A picture of the Earth in 'perfect balance' has been captured during the recent vernal equinox.
On March 20, day and night across the planet was equal at all latitudes and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Association (NOAA) captured this stunning image of the planet.
The equinox occurs twice a year, in March and in September. It heralds the changing seasons and, last week, marked the official astronomical start of spring.
The equinox (which is Latin for 'equal night') happens when Earth's axis is tilted neither toward nor away from the sun. During an equinox, the sun is directly over the equator at noon.

Q: Wavefunction renormalization in the on-shell scheme In the book "Quantum Field Theory of Point Particles and Strings" by Hatfield, in pages 114-118 the author discusses the proper relation between interacting fields and in/out fields and the spectral representation of the two-point function. In particular
\begin{eqnarray}
 \lim_{t\to -\infty}\varphi(x)&=&\sqrt{Z}\varphi_{\rm IN}(x)\\
 \lim_{t\to \infty}\varphi(x)&=&\sqrt{Z}\varphi_{\rm OUT}(x)\tag{7.10}
\end{eqnarray}
and then studying the spectral representation one finds that $iZ$ is the residue of the propagator at the pole corresponding to the mass of the particle. Moreover the author shows that $0 < Z \leq 1$ and that $Z=1$ if and only if $\varphi(x)=\varphi_{\rm IN}(x)$. In page 118 he further comments that $Z=1$ implies $\varphi=\varphi_{\rm IN}$ and we end up with a free field theory.
Now consider the renormalized Lagrangian for the renormalized field $\varphi^R(x)$. In the on-shell scheme one sets the residue of the propagator at the mass pole to be $i$. In particular, comparing to the above discussion, this means that for the renormalized field $\varphi^R(x)$ we have one $Z^R=1$.
But now this is rather confusing because Hatfield says that a field for which the residue of the propagator at the mass pole is $i$ coincides with in/out fields and is a free field. But the renormalized field certainly can't be free (we are in the interacting theory after all!).
So what is reallly going on here? How can the renormalized field $\phi^R(x)$ have $Z^R=1$ and this still be an interacting theory? How to reconcile this renormalization condition with the remarks by Hatfield that a field whose corresponding $Z=1$ is free?

A: You have pointed out that, in an interacting theory, it is standard to define the renormalized field as $Z^{-1/2}$ times a bare field. However, if you demand that the residue of the two-point function is $i$, you will certainly not get $Z = 1$. In all but very special finite theories, $Z$ has $\frac{1}{\epsilon}$ poles in dimensional regularization.
It is also important to remember that there is nothing special about wanting the residue at the particle mass to be $i$. This is called the on-shell scheme which is merely the first of many schemes that textbooks introduce. I discussed in a previous answer why it's also fine to use completely different conditions for making things finite. In short, QFTs make predictions about scheme independent quantities. Cross section as a function of energy, for example, is scheme independent. But cross section section as a function of coupling and coupling as a function of energy on their own are not.

Trump actually said he's the 'best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico'
Many Puerto Ricans relocated to Florida after Hurricane Maria and could be key in deciding the outcome of the critical swing state.
Donald Trump on Friday claimed he was the "best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico," despite personally blocking funding to the U.S. territory for years, even as the island tried to rebuild from the devastation of Hurricane Maria in 2017.
At a White House news conference, Trump announced a new aid package supposedly intended to help Puerto Rico's recovery process. The money, White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said in a statement earlier on Friday, will be used to "replace thousands of miles of transmission and distribution lines, electrical substations, power generation systems, office buildings and make other grid improvements" and "will focus on restoring school buildings and educational facilities across the island."
"I have to say in a very nice way, very respectful way, I'm the best thing that ever happened to Puerto Rico," Trump said during the afternoon press conference. "Nobody even close."
But Trump has not been good for — or to — to Puerto Rico.
In November 2018, nearly a year after Hurricane Maria decimated the island and took out its already ailing power grid, Trump told congressional leaders he didn't want any more aid being sent, even though the island was still in bad shape and needed critical help in its recovery.
Trump has also suggested that Puerto Ricans aren't even Americans. Puerto Ricans have in fact been U.S. citizens since 1917.
In April 2019, Trump called a request for nutrition assistance for the people of Puerto Rico "excessive and unnecessary." That same month, he accused the island of "only tak[ing] from USA" and its leaders of "hurt[ing] our Farmers and States!"
Months later, in June 2019, after Congress finally passed additional Puerto Rico disaster funding, Trump demanded credit for the relief even though he had spent years trying to block it.
Trump even once mused about selling the island of Puerto Rico, according to Miles Taylor, former chief of staff at the Department of Homeland Security, who has since denounced Trump and endorsed Joe Biden for president.
"He wanted to see if we could sell Puerto Rico, if we could swap Puerto Rico for Greenland, because in his words, Puerto Rico was 'dirty' and the people were poor," Taylor said in an interview on MSNBC.
And it wasn't until January of 2020 that the Trump administration finally released billions in aid to the island, months after it was supposed to.
Reporters and political experts have questioned the timing of Friday's announcement, 46 days before an election, where the Puerto Rican vote could help decide the outcome of the critical swing state of Florida.
Thousands of Puerto Ricans relocated to Florida following the hurricane in 2017, and Trump is now vying for their vote. Without winning Florida, Trump's paths to an Electoral College victory are slim.
"I heard you many times over the past couple of years say that Puerto Rico got too much money," ABC News' Jonathan Karl said to Trump at the briefing. "Just last year you said Puerto Rico is one of the most corrupt places on earth. ... You said 'never again.' You said Congress gave too much money to Puerto Rico. Why now?"
Trump responded by claiming again that Puerto Rico was corrupt, before pivoting and claiming he was simply "building that up as a great medical, pharmaceutical, manufacturing area."
"...We're going to be taking back a lot of the business that we let go for years," he claimed. "We're gonna bring it back, they were very good at it."
He added, "You have to do something about their [power] grid. Their grid is a disaster."

Have you recently received a citation for possession of drug paraphernalia in or around Breckenridge Hills, MO (or somewhere else in the surrounding St. Louis area)? If so, was the item a bong, or a roach clip, or rolling papers, or a dug-out? Did you know that the police can sometimes charge you with this type of infraction even when you are using common, household items, like a spoon? Are you aware of the fact that having a conviction of this sort on your record can cause long lasting consequences? Are you familiar with the benefits of hiring an experienced attorney to take care of the ticket for you?
WE WANT TO GET THE PARAPHERNALIA CHARGE REDUCED SO THAT IT DOES NOT SHOW UP ON YOUR RECORD!!
If there is one thing you should know about a Breckenridge Hills, MO drug paraphernalia ticket, it is that doing nothing about it will cause significant problems for you in the future. For instance, if you sit on the ticket and miss the court date, then the judge will issue a warrant for you arrest (and you do not want that to happen). Or if you plead guilty to the ticket (without first talking to an attorney about your options), then the charge will go on your record (which will make it very difficult for you to get a decent job in the future, especially since most potential employers run background checks).
But things do not have to go down this way!! We have a much different plan in mind! We want to get the ticket reduced to something minor (like for instance "littering," which does not even show up on your record). This would eliminate any of the issues described above, and give you a clean record.
Breckenridge Hills, MO is a city in northern St. Louis County.
The affordable St. Louis drug paraphernalia possession attorneys at Brinkman & Alter, LLC have been helping people get out of their drug-related charges for over ten (10) years. Our goal is to make sure that you can move forward with life without a major hit to your record. And we want to do it an affordable price. The fees for a typical Breckenridge Hills drug paraphernalia charge start at $450.


