; the share saying it would be too risky fell from 82% in 2016 to 65% in 2017. Their views remained at about that level in 2018 (70%) before declining again this year.
The survey also finds that the public's views of Congress and the political parties have changed modestly since last year: 36% have a favorable opinion of Congress, compared with 30% in March 2018. Americans now have identical opinions about the Republican and Democratic parties: 45% view each party favorably. These views have changed little since January, but Democrats held a 10-point edge over the GOP in public perception last September (53% to 43%).
Ideological differences among Republicans over giving presidents more power
Conservative Republicans have much more positive views of increased presidential power than a year ago. By contrast, opinions among moderate and liberal Republicans are virtually unchanged.
The share of conservative Republicans who say that presidents could deal with problems more effectively if they "didn't have to worry so much about Congress or the courts" has doubled since March 2018. Today, about half of conservative Republicans (52%) hold this view, compared with 26% a year ago.
Moderate and liberal Republicans' views on checks on presidential power have not shifted during this period. Currently, 27% of moderates and liberals say presidents would be more effective if they were less concerned about the courts and Congress, while a 68% majority say it would be too risky to give them more power.
Democrats are not ideologically divided on the question of expanding presidential power. Nearly equal majorities of liberal Democrats (84%) and moderate to conservative Democrats (81%) perceive the expansion of presidential power over the courts and Congress as risky.
Among the public overall, younger adults are more likely than older people to say that expanding presidential power would be risky. Nearly three-quarters (74%) of adults under 50 view an expansion of the president's power as too risky, compared with 58% of those 50 and older.
In addition, 80% of those with at least a four-year college degree say it would too risky to give presidents more power, while a smaller majority of those who have not completed college (60%) say this.
While age differences in these views are seen in both parties, they are more pronounced among Republicans than Democrats.
A majority of Republicans under age 50 (64%) say it would be too risky to give presidents more power to deal directly with problems; 38% of Republicans ages 50 and older say this. Sizable majorities of younger (86%) and older Democrats (78%) say it would be too risky to give presidents more power.
Among members of both parties, college graduates are more likely than those who have not completed college to say it would too risky to expand presidential power.
Favorability ratings of Congress and the parties
Just over a third of Americans (36%) say they have favorable view of Congress, while 59% view Congress unfavorably. Since 2017, congressional favorability has been somewhat higher than it had been in earlier in this decade.
Views of Congress have grown more positive among Democrats – and less positive among Republicans – since Democrats won control of the House of Representatives last November. Since March 2018, the share of Democrats and Democratic leaners with a favorable opinion of Congress has risen 19 percentage points from 24% to 43%. The share of Republicans with a favorable view of Congress has declined 10 points since then (37% to 27%).
Democratic favorability of Congress is now at its highest point since the party last held the House in 2010.
Currently, 45% of the public has a favorable opinion of the Republican Party, while 52% view the GOP unfavorably. Opinions about the Democratic Party are the same (45% favorable, 52% unfavorable).
These opinions are little changed since January, but last September, 53% Americans viewed the Democratic Party favorably, while fewer (43%) had a favorable impression of the Republican Party.

We're excited to continue our Nationals season with ACA Nationals in Forth Worth, TX. Below you will find many travel details and guidelines for the upcoming weekend. Please have this information handy to refer to throughout the weekend.
We will be staying at the Sheraton Arlington in Arlington, TX, which is shown on the map to the right.
The Event is at the Fort Worth Convention Center which is in downtown Fort Worth. It is 15 miles from the hotel, which will take the buses approximately 30 minutes to drive.
Open containers are not allowed on the bus. All drinks must have a lid.
Cheerleaders should wear comfortable clothes on the bus. They may wear slippers on the bus, but must have real shoes to change in to for lunch time.
The buses are equipped with TVs for movies. Please make sure your movies are age appropriate.
Cheerleaders are to ride their team buses. If you have cheerleaders on more than one team please inform the coach which bus your cheerleader will be riding if you want them to ride together. Cheerleaders 5th grade and under are required to have a parent with them on the bus.
Absolutely no switching buses halfway through a trip.
If you are going to make different arrangements to get home from Fort Worth, please inform the person who is in charge of your bus before Sunday night.
Cheerleaders must clean up after themselves. If a bus is left dirty, the team responsible will condition at practice in the future!
Do not leave items on the bus, as they may not be there on Sunday when you get back on.
Please see below for a list of things you'll need for this weekend. Athletes are required to be in the designated attire for that day, so it is important you pack all of the items on this list.
