India to allow late filing in first two months of GST - Jaitley | Reuters
Fwire Reuters Jun 18, 2017 21:45:04 IST
NEW DELHI India will launch a new national Goods and Services Tax (GST) as planned on July 1, Finance Minister Arun Jaitley said on Sunday, but will let companies file late returns for the first two months so that they can adapt to a new online filing system.The GST, the biggest tax reform in India's 70-year history, will require firms to file three online returns each month. Some business lobby groups have urged a delay to the rollout to allow more time to get ready.Jaitley, speaking after a meeting of a GST coordination panel, said there would be "a slight relaxation of time" covering July and August before the strict GST filing timetable would apply from September.
Companies would be able to file simplified, aggregate returns in July and August, with a deadline of the 20th of the following month, said Hasmukh Adhia, a finance ministry official steering the launch of the tax.Once fully up and running, the GST would require companies to file a complete return of their sales invoices by the 10th of the following month, with a second of their purchase invoices by the 15th. A third return would calculate their tax bill.
"Relaxation for filing transaction-wise returns in July, August ... will provide relief to the industry," said Harishanker Subramaniam, head of indirect tax at EY India.The GST marks a technological leap forward for India - it will be driven by an IT back end that can process up to 5 billion invoices a month. It also poses a huge challenge for larger companies to remodel their business process, while many small-time traders lack the technological know-how to cope.
More than 6.5 million businesses have already signed up for the GST, Jaitley said, more than four-fifths of those already registered to pay India's old business taxes.At Sunday's meeting, officials also agreed on several sets of GST rules, including anti-profiteering guidelines intended to prevent traders exploiting the reform to ramp up prices.The GST Council will meet again on June 30, the eve of the launch, Jaitley said.

Peckham Festival 2017 by Bike
HomePeckham Festival 2017Peckham Festival 2017 by Bike
Bikes give you better access to Peckham than any other form of transport. When you know where to go and what to look out for, a trusty bicycle enables you to view the area's rich history and cultural significance through a new lens.
This self-directed tour would be best enjoyed on Saturday 16th and Sunday 17th September 2017. The first half of the tour can be ridden at a relaxed pace along the quieter roads away from the high street and with short breaks, and is suitable for all riders. The second half is suitable for more confident riders along the Old Kent Road.
To the north of Rye lane, you'll ride on a track first paved by the Romans in AD47 – now known as the Old Kent Road. It's the same path you'll find in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales; that was the scene of the 1415 celebrations for soldiers returning from the Battle of Agincourt; and has more recently become known as the only square on the Monopoly board situated south of the river.
Discover the scores of creative spaces hidden in plain sight along this road. Within the area's 3.5-mile border, Peckham Festival by bike will take you
to places you didn't know existed.
All locations can be found on our map, and additional information can be found in the Open Studios section. Don't forget to share your discoveries with us – tweet or Instagram us at @peckhamfestival.
Facing Peckham Library, take the cycle path running to the left (the Surrey Canal
Path). This long-forgotten canal had once connected to the River Thames.
Cycle up to Glengall Wharf Gardens to see this permaculture in action. This
group of local people are keen to get growing sustainably in north Peckham
and are developing the site as a resource for local people to share skills related to
food and growing. Join in their funday on Sunday 17th September (64 Glengall
Rd, SE15 6NF).
Turn left at the Path crossroads, and left again onto B215 Sumner Road, and
first left into Pennack Road. The modern building on the corner of these is ACME
Galleria (Pennack Road, SE15 6PW). Located on the site of an old printworks, this 10-storey building houses 149 apartments and 47 studios.
Turn right and right again, returning to the Canal path crossroads and this time
go straight across to Glengall Road. Turn left onto Bianca Road and follow the road round onto Haymerle Road. The large square building ahead is [ space ] Studios (90 Haymerle Road, SE15 6SD) with almost 70 studios of leading contemporary artists in London.
Continue on Haymerle Road and follow round to the right and you are at Artistic Spaces (7-17 Latona Road SE15 6RX). Formed in 2010, Artistic Spaces has spaces available to creatives at affordable rates without the long and sometimes costly contracts associated with most commercial space.
Cycle straight on, and turn right back onto Glengall Road. Turn right onto Old Kent Road and turn right onto Ossory Road. 100m on your right hand side you
will see a sign for Kaymet Works (52 Ossory Road SE1 5AN). Here you will discover the homewares Icon Kaymet and the London Stone Carvers which should not be missed.
Continue along Old Kent Road and turn left onto Sandgate Street, and you will discover the second Artistic Spaces studio complex, Action House (53 Sandgate St, SE15 1LE). Visit Shade Abdul Architecture.
Follow Sandgate Street as it curves to the right and changes into Ruby Street and Hyndman Street. Turn left onto Old Kent Road, and, after 150m take the first right into Commercial Way and onto Bird in Bush Road where you will find signs to Livesey Exchange (SE15 1NF) where 60 vacant garages on the Ledbury Estate on Old Kent Road will be transformed into the Livesey Exchange providing spaces for making,
training and cultural programmes and will have a host of activities on Saturday
16th September only.
Return to the Old Kent Road and after 800m turn left into Ilderton Road and cycle 500m before making a left turn to Manor Grove. The next two blocks (Ormside Street and Hatcham Road) may be unassuming light industrial buildings but many are home to some of the most exciting creatives in Peckham: from prop making to sculpture, fine art and more. Check out DIY Space for London, James Cappa, Studio Makecreate and the Penarth Center where you'll find Ivo Carew Architect.
Return to the Old Kent Road and turn left onto Peckham Park Road and just after the crossroads with Commercial Way, turn left into Buller Close and discover The London Youth Support Trust (LYST – 19 Buller Close, SE15 6UJ): a youth enterprise charity that provides young people with the space and support they need to start a business.
Follow Buller Close to Peckham Hill Street, turn left and you will return to Peckham Library.