(Hamburg, Germany) The Canadian Women's Wheelchair Basketball Team dropped a 64-52 decision to the Netherlands in pool play at the 2018 World Championships in Hamburg on Tuesday. Canada sits third in pool A with a 2-2 record.
After a strong start by Canada, the undefeated Netherlands side found its groove and put on a clinic in the paint as Canada struggled to contain the formidable offensive duo of Mariska Beijer (36 points) and Bo Kramer (22 points). Arinn Young (Legal, Alta.) was the top point producer for Canada with 21 points, closely followed by Cindy Ouellet (Quebec. Que.) with 18 points.
The Canadian women play their final round robin game on Wednesday at 4 a.m. ET against Brazil (0-4).
In earlier action, the Canadian Men's Wheelchair Basketball Team lost a 79-68 heartbreaker to Poland in crossover play to fall out of medal contention at the 2018 World Championships. Poland advanced to the quarter-finals, while Canada will resume play in a placement game.
Poland aggressively attacked the basket with speed, precision shooting from the outside and a commanding presence in the key, shooting 61 per cent from the field. Despite a solid effort by the Canucks on both sides of the ball, they simply had no answer to slow the Polish offence enough to close the gap on the scoreboard.
"I'm very disappointed. They are good team and they shot very, very well and exploited their height advantage over us," said Canada's Patrick Anderson (Fergus, Ont.) "We put enough points on the board to win, but defensively we couldn't get the stops and that's sort of been our story here. We are going to have to continue to work on our offence but get a lot better on defence.
Canada came out flying in the open frame, starting off on a 9-2 run that included one of three three-pointers by Young. The skillful Netherlands team quickly returned the favour though, going on a 15-2 run to go up 17-11. The Dutch made sure to double and sometimes triple-team Young in the opening quarter to try to slow the Canadian offence.
By the half, Netherlands players Beijer and Kramer combined to score 31 of 34 points for the Dutch as they extended their lead to 10. Young finished the half with 12 points, including two three-pointers.
Young and Ouellet got hot at the start of the third quarter, bringing Canada to within just six points and forcing Netherlands to call a time out. Soon after, Ouellet committed her fourth foul of the game and was subbed out by Ducharme.
With pressure building, Young committed an intentional foul that allowed Netherlands to keep the possession and extend their lead. They finished the quarter up 47-39.
In the final frame, Erica Gavel (Prince Albert, Sask.) came into play, scoring four points off the bench. But another intentional foul by Canada allowed the Dutch to stay in front.
With just over seven minutes left in the game with Canada down just eight, Ducharme put his starters back in the game to try for a comeback. Even with another three-pointer from Young and a nice breakaway shot from Ouellet, the Canadians weren't able to stop the dominant Netherlands offence.
In the 64-52 loss, Young tallied another 20-plus point performance finishing with 21 points, six rebounds and six assists. Ouellet scored 18 points and secured seven rebounds.
Fifty of the Netherlands 64 points were scored inside the key, with 58 of their points scored by Beijer and Kramer.
Early in the game, it was clear that the height and speed of the Polish team made for a tough match-up for the Canadians. Poland converted on multiple stretch passes and fast break points to take a lead 21-15 by the end of the first quarter.
In the second, David Eng (Montréal, Que.) and Patrick Anderson (Fergus, Ont.) led Canada's offensive charge with captain Bo Hedges (Wonowon, B.C.) quarterbacking at the head of the offense. While they had multiple good looks to the basket after some great passing, they were unable to convert on multiple opportunities inside. Canada caught a break near the end of the half as Anderson completed a three-point and-one play to tie the game at 31-31.
But, Poland closed the half on a 6-0 scoring run to regain the lead, 37-31. At the half, Poland was shooting 56 per cent from the field to Canada's 40 per cent.
The Canadians got a surge of energy in the second half with Nik Goncin (Regina, Sask.) coming off the bench to score seven straight buckets for Canada, part of his game-high 25 points.
But, Poland countered the Canadian rush, increasing their lead to 13 as their field goal percentage continued to rise. Poland was up 11 at the end of the quarter.
After both teams took turns trading baskets in the final frame, Anderson hit a clutch three-pointer to bring the game within just six points near the three-minute mark. Poland responded by continuing to aggressively attack the basket though, and following a couple easy baskets in the key, they sealed the win 79-68.
Poland finished the game with precision shooting from the outside and a commanding presence in the key, shooting 61 per cent from the field.
Anderson notched another double-double on 19 points, 11 rebounds, and 8 assists.

Beginner here, Name is Reagan.
My problem is that my code doesn't compile because of "break;". It says it is an unreachable code. I feel i am doing something wrong here, and i'm almost certain it has to do with the variable type.. not sure how to do this.
This is from a method that calls for the users age.
My goal is to pass a string through my tryParseInt() method to test and make sure the input data is a integer, but keep it as a string type variable.
I'm creating a multidimensional String array to store user's data. I.e. Name; age; location.

A: break statement after a return statement is unreachable because the function exits before break statement is reached. Remove break; and your code should compile.

A: while(true){
        System.out.println("Enter user Age");
        userAge = scInput.nextLine();
            if(tryParseInt(userAge)){
             return userInfo[row][1] = userAge;
             //you don't need break here because return at above line will make function to exit - break the loop
             //break;
            }else{
                System.out.println("Please Enter an integer.");
                }
    }

A: Judge an inputting whether is an integer:
Scanner scanner = new Scanner(System.in);
try {
    userInfo[row][1] = scanner.nextInt());
    return;
} catch (InputMismatchException e) {
    System.out.println("Please enter a integer.");
}
finally{
    scanner.close();
}

and in your code, break sentence after a return sentence, so it's not reachable.

Židovská hospodářská strana byla židovská politická strana konzervativní orientace na území prvorepublikového Československa, respektive na Podkarpatské Rusi a na Slovensku, která kandidovala v parlamentních volbách v roce 1925

Dějiny

Konzervativní židovské proudy na východě státu
Strana navazovala na konzervativní židovské politické formace, které vznikaly na Podkarpatské Rusi již počátkem 20. let. Šlo tehdy o Židovskou konzervativní stranu a Svaz židovských zemědělců v Podkarpatské Rusi. Tyto ideové proudy měly blízko k československým agrárníkům a silný vliv v nich měly zájmy židovských statkářů, obchodníků a také vlivných ultraortodoxních rabínů. V komunálních volbách roku 1923 dokázaly tyto konzervativní proudy uzavřít alianci se sionistickou Židovskou občanskou stranou v Podkarpatské Rusi pod názvem Židovská strana Podkarpatské Rusi. Dočasně se podařilo utlumit vzájemné spory a jednotná židovská kandidátka uspěla v mnoha obcích.

V roce 1924 se toto spojenectví rozpadlo a židovští konzervativci se před doplňovacími parlamentními volbami na Podkarpatské Rusi v roce 1924 odtrhli coby Židovská demokratická strana, zatímco sionistický zbytek šel do voleb jako Židovská lidová strana. Už v době vzniku Židovské demokratické strany se začaly posilovat vazby mezi konzervativními židovskými politiky z východu republiky a československými agrárníky. Agrárníci v Praze totiž hodlali využít židovské konzervativní voliče na východě státu pro dosažení převahy nad socialistickým táborem, zatímco konzervativní Židé od agrárníků mohli očekávat materiální výhody, lepší komunikaci s úřady a preferenční zacházení při provádění pozemkové reformy.

Vznik Židovské hospodářské strany
Židovská demokratická strana ve volbách roku 1924 neuspěla a získala jen 9900 hlasů, ale založila politickou tradici, která se pak udržela po zbytek První republiky, tedy separátní nesionistickou či antisionistickou židovskou platformu, která si udržovala silný vliv na východě státu. Takto vznikla před parlamentními volbami v roce 1925 Židovská hospodářská strana (ŽHS). Nejprve se ustavila na Slovensku, kde ji vedl rabín Koloman Weber, předák hnutí Agudat Jisra'el. Na Slovensku postavila kandidátní listiny ve dvou volebních krajích. Pak vznikla její organizace i na Podkarpatské Rusi. Deklarovala se jako provládní, konzervativní, odmítala sekularismus. V parlamentních volbách se na východě státu utkala se sionistickou Židovskou stranou. Zatímco ŽHS získala na Podkarpatské Rusi 11 792 hlasů, Židovská strana 19 098 hlasů. Na Slovensku měla ŽHS podporu 5144 voličů, Židovská strana jich oslovila 38 442. ŽHS se tak stala neopominutelnou židovskou politickou silou. Právě kvůli odlivu části židovských voličů k ŽHS nedokázala Židovská strana navzdory celostátnímu výsledku téměř 100 000 hlasů získat poslanecký mandát.

