Q: How can I Access COM Port in JAVA I need to make an SMS transceiver that automatically inputs to a database every SMS that it receives. I am using a USB GSM Modem and able to use AT commands via HyperTerminal at COM Port 3.
Thanks.

A: The official API from sun/oracle for communication with serial/parallel ports is the Java Communication API ( www.oracle.com slash technetwork/java/index-jsp-141752.html ).
Be aware: this api just contains Java interfaces - no implementation classes. Sun/oracle suggests to use the rxtx library as implementation (licensed as LGPL).
I have been using the rxtx library successfully. The official webpage is not looking promising, but the implementation works fine for serial and parallel ports:
http://users.frii.com/jarvi/rxtx/

A: You can take a look at SMSLib. It is Java library for interacting with GSM Devices. It should save you some time.
If this is not what you are looking for, check here.

A: If you don't want use lib then write your code in cpp and use JNA or JNI to invoke the function. Third party libaray depends on hardware, I am not sure these will behave well.

T-Shirt Sucks CO2 From The Air
Most black ink is made of carbon that's terrible for the planet. Vollebak's black algae ink is the opposite.
We have all become aware of fashion's enormous carbon footprint but black clothing is particularly bad for the planet. Particularly as black is perhaps the most popular colour in fashion, appearing in everything from little black dresses to classic black tees.
The reality is that most black pigment comes from a material called carbon black which is made by incompletely burning heavy petroleum. This produces fine black particles, which are then used to do things like create printing inks, dye clothes, and reinforce tires. But manufacturing carbon black is bad for the planet. Excavating fossil fuels and burning them contributes to global warming.
Vollebak, an innovative UK clothing label, has succeeded in developing an eco-friendly solution to black clothing. It's partnered with a U.S. biomaterials company called Living Ink to create a pigment from algae used to produce the $110 Algae Black Shirt, which launches this week. In contrast to carbon black, algae is actually good for the environment because it absorbs carbon dioxide through photosynthesis while producing oxygen.
The hope is that the fashion industry can replace carbon black with black algae at scale, thus reducing the sector's enormous carbon footprint. "Algae is a fascinating material for many reasons, including that it stores carbon," says Steve Tidball, Vollebak's cofounder and CEO. "You would have to use it at a mass scale to store a lot of carbon, so for this project what we are most interested in is proof of concept."

Solomon "Solo" Bolden (died 1805), better known as the Black Cross, was a Templar agent active during the early 19th century.
The inquisitor of the Inner Sanctum like all the Black Crosses before him, Bolden travelled all around the world to keep an eye on the Grand Masters of the various Rites, to verify that they followed the Templar Code and if necessary to eradicate any corrupt Templars he could find.
In 1805, Bolden posed as a slaver sailing to Tripoli in order to buy slaves, while in fact he was planning to rescue his predecessor, Tavis Olier, who was believed to be dead while he was in fact kept prisoner in the city dungeon. During the crossing of the Mediterranean Sea, Bolden dispatched pirates sent after him by the Sultan Selim III and "befriended" Jan van der Graff, a Belgian agent of Napoleon Bonaparte supposedly sent to Tripoli to acquire precious fabrics. The two men made a pact; Bolden would protect van der Graff during his mission and the latter would use his contacts to help the Black Cross enter the palace.
Once in the port city of Derna, the two men rode camels to Tripoli, where they eventually met with van der Graff's contacts in a local tavern. There, Edmund, a deserter marine, and Ahkbar, a shady local, revealed to them the existence of a secret underground tunnel used by the Sultans to discreetly smuggle precious cargo into the palace. Following the departure of their companions, Bolden and van der Graff bonded over several drinks with the former trying to learn what "the diamond" mentioned by Edmund was, when they were interrupted by Edmund being shot by guards on the street.
Later, they entered the tunnel after van der Graff picked the gate's lock, but were confronted by several men waiting for them. During the brawl, Ahkbar, who was in fact an agent of the Sultan, stabbed Bolden in the back. With his dying breath, Bolden told van der Graff to find Tavis Olier, the Black Cross.
Eventually, van der Graff escaped his captivity three years later, after being trained and inducted into the Order by Tavis Olier during their imprisonment together. During his escape the Templar recovered the Koh-i-Noor before taking a boat for America, where he intended to inform Solomon's widow of her husband's fate. At some point, Jan van der Graff fathered a child with her, carrying on the name of the Boldens.
Solomon was a highly skilled swordsman, easily beheading the pirate captain sent to kill him as well as besting at least one of the Sultan's royal guards. His skill was noted by van der Graff who believed these skills would help him get into the palace. He also appeared to possess highly developed reflexes once catching a knife thrown at van der Graff mere inches from his face.


It's magical. I say stuff, sometimes even interesting and witty stuff, and no one hears me. Lacking an aural presence is apparently my superpower. Is that better or worse than being invisible, I wonder?
Sadly, my superpower does not extend to others. Can't push the mute button on the annoying, bitchy voice I live with.

Description: The Dream Healer is a story about disintegration of the psyche, a subject that preoccupied Dr. Carl Jung, self-professed scientist of the unconscious, as it continues to fascinate the psychiatric community. How medical teams reintegrate the personality is what distinguishes them one from another. The setting is the prestigious though highly controversial Burgholzli Clinic near Zurich in the early 20th century. The characters, and many events, are drawn from the novel Pilgrim by Timothy Findley, which is in turn based on actual incidents related in books by and about Carl Jung. In the opera, no-one is offstage: the patients, the staff and Carl and Emma Jung are always present, and each carries on his or her regular routines as others move the story ahead in solos or ensemble pieces. Life in the clinic-asylum proceeds, not stopping for a moment. The theme of disintegration weaves through many layers of the story. Carl Jung dreams of a character, Pilgrim, who has lived many lives through the centuries and wants to bring his existence to an end. Jung's preoccupation with this character overrides his relationship to his wife and family, to his patients, and to his colleagues. Pilgrim in fact becomes so real, the other characters regard him as one of themselves, as does Jung. Strange and wonderful characters inhabit the Clinic: a man who thinks he is a dog; a beautiful Russian Countess, once a famous ballerina, who thinks she comes from the moon; an inventor-emperor; people with strange visions and phobias; a couple who are gender-confused; and all overseen by a staff of doctors and therapists, some of whom were themselves once patients. The world here is topsy-turvy. Early in the opera, Pilgrim's companion, Lady Sibyl Quartermain, asks Jung about disintegration as a symptom of schizophrenia and whether reintegration of the fragments is possible. Replies Jung, "Sometimes we have to accept that things break into pieces." "And then…?" Sibyl asks. "'And then…' is what I do for a living," Jung answers. Jung's marital disintegration through the disruption of his dream world and intimate relationships with his patients-turned-colleagues is, in the end, re-collected, re-integrated, so that what were fragments are also reconnected, but in new ways. "And then…" becomes a journey to integrate the real with the unreal, the supposed with the unimaginable, so that new understandings of the human condition are possible. It is this inner journey of discovery that the life work of Carl Jung, the novel of Timothy Findley and this opera hold in common.

