Mastermind Of Sales Tax Fraud: FBR Fails To Implement FTO Recommendations
Posted on August 27, 2019 Categories: Corruption News Comments are off for this post
Despite confirmation by the Lahore High Court (LHC), key recommendations issued by Federal Tax Ombudsman (FTO) remains unimplemented by the Federal Board of Revenue wherein FTO ordered to launch an investigation why Directorate of Investigation & Intelligence did not file an appeal against light sentence awarded to mastermind of big sales tax fraud scam. According to a tax expert, there is no restraining order from the Supreme Court in this specific case.
It is reliably learnt that aggrieved taxpayer preferred a constitutional petition through Waheed Shahzad Butt, Advocate, challenging the action of FBR wing "I&I" to file representation before the President against the order passed by FTO. The order passed by President in favour of the FBR and against FTO was reversed by the LHC while deciding petition against President of Pakistan, now the matter is pending before Supreme Court of Pakistan.
Sources told this correspondent that following recommendations were issued by the FTO to FBR to (i) direct the Chief CIR to refund the amount deposited by complainant, in protest (ii) direct the CIR to cancel the Order (iii) conduct an enquiry to identify if any PRAL officials were involved in the scheme and to proceed against the defaulters (iv) to launch an investigation into the circumstances why the officials of the Directorate of I&I did not file an appeal against the apparently light sentences awarded to those who seemingly masterminded the scam.
The LHC order states "A notice was issued by the respondent (Intelligence & Investigation) by which the petitioner was confronted with certain amounts. The said amounts were deposited under protest by the petitioner. During December, a news story was published in the daily Business Recorder which reported that a tax fraud scam had been busted by the I&I and in which the officials of CREST were involved. Be that as it may, the petitioner requested for the return of amounts deposited under protest. However, the respondents set in motion another proceeding against the petitioner and a show cause notice was issued for the payment of an alleged penalty in respect of the amount of sales tax which had already been deposited by the petitioner. From a perusal of the order passed by the FTO as well as the findings rendered by the President on representation filed by the respondents, it is clear that the recommendations made by the FTO was done after due regard for the entire facts and circumstances as well as by taking into account the legal proposition that no recovery of tax could be made otherwise by due process of law and by following procedural formalities.
It is indeed highhandedness on the part of the respondents to have transgressed the petitioner into submissions and to have compelled him to reimburse a substantial amount purportedly by way of sales tax due from the petitioner. In view of the above, this petition is allowed and the order passed by the President is set aside with the result of the findings rendered by the FTO, shall stand revived, the LHC ordered.


Kings, queens and in our era, politicians fight for the chair. Literally speaking, people do fight for a chair, but not just any chair, they fight for a comfortable chair. Chair is an extremely important piece of furniture and one of the most used pieces of furniture. We have dining chairs, living room chairs, office chairs, and executive office chairs, student chairs and several other varieties of chairs based on their purpose. Executive office chair, as the name suggests, serves the executive function, that is, it is a managerial chair. The executive office chair is different in appearance from regular office chairs. It is meant for the manager or the boss, so it is bigger and supposedly more comfortable, being cushioned with leather or faux leather or better material.
An office is equipped with a variety of furniture pieces. Depending on the job, an office will have cabinets, book shelves, storage bins, chairs, sofas, tables, office desk, executive chairs, conference chair etc. Every piece of furniture must meet the ergonomic standards of comfort and durability; today, most offices would also include style and appearance as a required feature for furniture. Executive office chair is meant for a manager or a person at senior position; therefor, they are bigger, with big back rest. They are different from regular office chairs which are smaller in size and mostly less comfortable than the executive office chair.
Furniture in office can be differentiated by level or position of staff it is meant for. An executive chair, for example, is bigger and more comfortable than other staff's furniture. Similarly, executive desk is bigger and more stylish than other office desks and tables. It has more space and looks more elegant. The executive furniture is mostly different from other office furniture in most occupations. A school or college principal's chair is bigger with a big back rest than chairs for teacher and other staff, a doctor's chair is bigger and has the executive and important appearance. The executive chair, by its appearance, shows that it is meant for an important person.
Executive office chairs can have a traditional or a contemporary look; they can also be custom made, according to the requirements of the person using it. The most important feature is comfort, so it must meet ergonomic standards of height to desk, adjustability of height, back support, lumbar support, neck rest, hand rest to ensure correct sitting posture. These features cannot be compromised for appearance. An executive chair can be made of leather, faux leather, fabric. You may want to sit on the chair, try it before purchasing. You may need to ensure that the material your chair is made of is not sticky and you don't end up sweating, example PU leather is cheaper than actual leather and can result in sweating. You must select a furniture store that fulfills your liking. The designer office is one such place where you will find superb executive chairs in UK.
Too much furniture in an office space can give a cluttered look; therefore, minimal essential pieces of furniture must be used. Furniture in office can serve many purposes, example a chair may have a cup holder, an ottoman can be used to sit and to store papers, an office desk can have inbuilt cabinets. Chairs are an important piece of furniture in any office, from visitor chairs, to executive office chairs, each is made considering its need. Visitors use the chair for lesser time than the manager, so the executive chair is more comfortable. After considering all aspect of an ergonomic executive office chair, you must make a wise decision for your purchase.

The 2016-2017 School Council
At Slip End Village School, our pupils are given a voice and make contributions towards how the school is run. The School Council plays a very important role in this.
Near the beginning of every academic year, each class in Years 1 to 6 vote for two pupils, a boy and a girl, who they believe are good role models and would represent the school well. These children then form the school council.
At the first school council meeting, the chair (Jack) and vice chair (Lily) were appointed and the pupils were asked to set up suggestion boxes for each of their classes; these boxes will be brought along to each school council meeting where pupils' ideas and thoughts will be discussed.
Every year, the school council run the 'Children in Need' day at school; this is always hugely successful. The pupils are already putting on their thinking hats in preparation for this year's event on Friday 18th November.
We wish our pupils all the very best in their roles and look forward to receiving their input as the year progresses.
If your child has a suggestion or comment about school life, please encourage them to raise it with their School Council member.