Židovská strana reagovala na volební výsledky ostrou kritikou. Protestovala proti tomu, že českoslovenští agrárníci a jejich spojenci na Podkarpatské Rusi ovlivňují židovské voliče. Obvinila i viceguvernéra Podkarpatské Rusi Antonína Rozsypala, že Židovské hospodářské straně předal 100 000 Kč na volební výdaje. Volební soud stížnost Židovské strany zamítl, ale spory a vzájemné osočování se vlekly ještě roky. Židovská hospodářská strana mezitím zanikla.

Nástupci Židovské hospodářské strany
Politický proud založený na židovské ortodoxii, konzervativních hodnotách a spojenectví s československými agrárníky ale na Podkarpatské Rusi přežil i v dalších letech. V zemských volbách v roce 1928 se na Podkarpatské Rusi utkali Židovská strana a nově zřízená Židovská republikánská strana, v parlamentních volbách v roce 1929 pak proti Židovské straně kandidovali židovští agrárníci přímo v rámci československé agrární strany. Na Slovensku byl vývoj poněkud méně vyhrocený. Koncem 20. let 20. století se tu politicky prosadil Julius Reisz, který dokázal spojit sionistické i nesionistické politické proudy a v zemských volbách roku 1928 zde díky tomu židovská politická formace pronikla do zemského zastupitelstva.

I started creating websites many years ago for my department at the University at Albany, at a time when departmental websites were pretty much a do-it-yourself affair--and well before "branding" became the new normal for institutions. In fact, the Reading Department's website only yielded to the University's design and format when I retired in 2011. Before I took over the website, it had been created in Adobe's GoLive, and I transferred it to Macromedia's/Adobe's Dreamweaver, and later, Adobe's Contribute. Although I took courses in HTML, I always preferred programs that sat on top of it, using more natural language and editing tools to create website pages and manage them.
I can't remember when someone told me about Squarespace, but the moment I tried it out, I knew this was to be my website design engine of choice. Unlike other programs I had used that built websites on your desktop, which then had to be uploaded to the web, Squarespace's web tools exist only on their website, and their design tools were easy to use and extremely flexible (and keep getting better). Not only that, you create a website once, and Squarespace does the work of flowing it to any browser, and more importantly, to mobile devices.
First, I created my own site (the one you are currently viewing). Then, I created a small site for my personal trainer. Next, I undertook a much larger site for a non-governmental organization in the UK., and recently a site for a framing shop in Saratoga Springs, NY.
So, here's the question: can I build you a personal site? An institutional or business site? Perhaps you have a club and have been put off creating a website for it because of the high cost and interminable delays in getting it built. I can design a fully-functioning website for you, and then let you take care of it, using Squarespace's editing tools. Or I can be your webmaster, attending to the site and updating it for you. All at a very reasonable cost.


In September, I had the fortune of travelling the length of Sierra Leone photographing an expedition of 14 runners that traversed the country, completing ten marathons in as many days from the Guinean border to the west coast of Africa. Any utterance of the country Sierra Leone will often only conjure images of Leonardo DiCaprio in the film Blood Diamond, yet this little-known African nation's identity is rooted in a fascinating and tragic recent history, with the vast majority of their suffering owing to a wildly corrupt government.
The country is devastatingly poor, with over 60% of the population surviving on less that $1.25USD a day, though poverty seems to pale into insignificance when you consider Sierra Leone's last 30 years. To paint a brief picture, the country was embroiled in a violent civil war during the 90s, with amputation seemingly the signature atrocity committed by the rebel forces, the RUF. The suffering of the Civil War was a collective one that left a tragic wake, with one of our local expedition drivers telling me the tale of how his brother was murdered in cold blood by the rebels. Still nursing the wounds of the war, Sierra Leone was ravaged by the Ebola outbreak in 2014, with the disease spreading in part through a lack of understanding: many thought it had been brought about through demons and would attempt to treat the disease with a heavily alcoholic drink called bitter Kola. As an orphaned 11-year-old told me, parents buried their children and children buried their parents.
Their most recent tragedy seemingly slipped past the media and collective awareness of the Western world. I visited the site of August's mudslide in Freetown that resulted in over 1100 dead or missing Sierra Leoneons, with half of that number still buried under the mud, never to be exhumed. Due to the lack of appropriate equipment, the country's government has announced the site as a graveyard. The site is truly harrowing – boulders the size of cars are lodged into buildings and make-shift camps spill over with survivors, many of whom have lost their entire families.
One of the charities that the expedition was raising for, Street Child, had gone beyond their remit of improving education in Sierra Leone to aid the post-mudslide recovery. Travelling the length of the country, we were able to witness first hand the shortcomings of the education system and how Street Child's initiative is helping. Despite Sierra Leone's traumatic history, it seems that nothing can dampen their collective spirit and their ability to land on their feet.

Our primary training format is 2 1/2 day seminars presented by AFDMA approved instructors. Beginning in January 2017 each AFDMA instructor or instructor group was asked to form their own company that was responsible to and connected with the AFDMA but responsible for their own finances. AFDMA provides oversight and CME/CCU services and each instructor company pays for the service. While our primary desire and emphasis remains training physicians and medical students, it became clear that we needed to expand the list of professionals we accepted into our courses.
Training in the Fascial Distortion Model is provided in three modules, each 2 ½ days in length, except Module 3 which is typically only two days. We recommend that participants use the information from one module in their practice for several months before moving on to the next module. Those who have completed at least one module and are current members of the AFDMA can be listed on our website so that patients looking for an FDM practitioner will be able to access those names. After a practitioner has completed all three modules and practiced the FDM for at least a year following the completion of the third module, and are members of the AFDMA, they are eligible to take the International Certificate (IC) exam.
Module 1 provides an extensive introduction to the Fascial Distortion Model, including the theory and concepts that are basic to diagnosis and treatment within the FDM. Each of the distortions are defined and explained along with likely outcomes with and without treatment. Extensive hands-on time is an integral part of each course. Diagnosis and treatment of shoulder, knee and ankle injuries are highlighted in this course with plenty of supervised practicum time so that participants will be able to return to their offices with skills they can immediately utilize.
Module 2 provides a good solid review of the FDM followed by extensive diagnosis and treatment of the neck, back and hips according to the Fascial Distortion Model. Practicum time is an integral part of this course which provides effective diagnosis and treatment tools for practitioners to treat low back pain and sciatica as well as other injuries of the back, neck and hips.
Module 3 is typically two days and provides only a brief review of the FDM and treatment focuses on the remaining body parts not already covered in the first two modules. This includes injuries to the arms, hands, fingers and thumbs, legs, feet and toes, carpal tunnel syndrome, headaches, and more. Module 1 or 2 must be taken in order to take Module 3.
One or two day advanced courses may also be held on specific topics, such as FDM Inversion Treatments, and treatment of post-stroke spastic paralysis.
Click on the appropriate Module link for dates, locations and other details for FDM seminars. Our training philosophy is physicians first as we remain committed to bringing the FDM into mainstream medicine. To that end we are also eager to work in cooperation with medical schools to train faculty and students as well as area physicians. Please contact us if you would like to arrange either a 4-hour introduction or a Module 1 in your area.