San Francisco will visit Toronto on Wednesday in a game that will have a decidedly Boston flavor about it.
When the Giants and Blue Jays close out their brief two-game interleague series Wednesday afternoon, San Francisco will have left-hander Drew Pomeranz (0-2, 4.82 ERA) on the mound against Toronto right-hander Clay Buchholz (0-0, 3.38).
The pitchers have 12 1/2 years of experience with the Red Sox between them, but played together at Fenway Park for just a half season, in 2016, after Pomeranz was traded from the San Diego Padres.

Dubbed a "comedian's comedian" by his peers, Dave Attell's sardonic wit made him famous in comedy clubs across the country. A New Yorker through and through, Attell rose to fame on the improv stage but hit the big time as host and creator of Comedy Central's Insomniac with Dave Attell. Named one of Entertainment Weekly magazine's 25 Funniest People in America, Attell also appeared as a commentator on The Daily Show with Jon Stewart and wrote for Saturday Night Live.
Attell made his television stand up debut in 1988 on VH1's Stand Up Spotlight hosted by Rosie O'Donnell. The show also featured appearances from up-and-coming comics including Jay Mohr, Margaret Cho, and Lewis Black. A bigger break for the comedian came however, in 1993, when he made his debut on the Late Show with David Letterman. After seeing him perform stand up on the late night talk show, producer Lorne Michaels approached Attell about writing and performing on Saturday Night Live. A no-brainer for any comic, Attell leaped at the chance, writing for the duration of the 1993-94 season and often appearing in sketches as well.
Following his Saturday Night Live stint, Attell was featured on two HBO specials, the 1995 Young Comedians Special, alongside fellow comedians Dave Chappelle, Anthony Clark, and Louis CK, and that same year, his first very own 60 minute special, HBO Comedy Showcase. Attell next appeared as the voice of Squiggly Dave on Comedy Central's popular animated series, Dr. Katz, Professional Therapist. Establishing a report with the network, Attell was later featured in an installment of Comedy Central Presents in 1999. Attell went on to work as a regular commentator on the satirical news series, The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. Arriving on the series in 1999, after the departure of previous host Craig Kilborn, Attell found himself yukking it up alongside fellow New York comedian, Jon Stewart, an old friend from his comedy club days. Working on the series for three years, Attell created a hilarious commentary piece called the "Ugly American," which was a big hit with viewers.
A self-proclaimed insomniac, Attell pitched a show idea to Comedy Central in 2001. A camera crew would follow him post comedy gig, as he hit the bars and clubs of each town on his comedy tour. The hit travelogue series Insomniac with Dave Attell was born and became a hit for Comedy Central. The series, which Attell described as "a cross between Girls Gone Wild and Cops," allowed the comedian to combine two of his favorite past times, booze and comedy. After four seasons on Insomniac with Dave Attell, Attell filmed a series of hour-long specials of the travel series, taking the show to Japan, England, Germany, and Brazil.
In 2003, Attell made regular appearances on the short-lived controversial show, Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn, alongside fellow comedians from Greenwich Village's Comedy Cellar club. As an established comedian, Attell hosted his own comedy special in 2005, Dave Attell's Insomniac Tour Featuring Sean Rouse, Greg Giraldo and Dane Cook. In 2006, Attell made an appearance on comedian Carlos Mencia's series, Mind of Mencia.

The world's first fully integrated value chain of liquefied natural gas has been officially inaugurated in the State of Qatar, and we were on hand to provide a suitably high-quality set for the attending VIP's. Contracted by Production Company WRG, our team were responsible for dressing an internal seating area, providing a large external pool area and an automated reveal.
The decorative pool we constructed surrounded three sides of the temporary dome that was built especially for the inauguration event and occupied an area of around 2,250m2. The shape of the pool was created via a timber and plywood structure and the use of a beautiful marble paint effect finish and vivid blue liner completed the look.
We completed extensive cladding of the 1000 seats inside the dome with a luxurious feel, including a wallpaper and high spec paint finish throughout. A number of large vinyl graphics were then applied.
On the main stage we supplied two 11m wide reveal screens, controlled by Qmotion, our renowned motion control system. The screens opened up to reveal the 'moment' video wall. This contained several apertures allowing further theatrical elements to be introduced into the proceedings.
Taking place at Ras Laffan Industrial City, a gas field north-east of the capital Doha, the inauguration was attended by HH the Amir Sheikh Hamad bin Khalifa Al Thani and witnessed by His Royal Highness The Duke of York, Prince Andrew.

Finland ends Denmark's hockey dream – for now
In their quarter-final match-up in Saint Petersburg on Thursday, Finland cruised comfortably past Denmark, recording their eighth win in as many matches as they bid for their first world title since 2011.

