Haslers warn business owners and shareholders to take care over Entrepreneurs' Relief following high profile cases
June 28, 2019 BritDaily Brit News, Business, Politics
Chartered accountancy firm, Haslers, is calling on owners and shareholders to seek advice during the sale of their business, as failing to get Entrepreneurs' Relief could land them with a hefty bill.
Entrepreneurs' relief (ER) reduces the rate of capital gains tax (CGT) on disposals of certain business assets such as shares in a company from 20 per cent to 10 per cent.
However, Haslers has said that a number of recent cases have shown that HM Revenue & Customs are on the lookout to challenge transactions that do not fit within the rules.
The latest of these cases was P Hunt v HMRC, in which the FTT confirmed that when deciding whether a company is a personal company for entrepreneur's relief (ER) purposes, the nominal value of the issued shares needs to be considered.
The tribunal heard that Mr Hunt has sold his shareholding in Foviance. He argued that the business was his personal company and that he was, therefore, eligible for ER.
He held 5.94 per cent of the total number of issued shares, however, only 4.16 per cent of the nominal value of the total issued share capital belonged to him.
Under the current rules, a person must own 5 per cent of the total nominal value of a company's share capital and therefore Mr Hunt wasn't eligible for ER.
This decision has confirmed that the phrase 'issued share capital' refers to nominal values, and while that Mr Hunt fell within the purpose of the legislation, his was a marginal case that failed to satisfy the requirements for ER.
In another case, Stephen Warshaw v HMRC, the FTT allowed an appeal against £1,158,916 of CGT due after finding that cumulative compounding preference shares were ordinary shares for Entrepreneurs' Relief.
Prior to October 2018 an individual needed to hold at least 5 per cent of a company's ordinary share capital and voting rights for a company to be their "personal company" and for Entrepreneurs' relief (ER) to apply on a disposal of their shares.
In the case of Mr Warshaw, he owned ordinary shares, ordinary B shares and preference shares in a UK company which he sold for cash of £6,665,332 in 2013.
His total shareholding represented 5.77 per cent of the company. Excluding the preference shares it represented 3.5 per cent.
The FTT allowed the appeal, but Haslers have said that is another case that highlights the importance of checking share arrangements prior to a sale to ensure accessibility to ER.
Paul Reynolds, Tax Partner at Haslers Chartered Accountants, said: "As these cases illustrates, the rules around ER are extremely complex and there is a very real danger that shareholders and directors could miss out on the 10 per cent of CGT tax relief on offer via the scheme if they misunderstand the rules.
"In matters as significant as the sale of a business or major shareholding it really is imperative that individuals seek out specialist advice, ideally from a tax adviser who has experience of dealing with claims for ER.
"Failing to get this right is imperative as it could result in a tax bill that is twice as large and may make the sale uneconomical for some people."
Paul added that changes in the Finance Act 2019 muddied the water further in this area after making it a requirement for shareholders to now hold either an entitlement to at least 5 per cent of distributable profits and assets on a winding up, or to at least 5 per cent of proceeds on a sale of the share capital.

Is 'Ferguson effect' making Minneapolis less safe?

PlayListenIs 'Ferguson effect' making Minneapolis less safe?
Minneapolis police, including Sgt. Jeff Carter, left, searched a suspect for drugs Thursday, Mar. 12, 2015 in north Minneapolis.