To whisk your Christmas into full snow-capped alpine splendour, here's an easy but wowing dessert, in which crisp meringue is layered with a chestnut and ricotta cream.
Cover three baking trays with foil. (I use foil for this because it doesn't wobble around as much as paper when you're spreading the uncooked meringue.) With a lightly buttered finger, trace the outline of an 18cm circle (or thereabouts) on each foil-covered tray. You need room in the oven to bake all three meringues at once, so if your oven has only two shelves, you'll need to squeeze three smaller circles on to two trays instead.
Gently warm the egg whites and the mixing bowl (over a pan of very lightly simmering water, for instance, though take care the bowl doesn't come into contact with the water, otherwise the egg whites will cook), then, using an electric whisk, beat the whites to a stiff froth. Sprinkle a quarter of the caster sugar at a time over the whites and whisk through on high speed until the grains disappear and the mixture ends up very thick and glossy. Sift and fold in the icing sugar until the mixture is smooth, then dollop a third of the meringue mix on to each prepared foil circle and spread into a disc with a spatula.
Bake at 140C (120C fan-assisted)/285F/gas mark 1 for about 90 minutes, or until crisp, slightly beige coloured and with a firm crust. Remove and set aside to cool.
In a bowl, beat the chestnut purée, 250ml double cream, ricotta, vanilla and enough sugar gently to sweeten it, until very thick. Peel one cold meringue from the foil and place on a serving plate. Spread with a third of the chestnut cream and swirl melted chocolate all over. Repeat with a second meringue, chestnut cream and chocolate, and top with the last meringue. Whip 100ml cream until thick, spoon this on to the meringue top to make a peak, then pipe on the last of the chestnut cream in a swirl. Drizzle with more melted chocolate and serve.

Reduction in Rates by GST Council
Last Updated On: March 19, 2019, 6:34 p.m.
Recommendations made by the GST Council for the Housing Sector to promote Affordable Housing for the masses come into force
Concessional Rate of GST of 12% extended to construction of houses constructed/ acquired under the Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme for Economically Weaker Section (EWS), Lower Income Group (LIG), Middle Income Group (MIG) sections
In its 25th Meeting held on 18th January, 2018, the GST Council had made several important recommendations for the Housing Sector which have come into force with effect from 25th January, 2018. The recommendations are expected to promote affordable housing for the masses in the country.
One of the important recommendations made is to extend the concessional rate of GST of 12% (effective rate of 8% after deducting one third of the amount charged for the house, flat etc. towards the cost of land or undivided share of land, as the case may be) in housing sector to construction of houses constructed/ acquired under the Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS) for Economically Weaker Sections (EWS) / Lower Income Group (LIG) / Middle Income Group-1 (MlG-1) / Middle Income Group-2 (MlG-2) under the Housing for All (Urban) Mission/Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban).
Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme (CLSS) is one of the components of Housing for All (Urban) Mission/Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY) (Urban). Under this component, subsidy would be provided on home loans taken by eligible urban poor (EWS/LIG/ MIG-I/ MIG-II) for acquisition and construction of house.
Credit linked subsidy would also be available for housing loans availed for new construction and for addition of rooms, kitchen, toilet etc, to existing dwellings as incremental housing. The carpet area of houses constructed under this component of the mission would be up to 30 square meters for EWSA, 60 Square Meters for LIG, 120 sqm for MIG I and 150 Sqm for MIG II. The benefit of Credit Linked Subsidy Scheme may be taken by the Economical Weaker sections or Low/Middle Income Groups for purchase of houses under any project. The maximum annual income for eligibility of beneficiaries under the scheme can be up to Rs.18 lakhs. It covers a very large section of population which aspires to own a home.
So far, houses acquired under CLSS attracted effective GST rate of 18% (effective GST rate of 12% after deducting value of land). The concessional rate of 12% was applicable only on houses constructed under the other three components of the Housing for All (Urban) Mission/Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (Urban), namely (i) ln-site redevelopment of existing slums using land as a resource component; (ii) Affordable Housing in partnership and (iii) Beneficiary led individual house construction/enhancement. The exemption has now been recommended for houses acquired under the CLSS component also. Therefore, the buyers would be entitled to interest subsidy under the Scheme as well to a lower concessional rate of GST of 8% (effective rate after deducting value of land).
The GST Council has also recommended that the benefit of concessional rate of GST of 12% (effective GST rate of 8% after deducting value of land) applicable to houses supplied to existing slum dwellers under the in-situ redevelopment of existing slums using land as a resource component of PMAY may be extended to houses purchased by persons other than existing slum dwellers also. This would make the in-situ redevelopment of existing slums using land as a resource component of PMAY more attractive to builders as well as buyers.
The third recommendation of the Council is to include houses constructed for 'Economically Weaker Section (EWS)' under the Affordable Housing in partnership (PMAY) under the concessional rate of GST of 8% (effective rate after deducting value of land). This will support construction of houses up to 30 sqm carpet area.
The Fourth Recommendation of the Council is to extend the concessional rate of 12% to services by way of construction of low cost houses up to a carpet area of 60 sqm in a housing project which has been given infrastructure status under notification No. 13/06/2009 dated 30th March, 2009. The said notification of Department of Economic Affairs provides infrastructure status to Affordable Housing.
Affordable Housing has been defined in the said notification as a housing project using at least 50% of the FAR/FSI for dwelling units with carpet area of not more than 60 sqm. The recommendation of the Council would extend the concessional rate of 8% GST (after deducting value of land) to construction of flats/ houses of less than 60 sqm in projects other than the projects covered by any scheme of the Central or State Government also.
In addition to the above, in order to provide a fillip to the housing and construction sector, GST Council has decided to give exemption to leasing of land by Government to Governmental Authority or Government Entity. [Government Entity is defined to mean an authority or board or any other body including a society, trust, corporation, (i) set-up by an Act of Parliament or State Legislature; or (ii) established by any Government, with 90% or more participation by way of equity or control, to carry out any function entrusted by the Central Government, State Government, UT or a local authority].
Also, any sale/lease/sub-lease of land as a part of the composite sale of flats has also been exempted from GST. Therefore, in effect, the Government does not levy GST on supply of land whether by way of sale or lease or sub-lease to the buyer of flats and in fact, gives a deduction on account of the value of land included in the value of flats and only the value of flat is subjected to GST.
It may be recalled that all inputs used in and capital goods deployed for construction of flats, houses, etc attract GST of 18% or 28%. As against this, most of the housing projects in the affordable segment in the country would now attract GST of 8% (after deducting value of land). As a result, the builder or developer will not be required to pay GST on the construction service of flats etc. in cash but would have enough ITC (input tax credits) in his books to pay the output GST, in which case, he should not recover any GST payable on the flats from the buyers. He can recover GST from the buyers of flats only if he recalibrates the cost of the flat after factoring in the full ITC available in the GST regime and reduces the ex-GST price of flats.
The builders/developers are expected to follow the principles laid down under Section 171 of the GST Act scrupulously. The above changes have come into force with effect from 25 January 2018.
GST rate on admission to amusement parks and ballet etc, reduced from 28% to 18%.
In its Meeting held on 18th January, 2018, the GST Council had recommended reduction of GST rate on services by way of admission to Amusement Parks including theme parks, water parks, joy rides, merry-go-rounds, go-carting and ballet from 28% to 18%. These services hitherto attracted GST @ 28%. Requests were received from several quarters that amusement parks promote social wellness and beget fun and learning for children and their families in a real active entertainment and therefore, the rate may be reduced to 18%.
The notifications giving effect to these recommendations of the Council have been issued on 25th January, 2018. Accordingly, admission to amusement parks including theme parks, water parks, joy rides, merry-go-rounds, go-carting and ballet is now taxable at the lower rate of 18%.
It is expected and hoped that States do not raise the tax on entertainment and amusement levied by the local authorities (Panchayats/ Municipalities/ District Councils) so as to increase the tax burden on the amusement parks. This will ensure that the rate cut in GST is passed on to the children and families.
GST Council recommends granting relief from GST on services provided by the Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs) to their Members
Threshold Exemption Limit under GST for monthly contributions made by members for services provided by RWAs raised from Rs. 5,000 to Rs. 7,500 per month per person
In its 25th Meeting held on 18th January, 2018, the GST Council had recommended several measures granting relief from GST on a number of goods and services. One of the important reliefs granted by the Council is to enhance the limit of contribution made by members of a Resident Welfare Association (RWA) for the purpose of exemption from GST.
The Council had recommended that the limit may be enhanced from Rs.5,000 to Rs 7,500 per month per member. Services provided by RWAs (unincorporated body or a registered non-profit entity) to their members were hitherto exempt against contribution of up to an amount of five thousand rupees per month per member. Requests were received from several quarters to enhance the contribution limit of five thousand rupees per month per member for exemption.
As a result, RWAs shall be required to pay GST on monthly subscription/contribution charged from its members if such subscription is more than Rs.7,500 per month per member and the Annual Turnover of RWA by way of supplying of services and goods is also Rs. 20 lakhs or more.
Under GST, the tax burden on RWAs will be lower for the reason that they would now be entitled to Input Tax Credit (ITC) in respect of taxes paid by them on capital goods (generators, water pumps, lawn furniture etc.), goods (taps, pipes, other sanitary/hardware fillings etc.) and input services such as repair and maintenance services. ITC of Central Excise and VAT paid on goods and capital goods was not available in the pre-GST period and these were a cost to the RWA.
The Notifications giving effect to the above recommendations of the GST Council have been issued and have come into force on 25th January, 2018. Accordingly, from 25 January 2018, the services provided by Resident Welfare Association to its members against contribution-up to an amount of Rs 7,500per month per member have been exempted from GST.
GST Council recommends relief in GST on Circus, Dance and Theatrical Performances
Threshold Exemption under GST for admission to such cultural and sports events in the country increased from Rs. 250 to Rs. 500 per person.
In its Meeting held on 18th January, 2018, the GST Council has recommended that for the purpose of GST exemption, the threshold price limit of Admission Ticket for circus, dance, and theatrical performances including drama or dance, award functions, pageants, concerts, musical performances, and recognized sporting events may be increased from Rs. 250 per person to Rs.500 per person. The Council has further recommended that admission to planetarium may also been given the benefit of this threshold exemption up to Rs.500 per person.
The Notifications giving effect to the recommendations of the Council have been issued on 25th January, 2018. Accordingly, from 25th January 2018, the Admission Ticket to circus, dance, theatrical performances including drama or dance, award functions, pageants, concerts, musical performances, recognized sporting events and planetarium up to Rs.500 per person have been exempted from GST. This measure is expected to promote such cultural and sports events in the country.