This project is focused on the development of new computational approaches to resolve some fundamental problems related to the extraction of quantifiable information from microscopy images. The aim is to investigate and develop "intelligent" procedures and work-flows best suited for the analysis of microscopy images of cells and tissues (e.g. for the diagnosis of cancer). To this purpose, the researcher will investigate how imaging programs and procedures can be used to identify and quantify cellular and tissue morphology as observed in digitised images of tissue samples, as well as characterising staining patterns for the analysis of the expression of key molecular makers in those tissues. By "intelligent algorithms" we mean programs that exploit context-based information and spatial reasoning so it can be used to mechanically reason about image contents, so it can facilitate further analysis on areas of interest that depart from expected ranges of normality and facilitate reaching diagnostic and prognostic conclusions about the tissues analysed.

I whipped together a quick answer to this question and then realised, that I have no idea how these tubes manipulate the numbers. A binary adder is easy to understand to the modern mind; for each bit you can use an XOR for the result, and an AND for the carry.
But what about biquinary? how does 7 + 3 work out as 0 + carry, or 2 + 3 work out as 5, or 1 + 1 = 2?
Another way to phrase the question: What digital circuit can do an addition like this:?
From a modern chip design perspective, the design of bi-quinary adders is quite simple. The addend inputs are each composed of two 1-hot signals, and the sum output is two 1-hot signals as well. This is by the nature of bi-quinary, where the quinary part is 1-hot by definition and the binary part is a 2-bit signal that is 1-hot by convention, being either 01 for "zero" or 10 for "five". The latter also being 1-hot makes things easier.
A simple AND-OR tree suffices for adding these. In a biquinary half-adder each one of the outputs in the sum is just a multiple-input OR of the ANDs of the various input combinations that result in that digit. For examples: C4 is a multiple-input OR of ANDs of all of the bit combinations in A and B that result in a "four" in the quinary part. C00 is multiple-input OR of ANDs of all of the bit combinations in A and B that result in a "zero" in the binary part.
In a biquinary full-adder there is not all that much added complexity. The carry-in simply left-rotates the quinary part of one of the addends, and any rotation off the left-hand end of that addend is an extra input to the tree that sums the binary parts, alongside any carry from the addition of the quinary parts.
That is the modern view, at any rate. It was not quite done that way back in the days of relays.
The AND-OR tree was a matrix of relays, each combination of signals opening up a specific path (to ground) for the appropriate 1-hot outputs.
Carry-in and carry-out were also a 1-hot pair of wires, 01 for "no carry" and 10 for "carry". This, in combination with the binary parts of each addend being 1-hot, meant that the "binary side" of the adder was also a simple exercise in AND-OR logic, and a relay matrix too. And, of course, so to was the rotation.
Caesaro 1946 has a diagram of the relay matrix for a 1-digit biquinary full-adder in the Bell Laboratories' Relay Interpolator. Das et al. 2015 has a more modern block diagram and truth tables for the various outputs. It places the carry-in handling logic closer to the final output, rotating an intermediate result instead of one of the addends, does not have 1-hot carry, does not have 1-hot binary parts for the addends, and uses inverters (where a 1-hot design of course does not).

e-mail: regina.huebner@googlemail.com
Regina Huebner did her doctorate in 2015 at the University of Cambridge and is presently revising her doctoral thesis, titled "State Medicine and the State of Medicine in Tokugawa Japan: Kōkei saikyūhō (1791), an Emergency Handbook Initiated by the Bakufu," for publication. Her research focuses on the cultural and medical history of Japan, transmission of knowledge, history of food, materia medica and famine in Japan, and environmental history.

This study deals with honzōgaku in early modern Japan (1600–1868), a subject Federico Marcon defines "as a field of study of Chinese origins ancillary to medicine" "devoted to the pharmacological properties of minerals, plants, and animals" (x), which only in the Meiji period (1868–1912) merged into the new academics of botany, zoology, and biology. By instancing its development, he intends to show that intellectual, economic, political, and cultural processes played a critical role in the secularization of nature and the objectification of natural species that populated Japan (5). Crucial in these processes were the commodification of plants and animals by the increasing commercialization of agricultural production, and their transformation into an intellectual commodity, which led to the objectification of nature. As specimens, he explains, plants and animals constituted the myriads of things that populated the world (banbutsu). Yet...