Earlier this year, while patrolling the city's north side, Minneapolis police Sgt. Jeff Carter offered his take on the state of police community relations, several months after the fatal shooting of Michael Brown by a police officer in Ferguson, Mo.
"You tell me, how far away are we?" he asked. "If you get a guy involved in ... a shooting that's going to be controversial. How close are we to becoming the next Ferguson?"
At the time, Carter said the protests sparked by the shooting had no impact on how he and his colleagues were doing their jobs.
"I think it's pretty amazing, with all the anti-cop stuff that's going on in the country right now, how hard everybody still works," he said. "Everybody comes out here. They still do their jobs. They tend to business like professionals."
But some say officers in Minneapolis and other parts of the country have become more cautious and less aggressive.
It is called the Ferguson effect, named for the backlash to the police shooting. Some, including FBI Director James Comey, have said it has emboldened criminals and discouraged officers. It is a controversial premise rejected by many, including some law enforcement professionals.
Minneapolis Police Chief Janee Harteau said earlier this month the actions or inaction of officers are not responsible for the increase in violent crime in her city and that socio-economic disparities and access to firearms are most to blame.
But she conceded that it was possible Ferguson was having some effect.
"I have no doubt that the officers at times have questioned things and are a little more hesitant, certainly on some lower level (offenses) and some stops they would normally do," she said. "I don't want that to happen."
Data from the city of Minneapolis show police officers have made fewer traffic stops and arrests for lower level offenses like loitering and theft this year compared to the past two years. However, arrests for violent crimes are up from this time in 2014. According to the most recent statistics available, officers made fewer traffic stops and suspicious person stops than they did last year and in 2013.
Criticism of officers has led to an increase in violence, said Lt. Bob Kroll, president of the Police Officers Federation of Minneapolis.
Officers, he said, are reluctant to make traffic stops or search suspicious people because they're worried that if the situation requires the use of force, they may find themselves on a YouTube video or in the news. When police don't make those stops, they risk overlooking felons with outstanding warrants or who are carrying handguns, Kroll added.
"They're not taking as many guns off the street. And with that kind of beaten down mentality that the police are under in this day and age, people are more brazen about openly carrying guns," he said.
According to the most recent available police statistics, officers have taken slightly fewer guns off the street as they did in 2014 — 668 so far in 2015 compared to 685 in 2014. And so far this year, more than 250 people have been shot. That's more than the total number of shootings last year.
Nothing in the statistics draws a direct connection between protests and rising crime. And the level of violence in the city is far below that of the mid-1990s. In 1995, there were 97 homicides in Minneapolis. So far this year, there have been 49.
Throughout the year, police leaders have increased patrols in neighborhoods experiencing violent outbreaks. The department also stationed additional officers in north Minneapolis tasked exclusively with investigating shootings.
Police officials, however, say the protests and occupation outside the 4th Precinct following the police shooting death of Jamar Clark in November, did affect some very specific areas of crime fighting. Data show the number of traffic stops and suspicious person stops dropped dramatically, between 50 and 75 percent, during the nearly three-week occupation.
Minneapolis police start clearing a protest camp outside the city's 4th Precinct building early Thursday morning, Dec. 3, 2015.
Tim Nelson | MPR News
Police say officers spent more time making sure the precinct building was secure than patrolling neighborhoods. They say that also slowed police response to 911 calls.
Blaming protesters for the increase in crime doesn't make sense to people like Jason Sole, who's a member of the Minneapolis NAACP and a professor of law enforcement and criminal justice at Metropolitan State University.
Minneapolis cops are still acting aggressively in predominantly black neighborhoods, Sole said. "If they have pulled back, I would definitely wonder why that is," he added. "It's not because of our efforts to hold them accountable. But that's the way they continually try to shift the narrative."
Sole, who has conducted diversity training for numerous police departments around the country, says protesters don't want police to stop working. They want police to do their jobs without racial bias.
"I value great cops," he said. "It's the cops who abuse their badge, those are the ones we have issues with. We're not anti-cop, we're anti-police brutality."