Finland outshot the Danes 11-4 in the opening period but scored only once at 14:29 through Minnesota Wild centre Mikael Granlund.
Jarno Koskiranta and Patrik Laine added a goal apiece in the second period, while Montreal Canadiens centre Lars Eller scored a powerplay goal for Denmark.
The Danes substituted their goalie for a sixth field player with 2:18 remaining and Jussi Jokinen took full advantage by scoring an empty-netter.
Granlund rounded off the scoring with his second of the match with 1:53 to go.
"We knew there were no free tickets to Moscow," Finland head coach Kari Jalonen said. "We had to pay the price. Denmark had a great tournament here. It was tough to break their defence. But I think we won deservedly today."
Despite the loss, Denmark still earned its best world championship result ever with an eighth-place finish and national coach Jan Karlsson said the Danes' best days on the ice are ahead of them.
"There is huge development potential with many of the players," he told Rtizau.
Defenseman Oliver Lauridsen agreed with his coach, saying that Denmark's strong showing at this years' IIHF world championships should encourage the club's many young players.
"The young players coming up need to know that we are closer to the top than we think. We have become a major ice hockey country and have the ability to make it to the quarter-finals if we play up to our abilities," he said.
In Thursday's other quarter-finals, reigning world champions Canada boosted their hopes of retaining their title as they thrashed Sweden 6-0, while the US beat Czech Republic 2-1 in a penalty shootout and Russia downed Germany 4-1.

Kiva! Seven unique Finland Swedish words the world needs to know
Sweden's Rasmus Dahlin first overall pick in NHL draft
Rasmus Dahlin became just the second Swedish-born player to be selected first overall in the NHL draft on Friday when the Buffalo Sabres used the top pick on the rangy teenage defenceman.

Dahlin, who plays for Frolunda HC in the Swedish league and was widely expected to be the first pick, follows Mats Sundin, who was the top choice of the Quebec Nordiques in 1989.
"I just want everything to start," Dahlin said. "I'm going to bring everything I have to that city. I'm super excited. I can't wait."
Russian forward Andrei Svechnikov went second to the Carolina Hurricanes and the Montreal Canadiens used the third pick to get Finnish centre Jesperi Kotkaniemi.
The draft had a decided Europe flavour as four of the top six players were Europeans. The first American was Brady Tkachuk who went to the Ottawa Senators at No. 4 and the Phoenix Coyotes took the first Canadian Barrett Hayton with the fifth pick.
The 18-year-old Dahlin said he was happy to call Buffalo home despite the fact they haven't had a winning season in the past seven seasons and have missed the playoffs eight years in a row.
"It's amazing to finally put on the Buffalo Sabres' jersey," Dahlin said. "I've been there twice. I love that city."
The six-foot-three, 185-pound Dahlin was honoured as the best defenceman at the 2018 world junior championship in Buffalo, registering six assists in seven games. He also played twice for Sweden as a 17-year-old at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.
At number six, the Detroit Red Wings chose the brash Halifax Mooseheads winger Filip Zadina who vowed to make teams that passed on him pay down the road.
"I'm telling my agent if they will pass on me, I will fill their net with the puck," the Czech Zadina said. "Yeah, it's just I want to prove to them that they have done a bad decision."
The lone trade of the day came before the draft when the Colorado Avalanche acquired backup goalie Philipp Grubauer and defenceman Brooks Orpik from the Stanley Cup champion Washington Capitals for the 47th pick. The Capitals were willing to get rid of Orpik and Grubauer so they could create salary cap space to sign free agents.

A call is merely the right—but not the obligation—to buy a stock at a specified price for a limited period of time. So a June call to buy APPLE at $140 per share gives the owner of the call the right to buy APPLE at a price of $140 per share gives the owner of the call the right to buy APPLE at a price of $140 per share until the call expires in June (the third Friday of each month is considered the expiration date for listed options). If at the expiration date APPLE stock is trading at $148, the call would be worth $8. This is because the right to buy stock at $140, when the stock can be immediately resold for $148, is worth $8. If, on the other hand, APPLE stock is trading at only $135 on "the call's expiration date, then the call expires worthless. This is because the right to buy stock at $140 (usually referred to as the strike or exercise price) isn't worth anything if everyone can just go out into the marketplace and purchase the same stock for $135. Well, that just about covers the basics—except there's one more step.
Pretty much whenever the stock market is open, the options market is also open. There aren't listed options available for every stock that trades, but options do trade on thousands of the largest companies. Therefore, if a stock has listed calls, you can usually buy and sell them during market hours up until their respective expiration date. In our example, the June $140 calls to buy APPLE stock were trading for months prior to their June expiration. We've already discussed what the call would be worth on its expiration date. The question is: What is the fair value of the call before the expiration date? To be more specific, how much should you pay for the calls if you buy them in April, approximately two months before they expire?
Let's assume that APPLE is trading at $148 in April, two months prior to June expiration. We already know that, if it were the third Friday in June, these APPLE calls would be worth $8. In April, however, these calls are worth more than $8. They're more likely to be trading closer to $11.375. Why? There are really two reasons. First, the owner of the calls doesn't have to lay out $140 for another two months, yet he is entitled to all of the stock's appreciation until June. Think about it. If APPLE stock were to gain another $10 per share by June expiration, then APPLE would be trading at $158. The owner of stock (since April) would have a gain of $10 on his $148 investment. On the other hand, if the APPLE June $140 calls could be purchased for only $8 in April, then the owner of an $8 call option would also make $10 in the same two-month period. (That's because, on the expiration date, the owner of the call could purchase stock at $140 and sell it for $158; after subtracting the $8 initial cost, the profit would be $10.) This result wouldn't be fair.
After all, the owner of the stock laid out an additional $ 140 for the same amount of profit. The owner of the call received the upside in APPLE's stock without having to invest an additional $140. To compensate for this, the amount of interest that could have been earned on the $140 for the two months until expiration should be reflected in the price of the call. It is. Assuming a 6-percent interest rate, the interest earned on $140 would be approximately $1.40 per share. So, in addition to what's known as the intrinsic value of the call—the amount by which the call is already in the money (in our example, the difference between the market price for APPLE of $148 and the exercise price of the call of $140, or $8)—an imputed interest rate for the amount of money the call buyer didn't have to lay out for the two months is also included in the call price. That's how we move from a call price of $8—the intrinsic value of the call—to approximately $9.40—the value of the call including the interest on the $140 the buyer of the call didn't have to lay out.
It's pretty obvious what happens to the poor owner of APPLE stock in this scenario. At a price of $140 at the June expiration date, the APPLE holder is down $8 from his April purchase price of $148. At a price of $130 in June, he's out $18; if APPLE's at $120 he's out $28; and at a price of $80—the loss gets really ugly—he's out $68 per share. See, there is an added benefit to owning the calls—it's the benefit of not losing any more money after the stock falls below the strike (or exercise) price of $140 per share. What's that worth? Well, in this case, it's probably worth about $2. So, if you pay the $2 in "protection money" as part of the purchase price of the calls, then your cost of $9.40 moves closer to the $11.375 price we talked about before. The $2 cost for assuming the risk below $140 is actually the same as the cost of the put option.
The bottom line is that buying calls is like borrowing money to buy stock, but with protection. The price of the call includes your borrowing costs and and the cost of your "protection"—so you're not getting anything for free, but you are leveraging your bet on the future performance of a particular stock. You are also limiting the amount you can lose on the bet to the price of the call.
That's why buying LEAPS, which are merely long-term options, can be an attractive way to trade your investment ideas.
While LEAPS don't have an unlimited life, they can usually be purchased up to two and a half years before they expire. This often gives ample opportunity for the stock market to recognize the results from an extraordinary corporate change (like a spinoff or restructuring) or a turnaround in fundamentals (like an earnings gain or the resolution of an isolated or one-time problem). Additionally, two and a half years is often enough time for many just plain cheap stocks either to be discovered or to regain popularity. Since current tax law favors holding investments for more than one year, buying LEAPS is also a way to receive long-term capital gains treatment while receiving the leverage benefits of an option investment.
In most cases, your decision to invest in LEAPS will simply be a by-product of your ongoing research efforts. Before you even begin thinking about LEAPS, a special situation or an undervalued stock will catch your attention as an attractive investment in its own right. Only after an investment passes this first hurdle will you bother to check whether a chosen investment situation has LEAPS available for trading. At the very least, being able to compare the risk/reward of a stock with the opportunities available through an investment in the related LEAPS will provide you with another good investment choice.
This is for education purposes only, past performance is never indicative of future results, this is not advice, nor am I or OP responsible for anything you do in your own account so don't be dumb because it's on you. This is a social network for traders not Goldman Sachs.