These five actions are not new; however, they are a good reminder of what it takes to move forward. We can practice them on and off or turn them into habits. If we can ingrain these actions into our daily life and make them hard to give up, then we surely would be on our path to grow our business successfully.
Some believe that the toughest part of launching a new business is arriving at a great idea. While that's essential, more important is what's done to execute them and bring a product to market. I myself have been guilty of coming up with a great idea only to let it sit on a shelf and later discover that someone else developed a similar notionand acted on it.
One entrepreneur who produces a high-quality product recently consulted with me. His success has been limited despite his having an innovative product with military and consumer applications and significant potential demand. After encountering buyers who sought large quantities of his product, he stalled. His challenges included capital raising, recruitment of talent and development of a comprehensive and thoughtful business plan.
Successful entrepreneurs know that success is not always a linear upward progression and understand that obstacles arise. Those who are ultimately successful do not become paralyzed by challenges but instead find a way around them. They don't sit still. They keep moving.
Herjavec suggested in his column that entrepreneurs who are unable or unwilling to continue to move forward or backward or seek an alternative route are destined to doom. Without movement of some sort the entrepreneur's venture gets stuck and eventually fails.
A mantra I repeat on my radio show, speaking engagements and YouTube channel is "Fail often. Fail fast. Fail forward." Often people are taught that failing is bad. Yet without failure few entrepreneurs would know the way to success. Entrepreneurs seldom get it right the first time. But having the ability to keep moving by making adjustments improves the odds of success.