What are Search Network Only Campaigns?
Why Use Search Network Only Campaigns?
This guide is an introduction to Search Network Only Campaigns, how they work, what they are used for and the components specific to them. We do not cover any features or components that are used across all campaigns, such as budget, campaign name, etc.
Search campaigns are campaigns that allow ads to be displayed on the 'Search Network', which in layman's terms means; the ads that show when someone searches in Google for a keyword or related term contained within the campaign. This means that ads contained in a Search Network Only Campaign will appear within the SERPs (Search Engine Result Pages).
The image below shows the SERPs and we have highlighted how and where Search Network Campaign ads will show.
As you can see, there are four ads at the top of the page above the organic results and three ads beneath the organic results. Organic results are the non-paid search results.
Ads can vary in appearance depending on how they are constructed and the position that they appear in. But no matter how they may differ all of the ads in this image are Search Network ads. Search Network ads cannot be images, shopping products, or videos, they can use only text ads.
These are the most basic / standard campaign type and also the one that people are typically most familiar with. They are the easiest campaigns to setup and manage which makes them attractive to beginners and new users.
The Search Network is a powerful marketing channel allowing you to meet users with ads at the point when they are actively searching for your products, services, or content. The Search Network is a highly effective ROI (Return on Investment) channel, allowing businesses to both generate revenue, profit and measure this to a very granular level.
Due to the direct response nature of these campaigns they typically have higher conversion rates than all other campaign types, with the exception of shopping campaigns. But if you do not have a shop, these will likely be the leading source of conversions and revenue, when compared to other campaign types.
Search Standard campaigns allow you to show text ads in Google's search results and (if selected) on Google Search Partner sites. With this campaign sub-type, you will have access to all of the standard settings, mobile settings, ad rotation and delivery methods as well as ad extensions.
If you'd like to take advantage of Google's search network and search partners as well as creating simple text ads, this is a good campaign type to choose.
Enabling or choosing the all features campaign sub-type, as you might expect, enables all of the features available on the Search Network Only Campaign type. This allows you to use the entire suite of ad formats such as call only, dynamic search ads, and mobile app engagement ads as well as the standard text ad.
Who should use it: If you want to reach customers on Google search and our network of search partners and want access to all available AdWords features within search, this is a good option for you.
Mobile app installs campaigns both allow and encourage people to download your app by directing them to your download page within the app store, from clicking your ads. The section below covers more detail about Mobile App sub-types, all of the features available on this sub-type are available on the Mobile App Engagement sub-type.
As well as advertising on the Google Search Network you can also advertise within Google Play using the sub-type. The aim or purpose of this campaign sub-type is to allow advertisers to reach people that have your app, encouraging them to use the app when they are searching for something relevant to the nature of the app.
But for those people who do not have your app, this allows them to install the app on their Android phone (this only applies to Android devices). Ads that use these sub-type take users directly to your app install page from clicking your ad.
By linking your Google Play Developer Account, you will find it much easier to create these campaigns and manage them efficiently.
Google provide a keyword generator for ad groups when creating this type of campaign, you can enter a sample keyword into the generator. You can generate more keywords at any time by returning to the keyword tab.
We cover bidding strategies elsewhere in this guide, all bidding strategies available for Search campaigns is also available for Mobile App Engagement and Install campaign sub-types.
To find out more about Mobile App Engagement, please follow the link.
Dynamic Search campaigns are a relatively new feature that uses the content on your site to target users automatically without the need for keywords. This enables you to scale your campaigns more efficiently or fill gaps in the targeting of keywords. We discuss this in more detail later in this guide.
Bidding is still managed on a CPC basis by default and all of the bidding strategies in this guide are available for dynamic search campaigns.
Call only campaigns are designed to encourage users to call your business, the ads used in these campaigns appear only on mobile devices and provide a click to call feature. Using this sub-type limits the use of ads to call only ads and is charged on a cost per call, in the same way that cost per click works.
Using Google's forwarding service allows you to track calls to your business and thus enables granular reporting around this.
To find out more about Call Only Ads, please follow the link.
We have listed all of the ad types available on Search Network campaigns across all campaign sub types below.
Texts ads are clickable links that deliver traffic to your website. Ads are the account components that are shown to users / searchers making them unique in that respect. All other account components, such as keywords, campaigns, ad groups, etc are not things people can see.
For more information on text ads, please follow the link.
For more information on dynamic search ads, please follow the link.
This ad type is designed to target people searching on mobile devices capable of making calls directly from ads. These are custom built for people trying to drive phone calls to their business; the "call" button (see image below) makes it even easier for users to connect with your business.
For more information on call only ads, please follow the link.
These are basically text ads that direct users to an app install page or promote the use of your apps on user's Android phones.
For more information on mobile app engagement ads, please follow the link.
We describe here only the bid strategies that are available on Search Network Only Campaigns in this section of the guide. Different bidding strategies provide their own advantages and disadvantages but are typically designed to meet specific need of the advertiser, or make it easier for them.
There is no right or wrong bid strategy, for the most part, rather its which is appropriate or eligible for you to use. Some bid strategies are 'pre-sets' that can be selected and applied easily but there is also a range of custom bid strategies that can be, as the name suggests, customised.
Bid strategies can be applied to ad groups, campaigns and keywords. You can learn more about bidding strategies by following the link.
Again it is worth noting that this is not always accurate, not always relevant or applicable to every campaign (even if it is tracking revenue or conversion values). There is a period of learning that can vary from one to six weeks and optimal performance may not result in hitting the ROAS target.
Unless you choose to run dynamic search ads, you will be using keywords to target your audience on the search network. We cover all of the targeting options unique to Search Campaigns below. Bear in mind that there are other bidding strategies available at the ad group or keyword level that cannot be set from the Campaign level.
Keywords are arguably the most intrinsic part of any Search campaign, they are what will trigger or not trigger your ads. Keywords sit within ad groups along with ads… It is the keywords in an ad group that will trigger the ads in the same ad group. Thus there arises an obvious need to keep these components closely knit to maximise on their relevance to each other.
There are three main types of keyword with a fourth variation on one of those types, we discuss each below, we also discuss match types in more detail in another guide.
Negative keywords work in the opposite way to keywords, instead of triggering ads, they prevent from being triggered (shown). In many other respects negative keywords work in the same way as keywords, we discuss how they work and why they are essential in most accounts in this guide.
Negative keywords prevent ads from triggering when the negative keyword matches (based on match type) a search term that would otherwise have triggered one of your ads.
Negative keywords reduce Impressions by restricting when or where your ads can show, depending on what network they are being used on.
It is possible to add remarketing list audiences to search network campaigns and use these in conjunction with other targeting methods such as keywords or dynamic search ads. This targeting option allows you to set bids for users who have previously visited your site and are currently in a remarketing list… Thus allowing you to target them on the Search Network rather than how it's traditionally targeted on the display network.
There are various components that you will need to have in place before you can use this targeting option… You will need to have installed the remarketing tracking code to each page you want to track users on (typically this is all pages). Once installed you will need to create remarketing lists and wait for these to be propagated with data.
This is a powerful tool and requires a more in depth description, as there are various options that can affect how the RLSA ads will operate. We cover remarketing lists for search ads in more depth in another guide.
Search Network campaigns can use Dynamic Search Ads, which we cover in more depth in another guide on Dynamic Search Ads. You can use dynamic search ads in the same Search campaign using keywords to target users. We typically split these out into separate campaigns for reporting and analysis purposes.
Dynamic search uses your website content to automatically create text ad headlines and landing pages. This is great for filling in gaps in your keyword strategy or identifying new search terms. Rather than using keywords to target users, Google's organic algorithm used in ranking websites can be used to match page content to search terms. You can see the search terms that resulted in a click within AdWords and use these to either target with keywords or exclude as negative keywords.
Using the same categories available for targeting users through dynamic search criteria, you can exclude specific or broad criteria.
YouTube and other Google sites.
Shopping campaigns differ in that your PLAs can appear on partner sites that show and link to products that you have for sale on your site.
Search partners are included within Search Network campaigns by default, but you can choose not to show your ads on search partners by deselecting the "Include search partners" checkbox as you create a campaign.
If you choose not to select "Include search partners", then your ads are will only show on Google Search and 'Shopping'.
Click-through rate (CTR) is a huge factor in determining quality score, but the CTR of ads appearing on the search partner sites doesn't affect your Quality Score on Google.com.
Ad extensions provide users with more reasons to click on your ad and more locations on the ad to click. They also help to provide additional information relevant to the searcher.
Ad Extensions come at no extra costs, you will be charged for the Clicks but at no additional cost to what you would pay for a click normally. By providing additional information about your business, products, what your customers think, etc to searchers you can encourage people to click on your ads.
We cover below only those ad extensions available on Search Network Only campaigns and all of the campaign sub-types, to know more about this topic please read our guide to ad extensions.
As the name suggests, these are extensions that require you to set them up and manage manually.
Location extensions provide the functionality to include information about the location of your business. You will need to link a 'Google Places' / 'Google My Business' account to the AdWords account in order to include this information in your text ads.
Sitelinks are probably the most common type of ad extension, adding clickable links, to web pages, relevant to the ad with short descriptions. You can create loads of sitelinks typically to different product or service pages, category pages, special offers, etc.
Call extensions add a phone number to your text ads; this can be a clickable link for mobile users and encourages users to call your business.
Review extensions are quotes or paraphrased quotes from third party sources saying something about your business. These appear below the ad in quotation marks and are supported by a clickable link to the source of the quote. Because review extensions are not links, you will not be charged for them specifically, you will simply be charged for a click on the add (at no extra cost).
'Callouts' are, as the name suggests, an opportunity to call-out your selling points, services, offerings, etc. Similar to sitelinks except that they are not clickable links, they can however appear with other extensions.
Structured snippets allow you to show information specific to your products and services to searchers in your text ads. In the example below, we searched for "men's shampoos" and the ad (see below) appeared with 'types' of shampoo that they offer and may be relevant to the search.
These extensions are used to promote tablet or mobile apps by providing a link in the ad. The link in the ad can be setup to either direct a user to a description in the app store (Apple store or Google Play) or to download the app directly to the device.
Automated extensions appear, as the name suggests, automatically on your ads. These follow the same format for the corresponding manual extension version. You can see how these extensions perform by seeing the Automated Extension Report in AdWords.
These require no setup and highlight industry specific ratings / consumer survey data from independent 3rd party sites.
These only appear on ads for businesses that Google have surveyed the customers of, if they have this data then it may show, if they do not then it won't show. You can opt out of this if you so choose by Consumer Ratings often enhance CTR.
'Previous Visits' allows past site visitors to find their way back to your site and as such can improve CTR.
Seller ratings appear automatically in ads where Google have collected data about your business from your customers.
Dynamic Sitelink Extensions show links to relevant parts of your site underneath your ad. This provides more clickable links and options for searchers, thus increasing the potential for Clicks. The below is an example of how this can appear. We cover sitelinks in the manual extensions list above, all of the benefits are the same for this as for those.
Dynamic Structured Snippets are the automated version of 'structured snippets' described in the above section on manual extensions. These provide additional specific information relevant to the search in your ads.
Dynamic Structured Snippets are free as they do not provide a clickable link to the user. If you would like to opt out of this feature, complete this form.