In Joe Vitale's book "Zero Limits" he describes the teachings of Ho 'oponopono, an ancient Hawaiian healing technique. It is simple, yet profound. I often recommend it to my friends and clients.
Two years ago, I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients–without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.
When I first heard this story, I thought it was an urban legend. How could anyone heal anyone else by healing himself? How could even the best self-improvement master cure the criminally insane?
It didn't make any sense. It wasn't logical, so I dismissed the story. However, I heard it again a year later. I heard that the therapist had used a Hawaiian healing process called ho 'oponopono. I had never heard of it, yet I couldn't let it leave my mind. If the story was at all true, I had to know more.
I had always understood "total responsibility" to mean that I am responsible for what I think and do. Beyond that, it's out of my hands. I think that most people think of total responsibility that way. We're responsible for what we do, not what anyone else does. The Hawaiian therapist who healed those mentally ill people would teach me an advanced new perspective about total responsibility.
"I was simply healing the part of me that created them," he said.
Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for your life means that everything in your life – simply because it is in your life–is your responsibility. In a literal sense, the entire world is your creation.
Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is in your life.
This means that terrorist activity, the president, the economy–anything you experience and don't like–is up for you to heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to change them, you have to change you.
I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live. Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr. Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono means loving yourself. If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone–even a mentally ill criminal–you do it by healing you.
I asked Dr. Len how he went about healing himself. What was he doing, exactly, when he looked at those patients' files?
"I just kept saying, 'I'm sorry' and 'I love you' over and over again," he explained.
Turns out that loving yourself is the greatest way to improve yourself, and as you improve yourself, your improve your world. Let me give you a quick example of how this works: one day, someone sent me an email that upset me. In the past, I would have handled it by working on my emotional hot buttons or by trying to reason with the person who sent the nasty message. This time, I decided to try Dr. Len's method. I kept silently saying, "I'm sorry" and "I love you," I didn't say it to anyone in particular. I was simply evoking the spirit of love to heal within me what was creating the outer circumstance.
Within an hour I got an e-mail from the same person. He apologized for his previous message. Keep in mind that I didn't take any outward action to get that apology. I didn't even write him back. Yet, by saying "I love you," I somehow healed within me what was creating him.
I later attended a ho 'oponopono workshop run by Dr. Len. He's now 70 years old, considered a grandfatherly shaman, and is somewhat reclusive. He praised my book, The Attractor Factor. He told me that as I improve myself, my book's vibration will raise, and everyone will feel it when they read it. In short, as I improve, my readers will improve.
"What about the books that are already sold and out there?" I asked.
In short, there is no out there.
It would take a whole book to explain this advanced technique with the depth it deserves. Suffice it to say that whenever you want to improve anything in your life, there's only one place to look: inside you.
If we can accept that we are the sum total of all past thoughts, emotions, words, deeds and actions and that our present lives and choices are colored or shaded by this memory bank of the past, then we begin to see how a process of correcting or setting aright can change our lives, our families and our society.