Karolina, you come across as the quintessential cool mom.
KK: Thank you! But we all have these fantasies about being the cool mom, don't we?
Yes, it seems impossible to be any other kind of mom these days. So, please help us to define this, since you have two children!
KK: Well, she can be cool if she lets her children experience things around them without interfering all the time, while creating a safety net for them to fall back on. That is really important.
cold in that context, as if you weren't a human being. And we all try to be so perfect today.
When I think back to when I was little, being a mother was just being a mother. Maybe with a job. Today, I tell myself: I am a good cook, a great mom, a great businesswoman. And then I think, but wait, Karolina, how can you be a designer on top of all this? It's crazy to think like that, right? But this is often how women think these days.
I think a good parent is someone who is willing to be wrong and work on that. Someone who is not afraid to get down and dirty, whatever that takes. I also learned from my parents. They were always very supportive of each other. And that's also cool!
Did your parents teach you how to become a modern parent?
KK: Of course, there is more DNA in you from your parents than you think. But to answer your question, yes, they did. They taught me to appreciate good manners, a love for good memories and moments. These days I experience moments with my own family that I remember having back then with my parents—sitting at dinner in the evening, having conversations, laughing and telling each other stories. I grew up seeing my dad and my mom cleaning the house, cooking and working together. Whatever needed to be done, they did it together. It was important to see the two of them so supportive of each other. And for the times I grew up in, that was very advanced, very modern. The result is that I am not afraid of doing anything in my life, since I have seen that you can help each other out and succeed. So of course, I looked for a husband that was a good team player.
Still, a lot happens to a woman in the transition from the cool girl to the cool mom. What changes?
KK: Well, everything! But to me it's the evolution of life, it's not all about you anymore. You ask yourself, why are you here? And maybe you're doing what you love, but are you also doing what your family loves? One thing I find is very important: you need time as a couple and you need your children to know that about you. Also, you need to be adored and feel feminine. I think that is something very essential.
KK: I am a big research nerd and I was curious. Everybody tells you something different. The first time as a new parent you think you need so much.
Then, with my second child, I learned that you need much less than you thought. Your focus should be on quality over quantity. I also learned that I want a changing bag that is stylish, and not just a changing bag!
When it comes to a stroller, you need something simple, but with personality; something safe, but stylish. That's why I love CYBEX. You have wheels for the countryside or beach, skis for the snow, and a great car seat. But since I am a fashion girl, I also need something with style and of course something that isn't polluting the planet. That has become a real must for me.
So, it seems like it would have been a perfect collaboration with CYBEX then, since you created an environmentally conscious collection!
KK: Sustainability has become very important to me. Not only for us, but also for our children. So, we included recycled plastic in the collection and I am super excited that we were able to create a stroller cover using 31 plastic bottles. That's a huge step into the future.
At the same time, the collection is fun and about love and happiness. I liked it, not just comingup with something black, white or blue. I like the color and fun of the pattern, and the big kissing mouth. And it's great that CYBEX understood what I was thinking of, right from the start.
How did you meet with CYBEX?
KK: Initially they sent me a stroller, when I had my son Noah. Then I met the founder Martin Pos in a CYBEX store in Germany, along with our families, children and parents, and we liked each other from the beginning. So we decided to collaborate very quickly.
I loved that I was involved in the design process, and didn't only choose from ten different products that were presented to me. What I liked about the collaboration is that we were thinking about how to change the industry. With all the problems we are experiencing in the world right now, sustainability is one of the solutions.
KK: For me it's all about acceptance, understanding and love. We can't live without love. I can't live without love for my kids, my husband, my family. While I was researching for the CYBEX campaign, I opened a book and read the line, "Love is unique, love is complete, love is universal." That really spoke to me and got me thinking. Especially these days, life should be fun—happy, filled with love and connection. That's what I am looking for as an experience.

Acer just announced the Aspire AS5738PG, their first multi-touch notebook, that will ship with Windows 7 on October 22nd. Unlike many mobile PCs that sport a touchscreen the Aspire AS5738PG doesn't fold flat like a tablet, opting for a conventional laptop configuration. This doesn't take away from the ability to use the touchscreen; it just changes the focus of touch technology from that of a tablet.
Use gestures like pinch, flip and swirl to zoom, navigate and browse.
For more details on what you can do with touch in Windows 7 on the Aspire AS5738PG check out this collection of touch apps.
Laptop Magazine had early access to this notebook and posted their full review of the Aspire AS5738PG including impressions of the touchscreen and the Acer Touch Portal.
While reading new messages posted to Twitter, we very much liked how we could zoom in on text to make it bigger by spreading two fingers apart, zoom out by bringing two fingers together in a pinching gesture, or scroll up/down by flicking in those directions with our index finger. When viewing images in the Photos folder, we could page through all of the pictures in the folder by swiping left or right with a single finger, which felt completely natural. In fact, after a few minutes of interacting with the 5738PG in this fashion (and after some initial trepidation), we found it superior to the mouse for navigating photos.
Overall, touch worked like a charm, but with our fingers constantly pressing the screen, it reclined from a 90-degree angle to approximately 45 degrees over the course of a few minutes. You'll clearly need to keep one hand behind the screen during longer touch computing sessions to keep the LCD front and center. We also found that the display picked up fingerprints quickly.
Overall the laptop earns good marks from Laptop Magazine for including touch at an affordable price but they wish the touch experience was a little bit more "robust".
Another interesting part of the Aspire AS5738PG, that number crunchers are sure to love, is the dedicated numeric keypad for easy number entry.
The Aspire AS5738PG will be sold at select retailers later this month and according to the press release will be available at and MSRP of $799.
I like this touch screen Acer laptop very much. I have found a good deal for $699 at http://www.elivedeals.com. I got it 2 days back. So far I like it.