The economic barometer warns of a recession in the United States soon
The main gauge of the health of the economy continues to sound a recessionary warning signal, which indicates a downturn in the United States in the near future. A growing number of business leaders agree that the US economy is getting worse.
America isn't officially in a recession — not yet, anyway — but the Conference Board's leading economic indicator is down for the 10th straight month, falling in December by 1% to 110.5, according to a report released Monday by a business think tank. Economists had expected a 0.7% decline, according to Refinitiv.
On average, the index peaks a year before a recession, according to the Conference Board. The index appears It peaked in February 2022Conference board note.
"There was widespread weakness among the main indicators in December, which indicates deteriorating conditions in the labor markets, manufacturing, housing construction and financial markets in the coming months," said Ataman Özeldirim, Senior Director of Economics at The Conference Board, in a statement.
Seven of the index's 10 components declined in December, and the LEI path still points to recession, according to the report.
"Overall economic activity is likely to turn negative in the coming quarters before picking up again in the last quarter of 2023," Özeldirim said.
The official arbiter of a recession is a panel of economists at the National Bureau of Economic Research, who take a range of economic indicators into consideration before making a decision — which can sometimes happen after a downturn has already begun.
But about 52% of economists surveyed by the National Association for Business Economics think there is more than a 50-50 chance the US will enter a recession this year, according to NABE's latest survey of business conditions released Monday morning.

"For the first time since 2020, more respondents expect decreased employment rather than increased employment at their companies in the next three months," NABE President Julie Coronado said in the report. Fewer respondents than in recent years expect their companies to increase capital spending in the same period.
US economic activity has shown signs of slowing in recent months as the Federal Reserve unleashed a barrage of interest rate increases to bring down inflation.
Federal Reserve officials They say they see progress on inflation But this restrictive monetary policy – and future hikes – will continue to happen.
The next two-day meeting of the Fed's rate-setting committee begins on January 31. Expectations are for the central bank to raise interest rates by a quarter point, according to CME FedWatch.
Before this meeting, the Fed will have additional economic data to review: the fourth-quarter GDP data and the personal consumption expenditures report (which contains the Fed's preferred inflation measure) will be released on Thursday and Friday, respectively.

Oldfieldthomasia — вимерлий рід Notoungulate, ймовірно пов'язаний з підрядом Typotheria. Він жив у середньому еоцені на території сучасної Південної Америки.

Опис
Ця тварина була розміром приблизно з бабака і, ймовірно, зовні нагадувала гризуна. Череп довжиною 10 сантиметрів був досить низьким і мав подовжену морду; очні западини великих розмірів були відкриті ззаду і розташовані в задній частині черепа. Виличний апофіз був досить тонким.

Задня частина Oldfieldthomasia debilitata була ретельно вивчена Джорджем Гейлордом Сімпсоном у 1936 році шляхом створення 55 дуже тонких зрізів; дослідження підкреслило численні характеристики черепа, такі як співвідношення між різними порожнинами.