ISLAMABAD: The Federal Board of Revenue has introduced amendments in the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 through Finance Act, 2018.
The federal government reduced relief on income tax range for the salaried persons through Finance Act, 2018. Prior to the Finance Act, the minimum threshold for taxable income was Rs400,000 for individuals and tax rates for non-salaried and salaried individuals were separately provided in paragraph(s) (1) and (IA) respectively in Division I, Part-l of the First Schedule.
For Rs0.8 million to Rs 1.2 million rupees yearly income, Rs2,000 tax will be applied. Meanwhile, for those earning from Rs1.2 million to 2.4 million rupees, five per cent income tax will be applied.
According to the new amendment, for those earning Rs2.4 million to Rs4.8 million, tax will be Rs60,000.
For those earning more than Rs4.8 million yearly, will have to pay a fixed tax of Rs300,000 and additional of 15 per cent tax money.
The rates of tax for Association of Persons have also been reduced. Prior to the Finance Act, 2018 the tax rates applicable to Association of Persons (AOP's) and non-salaried individuals were clubbed together and comprised seven progressive tax slabs as provided in paragraph (I), Division I, Part I of the First Schedule. Through the Finance Act, 2018, separate tax rates have been provided for AOP's in paragraph (2), Division I, Part I of the First Schedule.
Further amendments include reduction in tax rate applicable to companies, reduction in tax rate applicable to "small companies", successive reduction and elimination of Super Tax, reduction in tax rate on undistributed profit and non-recognition of capital gain in the case of a gift to be restricted to relatives.
Prior to the Finance Act, 2018, sub-section (4) of section 57 and sub-section (5) of section 59A provided that where business loss included deductions allowed under sections 22, 23, 23A, 23B and 24 that had not been set off against income, the amount not set off shall be added to the deductions allowed under those sections in the following tax year, and so on until completely set off. Through the Finance Act, 2018, sub-section (4) of section 57 and sub-section (5) of section 59A have been substituted and now the loss attributable to deductions allowed under sections 22, 23, 23A, 23B and 24 that has not been set off against income shall be set off against 50 percent of 4 the person's balance income from business after setting off the business loss under sub-section (1) of section 57. However, the condition of set off against 50% shall not apply if the taxable income for the year is less than Rs.10 million.
Meanwhile, the FBR issued Income Tax Circular No. 03 saying that prior to the Finance Act, 2018 the dividend received by a company from a collective investment scheme, a (Real Estate Investment Trust) REIT scheme or a mutual fund (except a stock fund) was subjected to tax at 25 percent for the tax year 201 5 onwards under section 5 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001.
In order to incentivize investment by companies in collective investment schemes, REIT schemes and mutual funds, an amendment has been made in the second proviso to Division Ill of Part I of the First Schedule to the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 whereby the rate of tax has been reduced from 25 percent to 15 percent in respect of dividend received by a company from a collective investment scheme, REIT scheme or a mutual fund (other than a stock fund).
Similarly, in consonance with the reduction in the rate of tax on dividend received by a company from a collective investment scheme, a REIT scheme or a mutual fund under section 5 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 the tax required to be deducted under section 150 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 by a collective investment scheme, REIT scheme or mutual fund upon payment of dividend to a company has also been reduced from 25 percent to 15 percent (in case such company is a filer) by making amendment in Division I of Part Ill to the First Schedule to the Income Tax, 2001. However the rate of tax under section 150 of the Ordinance required to be deducted upon payment of dividend by a collective investment scheme, REIT scheme or mutual fund to a company, being a nonfiler, has not witnessed any change and has remained static at 25 percent.
The FBR further said prior to the Finance Act, 2018 any person receiving dividend from a Developmental REIT Scheme set up by 3oth June, 2018 (for the purpose of development and construction of residential buildings) could avail a 50 percent reduction in tax for a period of three years with effect from June 30, 2018 in terms of the third proviso to Division Ill of Part I of First Schedule to the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001.
In order to promote and encourage investment in Developmental REIT Schemes appropriate amendments have been introduced in the third proviso to Division Ill of Part-l of the First Schedule to the Ordinance through the Finance Act, 2018 whereby persons receiving dividend from a Developmental REIT Scheme shall be entitled to a 50 percent tax reduction if such Developmental REIT scheme (with the object of development and construction of residential buildings) is set up by 3oth June, 2020.
In addition, 50 percent tax reduction on dividend received from such Developmental REIT Schemes would be available for three years from the date of setting up of such Developmental REIT Scheme.
Corresponding amendments have also been made in the third proviso to Division I of Part-Ill of the First Schedule to the Ordinance in respect of the tax required to be deducted under section 150 of the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 on the dividend paid by a Developmental REIT Scheme (with the object of development and construction of residential buildings).
The FBR explained that prior to the Finance Act, 2018 the rate of advance tax to be deducted under section 150 of the Ordinance on payment of dividend by a rental REIT scheme to an individual as well as an AOP was 12.5 percent in the case of a filer and 15 percent in the case of a non-filer. In order to incentivize investment by individuals in rental REIT schemes, a fifth proviso has been added in Division I of Part Ill of the First Schedule to the Income Tax Ordinance, 2001 through the Finance Act, 2018 whereby advance tax to be deducted under section 150 of the Ordinance upon payment of dividend to an individual by a rental REIT Scheme has been reduced to 7.5 percent irrespective whether the individual is a filer or a non-filer.

