The story behind the Jean Leon winery, in Spain's Mediterranean Wine Region of Penedès, is literally something out of Hollywood. Born as Ceferino Carrión in Santander, Spain in 1928, Jean León was always ambitious. At 19, he left Spain to find his luck in Paris, New York and ultimately Hollywood. He founded the world famous California restaurant, "La Scala" in Beverly Hills. What many people don't know is that he started the restaurant in partnership with James Dean. The gourmet establishment became the haunt of many famous actors and performers of the time.
However, despite his huge success in America, Jean Leon still missed his native Spain. He decided to use his well-known name (respected in gastronomic and enological circles in the US) to return to Spain and create a world-class winery. That was back in 1963. His was one of the first wineries to pioneer the concept of a "single vineyard estate", virtually unheard of during the Franco years and religious cooperatives. This concept is called "Pago" and is still not the norm in Spain. Jean Leon also broke tradition by importing French grape varietals, Chardonnay, Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and Cabernet Franc. He believed that these grapes suited the balmy Mediterranean climate perfectly.
As they say, the proof is in the pudding. Jean Leon's wines today are some of the best in Spain. He has a joint partnership with another visionary wine personality, Miguel Torres. The estate is located in a truly privileged position, nestled at the top of a hill with sweeping views of the valley. The region of Penedès is a true delight for the wine tourist, close to the sea, full of medieval villages and boasting some of the best cuisine in Spain.

Social Media Campaign Adds Momentum to Electoral Boycott in Iran
Jun 1, 2021, 11:00 AM
inArticles
By Mahmoud Hakamian, Originally published in NCR-Iran.org, 1st June 2021
Sunday, Iranians inside and outside Iran participated in a social media campaign using the hashtag #BoycottIranShamElections. The hashtag received tens of thousands of impressions during the first day of a campaign that calls for the boycott of Iran's sham presidential election.
For years Iran's leading opposition group, the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK), has been the driving force to boycott the regime's farce elections. This year the internal network of the MEK, known as the Resistance Units, has led the campaign to boycott the sham elections inside Iran. The resistance units had been sending out footage of their activities promoting a national boycott. Posters of resistance leaders were shown hanging on highway signs and city walls. The resistance's call to boycott elections was shown graffitied on walls.
Most experts agree that the outcome is not in doubt since the regime's Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei has made his selection known. Thus the regime's establishment has lined up in support of the current head of the judiciary, Ebrahim Raisi.
Iranian regime's Guardian Council announced the final list of presidential candidates last week, leaving only Raisi and six other individuals out of nearly 600 who registered with the Interior Ministry.
In the interest of clearing the way for Raisi, the Guardian Council nullified the candidacies of high-profile figures like former Parliament Speaker Ali Larijani, whose demonstrated loyalty to the supreme leader would have otherwise secured him a position on the ballot. On Wednesday, NCRI Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Mohammad Mohaddessin explained his situation in terms of an effort by Khamenei to consolidate power in the face of unprecedented challenges stemming from economic collapse, international isolation, and escalating social unrest as embodied by three nationwide uprisings spanning the previous three years.
The first of these uprisings prompted Khamenei and others to acknowledge a fact they had long denied: that opposition to the theocratic system is organized, widespread, and is often an expression of support for the NCRI and the People's Mojahedin Organization of Iran (PMOI/MEK). In January 2018, Khamenei publicly stated that the MEK had "planned for months" to facilitate the anti-government protests that were then ongoing in more than 100 cities and towns. Accompanying fears of MEK's influence led authorities to severely crack down on another, larger uprising in November 2019. Some 1,500 peaceful protesters were killed in only days.
This crackdown did not, however, diminish popular support for the organized Resistance movement. Large-scale protests, complete with chants of "death to the dictator" and explicit calls for regime change, resumed less than two months after the November 2019 uprising was suppressed. And in February 2020, the MEK's influence was exhibited through the success of a boycott campaign accompanying parliamentary elections. Although regime authorities have a long history of exaggerating public engagement with the electoral process, official statistics confirmed that voter turnout at those elections was the lowest in the 40-year history of the Iranian regime.
The MEK and NCRI have promoted similar boycotts throughout that period, but their unique success last year was no doubt driven by the social effects of the prior uprisings as well as widespread activities of MEK's Resistance Units.
As the online calls for an electoral boycott gain momentum, they are sure to reinforce Iranian authorities' concern over the role of social media and the internet in political organizing. In April alone, MEK activists posted messages and staged demonstrations in at least 250 localities urging the Iranian people to "vote for regime change." In May, various groups of citizens endorsed the electoral boycott movement in the context of their own protests for economic or social justice.
In the NCRI press conference on Wednesday, Mohammad Mohaddessin said, "The nationwide call for the boycott of the sham election has gained momentum, and people are openly calling for the regime's overthrow." He cited this as evidence of a "looming nationwide uprising waiting in the wings," which will be "far more intense and widespread than in previous years."