Нижня щелепа була довгою і тонкою. Зуби утворювали безперервну та прогресивну серію з повною серією з 22 низьких коронкових (брахідонтних) зубів як на верхній, так і на нижній щелепах. Ікла мали різцеподібну форму. Протоконус і гіпоконус були майже ідентичними, з косою і витягнутою центральною ямкою і задньою ямкою, що зупинялася свого роду гачком, зрощеним з ектолофом. Були присутні передній і задній цингулум; моляри мали мезостиль, а премоляри трикутні, зі складкою на метаконусі.

This article examines the life stories of adults in Israel who were defined as "children at risk" in their childhood and were sent by court order to therapeutic boarding schools on the grounds of "bad parenting," "neglect," or "abuse." Researching the stories of these adults is important in view of the fact that, surprisingly, it is almost impossible to locate studies of graduates of educational-therapeutic institutions for "children and youth at risk," and against the backdrop of forced removal from the family home, i.e. external intervention in the personal life story and the personal self-concept. Moreover, the interviews with graduates who have been educated in different decades since the establishment of the State of Israel (1948) can assist in achieving a complex understanding of the impact of various types of government welfare policies (or various cultural-governmental scenarios) on personal accounts and autobiographical descriptions.
Four main questions underlie this study: 1) How do the graduates integrate the life event (forced removal from the family home and education in a therapeutic boarding school) in their life story? 2) What characterizes the life story and career of the graduates since leaving the family home and being educated in a therapeutic boarding school? 3) How do graduates define and explain the concept of "risk" in relation to their selfhood and their life story, or how do they relate to the category of "child at risk" or "youth at risk" as adults? 4) Are there variations in the life stories of "children at risk" who have been educated in different decades and under differing welfare policies, or are varying governmental-cultural scenarios about "children at risk" reflected in the personal life stories of the graduates?
Three main theoretical frameworks reside at the foundation of these research objectives: the study of youth at risk; studies of graduates of therapeutic boarding schools and out-of-home placement; and the narrative model of Schutz and Luckmann (1974). A long series of studies on children and adolescents at risk exposes the marginal experiences of children and youth at risk, as well as the suspicion and existential distrust, and focus on the present and the internalization of aggression (Sulimani-Aidan and Benbenishty 2011). Studies conducted in various countries around the world reveal that youth who are graduates of out-of-home placement are uneducated and unemployed, suffer from lack of finances (Reilly, 2003), are involved in crime (Courtney & Dworsky, 2006), and a high proportion of them relative to their peers are addicted to drugs (Mason et al., 2003; McMillen & Tucker, 1999). A considerable percentage of them were homeless at some point (Courtney & Dworsky, 2006) and many of them suffer from more psychological struggles than their peers (Clare, 2006).
The narrative-phenomenological model that our study utilizes is proffered by Schutz and Luckmann (1974) with regard to the way in which individuals integrate different events in their life stories. This model offers three types of interpretation (or what Schutz and Luckmann call "biographical relevance"): thematic, interpretative, and motivational. The first interpretation examines the events that are recognized in the life story. The second, the way in which the subject interprets that life-event that is experienced as distinct. The third clarifies the place of the event in the subject's life story and its relation to other life-decisions in his/her life-world. In other words, there is an attempt here to clarify the power of the biographical event and the motivational force that propels life-actions. Motivational relevance is described as an interpretation that can transform the self-evident life sphere of the subject.
The study is based on in-depth interviews with 30 graduates of therapeutic boarding schools that were educated in various decades from the establishment of the State of Israel (1948) to the present day. The contact with the graduates was initiated by contacting various therapeutic boarding schools and advertising in various arenas (Facebook, community centers, and welfare offices in local municipalities). Sixty-seven percent of the graduates were removed by court order and 33% by the recommendation of social workers while persuading the parents and without the need for a court order. Sixty-three percent of them are women and 37% are men, ranging in age from 22 to 55. Most of them are engaged in jobs that do not require higher education ("blue collar"). The subjects were interviewed in places that they suggested (coffee shops and their private homes). The structure of the interview included several key parts: life story ("If you had to describe your life story, how would you describe it? Anything that comes to mind, with as much time as you need. It is important for me to emphasize that for me there are no correct or incorrect answers, This is your personal life story."); self-concept (e.g., "How do you define yourself?"); the course of life after completing a boarding school education ("Describe the course of your life upon completion of studying and living at a boarding school"); the concept of risk (e.g., "How do you define the concept of 'risk'? Did you think your life was 'at risk'?); and direct questions about living in an out-of-home setting. All the interviews were encoded through thematic analysis (Strauss 1978).
The research findings demonstrate how adults not only experience the forced removal from the family home as a life event that has shattered their phenomenological self-evidence and their "natural position" (motivational interpretation in the terms of Schutz and Luckmann 1974), but rather they report a unique life story structure that includes a biographical nadir ("You cannot be any lower than that"). This life story structure emphasizes the importance of regular linear progress as an expression of the "good life" since then, and the ambivalence with regard to the State (and the boarding school), which rescued them and revived them. At the same time, the life-story characteristics include a constant reflexive preoccupation with the fear of "going backwards" to the biographical low point, the continuing need to understand the parents' decisions in light of their living conditions, and the need to invent (in the absence of familiar role models or cultural scenarios) and establish a creative attitude to critical concepts like "good parenting" and "feelings toward the parents." Finally, the concept of risk is not depicted by graduates only as a description of an "objective" situation from their past, but also as "subjectivity" that they are regularly engaged in ontologically, even in adulthood and present life. In this way their contemporary self-concept is portrayed as including two self-types that exist simultaneously under the self-definition of "the self of an adult who was a child at risk in the past. The discussion section describes the unique characteristics of the graduates' life story structure, compared to the common structures in the research literature (Gergen and Gergen, 1988; Shoshana, 2014), the phenomenological experience of several types of self associated with different times, and the implications of using the term "risk" or what we call, "Can we eliminate being a 'youth at risk'?