Manly Warringah Sea Eagles suffered a disappointing 36-14 loss to Canberra Raiders tonight at GIO Stadium in round eight of the Holden Cup.
It was certainly a game of two different halves after Manly dominated the first half through some strong defence and spirit to lead 8-6 at half-time.
The Sea Eagles opened the scoring in the third minute when winger Alfred Smalley dived over in the right corner for a 4-0 lead after the ball was spread right through the backline from a scrum win after Canberra knocked the ball on from a clearing kick on the last tackle.
Five-eighth Tom Wright extended the lead to 8-0 in the 16th minute before the Raiders scored through a grubber kick 20 minutes later to trail 8-6 at the break.
Unfortunately for the Sea Eagles, the second half started terribly with the Raiders scoring three tries in 12 minutes and from there, were never headed in a poor second half from Manly.
Cade Cust managed to score for the Sea Eagles in the 73rd minute with the try converted by winger Bilal Marrbani for a 30-14 scoreline.
The Raiders then crossed again through their captain three minutes from full-time for a 36-14 lead.

He studied calligraphy, painting, poetry and Confucianism. He took the civil service exams and was placed as the district magistrate of Chang-Ping where he became a judge. Throughout the book, Judge Dee takes on many complex cases and with his education in Confucian beliefs is able to catch each criminal and provide justice for the people of Chang-Ping.

Through his rulings, Judge Dee demonstrates the importance of respecting and honoring one's elders. He releases Mrs. Djou, who allegedly murdered her husband, on bail so that she can attend to her elderly mother-in-law and her daughter. On page 112 it states that Judge Dee said, "I think it is not right that your old mother suffers for you, and has to run her house all alone. I therefore shall release you on bail, so that you can serve your mother, as is proper." By doing this, he is demonstrating the...

He was known to be a famous detective and by his crime solving. The book, Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee, is broken down into three parts. This is because he is faced with three murders.

...The translated novel Celebrated Cases of Judge Dee tells of a district magistrate of Chang-Ping in the T'ang Dynasty named Judge Dee Goong An, famous for his ability to solve mysterious cases. This is simple enough, except it is immediately evident to the reader that Judge Dee is not just a normal magistrate content with solving a case – it is easy to see that he always digs deeper. His success is unparalleled in the land, his actions laid out without a single corrupt thought or a lax view. What makes Judge Dee so effective? How is he able to look past the most obvious answers to find the one that is correct? It is obvious that he can only do this with the help of various different philosophies. These philosophies provided him significant methods, clues, and authority to bring justice to the region. Confucianism, Taoism, and Legalism all play vital and separate roles in allowing Judge Dee to work effectively. Without all three, he would have not been successful in his cases.