Today's focus was on gratitude for myself. I was to choose 2 qualities I currently embrace, and 2 aspects of my future self I would like to have.
Quality #1 – My open mindedness. I have to admit, I used to be a very close minded, narrow minded person. Thankfully, through my journey to seek my highest potential, I have realized how deceptively limiting this actually is. "Belief in limits creates limited people" – Anthony Robbins. Being close minded is having limiting beliefs. I feel so much relief being open to all possibilities now, as I feel much less need to prove myself right to myself and others. I have more desire to appreciate all perspectives, and seek new ones, without desiring an absolute truth, because there isn't one, there's only your own. The difference that making this change in myself has made is enormous, and I can't thank myself enough for having the courage to make that change.
Quality #2 – My burning desire to grow. "If you're not growing, you're dying" – Anthony Robbins. When reflecting on my most memorable, and exciting times of my life, I was growing in some aspect of my life. When reflecting on my most dull times, I was not growing. Stagnation leads to a day-to-day regression. Every day you're the same as the day before, you have nothing more to offer than yesterday, you're one more day closer to death, with one day less to grow. I am at my peak when I am learning. I wake up with a purpose, a drive, and a burning desire to start my day.
Future Aspect #1 – I had a vision, and this is not the first time I have had it. This is a vision that keeps coming to me, it started recently while meditating. The aspect I saw in my future self was being a leader in the world of caregivers. I saw myself putting on a seminar for caregivers and writing a book. Given my experience as a caregiver, I have a soft spot for them. I've met people, and read on forums, and I see how helpless many of them are, with their lives crumbling around them, and nobody seems to be able to understand them, they feel alone. I want to change that.
Future Aspect #2 – I want freedom, financial freedom, professional freedom, and life freedom. I will book a trip for Allie and I to revisit Costa Rica, at the same resort we had our Honeymoon. I have always wanted to visit the Philippines and Hawaii, to see the lands Allie grew up in. We can spend as much time there as we desire.

(or just Kiyo) in Japanese folklore is a character in the story of Anchin and Kiyohime. In this story, she fell in love with a Buddhist monk named Anchin, but after her interest in the monk was rejected, she chased after him and transformed into a serpent in a rage, before killing him in a bell where he had hidden in the Dōjō-ji temple.

Overview

The so-called "Anchin-Kiyohime" legend may be designated by various other names, such as Hidaka River legend (Hidakagawa legend).

The theatrical versions, for which there are numerous playscripts, are collectively known as Dōjōji-mono.

Summary
The "Anchin-Kiyohime" legend can be summarized as follows:

The legend, connected with the founding of the Dōjō-ji temple in Kii Province (modern-day Wakayama Prefecture), relates how a priest named Anchin from Shirakawa in Ōshū province (present-day Shirakawa, Fukushima) making pilgrimage to the Kumano Shrine in southern Kii, lodged at the home of a  (steward of a shōen manor) of , where the manor official's daughter Kiyohime fell in love with the young monk.

In order to avoid her, he deceives her (with a false promise to return) and continues his journey. Kiyohime became furious by his rejection and pursued him in rage. At the edge of the , Anchin asked a ferryman to help him to cross the river, but told him not to let her cross with his boat. When Kiyohime saw that Anchin was escaping her, she jumped into the river and started to swim after him. While swimming in the torrent of the Hidaka river, she transformed into a serpent or dragon because of her rage. When Anchin saw her coming after him in her monstrous new form, he ran into the temple called Dōjō-ji. He asked the priests of Dōjō-ji for help and they hid him under the bonshō bell of the temple. However, the serpent smelled him hiding inside the bell and started to coil around it. She banged the bell loudly several times with her tail, then gave a great belch of fire so powerful that it melted the bell and killed Anchin.

Variants
, while in other versions Anchin resisted her attention from the start, and avoided her house on his return journey.

Although Hidaka River is perhaps more famed in connection with the legend, and sometimes just the scene of this river has been performed (rather than the entire play), some versions employ the  (which is further east and nearer the beginning of the journey) as the scene of the crossing.

Textual sources

Earliest sources
The story originally appeared in two collections of setsuwa or tales, Dainihonkoku hokekyō kenki () and Konjaku Monogatarishū ().