All cheerleaders should wear the outfits outlined for each day when not in competition uniform during our stay in Fort Worth. Do not leave your hotel room in a sports bra and spandex.
Cheerleaders are always allowed to be in warmup jackets and black pants or warmup pants when at competitions.
The team jersey and gray tank are items that every cheerleader must have. All cheerleaders were given one. If you lost yours you need to purchase a new one, because it is required attire for the weekend.
Cheerleaders must be dressed in gym shirt and black pants or warmup when not in uniform. No PJ pants, jeans or other street clothes!
Cheerleaders must be in full uniform for awards ceremonies. They will not be allowed on stage if they are not in full uniform.
Buses will leave from the Blue Valley Parking lot (same place as we met for Jamfest) at 9:00 a.m. Please load the buses by 8:45 a.m. We will leave promptly at 9:00, and will not wait for you if you're late.
The bus will only be stopping for cheerleaders to get off for food and drinks one time for lunch, so please make sure your cheerleader has snacks and drinks for the entire trip, as well as money for lunch when we stop. We will also be making a few "stretch" stops for the drivers, but cheerleaders will NOT be allowed off the bus during these stops. Make sure cheerleaders are in groups when they get off for lunch. Our lunch stop will be 45 minutes.
We are going to request the hotel pre-key rooms for parents on buses. All other parents will go to the front desk to check in upon their arrival at the hotel.
KC Cheer enforces a strict 10:00 curfew, as does the hotel. All cheerleaders must be in their assigned rooms by 10:00 p.m. with lights out by 10:30.
The KC Cheer staff and parents will be patrolling the hotel to enforce this curfew. There will be serious consequences for anyone found outside of their rooms past curfew. We have had to use these punishments before and have no problem using them again. You're here to do a job, and we need all athletes to be well-rested.
Fever Flash and Force will meet coaches in the hotel lobby at 9:00 a.m. to ride over to the convention center.
Your "meet the coach" time on the table below is the time you should meet once you get to the convention center (Fever will just meet in Hotel Lobby and Coaches will take them directly to the practice room from the bus).
Everyone else will meet in the hotel lobby with all of their things for the day at 10:00 a.m. Athletes should be wearing uniform top with Grey tank over and/or warmup jacket and black warmup pants.

After teams perform, they will meet with coaches to go over scoresheets and discuss Sunday. Everyone will try to meet their teams before leaving the convention center in the team room, unless they are one of the later teams. Team moms will communicate this information as it becomes available. If we can find a spot to have a quick meeting we will do so to inform everyone of the details for Sunday. Otherwise we will send an email to everyone with details about check out for Sunday.
Hotel checkout is at 11:00 am on Sunday morning.
Make sure your cheerleader takes ALL needed items with her in the morning on Sunday to the arenas. We will load the buses with all luggage on Sunday morning. You will not be able to get to this luggage until the end of the day on Sunday when we load the buses.
Fever, Flash and Force will meet in the hotel lobby at 8:00 a.m. dressed and ready to go. Everyone else will meet at 9:00 to load the busses to go watch these teams. We will not be coming back to the hotel, so busses need to be loaded at this time. We suggest you leave at least an hour to load the bus before 9:00, because elevators are slow. Do not attempt to bring everything downstairs to load the bus and meet your teams at 8:45. You will not have enough time.
Below is the performance schedule and awards schedule. Again, all team members must be at all team performances, even after their awards ceremonies are over.
We will leave after Fantasy's awards at 7:30. Cheerleaders should head directly for buses after Fantasy's awards. We will not be stopping on the way home for food, so please plan for this (drinks and snacks). If your cheerleader is not riding the bus home, please let your coach or team mom know before Sunday evening. Your cheerleader is still required to stay for all team performances even if he or she is not riding the bus home. Please understand this is expected of each cheerleader!


We all knew we were ending up here, right? I mean, we had a couple of hot takists who didn't put Liljegren at #1 this year, and that made this a modestly interesting exercise, but it's probably not shocking that the guy who slated to go first overall in the draft, caught mono, dropped in the rankings, and had a solid AHL rookie campaign to prove the world wrong would be our favourite.
Anyway, I want to thank everyone for joining us on this march through the rankings to this anti-climatic conclusion, and now we can get on with celebrating Liljegren. Future #1 RD.
I'm not going to shame anyone for liking Andreas Johnsson a lot. He's NHL ready and that's going to carry a lot of weight around here, and maybe a lot of us are overly excited because of Liljegren being a first round pick, who was slated to go even higher. That or the fact that he could potentially fill the organization's top need as a top pairing, right side defenseman.