Q: Limit: $2^{\frac{(-1)^n - n}{n}}$as $n \rightarrow \infty$ How can I calculate this lim $2^{ \frac{( - 1 ) ^n - n}{n}}$as $n \rightarrow \infty$ ?
I know that the final answer is 1/2. but I do not know how.could anyone explain this for me please?

A: Hint: $$\lim 2^{\frac{(-1)^n-n}{n}} = \lim 2^{\frac{(-1)^n}{n}-1}. $$
One more thing: notice that when $n$ is even the exponent becomes $\frac{1}{n}$, whereas if $n$ is odd you get $-\frac{1}{n}$. In any case, $\lim \pm \frac{1}{n} = 0$.

A: Start by pulling the expression apart:
$$
2^{\frac{-n+(-1)^n}{n}} = 2^{-1+\frac{(-1)^n}{n}}=2^{-1}2^{\frac{(-1)^n}{n}}=\frac122^{\frac{(-1)^n}{n}}
$$
Now for all $n>1$, $\frac{(-1)^n}{n} \leq \frac1n$ so
$$2^{\frac{(-1)^n}{n}} 2^{\frac1n}
$$
So for sufficiently large $n$, $2^{\frac{(-1)^n}{n}}$ is arbitrarily close to  $2^0 = 1$ so the limit you want is
$$
\frac12 \cdot 1 = \frac12
$$

Q: Bound 2-norm in Julia JuMP Using Julia's JuMP library, I have a matrix-valued variable A on which I would like to impose a 2-norm constraint (equivalently: the spectral / operator norm). However I am not sure how to do this. Below is a minimal-running code of something I would like to write
using LinearAlgebra
using JuMP
using MathOptInterface
using MosekTools
using Mosek

model = Model(optimizer_with_attributes(
        Mosek.Optimizer,
        "QUIET" => false,
        "INTPNT_CO_TOL_DFEAS" => 1e-9
    ))

maxnorm = 3.0
# We want opnorm(A) <= maxnorm
@variable(model, A[1:4, 1:5])
# @SDconstraint(model, A' * A <= maxnorm^2) # Mathematically valid, but not accepted!

# Make dummy variable and constraint to satisfy
@variable(model, x)
@constraint(model, x >= 10)

@objective(model, Min, x)

optimize!(model)

A very overkill way to do this is via
@constraint(model, [maxnorm; vec(A)] in SecondOrderCone())

as this bounds the Frobenius norm instead --- but this is not preferable. I would greatly appreciate any insights into how this can be done.

A: MathOptInterface has a cone for the spectral norm:
https://jump.dev/MathOptInterface.jl/v0.9/apireference/#MathOptInterface.NormSpectralCone
@constraint(model, [maxnorm; vec(A)] in MOI.NormSpectralCone(4, 5))

TODAY IN PHILADELPHIA – MONDAY JANUARY 29, 1917
Mayor Smith today stated he fully supports the construction of a bridge connecting Philadelphia and Camden. However the Mayor does not want to rush into the project but would rather take things one step at a time. The Mayor said that will prevent a needless expenditure of money. He recommends that city councils appoint a committee and engineers to study the proposal.
South Philadelphia residents were sent running in fear for cover when a man began randomly firing his gun at passersby on 10th Street near Mifflin. The shooter was Joseph Colosi of 1919 South Alder Street. As Colosi was reloading another man took out his pistol and shot Colosi in the chest. Colosi then retreated to his home where after exchanging gunshots with police he was taken into custody. He is currently at St. Agnes Hospital in serious condition. The identity of the man who shot Colosi is not known.
In news from the southern border, Mexicans rioted on the Juarez side of the International Bridge today throwing bottles and rocks at America troops on the other side. The Mexicans were incensed that they were not allowed to cross into the United States until they took fumigation baths. About 500 Mexicans shouting "death to gringos" and "death to America" charged across the bridge but they were pushed back by America soldiers. In the last few days tensions on the border have risen. There have been a number of cross border raids by Mexican outlaws and anti-American protests in Juarez. There are also reports of fighting between the forces of Carranza and those of the Pancho Villa-Emiliano Zapata alliance.
In entertainment, D.W. Griffith's "Intolerance" continues at the Chestnut Street Opera House with 2 showings daily. In vaudeville at the Globe Theatre, Singer's Midgets headline the bill.

The goodest boy
May 14, 2021 • Animals • Dogspotting • Intimacy • Jane • Pets
With spring on its way, I feel like a creature coming out of a long hibernation. It's now been more than a year since I've paid for a haircut or eaten at a restaurant, but there are some long overdue tasks I'm getting back on track with. One of those is taking my dog to the vet.
Our vet's office has been extraordinarily organized over the pandemic, sending us emails with updates about their operations and regular reminders that Maeby is 3, 4, 5, 6 months overdue for her senior dog check-up. Just before the first pandemic shutdown last March, one of their emails included this amazing graphic, which I still think about regularly.
But I digress. These reminder emails arrived monthly, with the subject "important information for Maeby!" This sufficiently guilted me into feeling like I was withholding this important info from her, since she can't read, so I finally made her an appointment. When the big day came, I put on hard pants and walked her down to the vet's office.
Usually, when we go to the vet, Maeby and I are in the office's main waiting room for no more than five minutes before we're taken to an exam room, where she anxiously paces around, sniffing every corner. It's a solitary experience. But the vet's COVID precautions meant that most business happened outside. When we arrived, we took a seat on a bench set up on the sidewalk, beneath a canopy and heat lamp. A sign directed me to call the office to announce our arrival. Soon, two vet techs emerged from the building. "Is this Maeby?" they asked, slipping a pink nylon leash around her neck before leading her inside.
I knew I'd be waiting awhile, so I had brought a book. I read maybe five pages total; I did not expect to be completely distracted by — what a novelty! — people watching. I saw every human-dog duo entering or exiting the building, and couldn't help but eavesdrop on their business. (I briefly wondered whether there was such thing as dog HIPAA; of course there's not.)
There was Rosie, a graceful cattle dog (12/10), whose owner gave the vet techs a ten minute lecture detailing Rosie's dog park routine. There was Samson, an enormous Bernese Mountain dog (is there any other kind? 17/10!), who apparently has recently been suffering from allergies. After bringing him out, the vet tech informed his person that he weighed 113 pounds. "Not too chubby!" she said to Samson, pleased with the news. The reunions were especially captivating, people's worry or relief plain on their faces. There was the smiley Golden Retriever (13/10) returned to a young couple who immediately smothered him with pets, and the man in a suit receiving instructions from a nurse about post-surgery care for his little mini-Schnauzer (12/10), all drugged up and wearing a plastic cone around his neck.
For about half the time I was pretending to read, there was a woman who sat on the bench across from me, while almost everyone else waited in their cars. A vet tech brought out her dog, Laila, explaining that her procedure had gone well. While the tech ducked back inside to grab prescription she'd forgotten, I heard the woman talking to Laila: You did so good! We're gonna get you some bland food, like they said! It was obvious she was saying this more for her own benefit than Laila's; as she pet the dog, she took off her mask to give Laila little kisses.
It felt wrong to witness this intimacy without saying something, but I was also extremely out of practice with talking to strangers. So I settled for talking to Laila. "Sounds like you had a hard day," I said in a doting dog voice, knowing Laila's person would fill in the blanks. And she did: it turns out Laila hadn't been eating, and the vets had to put her under so they could inspect her. Luckily, they hadn't found anything worrying.
"Well," I said to the woman, "I hope Laila feels better."
"Me too!" she said, and off they went.
After a year of seclusion, distance, and minimizing contact, it was life-affirming to see strangers' raw vulnerability up close. What's more pure than love for your pet? Maeby has another appointment this week for her second vaccine dose — leptospirosis, not COVID-19, but strangely, our vaccine schedules are quite in sync — and I'm quite looking forward to another round of dogspotting.