Why employees at Limeade love using TINYpulse
"I love sending out the cheers for peers, because it allows me to recognize all the hard work that some of my teammates are doing, and to say things that oftentimes go unsaid."
Nick Mamolo, Inside Sales Representative
Employee Feedback at Your Fingertips
Nick Mamolo:
My name is Nick Mamalo and I'm an inside sales representative at Limeade.
Shauna Cour:
Shawna Cour, and I am the director of customer communications.
Ryan Putnam:
My name is Ryan Putnam. I'm a configuration specialist here at Limeade.
The culture at Limeade is really fast-paced. We're constantly growing. We're always hiring new people. There are always new faces as really energetic, and dynamic.
At first one they told me that they were using TINYpulse here, I was a little apprehensive, I guess you could say, but after taking the first couple of surveys, I really enjoyed it. It's super quick and easy. It didn't feel like it took a lot of time out of my day, and it was great to see the responses from the other employees.
I think the questions that TINYpulse asks with our employees are always relevant and always very specific to our culture.
What gets me excited about the TINYpulse questions is I know when I get that email, what's behind it, so I know it was our HR team strategically, thoughtfully thinking about what do we want to know this week.
One of my favorite questions was, what do you want to do when you were growing up? What was your dream job? It was great sitting around a meeting a couple of minutes before it started and we just went around the table and answered it in person, and it was a really great way to start a conversation.
I love sending out the Cheers for Peers because it allows me to recognize all the hard work that some of my teammates are doing, and to say things that oftentimes go unsaid.
when I get a Cheers for peers in my inbox, it makes me feel really good. It makes me feel appreciated by my other team members, and it's great to see some of the comments that they said, that the little things that you didn't think affected others actually did in a positive way.
I think the fact that the leadership team really is committed to putting into action those results that they see from TINYpulse is prompting me to continue offering my responses.
And I love that it's not this once a year annual survey with a thousand data points that just disappear, that they're actually our HR team and execs are listening to it and implementing things because of the questions they've asked through it.
I would definitely miss TINYpulse if my organization didn't have it, just because I think it adds a level of honesty and a level of recognition that we can give that we wouldn't be able to give in other avenues.
It's time to start changing the way your employees engage.

Pilgrims could avoid French road to Spain
Your feature on pilgrimages to Santiago de Compostela (Secret history of France: Chemin du Puy) was very interesting.
However, the article says that pilgrims from Britain wishing to take the pilgrimage had to pass through France. In fact, from Medieval times there was (and still is) a Camino Ingles starting in northern Spain and completely avoiding France.
Pilgrims from England – and from Scandinavia too – would travel, on foot or horseback, to the English south coast, or to St Michael's Mount in Cornwall, and travel by ship to the north coast of Spain to continue their pilgrimages on foot.
It saved a lot of time and effort, instead of walking the entire length of France.
This route boomed during the 14th and 15th centuries, and only declined during the reign of King Henry VIII when Catholicism was suppressed.
St Michael's Way in Cornwall is part of the network of routes that lead to Santiago de Compostela.
Philip Baker, Tarn et Garonne
Julia Faiers, who wrote the article, replied: Thank you for highlighting that British pilgrims had more than one route avail-able to them on their way to Santiago, bypassing France, if they preferred the fast-track route to salvation.
As an English historian living in France, I am intrigued by your description of the Camino Inglés and would love to visit its main sites some day.
I hope you and other readers are similarly inspired to try out some of the gems along the Chemin du Puy.

Ontario is prepared to respond to nuclear emergencies both provincially and internationally.Bruce Power's CANDU reactors have independent emergency shutdown systems that provide layers of protection against a nuclear emergency occurring on site.The company has spent considerable time and money in adding additional ways to cool the reactors should a loss of power occur at the station and the layers of back-up power fail to work as well.
Although a nuclear emergency situation on the Bruce site is highly unlikely due to the depth of defence at Bruce Power, a detailed emergency plan has been formulated by the Municipality of Kincardine, the Office of the Fire Marshall and Emergency Management (OFMEM) and Bruce Power.
Nuclear Emergency
Due to the proximity of Bruce Power, both The Municipality of Kincardine and the Town of Saugeen Shores each have detailed nuclear emergency plans for their municipality.
In the unlikely case of a nuclear emergency, residents within 10 kilometres of Bruce Power would be notified by the province and the municipality, through a telephone notification system, ALERT FM Receivers, Provincial Alert Ready Emergency Alert System and public alerting sirens, giving directives to take actions such as sheltering indoors, evacuating and taking Potassium Iodide tablets.
If the sirens sound, go indoors immediately and listen to local media for instructions.
If your instructed to take potassium iodide:
Potassium Iodide (KI) tablets are to be taken only when instructed by the Ontario Medical Officer of Health in the unlikely event of a nuclear incident involving a release of radioactive iodine.
Potassium Iodide protects the thyroid from absorbing radioactive iodine but does not shield or protect from other types of radiation.
If you're instructed to shelter indoors:
Go into your home or workplace. If necessary, inform other people to do the same.
Close all doors and windows.
Turn off furnaces, air conditioners and any other air intake/exhaust mechanisms.
Gather your family and your personal emergency kit.
Stay tuned to designated radio stations for further instructions.
It is important you do not evacuate unless instructed to do so. If you are instructed to evacuate:
Turn on the radio and find a local station at AM560, AM920, FM91.3, FM92.3, FM93.7, FM94.5, FM95.5, FM97.9, FM99.3, FM101.7 or FM106.5.
Take your previously packed 72-hour emergency kit, ensuring it has plenty of clothing, necessary medications and personal care items. Take money and credit cards with you.
Turn off furnace, air conditioning and other air intake mechanisms.
Close and lock all windows and doors.
If directed, report to the Reception/Evacuee Centre (Kincardine Davidson Centre – 601 Durham St., Kincardine).
Traffic will be directed along an evacuation route. For your safety, close the windows, shut off all ventilation in the car and listen to the radio for further instructions.
Detailed and Contingency Planning Zones:
Please click the images below to learn more about the zones surrounding the Bruce site and where the reception centre and hospital in Kincardine are located.
In 2016, Bruce Power completed an Evacuation Study of the 10 km area surrounding the Bruce Power site. An independent third party firm worked with the Municipality of Kincardine and Bruce Power to provide an understanding of the estimated time it would take to quickly and safely evacuate the primary zone in the unlikely event of need.
The study concluded showed no issues with the ability to quickly and safely evacuate the area around the Bruce Power site. In fact, evacuation time estimates were conducted for 280 unique cases and findings show that safe evacuation of the area could occur well within 2 to 3 hours which is well within regulatory limits. The study was shared with external agencies to inform plans and make available to the public.
Bruce Power continually supports public safety enhancement efforts and participates annually in drills and exercises with the Municipality, Province and external response agencies.