Guys, it has been a solid minute and a half since I have posted a nail art post. But have no fear, I am back!!
The last time I had my nails decked out in gel polish was for Valentine's Day. I loved the design that you guys helped me choose. Then I had to pack for my move and I was stuck in boxes longer than I was expecting. That meant that I had to take a break from my precious nail art videos. It also meant that my nails have had a nice 3 months of non-gel polish time and have had the chance to grow out a bit.
Cute right?! Thanks to the friend who helped me in my moment of "omg there are too many choices" and was liked "that one." I tried to keep the colours as close as possible. I also decided that, instead of using nail tape or guides, I was going to use regular tape. That's right! Regular, ordinary Scotch tape.
Let me tell you, it didn't work.
I think that the gel polish isn't the best to be trying out all these nail hacks. The stamping and stencils didn't work either. I think it's just the composition of the gel polish. I find it too watery for these things to work. I have this idea of doing a gel polish base and then a regular polish stamp or stencil, then gel top coat. I think it might work? But that's for another day.
Here is the video for this experiment.
In the end, my nails turned out super cute! Although, it took me a little bit after the fact to look past the imperfections and like the nails.
Haha cos we both know I'm not allowed to cuss.
I love the colors! The sparkly blue is cool.
So cute!! I love this combo! Xo!

Column: Despite California privacy law, marketers are still scheming to snatch your data
Marketers have responded to a landmark California privacy law by trying to water it down and planning more sophisticated ways of collecting people's personal information.
(Zap Art / Getty Images)
By David LazarusBusiness Columnist
If anyone should be capable of communicating in plain English, you'd think it would be the Assn. of National Advertisers, an organization of nearly 2,000 companies, representing 25,000 brands, that touts itself as "the voice of the marketer."
I got my hands on a recent report from the association's data, marketing and analytics division titled "Know Your Audience: The Evolution of Identity in a Consumer-Centric Marketplace."
One takeaway is that when marketers don't think consumers are looking, they eagerly discuss new ways to violate people's privacy.
Another is that when they talk among themselves, marketers speak in total gibberish.
For example, "identity solutions," which the association says all marketers should be seeking in the digital age.
Identity solutions are "the coordinated activation of platforms, data and supporting services (both provided by third parties and sourced from among marketers' in-house resources) that support persistent recognition of audience members across devices and other promotional and transactional touchpoints."
I had to read that sentence multiple times before I figured out what the marketers are saying is they need to amass buckets of information about consumers from every possible source and use it to sell people stuff everywhere they go, online and off.
This isn't a frivolous issue. The Assn. of National Advertisers has emerged as a key player in efforts to water down a tough California privacy law, AB 375, set to take effect Jan. 1, 2020.
Among other things, the law gives consumers the right to know what information businesses are collecting about them and why they're collecting it.
"Marketers see the California privacy law as a cancer that has to be contained," said Jeff Chester, executive director of the Center for Digital Democracy, a privacy advocacy group. "The industry is freaked out about California."
The report from the Assn. of National Advertisers, he told me, is a helpful reminder that data-minded companies have an agenda, and it doesn't include helping consumers keep their personal information under wraps.
"When they speak in front of Congress, they talk about respecting people's privacy," Chester said. "When they speak among themselves, they talk about how they're dedicated to completely undermining our privacy."
I couldn't make heads or tails out of much of what the marketing association's report had to say. So I asked Chester to translate.
Marketers: "Until recently, channel-oriented approaches to data management have inhibited marketers' ability to gain a holistic view of their own audience."
Chester: "We couldn't do it before, but now we can bring together all the data flowing from all your devices. By merging your online and offline information, we've created a super profile that we can use to track and target you."
Marketers: "Emerging identity solutions offer the potential to solve for disconnected approaches to audience recognition, leveraging a unified process flow."
Chester: "We are perfecting more powerful ways to gather, analyze and instantly use your information for marketing purposes."
Marketers: "Within resolution, linking approaches are differentiated principally by their reliance on deterministic, probabilistic or hybrid methodologies."
Chester: "We have developed several ways to identify you no matter what device you use. We've come up with ways to match all your data, using powerful computers to scan tens of millions of records, that enable us to know it's the same person on that phone and PC."
The report expresses particular concern about "walled gardens" such as Facebook, which collect and hoard reams of information about users and prefer not to share all their toys with the other boys and girls.
The answer, the report says, is for marketers to create "ID consortiums" that "pool insights from multiple marketers and media providers."
Thousands of businesses collaborating to create huge troves of files about the personal habits of millions of customers. And then sharing all that information among themselves.
The report also notes that privacy regulations such as the California law present "a moving target" for marketers, requiring "new requirements for data governance and accountability."
Greater accountability! No!
The association's chief executive, Bob Liodice, said in a statement that marketers are facing "costly challenges that affect their brands' ability to engage with their audiences in relevant, respectful, consistent, personalized and meaningful ways."
"This report clearly shows that marketers are seeking tangible strategies for identifying and engaging customer audiences in ways that are responsible, personalized and optimized to meet both consumer needs and business objectives."
What it clearly shows is that when they think nobody's paying attention, marketers are plotting new ways to subvert privacy rules and expand their considerable exploitation of consumer data.
An association spokesman declined to elaborate on Liodice's statement.
Earlier this month, the Assn. of National Marketers was among dozens of corporate signatories of a letter to state Sen. Bill Dodd (D-Napa) seeking substantial changes to the "hastily passed" privacy law.
If adopted by lawmakers, the industry's changes would make it easier for them to collect and harness data, while making businesses less accountable for their actions.
The marketing association's report laments "regulatory changes and consumer scrutiny of data collection, management and use practices, which in some cases serve to inhibit more rapid innovation in data-driven marketing."
Don't you just hate it when consumers take an interest in how their personal information is used?
Along with the right to know what information businesses hold, California's privacy law allows consumers to ask that their information be deleted, and to opt out of having it sold to others.
These are reasonable protections that should be embraced by honest marketers.
In other words, a holistic and unified process flow, employing deterministic, probabilistic and hybrid methodologies, should not come at the expense of audience resentment at various transactional touchpoints.