Q: Git server - prevent all incoming pushes from any computer except one I want the git server to reject any incoming pushes that aren't from one particular machine on the local network for a specific branch (or branches).
I'm wondering if there is a solution to this or not as I've been looking around a bit about git hooks, however as far as I can tell there is very little information sent with the "git push" command to the server.
I have a solution by putting the pre-commit and pre-push hooks onto every machine that will be pushing to the repo, however I'm wanting to find a server-side solution instead, if it exists.
Thanks!

A: If your clients use SSH protocol for pushes, you can compare $SSH_CLIENT in your update hook script on server.
The branch name can be extracted from the first argument passed to the update hook.

The heart of Ute history lies in the oral tradition and is slowly fading away. This book presents the rich panorama of Ute history, from the archaeological features of prehistoric Ute cultures to elements of present-day Ute culture. A wealth of rare and historic photographs of early Utes and important leaders, and an abundance of information on tepee culture, Ute artwork, stories, songs, dances and religious ceremonies, hunting and horsemanship, wars, and treaties make this book a valuable resource for anyone.

Households could be spending hundreds of pounds on unnecessary damp-proofing treatment, according to Which? research.
Which? invited 11 damp-proofing companies – including Peter Cox, Rentokil, Kenwood, Lifecote, Timberwise and ProTen – to two houses with a total of three potential damp problems.
These visits were then analysed by three damp-proofing experts, who found that in two thirds of cases the companies recommended unnecessary or inappropriate treatment, or missed the problem completely.
In our snapshot survey, five of the 11 damp companies that visited the first property recommended completely unnecessary treatment according to the experts – some costing as much as £1,440 – when they essentially should have suggested getting a plumber to fix a leak.
In the second property, only two of the 11 companies recommended a suitable solution for the penetrating damp problem in the hallway. Also in this property five companies failed to notice the likely damp penetration/rising damp problem at the front of the house. Of those that did identify it, only four recommended a suitable treatment.
Timberwise failed to offer us good advice on any of these problems and charged us £144 per property for the pleasure of receiving its bad advice. All the other surveys were free.
Around half of the companies that visited the properties are members of the Property Care Association (PCA) – the largest trade body for the damp-proofing industry.
When Which? reported the most concerning findings to the PCA, it said it would undertake a full investigation and take appropriate action.
Liz Edwards advises: 'Before you consider calling out a damp-proofing company, take a look at our guide to dealing with damp which can help you identify what type of damp your home is suffering from and whether it's likely to need specialist damp-proofing treatment.

The Art Of Walking
Pere Ubu: Mayo Thompson (vocals, guitar, piano); David Thomas (vocals, organ, drums); Scott Krauss (horn, piano, drums, drum machine); Tony Maimone (piano, bass, organ); Allen Ravenstine (synthesizer).
Personnel: Scott Krauss (horns, piano, drums, drum machine); Tony Maimone (piano, organ); Allen Ravenstine (synthesizer).
Recording information: Suma, Painesville, Ohio (1980).
Photographer: Mik Mellen.
As out-there as Pere Ubu's early singles like "Heart of Darkness" and first couple of albums were, they were still recognizable as rock & roll, however warped. By the time of their fourth album, 1981's THE ART OF WALKING, however, all traces of the group's early proto-punk sound had been sublimated into something else entirely. Less sonically aggressive than before, though still challenging ("Lost in Art" is as noisy as anything the band ever did), the 12 songs on THE ART OF WALKING show the growing influence of Pere Ubu's newest member, Mayo Thompson.
Thompson, the Texas-bred leader of the Red Krayola, favors difficult but occasionally oddly soothing soundscapes, and his more gentle musical sense displaces a lot of leader David Thomas' sonic aggression, making THE ART OF WALKING simultaneously more inviting and more opaque than any of Ubu's earlier work. It's a challenge, but it's worth it.

Electricity prices revealed to have risen by up to 10% in the last 12 months
The cost of maintaining a house has risen by 3% since 2016
Gavin O'Callaghan

Home-owners are being forced to dig deeper than ever, as the average price of houses rose by an average of €13,000 in the past year - with electricity bills among those to have soared.
Figures from the AA revealed the average house price in Ireland increased by 6% from €215,000 to €228,000 since last year.
Meanwhile, the cost of maintaining a house also rose by 3% to more than €16,000 per year, bringing the price to roughly 43% of the average wage in Ireland.
Bono revealed to have used low-tax Maltese company to invest in Lithuanian shopping centre
As a result of the price hikes, mortgage costs have increased 4.48% with the average homeowner who took out a 90% loan left paying almost €10,000 per year.
AA director of consumer affairs Conor Faughan said the statistics reflect the struggles first-time buyers face, but added the right deals can still be found as long as people are willing to be patient.
He said: "The big story for 2017 has been rising house prices and increased difficulty for those trying to get on the property ladder this year."
"For new buyers the concern is that house prices are going up, especially in Dublin.