Estonia celebrates the 82nd anniversary of the announcement of state independence on Feb. 24. Concerts, festivals and speeches will occur in the capital city throughout the day beginning at sunrise as the national flag is raised in the courtyard of the Toompea Castle.
The Estonian republic was founded in 1918 when the Paastekomitee (Salvation Committee) declared independence from Russia. The date was celebrated as a public holiday until the Soviet occupation in 1940. During the next 50 years, Feb. 24 was celebrated in Estonian communities and recognized abroad as the day of independence for the republic.
In 1989, the blue, black and white Estonian flag replaced the red flag of Soviet Estonia on Toompea.
This year, President Lennart Meri awarded 168 state decorations to people who have contributed to Estonian society and for their services to the state.
Recipients include men and women who have "shaped, preserved or chronicled our recent history, brave life-savers, the politician and philanthropists of our neighboring countries, the bearers and restorers of Estonian political ideals, scientists and physicians, schoolteachers and clergymen, helpers of our children and elderly people, preservers of nature, creators and scholars of art and culture," according to a statement from the president.
The awards were conferred on the eve of Independence Day. A complete list of recipients can be found on the president's Web site: www.president.ee.

Are you a sex addict?
By Dr Nick Knight 9 November 2018
It may not be an officially recognised condition, but for those suffering from sexual compulsion it is all too real. The GQ Doctor explains more...
Dear GQ Doctor, I'm worried I might be a sex addict. Anon, via email
Fifty Shades Of Grey has nothing on this, the ultimate grey area of health. And despite our former 15-year-old selves convinced of our sex-addict status in light of our over-developed unilateral wrist strength, sex addiction is not a recognised medical condition. The powers that be – psychiatrists, sexual health counsellors and sex therapists – continue to fail to reach consensus on what it is to be "addicted to sex" versus what it is to be "hypersexual, but not addicted". Yes, grey.
Yet while the globally acknowledged International Classification Of Disease (ICD) fails to have a section entitled "sexual addiction", it remains a commonly used term. And I don't use it disingenuously, either. After all, addictions share a common thread – compulsion to action, no matter the consequence. For sex addiction that may mean masturbating until you're red raw (and yet still press on), watching pornography for hours on end, paying for prostitutes, or have serial affairs – all with little pause. Ultimately, you no longer have any control, no matter the widening ripple-effect of negativity that comes from it.
And it's damaging; relationships are destroyed, careers flop and finances pushed into oblivion. These catastrophes then bulldozer your mental health with increased stress levels, low self-esteem and self-loathing, depression and anxiety. And because it's a compulsion, you still can't stop, despite the deeply frustrating self-awareness of the damage that it's causing. Higher rates of STIs and unplanned pregnancies will also ride these coattails. That's just you. If you have a partner, imagine how they feel? It's a primary school parade of newly learned adjectives; helpless, lost, angry, betrayed, confused and embarrassed.
So, where have we got to? Yes, so while you can't have a clinical diagnosis of sex addiction, it is generally accepted that you can have an uncontrollable sexual compulsion that breeds negative consequences. Of course, playing devil's advocate, the flipside to all this is that you may just be hypersexual, that you love sex and don't perceive there to be any negative consequences. So what's the harm? The debate here, I suppose, is how to separate a label of addiction with hyper-sexuality? Maybe it's in the ability to have a quality of life that remains unblemished?
Still, if you are concerned that your urges and actions are becoming unhealthy, here's a rough plan:
Identify your triggers for these unhealthy behaviours and plan how to combat them.
Try engaging in healthier and less destructive activities – get a healthier fixation of sorts.
Talk to your GP: we can help support these strategies and advise you on support groups.
Go direct to support groups like Sexual Addicts Anonymous (saauk.info) or Relate (relate.org.uk).
We are in a society where normality is undergoing a makeover. What was once sexually taboo, is now normal – and pornography, well, that's just pornography now, rather than the jaw-dropper it once was. Despite these changes around us, we haven't all evolved into a generation of sex addicts. Instead, I suspect we have simply become more liberal in how we access and enjoy our sexuality. Just remember, if those damaging signs begin to appear, that's the time to consider a little support.