Anyways, Liljegren was also number one last year, and it seems reasonable he'll be here again next year.
So the kid is 19, so we've got some time with him, right? RIGHT? STOP WRITING HIM IN ON YOUR LEAFS ROSTER!!! Okay. He's 19, he's from Sweden, like every other Leafs prospect we've talked about and seriously like. He's 6'0, 192 lbs, so he's got the size you'd expect a less physical defenseman to have. And did I mention HE SHOOTS RIGHT! AND IS A DEFENSEMAN!!!! Stop adding him to your roster.
So, yeah. Not a lot of goals or anything until he switched into his Team Sweden jersey, but assuming that Liljegren wasn't being given the green light to join every rush as rookie that seems reasonable. Liljegren's career numbers reflect the fact that he is going to be a pass first player, and given that the Marlies had no shortage of defensmen this year, power play time was far from a given.
So being in the blue isn't a bad thing, right? No need to panic. And the secondary assists number show that Liljegren has been starting a lot of offensive plays that have turned out favourably. He hasn't seen a lot of playing time, and it's good to have that perspective on this, but that being said, he also hasn't earned more either. He's 19, so I think we've got some time, but this might be a reasonable thing to consider if when you're wondering why Liljegren isn't on the Leafs in October.
Liljegren's Goals For % in 2017-18 was 64.29, and his GF% Rel was 11.41, which speaks to a couple of things. The first being that he did pretty darn good against competition, and secondly that he was also sheltered. Still, no one is faulting the kid for doing well in the situations he was played.
It might be a cop out, but there are bigger hurdles for young defensmen to make the NHL compared to forwards. Forwards have the luxury of learning NHL defensive zone play on the job, not so much for the guys who have defense in the name of their position. The fact that Liljegren made progress in this regard, and has been adding weight are encouraging takeaways from 2017-18.
The fact that Liljegren walked away from 2017-18 with a World Junior Silver Medal in addition to the Marlies Calder Cup ring is a nice little feather in his cap as well.
Has He Lived Up to Expectations?
The most reasonable comparison I can think of is probably Morgan Rielly. Obviously Rielly went a lot higher in the draft, but both were highly touted, undersized offensive defensemen that skate like the wind, and had their draft years derailed by injury or illness. Where Rielly has comfortably slid into the top pairing role over time with the Leafs, he was also rushed to the NHL out of necessity. There would have been riots at the Air Canada Centre if Randy Carlyle found another minute of icetime to give to Dion Phaneuf, and Morgan Rielly was how our sanity was preserved.
Liljegren has a bit more time to be brought along. He's not going to be a Leaf because all he has to do is beat out Paul Ranger for a job. He's going to need to establish himself ahead of what is a very clogged 4-6 D depth chart, and leap from into a starring role at some point.
"He's such a skilled player; his skill is definitely NHL-ready," Dermott continued. "His speed, he can skate like the wind. Good passer, good shooter, he can run a power play. And just keep getting stronger because those guys at the next level are fast, skilled, and strong.
I'd like to share Travis Dermott's excitement about Liljegren, and would love to see him make his NHL debut sooner rather than later, but I just can't see that happening. While there is a definite need for Liljegren, there is a need for him to be ready to play a significant role, not just steal an opportunity away from guys like Connor Carrick or Justin Holl, or usurp Nikita Zaitsev. He's got to be clearly better than them.
It seems more than likely that Liljegren will go start to finish in the AHL this season, possibly with another appearance at the World Juniors to break up the season. As crowded as the Marlies blueline remains, I wouldn't doubt that role that Liljegren plays on it will be very different. Last season came with the expectation that he build up strength, get used to playing in North America, and learn the system, this year we'll likely see Liljegren the powerplay quarterback more often. We'll see Liljegren against top competition, and we'll see a lot more green lights to join the rush.
I guess what I'm saying is that we'll have to pay attention to the Marlies for at least one more year.

The month of October is dedicated to recognizing Breast Cancer Awareness. Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women in the United States. About 40,460 women will die from the disease this year. Health centers have been able to help boost the odds of early breast cancer detection by providing affordable and accessible screenings, and launching education and outreach efforts to culturally diverse populations. Last year, Community Health Centers across the country provided nearly 300,000 mammograms to women, resulting in more than 20,000 abnormal findings. Syracuse Community Health Center (SCHC) in New York is a good example of how health centers go the extra mile to beat breast cancer among the medically underserved. The health center has scheduled a host of outreach events throughout the month of October with an emphasis on breast cancer education, preventive care and early detection, including participation in a symposium sponsored by the American Cancer Society and AstraZeneca, an annual Breast Cancer Walk (October 5), and hosting a Radiology Day on October 7th and 14th.