Sourcing is technically about identifying candidates online using different sources – sure. But I like to think it's more than that. It's a certain approach to the recruitment process.
The sourcers I know and admire are curious, constantly learning and not afraid to experiment. It's that attitude that allows them to excel at recruiting for even the most challenging roles. They build strong relationships with candidates too.
I was on the platform and when I refreshed my feed, I was logged out. After trying to log back in, I was redirected to a screen that explained my account was now restricted. This is what I did to get back on the platform - and what you can try doing too.
What to do if your LinkedIn account is restricted?
I often get asked about recruiting in Poland. Where can you advertise? What platforms to use for sourcing? How to talk to candidates? Well, I decided to share some of the tips in a more accessible form.
We talk about talent communities a lot and we have for a while, and yet it seems there's surprisingly little available when it comes to specific examples. In this post you'll find details on why I created the group, how it grew, what worked best for growth and engagement.
I've always found recruiting and sourcing fascinating and I now train recruiters and help them reach more candidates. I write this bilingual blog and run the biggest recruitment community in Poland – Recruitment Open Community Polska.
ROC Polska is the largest recruitment community in Poland. We have over 2500 members, we meet for networking and small local events called ROC days.
I created a website dedicated to promoting independent HR bloggers in Poland. Thanks to the website gathering all of those – and additionally the best company blogs about HR – recruiters can come there for their daily dose of HR news and inspiration.