The text in the former work is written down in kanbun (Chinese text), while the text in the Konjaku Monogatarishū entitled "How a Monk of the Dōjōji in the Province of Kii copied the Lotus Sutra and Brought Salvation to Serpents" is of virtually identical content, only expanded into Japanese.

This old version tells the story of an unnamed young widow (or young unmarried house mistress) who desired the attention of an unnamed handsome monk travelling on a pilgrimage route to a Shugendō shrine in Kumano on the Kii Peninsula. The monk, in an attempt to avoid meeting her, chose a different route on the return journey, and the woman died in grief when she found out that he was deliberately avoiding her. After her death, a great serpent emerged from her bedchamber and it pursued the monk before killing him in a bell in the Dōjō-ji temple where he had hidden.

The old version also ends with an epilogue: Years later the monk appeared in a dream of a senior priest at this temple (Dōjō-ji), begging him to copy a chapter of the Lotus Sutra to release him and the serpent from their suffering in their rebirths, which was duly done and they were both reborn in separate heavens.

Names of Anchin and Kiyohime
Another setsuwa version is found in Genkō Shakusho , and here,  is named as the young monk.

The name Kiyohime did not appear in early versions of the tale, but was probably later derived from the name of the father or father-in-law, Seiji, which can also be read as Kiyotsugu. The name Kiyohime did not appear until the 18th century, in the narrative of a joruri (ballad drama) titled Dojo-ji genzai uroko (道成寺現在蛇鱗, The Snake Scales of Dojoji, A Modern Version) that was first performed in 1742.

Some later versions also used different names for Anchin and Kiyohime.

Picture scroll versions
A monogatari version of the story is told in an emaki (picture scroll) from the Muromachi period titled Dōjōji engi emaki ("Illustrated legend of Dōjōji", ). In this version, the woman in the tale was the daughter-in-law of the owner of a home in Manago in the Muro district named Steward of Seiji or Shōji Kiyotsugu. Seiji () or Kiyotsugu are variant readings of the same characters, and while "Shōji" is construable as a surname, it is also the title/position of a steward of the shōen manor, as already discussed.

Cultural references

The tale of Anchin and Kiyohime forms the basis of a collection of plays termed Dōjōji mono (Dōjō-ji Temple plays), depicting an event some years after the temple bell was destroyed. These plays include the Noh play Dōjōji and the Kabuki dance drama Musume Dōjōji.

Kiyohime appears in the mobile game Fate/Grand Order as both a Berserker, and Lancer class servant, both incarnations with a madness/insanity related skill.

She also appears in the Megami Tensei video game series as a demon.

In the video game For Honor, the Aramusha character has a customizable sword gear set named "Kiyohime's Embrace" complete with serpent scales on the blade hilts, and marks running down the blades as if they were partly melted.

In the mobile game onmyoji, Kiyohime is represented as a fire-spitting snake-like shikigami, one of the collectable spirits, and an occasional villain in the game's storyline.

In the anime series My-HiME, Kiyohime is the Child (a part-spiritual, part-mechanical creature) of Shizuru Fujino, one of the 12 HiMEs. In her final confrontation with fellow HiME Natsuki Kuga, with whom she is romantically obsessed, Shizuru drops a bell on her.

In the anime series Dragon Ball Z, a filler character named "Princess Snake" may be based on Kiyohime. She falls in love with Goku while the latter is travelling on the Snake Way. After Goku rejects her, she transforms into a giant fire-breathing snake, and tries to eat him.