10 essential Salsoul Records gems Part 2… Like always, a selection is per definition limited. And God knows how there is plenty to find on the repertoire of this label. An imprint responsible for standards (still in use nowadays) that have changed the history of both music, DJing. And, as a result, clubbing!
From the commercialization of the first 12″ to the establishment of the remix. And, therefore, the one of the DJ's as potential post-producers which was far from being an evidence back then. With the best of it being that nothing got planned in advance.
As a matter of fact, it happened to be more of an accumulation of things. The latter getting its creators – Ken, Joe and Stan Cayre – as the initiators of a brand new episode in the maturation of music. This, with the launch of their Salsoul Records label back in 1974. As beautifully narrated on Disco-disco.com.
Better known as Bebu Silvetti or simply Silvetti… Argentinian pianist, composer, conductor, arranger and producer Juan Fernando Silvetti Adorno (Mar. 27, 1944 – Jul. 05, 2003). A man mostly remembered for this Disco instrumental piano driven classic. A cut which initially saw the light as 'Lluvia De Primavera' on his 1976. This as a part of his 'El Mundo Sin Palabras De Bebu Silvetti' album on Hispavox.
Steve Washington, Charles Carter, Buddy Hankerson, Curt Jones and Starleana Young created Aurra as spin-off from Dayton-based Funk group Slave. They first signed with Dream Records before switching to Salsoul Records. Gaining there their major recognition with gems such as 'Are You Single' and 'A Little Love'. But also 'Such A Feeling' and the aforementioned. Not to mention 'You And Me Tonight' which they released as a part of debut-album on Ten Records back in 1985.
Far from being as famous as most of his label mates' releases as a matter of fact… This firing Disco/Soul jam by the likes of Skip Mahoney, ironically surrounded by James Purdie and Matthew Allen, his former partners in crime under the Skip Mahoney & The Casuals guise who disbanded the year before this release, back in 1979.


Poland's latest amendments to its Draft Bill incorporates a major change to the date for submission of a country-by-country report (CbCR).
The original draft (refer to 28 May 2015 post) provided a 1/1/2016 effective date, with the CbCR due at the end of 2017 for 2016 data. However, the latest draft moves the effective date of the Bill to 1/1/2017, however it also states that the CbCR must be attached to the 2016 corporate income tax return, generally due 3 months after the end of the tax year.
The final version of the bill should be monitored closely, as it would accelerate submission of the CbCR to 31 March 2017 for 2016 activity, which is significantly earlier than the 31/12/2017 date (for calendar year taxpayers) envisioned by the OECD's BEPS Action 13 Discussion Draft.
The latest changes reflect the increasing emphasis on transparency and assessment of transfer pricing risk, a trend that is closely followed by all other countries in assessing their urgent need for transparency.
On 8 June 2015, the Presidency of the EU Council (Latvia) sent a report (The Report) to the Permanent Representatives Committee and the European Council. The Report sets out the current state, as well as a number of open issues and questions, in regard to the 18 March 2015 proposal for a Council Directive amending Directive 2011/16/EU regarding the mandatory automatic exchange of tax information.
That proposal, focusing on the exchange of advance cross-border tax rulings (ATRs) and Advance Pricing Arrangements (APAs), constitutes a key element of the Tax Transparency Package1 issued on the same date. The Tax Transparency Package further contained a proposal to repeal the Savings Directive as well as a Commission communication outlining a number of other initiatives to advance tax transparency.
Under the Tax Transparency Package proposal, Member States will be required to automatically exchange information on their ATRs and APAs, with the Commission proposing a strict timeline whereby every three months all Member States would be obliged to report to all other Member States and the Commission on the rulings they have issued during that period.
This report, sent via a secure email system, would contain a pre-defined, standard set of information. The recipient Member States would also have the right to request more detailed information on any of the documented rulings, where the information is relevant to the administration of the tax laws of the Member State. Each year, Member States would have to provide statistics to the Commission on the volume of information exchange on tax rulings.
In addition to this quarterly exchange of information, the proposal also refers to a retroactive application of ten years, whereby the above obligation is extended to rulings issued during the ten years prior to the date on which the proposed Directive takes effect, where such rulings are still valid on the date of entry into force of the Directive.
The instrument under which all such exchange would occur is Directive 2011/16/EU on Administrative Cooperation in the Field of Taxation (DAC).