Absent from the Reunion
High school was a phenomenal time in my life. It shaped me. It represented the four years of great and rapid evolution from childhood to adulthood, with all the wonders that such a transformation entails — an opening to the world, responsibility, sex and love, poetry. I remember my classmates and my teachers, almost every one of them. Each day was a new challenge and I was happy. I liked the silly imposed discipline rules, the books I read and the solving of advanced math problems as much as I liked cutting class, wandering through the streets, smoking and drinking. I developed — we all, youths of my class, developed — a certain cynical perception of reality that served me well later on, not necessarily because it was always right, but because it kept me vigilant.
At the end of May I will travel to Bucharest to celebrate my 50th high school reunion. I have the feeling that I will blog about it after my visit. Until then, I can only dream and try to imagine how it will be.
It's puzzling that fifty years have gone by — a full half-century, or 18,250 days, if one ignores the leap years and the fact that our reunion will not necessarily fall on the exact date of our graduation. Young people can understand the passing of time, but not feel it intrinsically. Those of us who survived it, don't understand it at all, and can only say, wow, high school happened yesterday! Equally astonishing is that it has been 30 years since the Romanian Revolution. In school I was convinced the old communist regime in Romania would last forever.
The reunion schedule includes a visit to the high school — an imposing, classical style building proudly standing in the middle of Bucharest — and a dinner. How many will show up is anybody's guess. One thing I know for sure: those of us no longer on this earth will be missed.
Of those, there is one man in particular whose absence I will feel very deeply. He was a wonderful friend I lost seven years ago to cancer. I was tempted to call him 'my best childhood friend,' but it's wrong to rank friendships. I am lucky to have grown up with many friends who influenced my life and at different times, some ebbed closer to me than others. I wrote about some of them in my earlier blogs, and called them my brothers. This man was my brother also, in a different way, and I have hesitated to write about him until now, because it is painful.
He was a tall, slender guy with handsome features, the eyes of a doe and a droopy, brown mustache. Well, I considered him handsome, and judging by the large number of girls interested in him, so did others. What I remember best was his presence. He always spoke with a self-assurance that was rejuvenating. His ideas were not as impressive in depth or content, as they were in his wit and his passion. He was smart and funny and he possessed so much thirst for life that he skipped over details. He was generous. He was kind, and if you knew him the way I did, in spite of his raucous stance, you knew he had the heart of a teddy bear.
In high school, for a short while, we loved the same girl and that introduced a novel concept into my friendship towards him — jealousy. We overcame it (he got the girl!).
Later, as young men, we went on our most memorable trips together. We hiked the Southern Carpathians from Sinaia to Râmnicu Vâlcea (for those who don't know Romania, that trek is not for amateurs), and then we traveled through Hungary, Czechoslovakia and Poland, an amazing feat in those times and under those political circumstances.
I left for the US. He stayed. He had a good life in Romania, with a beautiful and loving wife and a wonderful daughter. Those were hard and challenging times as well. As an engineer he spent a lot of time on major construction sites, working long hours under difficult conditions. His responsibilities grew and he became more and more dedicated to his profession, an essential part of his success being his ability to relate to people. To all people. Those working for him loved him. Those he worked for loved him also. Often the evenings were spent with coworkers at the local pub, drinking and smoking, and it's easy for me to imagine that with his larger than life, gregarious personality, he did drink more and smoked more than others.
After the regime changed in Romania, he and his family visited us in the United States several times. We celebrated New Year 2000 together. We went on a cruise to the Caribbean. Another time, my wife, my children and I joined him and his family on a tour of northeastern Romania. He was a partner at a construction firm, and arranged through his work for a van and driver. True to his name, the driver, Mr. Iota, was a diminutive man, quite a bit older than us, and a big soccer fan. Our trip coincided with the World Cup that year, and every time we arrived at a hotel during a soccer match when the Romanian team was playing, we would gather in one room, eat, drink, joke and argue, while the match would unfold on television. Mr. Iota sat to the side, passionately watching the game, and from time to time half rising to his feet bent forward and silently lifting both arms above his head, in a gesture of enthusiasm or despair. I guessed he didn't stand fully upright and didn't vocalize, out of a sense of humility.
Then my friend's disease struck. It had been hard to diagnose and even harder to fight. I visited him several months before he died, and witnessed firsthand his physical pain and mental agony. He couldn't talk any longer, but his eyes did, and while his end was near, he was still fighting. His wife and daughter were there, two distressed, shattered figures. This blog is not the place to dwell on his suffering, so I will not describe it here.
Yes, I miss my friend every day, and I will miss him more at our reunion. Most of us will. He was the soul of our party. And I can't help it but see in his untimely end those candles that burn down faster than others because of the intensity of the flame, or Mr. Iota's stifled gestures when he jumped to his feet and raised his arms, yet not quite fully.
This is a story of how I felt that i liked someone but i kept on making a fool out of myself.

The Story Behind Your Favorite Neighborhood Grocery Store
The neighborhood grocery store you know and love has deep roots right here in Houston. Food Town got its start in late 1993 when lifelong groceryman and Aggie alum Ross Lewis gathered six business associates together for a mission: To offer national-brand products, quality meats and fresh produce at competitive prices. Armed only with personal seed money and the support of long-time vendor partners, they opened Food Town No. 1 in Pasadena on April 28, 1994.
Two other locations opened the following month, and the rest, as they say, is history.
Food Town grew into 16 stores, taking over space as other business exited, and continued that growth with the 2015 purchase of the Gerland's grocery chain. Today we are an independent grocer with 30 Houston-area locations, all boasting maroon and white in honor of our Aggie heritage. Food Town has consistently been named among the Houston Business Journal's list of Largest Family-Owned Businesses, as well as the Houston Chronicle's "Chronicle 100" list of largest area grocery stores. Recently, Food Town was voted as one of the best Houston grocery stores by the Houston Press.
We owe much of our success to the incredible people we work with each day. Strong relationships with vendors and suppliers allow us to provide money-saving deals, while our talented team members always go above and beyond. And none of it would be possible without our wonderful customers. Of course, it also helps that, at our roots, we're grocery people.
Our company got its start with Ross, who spent his entire career — more than 55 years — in the same industry. He worked with four different grocery chains, two of which he led, all in the Houston area. His love of serving others is something he passed down to his sons Randy and Mike. Both sons pursued careers in the grocery world, and Mike is our current Food Town president. With many of our company's original people still at the reins, we are proud to be your neighborhood grocery store. At Food Town, it's your town.
Please Note: Named businesses operating inside of Food Town locations are independently owned and operated, and are in no way affiliated with the Food Town brand. This includes, but is not limited to, bakery and floral departments, movie rental kiosks and coin services.