US President rejects call to revoke Bill Cosby's Presidential medal over rape allegations
Obama rejected the call to revoke Cosby's Presidential Medal of Freedom because of the allegations, saying there is no standard for revoking a medal.
President Barack Obama has reacted to veteran comedian, Bill Cosby's drug and rape case, condemning the act and whoever perpetrates it.
At a news conference on Wednesday, July 15, Obama declined to speak on specific allegations against the humour legend because there are pending legal matters, but emphasised that "no civilised nation" should condone rape or rapists.
"There's no precedent for revoking a medal. We don't have that mechanism," he said.
He reiterated that having sex with someone without his or her consent is rape, which should not be tolerated in any society.
"If you give a woman, or a man, for that matter, without his or her knowledge a drug, and then have sex with that person without consent, that's rape," he said. "And I think this country, any civilized country, should have no tolerance for rape."
Court documents obtained by The Associated Press have revealed that Cosby acknowledged under oath in 2005 that he obtained Quaaludes to give to women with whom he wanted to have sex. The documents weren't clear on whether the women consented to being drugged.
More than two dozen women have accused Cosby of sexual misconduct in the past four decades, and many of them alleged that he drugged them before sex.
The 77-year-old comedian, who has never been charged with a crime, has denied some accusations while declining to comment or respond to others.
A sexual assault awareness group has petitioned the White House to revoke Cosby's presidential medal, which was awarded to him in 2002 by President George W. Bush.