The Report details that four meetings of the Working Party on Tax Questions have taken place (31 March, 30 April, 21 May and 9 June 2015) since the Tax Transparency Package was published, with the proposals being discussed in detail at each meeting. The Report further sets out a number of open issues and questions raised at those meetings. In the Report, the Presidency asks the Council to discuss these questions, in order to move the proposals forward, and to help the incoming Presidency to draft a compromise text for the DAC that could eventually be tabled for the political agreement of the Council in the autumn of 2015.
In regard to the scope of definitions of ATRs and APAs, the Report noted that the definitions proposed by the Commission are too broad for a number of Member States. While the objective of the Tax Transparency Package is to cover as wide a scope of ATRs and APAs as possible, some Member States raised concerns that too much room for interpretation (by introducing a distinction between binding and non-binding rulings, for example) would create uncertainty. The Presidency therefore deemed it appropriate, to narrow the scope to ATRs and APAs which are issued to specific taxpayers or groups of taxpayers, with the effect of exempting from automatic exchange the commentaries of tax laws of a general nature.
In terms of the proposal to require the exchange of ten years of ATRs and APAs, the report notes that many Member States believe that this requirement goes beyond what is reasonably required for reasonable tax transparency purposes, as well as creating an overly voluminous administrative burden. The report makes no reference to what time period may be more acceptable to those Member States.
On the starting date of the exchange of new rulings, many Member States argue that at least 12 months would be required to transpose any new rules into national legislation. Therefore, the Presidency deemed it appropriate to bind the starting date of mandatory exchange of information (which was originally set to be 1 January 2016) with the transposition deadline, which would be 12 months from entry into force of the new amending Directive.
The Report states that a number of Member States have expressed that further work on a Presidency compromise should take into account work conducted at the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) level, specifically within Action 5 of the Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project and at the Forum on Harmful Tax Practices (FHTP). Action 5 of the BEPS Action Plan calls for a framework for compulsory spontaneous information exchange on rulings to member and associate countries' preferential regimes, with a view to starting to apply the framework following the FHTP's Autumn 2015 meeting. The Report further notes that the OECD work currently seems to cover a narrower scope of ATRs and APAs than proposed by the Commission's proposals. This, in turn, leads the Presidency to aim at an agreement within the EU of a higher standard, in order not to undermine the objectives of the Commission proposal. In that regard, the Report notes that the standard form developed by the FHTP for rulings exchanged could also potentially be used for the automatic exchange of information within the EU, as well as providing inspiration around the potential "retroactivity" date used.
The Report notes that while all Member States support that APAs should fall under the scope of mandatory automatic exchange of information, a number of delegations believe it is important in certain cases to exclude from the proposed Directive the information exchanged with third countries, where such an APA was agreed to before the entry into force of the revised DAC.
However, a number of delegations believe it is important, for reasons of legal certainty and under a set of very strict conditions, to exclude from the proposed Directive the information exchanged with third countries when agreeing to bilateral or multilateral APAs with third countries, which have been agreed to before the entry into force of this Directive, under existing international treaties, where those treaties foresee stricter confidentiality standards than would be provided for in Directive 2011/16/EC, once this legislative proposal on automatic exchange of ATRs and APAs has been adopted.
That the Commission would, by way of the "comitology"2 procedure, develop a standard form and all other measures and practical arrangements that are required for the first stage of the automatic exchange of information.
The series of open issues and questions raised at the four successive meetings of the European Commission's Working Party on Tax Questions reflects the sensitive nature of the issue of tax rulings in Europe. With much debate and discussion due in the coming months in advance of a compromise text for the DAC, the business community should make all efforts to closely monitor developments.
1. See EY Global Tax Alert, European Commission presents a package of tax transparency measures, dated 19 March 2015.
2. Comitology is the process by which EU law is modified or adjusted and takes place within Comitology Committees chaired by the European Commission.
This is an important development, as the European Commissions's aggressive timetable and efforts to tackle tax abuse are ameliorated by practical and relevant concerns of practicality and usefulness.
A Board member may ask: How is the tax dept. monitoring daily developments of the OECD, BEPS Actions, European Commission, European Parliament, unilateral country actions, US Congress/Treasury, etc. to assess tax risk in this new era of transfer pricing interpretation?
For example, one University assigned this daily task to one individual who would report his findings for others to follow up. However, many times this is not a proactive process, especially as new OECD transfer pricing guidelines, and perceptions of what a fair tax should be, develop for implementation in the foreseeable future. If a tax department is fragmented for responsibilities of different areas (i.e. indirect tax, customs, direct tax, regional tax, country taxes, etc.) or regions, many people may be performing this function specifically to identify developments related to their narrow function.