Government urges businesses to take action on cyber security
By Tayla on May 10, 2016
Britain's businesses are being urged to better protect themselves from cyber criminals after government research into cyber security found two thirds of large businesses experienced a cyber breach or attack in the past year.
The Cyber Security Breaches Survey found that nearly seven out of ten attacks on all firms involved viruses, spyware or malware and while one in four large firms experiencing a breach did so at least once a month, only half of all firms have taken any recommended actions to identify and address vulnerabilities. Even fewer, about a third of all firms, had formal written cyber security policies and only 10% had an incident management plan in place.
Minister for the Digital Economy Ed Vaizey said: "The UK is a world-leading digital economy and this Government has made cyber security a top priority. Too many firms are losing money, data and consumer confidence with the vast number of cyber attacks. It's absolutely crucial businesses are secure and can protect data. As a minimum companies should take action by adopting the Cyber Essentials scheme which will help them protect themselves."
The Government is creating a new National Cyber Security Centre offering industry a 'one-stop-shop' for cyber security support. A new national cyber security strategy will also be published later in 2016 setting out the Government's plans to improve cyber security for Government, businesses and consumers.
Free cyber security guidance and training for businesses, including the Cyber Essentials scheme, can be found at:

Helpful Facts on Planning a Guanacaste Incentive Trip
by: Luke Kreitner August 9, 2016
Palo Verde National Park
Up to 250,000 birds reside here at once, with the most common being egrets, herons, storks, spoonbills, ibis, grebes and ducks.
More than 300 bird species have been seen in the park, and it contains the greatest concentration of shorebirds and waterfowl in Central America.
It is considered a migratory and resident waterfowl refuge, and its lands are therefore protected by law.
The 45,500-acre park is a mosaic of 15 different habitats, including mangrove swamps, grassy savannahs, marshes, salt ponds, pastures and evergreen forest, all bordered by sloping limestone hills
Entrance Fee: $10.00
Location: 19 miles from Canas
Area : 45,509 acres
Hours : 8 a.m. until 5 p.m.
In addition to deer, coatimundis, armadillo, howler monkeys, white-faced monkeys and peccaries, Palo Verde is home to the largest jaguarondi population in Costa Rica.
American crocodiles, which can reach up to 15 feet long, are another park mainstay, floating down the Tempisque River at a disarmingly relaxed pace.
Try to visit Palo Verde during the dry season (December-April), when most of the 300 resident bird species are in abundance. During the rainy season, parts of the park flood and become inaccessible, though river boat tours still operate.
About Guanacaste, Costa Rica
Guanacaste is a nature lover's paradise, with miles of pristine beaches, lush tropical forests and volcanoes crisscrossed by trails.
Guanacaste's climate is something of an anomaly in Costa Rica due to its low-lying position, characterized by infrequent rain and dry heat from November to April.
A trip to the province's less frequented areas allows a glimpse of everyday regional life far from generic resorts. Awe-inspiring nature blankets the province, from the Cordillera volcanoes and forests protecting birds, monkeys and jaguars to pristine Pacific beaches.
Guanacaste National Park and adjoining Santa Rosa National Park boast stunning scenery, from the high-elevation volcanic forests to coastal dry forests that are home to rare sea turtle species.
In Guanacaste Park, visitors traverse multiple eco-systems along the winding nature trail, starting in Pacific dry forests near Santa Rosa, to the dense cloud forests along the park's eastern volcano slopes.
Birdwatching is a popular pastime in Guanacaste Park, where visitors may also spot resident capuchin monkeys, among other species. Meanwhile, many surfers head straight to Santa Rosa beaches, where some of Costa Rica's best waves are found.
Facts About Guanacaste
The Northern Pacific region also comprises fascinating national parks, picturesque towns and villages filled with an important historical and cultural heritage.
Rincon de la Vieja National Park
Santa Rosa National Park
Las Baulas National Marine Park
It is the most north-western province of Costa Rica and has a population of around 280 488 inhabitants 6,57% of the country's population.
Full of splendid sensations for active people and adventure lovers, it is a region that offers:
Numerous water sports, besides world-class diving, and fishing.
A great destination for golfers.
Interesting mixture of deluxe resorts and secluded boutique hotels.
Numerous beaches and four volcanoes.
The perfect time to visit Guanacaste is, luckily enough, year-round. The "golden" season endows the serious sun worshippers with plenty of tanning time, while the "green season" brings the trees into bloom with a palette of colors and fragrances. In Guanacaste, the average temperature is about 27 ° C and average rainfall per year is 1500-2000 mm.
Guanacaste National Park
Guanacaste is a large park that protects 32,512 hectares where elevations range from 300 to 1659 meters (984 to 5443 feet). The habitats represented here are cloud forest, pasture/farm, and regenerating tropical dry forest.
The large range of elevations result in trails that cross several ecosystems as you climb from the dry Pacific forests near the border with Santa Rosa National Park to the high elevation cloud forests near the peaks of Orosi and Cacao volcanoes. You can cross the continental divide and climb down to rainforest typical of the Caribbean side of Northern Costa Rica.
Among the dry forest inhabitants are Collared Peccaries, Howler Monkeys, White-nosed Coatis, White-tailed Deer, and Variegated Squirrels, Long-tongued Bats, and Capuchin Monkeys. You will almost certainly spot dozens of birds in a hour or two of walking including White-throated Magpie Jays, Orange-Fronted Parakeets, and Crested Caracara (roadside hawks). At higher elevations you may spot Squirrel Cuckoos, Tanagers and Groove-billed Anis.

and likewise all the seven died childless. Finally the woman also died. Now at the resurrection whose wife will that woman be? For all seven had been married to her."
· The Sadducees were less orthodox than the Pharisees. They held only to the first five books of the OT, the Torah. Since the belief in a future resurrection developed in the later books of the OT, they did not accept this understanding.
· But even though they are normally in opposition to the Pharisees, here they are in union with them. Jesus is their common foe. The Pharisees have not succeeded in trapping Jesus, so the Sadducees take their shot at him.
o They try to present Jesus with a dilemma. If Moses permited a woman to remarry every time her husband dies. The dilemma is: will this not bring confusion into the next life? How will she determine who is her legitimate spouse if all of them are raised?
Jesus said to them, "The children of this age marry and remarry; but those who are deemed worthy to attain to the coming age and to the resurrection of the dead neither marry nor are given in marriage. They can no longer die, for they are like angels; and they are the children of God because they are the ones who will rise. That the dead will rise even Moses made known in the passage about the bush, when he called out 'Lord, ' the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob; and he is not God of the dead, but of the living, for to him all are alive."
· What two answers does Jesus give them? He deals with them on their own terms.
· Life in heaven is entirely different from life on earth. The focus of our union is not primarily with each other but with God. Because of our union with God, our union with each other is perfected. There is no more jealously or selfishness, only love of the other.
· The resurrection was foreshadowed even in the first five books of the OT. Because Abraham, Isaac and Jacob physically died, they are alive with God in heaven as all who are truly children of God.
· Even though in the Creed we profess the resurrection of the body and life everlasting, how often have we reflected on what this truly means to us?
What do we take from this passage and apply to our life?