By Mary Fraughton
Have you ever played Hearts?
It's a card game. For our purposes, the important part is this: Every card in the heart suit is worth points, and (just like golf) players want to avoid those points.
I played a lot of Hearts as a kid, and I was awful at it. As the tricks trickled by, my pile of points would grow more and more daunting. I couldn't seem to wrap my head around the normal strategies, but there was a last-ditch thing that I really liked. If things start to go bad in this game, if you've gotten to the stage where, no matter how you proceed, you're probably sunk, you can Shoot for the Moon.
What this means is that you embrace the situation. Instead of avoiding the points, you turn around and chase them. If you succeed, if you collect every single card in the Hearts suit, you Shoot the Moon. The penalties don't stick to you. Instead the other players in the game get 26 points apiece and you come out clean.
I think I thought I could do that here.
The week after I reported, my neighbour stopped me in the street to ask why the cops had been outside my house so much lately. I muttered something evasive and shuffled away, but it felt pathetic. People were going to keep asking. I knew that these things could take years – I wasn't sure if I could hide it, could avoid discovery and shame and recrimination. I wasn't sure what hiding it would do to me.
This blog was the grand gesture that was supposed to make it … not better, but at least under my control. I thought that by turning around and embracing the discovery, I could transfer the baggage – the shame and the recrimination – onto society and walk away empty handed.
I forgot how much I suck at Hearts.
I forgot that I tend to overestimate my emotional resilience, that if biting off more than you can chew was an Olympic sport I'd be heading to Rio this summer.
Basically, I was wrong. I expected this to be worse than I expected, and the phenomenal shittiness of it still took me by surprise. The past seven months have cost me more (in tears, in vomit, in time, in sanity) than I was prepared for.
When Kathryn Borel stood on the courthouse steps and told us all that there was no point moving forward with her case against Ghomeshi, I felt a cold, furious triumph. Not because she'd won – she clearly hadn't done that – but because she'd looked the horrible, unwinnable game in the face and told it, "No." No, it's not worth it. No, I won't play.
And she didn't slink away, either. She stood there with her hair blowing around in front of all those cameras, and she spoke clearly and emphatically.
If you're like me, you thought of reporting sexual assault as a single, unpleasant event. You go to the cops, you make a statement, you wait for the trial. During these seven months I've had between six and eight (I haven't been journaling, so I'm not sure of the exact number) interviews with the police. Most of these were unannounced evening visits to my house. The officer would show up, be roared at by my dog, watch me make tea neither of us would drink. "Start at the beginning," he'd say, "in as much detail as possible."
And I'd clutch my mug of tea and talk.
"Can you remember anything distinctive about his voice?" the officer would ask. "His hands? What colour are his eyes, and what's the make of his car?"
But the details I remember are not the details anyone wants to hear. I remember the way his hands felt under my armpits as he hauled me up from the floor (I remember it every time I see a man pick up my nephews). I can tell you about the weight of him on my chest as he said, "I like the way you look with tears in your eyes."
I think his eyes were hazel. I think his car was grey.
Despite the patience and understanding of the officer I talked to, all of our interviews drove me (helplessly, wretchedly, self-loathingly) to tears. Only two made me cry so hard that I threw up.
I spent one cold spring day wandering around my hometown trying to find someone to take pictures of the three-month old bruises on my bum: At the hospital I told the whole story to the receptionist and three separate nurses before seeing a doctor, who told me that too much time had passed for them to be involved. "Would you like me to look at them?" the doctor asked me.
At the police station the sole officer in the building told me apologetically that there were no female officers on duty that day. "It wouldn't exactly be appropriate for me to ask you to drop your pants here," he said.
I went home feeling like a misguided exhibitionist and an idiot, and the pictures never got taken.
I spent one beautiful summer day copy-and-pasting flirtatious old emails to give to the police (a process that was as horrible as it was humiliating and also made me want to vomit).
They aren't ever going to give me back my flash drive.
Or my gas money.
Or my grandmother's peace of mind.
There's something about this process that makes me petty.
Because during these seven expensive months?
The man who assaulted me has had zero surprise evening visits from the police.
He has not had to answer questions from his neighbours. Or the receptionist at the hospital, three nurses (any nurses) or a doctor.
He has had zero scheduled visits with the police, which means that he has never curled in the fetal position in the corner of a library hyperventilating because he cannot face talking to them again. He hasn't actually had to talk to the police at all. He has not received one single phone call, email, smoke signal, text message, or telepathic communication from anybody in authority concerning the thing he did.
As far as I can tell from his website (he's not on Facebook) he has no idea that I reported him, and is happily running his business. Which is moving into niche porn production.
These facts make me worse than petty: They make me crazy.
There's a warrant out for his arrest, which is valid only in the Yukon. To the best of my understanding, warrants are extended to the rest of Canada only when harassment is ongoing.
What this means to me is that a man can beat me to unconsciousness and do all manner of non-consensual things to me, as long as he goes right home afterwards and doesn't call me.
Tell me again that women should report sexual assault.
Look me in the eye and tell me that our collective idealism about the criminal justice system is worth the price I'm paying. Because from where I'm standing, it's a whole lot more inconvenient to report a sexual assault than it is to be accused of one.
Petty, crazy, and bitter.
Last night I read the open letter the victim in the Stanford case wrote to the man who assaulted her. I didn't feel triumphant reading it; it made me sad and tired. I have so much admiration for that woman, who in that letter calls herself a lighthouse, tells us to keep fighting. I cried when I read it. Not because she won (what kind of victory was it, in the end?) but because she refused to be silent about the cost. Unlike Borel, the unnamed woman who wrote that letter did think that the game was worth playing. That's a harder thing to hear, and that woman is one of the few people I am willing to hear it from.
I don't have the answer. I don't know if I'm glad or miserable that I reported my assault (although I'm glad to be writing about it). I do know that the people who were most vocal about my responsibility in this situation were the people with the least understanding of what it would be like.
What I think is that when we tell a woman about her duty in the aftermath of a sexual assault, we're not only underestimating the toll that duty will take on her and overestimating the result of her actions: We're placing that burden in entirely the wrong place.
What I think is that it is not the job of women like Kathryn Borel, like the Stanford case victim, like me, to protect society from rapists. It is the job of society to protect us.
What I think is that this game is harder than Hearts. I can tell you the various ways to lose, but like the unnamed Stanford woman wrote, "Nobody wins."