Best Practice principles should be applied to allow time for planning, creating/revising new systems, interacting with other key stakeholders, etc. Different tactics may be employed, although avoiding duplication of efforts and integrated communication should be the focus to identify efficiencies in a tax risk framework. This need should be addressed in the short term, with long-term sustainability elements for new waves of ongoing actions by many interested parties.
My prior post of 30 May 2015 revealed that the European Commission would be developing a new Action Plan, the contents of which are hereby revealed.
Mandatory Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base (CCCTB), with the consolidation component included as a second step.
Enhance the EU's tax environment via cross-border loss offset and improving double taxation dispute resolution mechanisms.
Increased tax transparency via an EU-wide list of third country non-cooperative tax jurisdictions and assessing whether additional disclosure obligations of certain tax information should be introduced.
Providing EU Coordination Tools to improve Member States' tax audit coordination and reforming the Code of Conduct for Business Taxation and the Platform on Tax Good Governance.
The European Commission's Action Plan clearly reveals a large step away from the traditional arm's-length transfer pricing principle and toward an economic activity based source of taxation. This clear divergence, with the OECD and established legislation in most countries, sets the stage for a new evolution in transfer pricing and a hybrid of different approaches by various jurisdictions in the next several years.
Accordingly, the Action Plan is required reading to appreciate short and long-term objectives of the European Commission to unify the Member States.

Mitochondria — the tiny energy factories within your cells — generate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the energy currency your body needs to run its systems. Your mitochondria are also responsible for apoptosis (programmed cell death), and serve as important signaling molecules that help regulate your genetic expression. Hence, the state of your mitochondria plays a key role in health and disease.
Once your mitochondria become damaged and dysfunctional, your energy reserves decrease, leading to a wide variety of symptoms, some of the most common being headache and fatigue, and leaving you increasingly vulnerable to degenerative diseases such as cancer, heart disease, diabetes and neurodegenerative decay.
Unfortunately, mitochondrial damage is more the norm than the exception these days, thanks to the prevalence of processed food diets, inactivity, lack of sun exposure and excessive exposure to toxins and non-native electromagnetic fields from cellphones, routers, cellular towers and more. All of these factors contribute to mitochondrial dysfunction. On the upside, your body can regenerate and renew, regardless of your age — provided it has the proper fuel to do so.
A ketogenic diet — which is very low in net carbohydrates and high in healthy fats — is key for boosting mitochondrial function. Healthy fats also play an important role in maintaining your body's electrical system.
Its research team recorded the eating habits of 135,000 adults in 18 countries — including high-income, medium-income, and low-income nations — and followed the participants' health for more than seven years on average. Among the PURE participants, those with the highest intake of dietary fat (35 percent of daily calories) were 23 percent less likely to have died during the study period than those with the lowest fat intake (10 percent of calories).
The rates of various cardiovascular diseases were essentially the same across fat intake, while strokes were less common among those with a high fat intake. Upending conventional wisdom, the findings for carbohydrate intake went in the opposite direction. PURE participants with the highest carbohydrate intake (77 percent of daily calories) were 28 percent more likely to have died than those with the lowest carbohydrate intake (46 percent of calories).
In related news, another recent study found a reduced-sugar diet lowered liver fat by more than 20 percent in just nine days — a reduction co-author Susan Noworolski called "unprecedented." Processed fructose found in soda, fruit juices and processed food is a major contributor to nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), a condition affecting an increasing number of children. In the past two decades, NAFLD among children has more than doubled.
In June, the American Heart Association (AHA) shocked health conscious individuals around the world by declaring coconut oil dangerous and urging people to switch from butter to margarine to protect their heart health.  According to the AHA, replacing saturated fats with polyunsaturated fats such as margarine and vegetable oil might cut your heart disease risk by as much as 30 percent.
This is a remarkable statement when you consider that margarine and refined polyunsaturated vegetable oils  have been scientifically identified as the fats that actually DO cause heart disease and other health problems, whereas saturated fats have been exonerated. Vegetable oils are particularly hazardous in cooking, as they produce toxic oxidation products like cyclic aldehydes when heated.
They're also high in damaged omega-6 polyunsaturated fats. In large amounts, these fats cannot be burned for fuel. Instead, they're incorporated into cellular and mitochondrial membranes where they are highly susceptible to oxidative damage. In short, margarines and vegetable oils are a recipe for metabolic and mitochondrial dysfunction, and there's nothing heart healthy about that!