The Thin Air's Top 100 Irish Tracks of 2013 (35-1)
Sixty-five increasingly exceptional songs in, we're pleased to round up our first ever countdown of the Top 100 Irish Tracks of the year. Truth be told, this list could have been much, much longesear – such was the extent and quality of the output from our homegrown musical talent over the last twelve months.
From unassuming bedroom artists treading the often very thin line between absolute anonymity and mass recognition to genre-defining, decades-spanning bands that fall comfortably under "legendary" status, we've been very happily bombarded with some truly extraordinary Irish music over the last year.
Until next time… listen, enjoy and continue to revel in the good thing we've got going.
Parts one, two and three of the countdown.
35. Rory Nellis – Mind Control
When he's not busy fronting Belfast-based indie pop band Seven Summits, Rory Nellis is a masterful craftsman of soul-searching acoustic song in his very own right. Thanks to the songwriter's distinctly measured and meditative approach, each chord and word bears import; every stroke and summation inherent with a deeply-wrought resonance that reveals Nellis' deep-rooted grasp of composing a filler-free, intensely-meant single. Released in September, the exquisite 'Mind Control' is his latest and, in our estimation, greatest solo offering to date.
34. Villagers – Nothing Arrived
Speaking of masterful singer-songwriters, Conor O'Brien's Villagers experienced a very well-earned wave of critical and commercial acclaim with the release of Mercury Prize-nominated {Awayland} way back in January. The lead single to be taken from the album, 'Nothing Arrived' proved a heart-wrenchingly earnest breakthrough for the Dublin indie folk five-piece, crystallising O'Brien's ever-growing reputation as a songwriter with a wonderfully penetrative lyrical and songwriting knack.
33. Alana Henderson – The Tower
Hailing from Dungannon, Co. Tyrone, Belfast-based cellist and songwriter Alana Henderson has experienced an incredible rise over the last year. From releasing her enchanting debut EP, Wax & Wane, in February, to becoming artist in residence at the 2013 Cathedral Quarter Arts Festival, her forward-thinking and decidedly poetical brand of trad-folk has seen her lauded as one of the country's finest new songstresses – and for very good reason. We particularly enjoyed the jaunty spell of 'The Tower' from Wax & Wane.
32. More Than Conquerors – Pits Of Old
After four years, two EPs and innumerable gigs together, Belfast-based alt-rock quartet More Than Conquerors released their long-awaited debut album, Everything I've Learnt, back in September. With the band's collective and individual exploration of faith forming the core of the album's lyrical approach, the album is, in frontman Kris Platt's words, "eleven tracks of pent up aggression, frustration, bewilderment and a sense of weird belonging." The impassioned lead single from the album, 'Pits of Old', positively cemented our love of the band.
Read our September interview with the band here.
31. Rachael Boyd – You Need To Stop Looking
A collaborator with many Northern Irish acts including Silhouette and Joshua Burnside, Belfast-based multi-instrumentalist electro-acoustic artist Rachael Boyd unveiled her majestic second EP, Too High, back in August. Nicely bolstered by remixes from the likes of Sun Glitters and Kelpe, the release peaked on the bewitching swoon of 'You Need To Stop Looking', a track perfectly propelled by Boyd's superb musicianship and impressive layering of instrumentation. We have very high hopes for Boyd in 2014.
30. Alarmist – Bunda Internacionale
After a few months on the lowdown, Dublin-based instrumental four-piece Alarmist re-emerged in October with the stupendous 'Bunda Internacionale'. The lead single from the band's Pal Magnet EP, the track's bobbing instrumentalism struck a buoyant balance between the warped math-rock textures of U.S. band Tera Melos and Ethio-jazz pioneer Mulatu Astatke. More than anything, thought, the track underlined Alarmist's status as one of the country's finest ever instrumental acts.
29. Sisters – Hush Hush
Self-proclaimed exponents of "dream grunge", London-based, Limerick-derived noise pop band Sisters burst into being via their debut single 'Hush Hush' in early December. Melding somnambulant dual harmonies with shoegazey guitar progressions, the track summoned a cunningly kaleidoscopic sound of twenty years before. We expect interesting, if not very impressive things from the three-piece in the next six months.
28. Axis Of – Lifehammer
Speaking of massively promising three-pieces, Belfast-based based alt-punk band Axis Of have done much to warrant their repute as one of the most singular bands of their ilk in the country today. Taken from their critically devoured debut album, Finding St. Kilda, the downright irresistible 'Lifehammer' proved one of the most thoroughly anthemic earworms from an Irish act in 2013. Endeavour to see these guys live if you're yet to do so.
27. Crayonsmith – Chrysalis
Released via Out on a Limb records at the tail-end of September, Dublin band Crayonsmith besot us once more via their third studio album, Milk Teeth. Seeping with main man Ciarán Smith's colourful introspection and delicate indie-pop musings, any number of the album's tracks could have made it into our Top 100. All things considered, however, the pensive perfection of its lead single, 'Chrysalis', well and truly hit home for us.
26. Hurdles – Control
The only act in our countdown to be comprised of members hailing from Dungannon and Bedford, Belfast-based indie pop quartet Hurdles have drawn comparisons to acts as far-reaching as The Strokes and Two Door Cinema Club. Having whet our collective sonic appetite with the superb 'Kaleidoscope' back in May, the Niall Hanna-fronted four-piece released their urgent and zealous debut EP, Where To Start, in October. The unravelling 'Control' is our stand-out track from that.
25. Tieranniesaur – DIYSCO
Two years on from the their Choice Music Prize-nominated debut album, Dublin band Tieranniesaur unleashed the bombastic disco indie gem that was their second album, DIYSCO, back in May. Imbued with the band's trademark groove-laden, feelgood shtick, tracks such as 'Love Makes A Frightening Sound' and 'The Changeling' really stood out but it was the album's ridiculously infectious title track – think Chic meets Hot Chip and Metronomy – that properly delivered the goods.
24. Go Wolf – Voices
With 2014 almost certain to be their breakthrough year, the last few months have made for a heady and productive period for Belfast-based indie-pop band Go Wolf. Easily the most significant development for the three-piece, however, was their skilfully seductive single 'Voices' being featured on the latest compilation by French independent electronic music and fashion label Kitsuné – an imprint responsible for releasing the debut album from the band's fellow countrymen Two Door Cinema Club.
23. Solar Bears – A Sky Darkly
Released via Planet Mu records back in Mary, Dublin/Wicklow electronic duo John Kowalski and Rian Trench AKA Solar Bears moved from beyond the bedroom door in favour of the studio on their second studio album, Supermigration. An engaging and subtly euphoric release, the album showed marked progression from the duo and a broadened sonic palette veering between understated noise and motorik-driven cosmic electro. 'A Sky Darkly' was our favourite of the lot.
o7OyHcBzZLo
22. The Mighty Stef – Vampire, Hold Me Tight
Taken from their three-track Iveagh Flats EP, Dublin rock four-piece The Mighty Stef released the superb 'Vampire, Hold Me Tight' in October. Very much a taste of what's in store for the band's forthcoming Alain Johannes-produced album – set for release at some point in 2014 – the single evoked the likes of the band's main influences in The Walkmen and Primal Scream over four minutes of rollicking rock n'roll.
21. Squarehead – Crystal Ocean
Not merely content being three people who once met Morrissey, Dublin three-piece Squarehead caught us all off guard in September by suddenly releasing their second studio album, Respect. The follow-up to their stellar 2011 debut album, Yeah Nothing, it proved an unexpectedly shimmering and occasionally breathless eleven-track burst of the band's increasingly contagious brand of starry-eyed indie pop, best heard on the exceptional 'Crystal Ocean'.
20. Hozier – Take Me To Church
Hailing from Co. Wickow, Andrew Hozier-Byrne (or simply Hozier) announced his arrival with his exceptional debut four-track EP, Take Me To The Church, in July. Redolent of the likes of James Vincent McMorrow and Bon Iver, Hozier's supremely soulful blues craft proved immersive and timeless in equal measure – a fully-formed revelation perfectly encapsulated on the title track from his debut EP. Potential greatness in the making? We think so.
19. Ryan Vail – Fade
Derry-based electronic duo Ryan Vail (that is, Vail and his other half in Katie Cosgrove) have had a great couple of years bestowing upon our ever-grateful ears their supremely nocturnal "dark melodic electronica". Released in April on Belfast electronic label Champion Sound records – also home to the likes of Unknown – the spectral spell of 'Fade' confirmed Vail's arrival in characteristically entrancing fashion.
18. Ed Zealous – Telepaths
With their long-awaited debut album, Wired, primed for release at the start of February, Belfast-based electro/indie-pop band Ed Zealous released their most recent single, the spontaneous-party-inducing 'Telepaths' in early December. One of three singles to be taken from the forthcoming album, it came accompanied with the band's spectacular DIY video (below) – hands down our favourite video by an Irish band this year. Check that out below and our exclusive track-by-track preview of Wired here.
17. Darling – Echoes
New-fangled Dublin duo Gary Harding and James McGuire AKA Darling really hit the ground running back in October with their excellent and impossibly catchy debut single, 'Echoes'. Produced by English producer Stephen Lipson – responsible for producing material by the likes of Annie Lennox and Pet Shop Boys, no less – the single evoked the likes of the aforementioned Two Door Cinema Club and Ed Zealous, promising an extremely encouraging 2014 in the making.
16. Sea Pinks – Magpie Eyes
Having stepped down from drumming duties at Girls Names, Neil Brogan's Belfast surf-pop band Sea Pinks made a storming return to form in October in November with the release of the EP, Exploded View. The follow-up to the band's 2012 album, Freak Waves, the release peaked, for us, on the release's third of four tracks, the thoroughly accomplished 'Magpie Eyes'. Roll on the next full-length.
15. Robyn G Shiels – Underneath The Night of Stars
Arguably the country's finest ever purveyor of beatific acoustic doom, Kilrea-derived, Belfast-based singer-songwriter Robyn G Shiels is – all being well – set to release his highly-anticipated new album in 2014. Tiding us over in the meantime in ways that few others can so seemingly effortlessly muster, the sublime 'Underneath The Night of Stars' from the brief but brilliant EP of the same name summoned ghosts and banished demons in a deft and darkly stroke of wonderfully wistful folk.
14. Le Galaxie – Lucy Is Here
Quite possibly the county's most consistently impressive party band, Dublin dance/indie four-piece Le Galaxie released the short but stomping 'Lucy Is Here' at the start of December. Forging retro-futuristic synth work, vocoder-drenched vocals and propulsive rhythms over two minutes, the track proved an apt taster (if not distillation) of the fast-rising outfit's sound.
Check out our exclusive behind-the-scenes feature on the making of 'Lucy Is Here' right here.
13. Ciaran Lavery – American
Aghagallon acoustic-folk singer-songwriter Ciaran Lavery has long been one of our favourite Northern Irish musicians. With a seemingly inexhaustible well of incisive and inward-bound tale-telling at this disposal, he released his extraordinary debut album, Not Nearly Dark, way back in March. Made up of nine tracks of at times stunningly well-crafted songwriting, the poignant 'American' proved an out-and-out mid-album highlight for us and many others.
12. Affleck – Anor Londo
Made up of three quarters of one-time math-pop hopefuls Eatenbybears, Belfast-based electronic three-piece Affleck released their extremely encouraging self-titled debut EP in July. A sublime five-track slab of phantasmal harmonies, shuffling rhythms and subtly cascading, wonderfully-woven electronic noise, its opener 'Anor Londo' really set the ball in motion for the hotly-tipped trio.
11. Blue Whale – Was
One of North's finest and forward-thinking live acts, jazz-punk quartet Blue Whale have had a truly excellent 2013. From their triumphant rooftop "tour" at this year's Culture Night Belfast to the release of their self-titled debut EP, the band's equally energetic and experimental style melds knowingly atonal dual guitar riffs, brilliantly bobbing bass and charging, danceable rhythms – perhaps best seen on their debut single 'Was'. Simply put, we love them and think you should too.
10. I Am The Cosmos – Monochrome
Named after the Chris Bell album of the same name, Dublin duo Ross Turner and Cian Murphy AKA I Am The Cosmos unveiled their rapturous and cunningly executed debut album, Monochrome, at the very start of the year. Culminating in the hypnotic mastery of its closing odyssey 'Leaving-The Shift' and and peaking (again, for us) on its title track, the album bred analog synth textures with an otherworldly air that caught many unawares. Head-turning, genre-bending, marvellously measured stuff.
9. Girls Names – The New Life
Having bailed sun-kissed beaches for more cloistered respite on their spectacularly sculpted second album, The New Life, Belfast-based four-piece Girls Names established themselves as a bona fide force to be reckoned in the oft-too-maligned realms of existentially-appeasing post-punk of the modern age. An enthralling foray from start to finish, the title track from the album practically bordered on the euphoric. Check out its incredible video below.
8. And So I Watch You From Afar – Big Things Do Remarkable
Speaking of euphoric, North Coast post-rock quartet And So I Watch You From Afar have long been widely deemed one of the country's finest exponents of boundlessly energetic, guitar-driven instrumental rock. Upping the exuberant ante by quite some measure on their exultant third album, All Hail Bright Futures, the band forged a forward-looking sound that shed the skin of post-rock's more exhausted structural and compositional hallmarks. The result was nothing short of glorious and the trouncing 'Big Things Do Remarkable', in particular, proved… well, remarkable.
7. Bouts – 6.0
Whilst there's certainly one or two competitors knocking about, we're of the opinion that few Irish rock bands can hold a candle to Dublin four-piece Bouts in terms of sheer quality indie rock. Having honed the three-track "grunge-pop" tale (we firmly support the usage of this label in this instance), the lulling slacker surge of '6.0' – taken from the band's indispensible debut album, Nothing Good Gets Away – evoked the likes of Pavement, Superchunk and Built To Spill amongst others, proving one of our favourite tracks from an Irish act in 2013 in the process.
6. Mojo Fury – Origami Bird
Two years on from their groundbreaking debut album, Visiting Hours of a Travelling Circus, Northern Irish alt-rock demigods Mojo Fury returned this year with the ridiculously impressive The Difference Between. Veering between brash and ingenuous groove-laden riffage to simmering and inimitably anthemic lullabies, the album – easily one of our favourites of the year – exploded into glorious harmonic technicolour on its swaggering and downright insatiable single 'Origami Bird'.
5. Joshua Burnside – Black Dog Sin
One of the most distinctive and fearlessly original songwriting voices in Ireland at the minute, Comber experimental folk artist Joshua Burnside unveiled his altogether beguiling If You're Goin' That Way EP back in June. Lauded by the likes of BBC 6 Music's Lauren Laverne and Gideon Coe for his original ear and poetic spirit, Burnside (and his band) are all but Northern Ireland's one-man manifestation of the States' Elephant 6 collective, the songwriter's ponderous, autumnal musings manifesting as spirited folk charges time and again, his enviable live shows often climaxing on the terrific 'Black Dog Sin'.
4. We Cut Corners – YKK
Released via Delphi in November and set to feature on their forthcoming second studio album, Dublin indie rock duo We Cut Corners obviously took no shortcuts when composing their two most recent singles, 'Every Thief' and 'YKK'. Whilst the former certainly satisfied, the latter track's jagged chords, rolling rhythms and dual vocal harmonies coalesced to deliver a single that promises very exciting things over the band's impending second full-length release.
3. Idiot Songs – Nastasya's Tears
Calling to mind the likes of Villagers, Death Cab For Cutie and The Postal Service, 'Nastasya's Tears' by Pearse McGloughlin and Justin Grounds AKA Idiot Songs proved a beautifully executed and superbly constructed track propelled by delicate electronic beats, guitar and violin work. Two brilliant singer-songwriters in their own right (the former of the two hailing from Co. Sligo) the duo's full-length self-titled release – composed and constructed via Dropbox – was a concept album borne from their mutual love of the literature of Fyodor Dostoyevsky. Lovely stuff, eh?
2. Seven Summits – Little Twist
Belfast-based indie pop quartet Seven Summits have long been capable of writing a song gushing with instantly recognisable, masterfully melancholic chord progressions and frontman Rory Nellis' introspective lyric poise and delivery. Unveiled as part of Belfast Music Week 2013, the band released their finest one-track effort to date, 'Little Twist' in November – a track masterfully melding bossanova beats with a crescendo-like wistfulness that yields to one of the most intoxicating refrains that we've heard all year. Urgent, striving brilliance.
1. Jetplane Landing – My Radio Heart
As comebacks go, the return of Derry alt-rock pioneers Jetplane Landing this year has been nothing short of breathtaking. The first single to be released from their long-awaited fourth studio album, Don't Try, 'My Radio Heart' had us from the very first chord. Following its initial call to arms, a decade all but disappeared come the song's chugging post-hardcore verse – one of the country's most lauded alt-rock bands had returned and how. Less than three minutes in length, 'My Radio Heart' is the breakneck distillation of Jetplane Landing to the confines of one ridiculously accomplished single and our favourite Irish track of 2013.