Third-Party Retro Black PlayStation 5 Cancelled Due to Threats
SUP3R5, the third-party developer for the unofficial Retro Black PlayStation 5, will be canceling all orders for the limited edition console because of threats to their safety. This is shortly after the console went on sale for pre-order on January 8, 2021, at 3 p.m. EST. It's important to note that SUP3R5 has no official association with Sony Interactive Entertainment Inc or Sony Corporation, as indicated on their website. The situation is reminiscent of threats to safety made against the development team of Cyberpunk 2077.
What is the Retro Black PlayStation 5?
Rebecca Smith on PlayStationLifeStyle reported that this unofficial PlayStation console originated from a mock-up created by Reddit user whattheefth in honor of PlayStation's 30th anniversary. This is despite the fact that the PlayStation's 30th anniversary will not be until 2024.
The response to the retro-looking version of the PlayStation 5 was so popular that the third party SUP3R5 decided to create the unofficial console themselves and sell it for $649 as well as DualSense controllers at $99 each.
There were only going to be 304 units in reference to PlayStation 2's 03/04/2000 launch date. Considering 54,000 people were on the waiting list, it would be about as uphill a battle to get these as it currently is to get a PlayStation 5. However, these chances became impossible when SUP3R5 announced that due to credible threats again them, they would be canceling the console and refunding everyone who pre-ordered it.
What were the threats?
The threats reportedly stemmed from the supply and demand issues. Only minutes after pre-orders went on sale, the console sold out. According to Rob Thubron on TECHSPOT, some people were charged for the console but never got any confirmation regarding their order. As a result, the company supposedly received threats from angry customers who either didn't get a confirmation or who missed out on the console completely.
Publically, the company said: "We take these threats seriously, and as a result, we're not proceeding forward. All orders are being canceled with full refunds." They added "We intended this to be a fun way to celebrate a shared nostalgia. As it turns out, there are people out there who are willing to interfere with that. If we determine that it's safe to try again, we will. For now, please stay safe." So, there is the possibility that the console will be available in the future. However, since this response, SUP3R5 has deleted their Twitter.
Many Reddit users have been discussing whether this entire console was a scam. Apparently, people who ordered through SUP3R5's could not delete their credit card information after placing an order for a console. However, it appears people are receiving refunds (through Paypal at least) amidst talks of this being a scam according to this Reddit thread discussing the legitimacy of the company.
Based on the response to this unofficial console, I'd be surprised if Sony didn't try to snatch this idea up and do a limited release of their own come their real 30th anniversary in 2024. Would you order one if Sony releases an official version? Did you try to order this system through SUP3R5? What has your experience been like? Let us know in the comments below.

Protein biosynthesis (Synthesis) is the process in which cells build proteins. The term is sometimes used to refer only to protein translation but more often it refers to a multi-step process, beginning with transcription and ending with translation. Protein biosynthesis, although very similar, differs between prokaryotes and eukaryotes.
Transcription only requires one strand of the DNA double helix. This is called the template strand. Transcription starts with the process of initiation. RNA polymerase, an enzyme, binds to a specific region on DNA that designates the starting point of transcription. This binding region is called the promoter. As the RNA polymerase binds on to the promoter, the DNA strands are beginning to unwind.
The second process is elongation. RNA polymerase travels along the template (noncoding) strand, synthesizing a ribonucleotide polymer. RNA polymerase does not use the coding strand as a template because a copy of any strand produces a base sequence complementary to the strand which is being copied. Therefore DNA from the noncoding strand is used as a template to copy the coding strand.
As the polymerase reaches the termination stage, modifications are required for the newly transcribed mRNA to be able to travel to the other parts of the cell, including cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum. A 5' cap is added to the mRNA to protect it from degradation. A poly-A tail is added on the 3' end for protection and as a template for further process. In eukaryotes (higher organisms) the vital process of splicing (genetics) occurs at this stage.
During translation, mRNA previously transcribed from DNA is decoded by specialized cellular structures called ribosomes to make proteins. Protein biosynthesis is divided into initiation, elongation and termination phases.
The ribosome has sites, which allow another specialized RNA molecule, known as tRNA, to bind to the mRNA. Binding of the correct tRNA to the mRNA on the ribosome is accomplished by an "anticodon" that is part of the tRNA. Thus, the correct tRNA, chemically linked to a specific amino acid, is directed to the ribosome to be added to a growing (nascent) polypeptide. The chemical process of connecting two amino acids is shown in the picture below.
As the ribosome travels down the mRNA one codon at a time, another tRNA is attached to the mRNA at one of the ribosome sites. The first tRNA is released, but the amino acid that is attached to the first tRNA is now moved to the second tRNA, and binds to its amino acid. This translocation continues on, and a long chain of amino acid (protein), is formed.
When the entire unit reaches the end codon on the mRNA, it falls apart and a newly formed protein is released. This is termination. It is important to know that during this process, many enzymes are used to either assist or facilitate the whole procedure.
The events following biosynthesis include post-translational modification and protein folding. During and after synthesis, polypeptide chains often fold to assume, so called, native secondary and tertiary structures. This is known as protein folding.
Many proteins undergo post-translational modification. This may include the formation of disulfide bridges or attachment of any of a number of biochemical functional groups, such as acetate, phosphate, various lipids and carbohydrates. Enzymes may also remove one or more amino acids from the leading (amino) end of the polypeptide chain, leaving a protein consisting of two polypeptide chains connected by disulfide bonds.