In fact, the AHA bases its ancient recommendation on decades' old studies. The four studies they decided to focus on all date back to the 1960s and early 1970s — the eras when the low-fat myth was born and grew to take hold.
Moreover, none of these four studies actually involved coconut oil, which means the AHA is flat out making false claims when it's identifying coconut oil as a dangerous fat. Nutritional science has made significant strides since the '70s, and studies have repeatedly refuted the idea that high-fat diets promote heart disease. The featured study above is just the latest in a long string of such studies.
Why Is the AHA Clinging to Outdated Science?
As for why the AHA would choose to ignore decades of scientific studies showing saturated fats have no impact on heart health is anyone's guess, but the timing of this bold vegetable oil promotion does coincide with news about a vaccine to lower cholesterol. [13,14] If people would simply eat healthy saturated fats like coconut oil and butter, there would be no need for a vaccine strategy.
More recently, Bayer, the owner of LibertyLink soybeans, pledged up to $500,000 to the AHA, perhaps encouraged by the group's continued support of soybean oil, by far the dominant ingredient in the "vegetable oil" consumed in America today.
Based on the evidence, there's no doubt in my mind that saturated fats are vitally important for optimal health. Most people need to eat more of it, not less. In my book, "Fat for Fuel," I expound on why these kinds of healthy fats are so important, and how implementing a cyclical ketogenic diet may help you address a wide array of ailments.
More than just a diet book, "Fat for Fuel" presents a complete Mitochondrial Metabolic Therapy (MMT) program, complemented by an online course created in collaboration with nutritionist Miriam Kalamian, who specializes in nutritional ketosis. The course, which consists of seven comprehensive lessons, teaches you the keys to fighting chronic disease and optimizing your health and longevity. If you or someone you love has cancer, it will also augment any oncological treatment you might be undergoing.
MMT merges decades of my own research with the latest science on mitochondrial health, all of which has been peer-reviewed. Worksheets, additional reading, meal planning resources and recipes, with guidelines on how to tailor the program to your unique physiology, are all included. You'll also learn a number of other non-diet related ways to boost your mitochondrial health.
In all my clinical experience, I have never seen a more effective intervention than multi-day fasts where the only thing you consume is water and mineral supplements, and no other food or drink. I had previously been opposed to fasting if one was already at an ideal body weight. However, I failed to realize that there is metabolic magic that simply won't occur in any other setting.
I now view this type of extreme fast as taking out the trash. It allows your body to seriously upregulate autophagy and mitophagy and remove most of the damaged senescent cells in your body. This, of course, would include premalignant cells. It is a magnificent way to help cancer-proof your body. It is also outstanding for helping you achieve optimal body weight, and it can improve your health and extend your lifespan.
I think I have stumbled on an easy way to do it with minimal discomfort. I have been doing 14- to 16-hour daily intermittent fasts for 18 months, but the last two months I increased that to 20- to 21-hour fasts. I don't think you need to do intermittent fasting for 18 months before trying water-only fasts, but I think a few months would radically decrease any negative side effects.
Interestingly, I experienced no hunger pains. I simply had no food cravings, which is extremely fascinating to me as most people who fast are really hungry on day two. I lost 10 pounds on the fast. My ketones were 5.1 and my blood sugar 45, which doubled the ketone/glucose index threshold Dr. Thomas Seyfried says is necessary to treat cancer. After the fast I feasted and had 130 grams of net carbs with sweet potatoes and fruits and extra protein.
I encourage you to consider a water-only fast. I must admit that I was afraid I would lose muscle mass, but that is not what happens when you do short day-long fasts. I actually stopped losing weight after day three as my thyroid throttled back. I know this because my lowest body temperature the last night of the fast was a full 2 degrees lower. I also had my lowest recorded heart rate that day.
I will be interviewing experts on fasting in the future to go into more detail of all the benefits that are provided, but until then, I would strongly encourage everyone to seriously consider increasing their daily intermittent fasting toward the 18- to 20-hour range so you will be able to painlessly do water fasting and then feast like a king afterward. This in an amazing ability to have, as it gives you enormous power over your environment when you won't have to worry about eating for four days if problems happen.
The MMT diet is a CYCLICAL or targeted ketogenic diet, high in healthy fats and fiber, low in net carbs with a moderate amount of protein. This targeted component is important, as long-term continuous ketosis has drawbacks that may actually undermine your health and longevity. One of the primary reasons to cycle in and out of ketosis is because the "metabolic magic" in the mitochondria actually occurs during the refeeding phase, not during the starvation phase.