Virginia photographer voluntarily dismisses lawsuit challenging state law on same-sex wedding photos
by: WAVY Web Staff
Posted: Oct 5, 2020 / 05:38 PM EDT
NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY ) — A Virginia photographer has voluntarily dismissed a lawsuit challenging Virginia's newly enacted state law that "forces" photographers to promote same-sex weddings.
Photographer and blogger Chris Herring initially filed the lawsuit late June challenging Gov. Ralph Northam's Virginia Values Act which protects LGBTQ Virginians against unfair treatment and harassment in housing practices, employment, public accommodations, and financial agreements, which went into effect early July.
The act threatens fines of up to $50,000 and then $100,000 per additional violation for any discriminatory acts "on the basis of sexual orientation and gender identity."
Herring said this prevented him from posting his religious reasons explaining why he only covers weddings between a man and a woman to the studio's website.
RELATED: Virginia photographer files lawsuit challenging state law on same-sex wedding photos
The complaint filed addresses in detail how the state law violates the First Amendment rights.
"Specifically, the lawsuit challenges Va. Code § 2.2-3904(B), which forces Herring to participate in and to create photographs and blogs promoting same-sex wedding ceremonies—all because he does the same to celebrate weddings between a man and a woman," said officials with Alliance Defending Freedom.
The complaint also addresses the number of photographers in Virginia who photograph same-sex weddings — Herring wants the same artistic freedoms.

"It isn't the state's job to tell me what I must capture on film or publish on my website. My religious beliefs influence every aspect of my life, including the stories I tell through my photography. If you're looking for someone to photograph a red-light district or promote drug tourism, I'm not your guy," said Herring.
After more than 4 months, Herring voluntarily dismissed the lawsuit.

If there is one thing Sandy demonstrated it is that you cannot make your DR plans too robust. There are always unplanned for eventualities when you approach your planning from the perspective of events that could occur.
In my opinion, a more comprehensive approach is to look at what you need to continue to operate and base your disaster planning on getting those critical facilities operational again as quickly as possible.
In New York City, there are a surprising number of data centres and two were taken out of action by Sandy. Internap was completely engulfed. In the basement the fuel pumps were knocked out by salt water and the fuel tank by water in the breather pipe.
Their header tank ran out of fuel after 12 hours, and they had to go offline for 12 hours while they waited for privately hired tankers to come in from 200 miles away. Even when the fuel arrived, they had to rig up a system to get the fuel upstairs into the header tank.
They then had to operate in this way on generator power for 10 days while they waited for mains power to be restored. Another company nearby, Peer1, had a similar problem and their employees were carrying fuel in buckets up 18 flights of stairs to keep their generator going.
These businesses were lucky to be able to get their hands on the fuel, given the critical shortages in supply. These examples show admirable commitment to getting services back on line, but also fundamental flaws in their basic infrastructure and recovery planning.
These examples, and many others, showed the danger of locating critical equipment in the basement, where it is often placed to protect from other potential risks. There isn't an ideal solution, but thorough DR planning should take more account of the risk of flooding, even if from the type of weather we have been experiencing here in the UK over the last week and earlier in the year. You don't need a full-blown hurricane to cause an outage!
You can read more about the impact of Hurricane Sandy on Internap and Peer1 and on its impact on other businesses such as Verizon.


As part of UCLA's continuing effort to make life in Los Angeles more affordable and convenient for its faculty and staff, and in support of its recruitment and retention efforts, a new initiative has been launched. TIE-INS (Together In Education In Neighborhood Schools) will enable a limited number of children of UCLA employees to attend three public schools near campus: Nora Sterry Elementary School, Emerson Middle School and University High School.
The initiative, which represents a collaboration between UCLA and the three schools, is also another way in which the University is expanding and strengthening its relationship with the Los Angeles community.
The TIE-INS program is scheduled to begin in September 2009, with as many as 75 openings for children at Nora Sterry Elementary School. Preference will be given to kindergartners and first graders. Their siblings—including those who would enroll in Emerson Middle School or University High School—would also be eligible to participate. All UCLA academic appointees and career (non-probationary) staff at any classification level are eligible to apply.
Detailed information about TIE-INS, Nora Sterry Elementary School and the application process for the program, are available in Related Information. Requests to participate, beginning this fall, must be submitted by 5 p.m. on Monday, June 1, 2009. In the event that employee interest exceeds spaces available, participants will be selected based on priorities indicated by Deans and Vice Chancellors.