Wouldn't you want to wake up to this Tasmanian view.

I feel the need to visit Mount Field National Park as I am overdue.
I really like the architectural look from this point where I feel so small and it helps to cleanse my head.

Is the following narration suitable to quote?
Imam Ibn 'Asakir (rahimahullah) has recorded this narration. However, he has declared the text unreliable (munkar). He further says that Makhul (rahimahullah) never met Ka'b Al Ahbar.
The narration is therefore not suitable to quote.
Makhul (rahimahullah) once went on a journey with Ka'b Al Ahbar. Among other places, they went to a cave and the place where Nabi Adam's ('alayhis salam) son murdered his brother. Ka'b Al Ahbar, offered Salah and engaged fervently in du'a at these places. His du'as were supposedly answered.

Clinton, George
Tagged: Music | People
(?1940- ) US funk musician, famous for his two connected groups, Parliament and Funkadelic. Many of the musicians from these collectives played on albums released under Clinton's name as solo albums. Computer Games (1982) has been especially heavily sampled by subsequent hip-hop and funk acts (the track "Atomic Dog" in particular); and the title track of You Shouldn't-Nuf Bit Fish (1983) refers, in characteristically goofy-cool style, to nuclear war (the "fish" refers both to fishing and nuclear fission). More reminiscent of Parliament is T.A.P.O.A.F.O.M. (1996) (the title is an abbreviation for The Awesome Power of a Fully Operational Mothership) in which the giant Spaceship of funk flies again. [AR]

To reward a youngster's physical prowess, the Johnson adminstration initiated the Presidential Physical Fitness Award. Now, Ronald Reagan has his own laurel to present.
High school students noted for running through math obstacles, computer science gymnastics, or adeptly tackling Thoreau are eligible to receive the Presidential Academic Fitness Award.
''The response has been overwhelming,'' says Wayne Roberts, deputy undersecretary of the Department of Education, in an interview here.
''The letters went out this month, and we already have 2,000 schools nominating 30,000 seniors for awards. We've heard from every state in the nation ,'' he says.
Educators contacted were pleased, if less effusive.
''We've had the physical fitness program for so many years. I'm glad to finally see this. It's a small but positive step,'' says Lou Gappmayer, principal of Bozman Senior High School in Montana.
* Attain a cumulative B-plus average through their high school years.
* Be credited with a total of 12 course units in any one or some of the ''new basics'' - English, math, science, social studies, foreign languages, and computer science.
The award and the ''new basics'' courses originate from the National Commission on Excellence in Education report, the administration's much-ballyhooed blueprint for education reform.
Mr. Widmeyer complains that while the adminstration hands out awards and Congress debates school prayer for months, bills aimed at meeting the shortage of math and science teachers are languishing on the Hill.