When burned for fuel, dietary fat releases far fewer ROS and secondary free radicals than sugar. Ketones are also very effective histone deacetylase inhibitors that effectively reduce inflammatory responses. In fact, many drugs are being developed to address immune related inflammatory diseases that are HDAC inhibitors.
A safer and more rational strategy is to use a ketogenic diet, as it is one of the most effective ways to drive down your inflammation level through HDAC inhibition.
While all cells (including cancer cells) can use glucose for fuel, cancer cells lack the metabolic flexibility to use ketones, while regular cells thrive on these fats. Once your body enters a state of nutritional ketosis, cancer cells are more susceptible to being removed by your body through a process called autophagy. A cyclical ketogenic diet is a fundamental, essential tool that needs to be integrated in the management of nearly every cancer.
Ketones spare branched-chain amino acids, thereby promoting muscle mass.  However, make sure to implement cyclic ketosis. Chronic ketosis may eventually result in muscle loss as your body is impairing the mTOR pathway, which is important for anabolic growth. mTOR needs to be stimulated, just not consistently, as many people do with high protein diets.
One of the first things people really notice once they start burning fat for fuel is that any former "brain fog" lifts, and they can suddenly think very clearly. As mentioned earlier, ketones are a preferred fuel for your brain; hence, the improved mental clarity.
One of the reasons you can survive a long time without food is due to the process of ketosis, which spares protein breakdown.  A fairly consistent effect seen in people on a ketogenic diet is that blood levels of leucine and other important structural proteins go up, allowing these proteins to perform a number of important signaling functions.

Ogun PDP: Adebutu bounces back, Lawal's appeal dismissed
Ladipupo Adebutu
By Friday Olokor
A Federal High Court in Abuja on Thursday dismissed a suit filed by an aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party in Ogun State, Jimi Lawal, challenging the nomination of Oladipupo Adebutu as the party's governorship candidate for the 2023 elections.
The court held, among others, that Lawal failed to prove his claim that the PDP's governorship primary held on May 25, 2022, was not validly conducted.
Ogun PDP: S'Court dismisses suit to sack Adebutu
S'Court affirms Adebutu as Ogun PDP gov candidate
Ogun PDP: S'Court dismisses Jimi Lawal's appeal, others
Justice Inyang Ekwo, in a judgment held that Lawal failed to establish with credible evidence his claim that the register/list of voting delegates used during the governorship primary election was marked 'statutory delegates' and contained names of political appointees and other persons other than those of the ad-hoc delegates.
The judge held that Lawal, who scored zero votes in the primary election, was only playing the role of a spoiler, having defected from the All Progressives Congress shortly before the primary election.

Policy & Politics: January 2014 issue
February 3, 2014 policypressblogLeave a comment
The January 2014 issue of Policy & Politics is now available in print and online.
In this issue our authors consider nudge, multiculturalism, ethnic residential stability, lobbying, policy translation, human rights bodies, security regulation, and procurement. We take in policy issues including water and alcohol, and include conceptual debates around neo-liberalism and legitimation. The edition has an international flavour, with perspectives taking in the UK, Turkey, Ireland, and Vietnam, as well as considering ideas around issues of policy transfer between states. We have articles that are both empirically based and more theoretical contributions.
Will Leggett's article critiques nudge by drawing on literature including Foucault and other sociological perspectives on state-citizen relations. He suggests 'a more explicitly political, social-democratic model of the behaviour change state' is needed. Hannah Lewis and Gary Craig analyse the idea of multiculturalism by contrasting local initiatives and central discourses in the UK on the issue. In a related piece Katherine Farley and Tim Blackman consider ethnic residential segregation in England. They argue that, despite the political rhetoric around the 'problem' of segregation, there is scant evidence at neighbourhood level to support such a stance. Ben Hawkins and Chris Holden analyse the relationships between the alcohol industry and policy makers using qualitative research data. They seek to show how industry actors access and influence policy-makers. The way that ideas spread is discussed by Farhad Mukhtarov. Using the water industry, he moves on the policy transfer literature by introducing the notion of policy translation, and applies it to a case in Turkey. Sarah Spencer and Colin Harvey consider the performance of human rights and equality bodies in the UK and Ireland. By means of comparative analysis, they seek to explain the gap between expectations around and performance of these bodies. Sangeeta Khorana, William Kerr and Nishikant Mishra offer a study on Vietnam's participation in the World Trade Organization's Government Procurement Agreement. They suggest an inverse relationship between the costs and benefits of institutional reform to support liberalisation.
This issue is available on Ingenta. Look out for blog pieces on selected articles in the issue in the coming weeks.