I haven't released an update to Inkcut since 2010. I want to share some changes are coming to next version of Inkcut!
Here's a sneak preview of the live plotting feature that will be available!
It streams the data and allows you to pause and resume plotting. Since data is streamed at the speed of the cutter issues related to buffers overflowing on large jobs should be resolved!
I'm also working on a new website and support for Mac and Windows. I hope to have it released before the end of 2017 (Oct-Nov maybe?). So stay tuned!
Creating an Elastic IP An elastic IP allows you to switch EC2 instances seamlessly. If you upgrade, or setup a new instance and want to move over this is needed. Otherwise you have to repoint the DNS to the new instance manually every time. So this is not required, but recommended.
Configuring Namescheap DNS If you haven't already, login to the EC2 dashboard and select your instance. Note the new Public IP and Public DNS, we'll need these. Now we have tell Namescheap's DNS servers to point to our EC2 instance.


In short, the depreciation deduction each year is the same proportion of a property's basis as the property's income for the year is to its forecasted total income (FTI).
167-6(c)(1), the taxpayer recomputes depreciation for each year of the property's life in the year the lookback method is applied (the recomputation year).
Now schools will simply need to have a certain minimum percentage of their students (and of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic subgroups within each school) deemed "proficient" each year.
Each year since 1997, North Carolina has recognized the 25 elementary and middle schools in the state with the highest scores on the "growth composite," a measure reflecting the average gain in performance among students enrolled at a school, Winning schools receive financial awards.
About 8,000 depository institutions use the Fedwire securities transfer service to transfer each year approximately 13 million securities valued at more than $160 trillion.
Thus, the actual data for each year would be used in calculating the base period ratios and so long as the average increase per year during the preceding five years does not exceed 10 percent, the secondary limit should not apply.
If a shareholder makes a QEF election, it generally includes in income each year its pro-rata share of the PFIC's ordinary earnings and net capital gain.
263A-2(b) and -3(d) are not subject to this reasonableness requirement; otherwise, taxpayers would have to compute an absorption ratio for each year to test the "reasonableness" of the HAR, which would undermine the purpose, of the simplified methods.
Therefore, the IRS could not assess interest until October 15 of each year, when May used the funds that rightfully belonged to the government by applying the overpayment to the following year's estimated tax.
Once the historic absorption ratio is determined and elected, the taxpayer uses this ratio for five years without the need to recalculate UNICAP each year.
An increasing-annuity GRAT is structured as a term-certain GRAT with annuity payments that increase each year by a predetermined percentage (limited to 20% under Regs.
Exhibit 1, top right, shows an example of how NCRS deductions would be computed for $1,000 of five-year property if the inflation rate were 3% each year.
However, the corporation can elect to allocate items between the S and C short years by using the specific transactions in each year, based on the company's books and records and applying normal tax accounting rules.
Full adherence to the new law generally will require these "passthrough" entities to determine net income as of May 31, August 31 and December 31 of each year for their owners' estimated tax obligations using the same adjustments and computations required at year-end.
Based on this reapplication, the taxpayer determines the amount of taxable income (and AMT income) that would have been reported for each year prior to the filing year if the PCM had been applied on the basis of actual (rather than estimated) total contract price and costs in reporting income from contracts completed or adjusted in the filing year and in any preceding year.