Who's Threatening To Steal Ad Agency Business?
Google's efforts to grab a share of the ad agency pie -- online, of course, but also TV ad inventory -- needn't threaten agency giants, according to a report just released by Pivotal Research Group. A bigger threat to ad agencies: publishers and "IT services firms along the lines of Accenture and IBM, who are building platforms to help execute media campaigns, and to leverage the business and strategic consulting positions they already have with these brands," writes Ingrid Lunden.
Are you ready for (more than) some football? Next week NBC Universal will feature 18-plus hours of programming supporting the Feb. 5 big game. Broadcast and cable entities on the Super Bowl team include the Golf Channel, the Weather Channel, NBC's "Access Hollywood" and Bravo's "Top Chef" (popular former cheftestants Richard Blais and Antonia Lofaso will compete to create "the perfect tailgate food" on a pre-game show). And "Late Night With Jimmy Fallon" is even traveling to Indianapolis on what is billed as its first road trip.
And Who's The Biggest Cable News Channel Online?
It's CNN, claims -- surprise! -- CNN. According to its data, last year's total for average monthly unique visitors -- 73 million -- for CNN Digital "beat 'MSNBC by 38%, Fox News by 187%, ABC News Digital by 217% and CBS Interactive by 260%." The company tracked 2.3 billion total page views for the year, which means, it claims, it "outperformed MSNBC by 83%, Fox News by 143%, CBS News by 819%, and ABC News Digital by 1013%."
With its Q4 2011 numbers, Time Warner "easily beat analyst estimates on practically every front," writes Mike Farrell. Net income grew 44%, with cash flow up 9%, and a 4% increase in revenue. The loss of 129,000 basic video customers in the period, however, was in line with forecasts, along with its addition of 117,000 high-speed data customers and 37,000 telephony subscribers.
Mirror, Mirror.. Who's The Biggest Online Paper Of Them All?
According to comScore, that's British tabloid The Daily Mail, beating out presumptive leader The New York Times with a December user score of 45.3 million people to 44.8 million, respectively. But the Times claims the Mail total unfairly added in a personal financial site. "The Daily Mail is not in our competitive set," sniffs a spokeswoman. Whatever. Still, a good discussion of the Mail's digital strategy -- moving slowly toward monetizing international traffic -- here.
The Washington Post is partnering with the fashion-themed social networking site Polyvore for an "Oscars Remixed" contest. From now until the awards ceremony Feb. 26, the Post "will ask readers to create 'sets'–Polyvore's version of a fashion inspiration board–visually expressing who should win best picture or what a particular starlet should wear to the ceremony," writes Emma Bazilian. "The top selections will be interspersed with Oscars coverage on the Post's website, and one winner will have [his or her] own Q&A featured in the newspaper."
"Turns out rumors of Bethenny Frankel's demise – as a syndicated talk show – were premature," writes Paige Albiniak. Despite earlier reports that the show was dead in the water, the reality star's Warner Bros. show is getting a six-week tryout on "select Fox Television Stations – including WNYW New York and KTTV Los Angeles," writes Albiniak.
Time Warner launched a media research lab at its New York headquarters. Complete with "a faux living room [and] a 47-seat 3-D movie theater," it's "meant to serve as a central hub not just for testing its own shows, but also for marketers who want to learn how viewers watch television and use the Web," writes Amy Chozick. "The company hopes the Manhattan location will appeal to nearby Madison Avenue."

More He's Dead (S04E09) is the ninth episode of season four of "How to Get Away with Murder" released on Thu Jan 18, 2018. Over 45,740 TV Time users rated it a 9.86/10 with their favorite characters being Viola Davis as Annalise Keating, Charlie Weber as Frank Delfino and Karla Souza as Laurel Castillo.
Annalise when she realized she has to come and save all their asses again.
I guess it's time they stop blaming Annalise for everything. Especially after this.
could somebody tell Frank Delfino he can't just go and kill people anytime he wants to?
I don't know why but I laughed so hard at this.

Brookhaven Academy will be represented by a pair of seniors Friday in the MAIS 4A-5A-6A All-Star game.
Senior specialist Corey Case will kick and punt for the White Team in the game played at Jackson Prep. Case is also a soccer standout for the Cougars and has been booming balls through the back of the endzone for touchbacks since joining the varsity as an eighth-grader.