Banking accounts are often accompanied by a few fees. Though they may seem like insignificant amounts, if you are not careful those small amounts can quickly add up. The best way to avoid the banking fees completely is to be aware of the fees and what you should do to evade them. Here is a list of the biggest banking fees and how they can be avoided.
If you try to make a transaction, but it gets rejected because you don't have enough to cover it, you can get tacked with a NSF fee and your transaction will get rejected. To avoid this fee, you will have to monitor your accounts to ensure that you do not go over. Check your balances regularly and keep and accurate checkbook.
Related to the NSF fee, you will be charged this fee each time your bank clears a transaction that results in a negative balance on your account. The average amount for the overdraft fee is around $35. You can decline any overdraft protection, but you will need to stay on top of your account balance. Another option is linking your savings account to your checking account. If you do make a purchase that you cannot cover, you bank will automatically pull the extra amount from your savings account. If you do choose this second route, be aware that there is usually a fee (though most likely lower than the overdraft fee), so check with your bank to see if they have one and how much it is.
Some banks will change you a service free, typically monthly or annually, simply because you hold an account at their financial institution. This fee can be added on to both checking and savings accounts. It can be taken directly out of your account, so if you aren't aware of when the fee is assessed, it could possible cause you to overdraft. To avoid the service fee, look around for a bank that offers free accounts. If there are none available to you, or if you wish to stick with your current bank, talk to a manager at your bank about getting the fee waived if you meet certain criteria, such as maintain a minimum balance of completing a certain number of transactions a month.
Believe it or not, some banks will charge you a fee if a check that someone else wrote you bounces. When the paying party's check bounces, the money gets taken back out of your account and then you may be charged a fee – all because of someone else's error. The best way to avoid this is to not accept a check from someone you don't know well enough to trust that they have the right amount of funds to cover the check. Instead, accept payments in the form of cash, PayPal, money orders or cashier's checks.
Some bank accounts require you to keep a minimum balance. It is most common with interest-bearing checking accounts and savings accounts. When you open a new account, ask the teller how much the fee is and what the specifics are. The fee is usually assessed in one of three situations: if your average monthly balance is below the minimum, if your end of the month balance is lower than the minimum or if your balance drops below the minimum at any time. If your bank goes by one of the first two, you can possibly avoid the fee even if you have gone below the minimum balance at some point.
This fee is taken when you close your account with the bank. Some banks will charge the same fee whether you have been with the bank a few months or for many years. On the other hand, there are some that will waive the fee as long as your account has been open for a certain amount of time, often over 90 days. When opening your account, be sure to ask if there is an account closing fee and what the terms are.
In order to avoid the account closing fee, you may be tempted to leave the account open and simply not use it. Unfortunately, this can make you subject to an inactivity fee. If you don't use your account for a specific amount of time, your bank may charge you monthly for it. Ask if you bank charges this fee, and then make sure you perform the minimum amount of transaction a month in order to avoid it.
If you tend to lose things, listen up. If you lose your debit card, you may have to pay a fee to get it replaced. If you want that new card rushed to you, you may have to pay extra. If you end up losing your card, there is no way around this fee, so try to keep tabs on your debit card. If you do happen to lose it, use other forms of payment until a new one gets to you in order to skip the rush fee.
If you make a foreign transaction using your credit or debit card, your bank may tack on a foreign transaction fee. You may even be assessed that fee if you purchase someone online from another country. Do your best to shop domestically to avoid this fee or apply for a cards with No Foreign Transaction Fee.
If you visit the ATM of another bank, be prepared to pay a fee of anywhere from $1 to $3 for each withdrawal. In addition, some banks will charge you for using a competitor's ATM, so you will actually be charged twice each time you withdraw money – once by the competitor ATM, and again by your bank. Avoid unnecessary ATM fees by always using your own bank's ATM. Also, look around for a bank that will reimburse you for your ATM fees.
When looking around for a bank, it's a good idea to shop around. Talk to the tellers, look into the different fees attached to the accounts and see which ones you can easily avoid before signing up for an account.

Probate fee increases abandoned
The planned reform of probate fees in England and Wales has been scrapped.
A year ago the government tabled proposals to increase the level of probate fees in England and Wales. The idea was to move from the current single fee approach (£155 via a solicitor, £215 otherwise) to a sliding scale, based on estate value. For estates valued at over
£2 million, the fee would have escalated to £6,000.
The proposals met with predictably heavy criticism, winning the distinction of being labelled a 'new death tax' in some parts of the press. Nevertheless, the government pushed ahead with draft legislation, aiming to launch the new fees from April 2019. One consequence was that solicitors, and others acting as executors, rushed to submit probate documentation ahead of the anticipated fee increase.
As a backlog built up at probate offices and HMRC, everything went strangely quiet at the Ministry of Justice (MoJ). For reasons which are not entirely clear, April passed without the final stage of the legislative process being triggered. This only encouraged more rushed submissions as the new deadline was unknown. The Law Society noted that many solicitors and their clients were reporting a wait of much longer than the six to eight weeks timescale claimed by the MoJ for probate grants. It did not help that, coincidentally, a new administrative system for probate was being rolled out in the first half of 2019.
What finally put an end to the proposals was the (second) prorogation of parliament, which meant that the legislation automatically lapsed. While it could have been reintroduced, Brexit and an impending election both provided reasons not to do so. Instead the MoJ will now undertake a wider review of court fees which will involve "small adjustments to cover costs".
If you think that the whole saga sounds eerily like something that has happened before, you are right. In 2016 even higher increases in probate fees were proposed (up to £20,000), only to be abandoned in May 2017, just as the following month's general election loomed into view.
Helpfully, the MoJ's announcement has indirectly highlighted the importance of having a Will and the time it can take to transform its contents into reality. If you don't have a Will – and over half of the adult population does not – your estate will be subject to a process very similar to probate, but with the added disadvantage that the laws of intestacy, rather than your intentions, determine its distribution. Creating a Will, and regularly reviewing it, is a bedrock of good financial planning.