"However, one thing this piece of research does demonstrate is the effectiveness of shopping around.
"Across all the bills we factor into this study you'll see considerable variations between
"Spend a little time on the research and it can certainly save you money."
Despite the increases, those who bought their homes this year fork out about €5,000 less on mortgage payments than those who invested in property at the height of the boom in 2007.
Electricity prices have also gone up drastically according to the figures which say owners have averaged a 10% increase in costs since last year.
Heating prices also saw a rise by just over 2%.
Energia to hike electricity prices by 3.9% from December
Mr Faughan added: "When you weigh up every cost a homeowner faces there has only been a relatively modest increase this year but unfortunately this largely applied to the post-purchasing costs.
"Getting a foot in the front door remains a challenge for many as a result of continued increases in house prices."
Other costs taking their toll on people included TV license fees, property tax, bin charges, and phone and broadband bills which all averaged the same price as the previous year.

Shortest day then renewal. A brand new year is born.
Reminds me of Christmas except it predates it by millennium.
Don't tell mother… Christ birthday is really an ancient heathen festivity cop opted by a middle eastern cult . It might make her question what else in our society is actually not based on the Christen paradigm.
Indeed, I believe christmas was co-opted from the Yule festival which traditionally begins at the solstice and lasted for 12 days (the 12 days of christmas come from this I think).
In the UK a little more prominence is given to the solstices than in NZ, even in terms of the seasons they have two starts to each season, they have the meteorological start (for winter this is 1 December) and the astrological start (for winter/summer it is the solstice, for spring/autumn it is the equinox). This is usually noted when discussing the seasons.
So, for those who wish to go by the astrological start of the seasons today (21 December) is the official start of Winter (in Northern Hemisphere) and Summer (in southern hemisphere).
Centuries of fieldwork since show the monument was more than a millennium in the making, starting out 5,000 years ago as a circular earthen bank and ditch. A complicated pattern of wooden posts was replaced in about 2600 B.C. by 80 dolerite bluestones from Wales that were rearranged at least three times once the larger sarsen stones were added several hundred years later. These huge sandstone blocks, each weighing around 25 tons, were transported some 19 miles (30 kilometers) to create a continuous outer circle with five trilithons (pairs of uprights with a lintel on top) forming a horseshoe within. It's been estimated that it took well over 20 million hours to construct Stonehenge.
Modern debate over the monument's meaning has two main camps: those who see it as a holy site, and others who believe it represents a scientific observatory. Both camps base their theories on the site's celestial influence, with alignments to the sun and moon taken as evidence of rituals linked to the changing seasons and the summer and winter solstices. Alternatively, alignments identified particularly with stars point to a megalithic calendar used for working out dates or to reflect or predict astronomical events such as solar eclipses.
One tough lady, she wouldn't let"bone spurs" stop her serving her country.
Longest day of the year has passed. Winter is on it's way 🙂 Safe Holidays to all.
For me it is summer on its way…. I can't wait.
Safe holidays and travels to everyone, and lets hope no drones disrupt your holiday plans.
Though to be fair, apart from the early nights it hasn't been too bad so far this winter, last year it was freezing by now, and we had already had snow at the beginning of December.
Rouxle Le Roux is on the front page of the Herald, saying that she's not a heartless psychopath, that she prays for the dead boy's family and wants to make it right.
In her defense, she has just graduated as a boat crew member.
She must be a fool if she imagines that she can make it right. She can't bring her victim back to life, and nothing else would 'make it right'.
I was a hit and run victim, and the two women who sped away leaving me injured and unconscious on the road couldn't have made even what they did right, even if they'd wanted to, which they didn't.
Were they caught and prosecuted?
No. The only witness had to make the decision to see if I was still alive and couldn't stop them or get their number.
They had the gall to send someone to the hospital, claiming that she had seen the crash and bringing flowers. She had 'seen it' in a different place and seemed very nervous. I was still groggy so didn't catch on that this was a catspaw, sent to see if (a) I was alive (b) what I remembered.
Hang on, the boy killed rode through a red light with headphones on and no helmet. I get it that she didn't stop but I don't get it that she was responsible for his death. I think his mother is trying to displace some of her own guilt.
I wish that I could say that I was never stupid on a bike at 15; we all were, I suspect. We used to sail down a steep hill, look mum, no brakes. You couldn't pay me enough to do that now, especially when I think what would have happened had we not slammed on the brakes before we reached the busy intersection.
He was stupid, but he didn't deserve the death penalty…and a boy on a bike would be fairly visible. I think that she knew that she'd hit him and carried on. She must have.
Even when a car hits a person, it makes a loud bang.
He was stupid and is dead. His mother let him ride without a helmet wearing headphones so he was oblivious to other traffic. That was appallingly stupid too.
A boy on a bike is not very visible. Most cyclist vs car accidents occur because the driver doesn't see the cyclist. We don't know what obstructions and distractions pertained. Charging through a red light on a bike into the path of a car is asking for death.
Yes, she heard the bang and probably got a glimpse of something. Certainly she should have stopped and deserved prosecution for that. But that's all in my book.
My mother didn't 'let me' ride down the steep hill, and she didn't 'let' my brother go to pubs underage…but we did these things. If you did nothing stupid as a teenager, you must have been a member of a small minority.
I think that it would be difficult not to see something that you went straight into.


Conflict Minerals Compliance Statement - Stanley Manufacturing Company Inc.
Stanley Mfg. Company is concerned that the trade of conflict minerals mined in the eastern provinces of the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) may be fueling human rights atrocities in the region. As a result, we support the actions of governments and organizations to increase supply chain transparency and enable companies to source conflict-free minerals.
On August 22, 2012, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approved the final rule regarding the sourcing of conflict minerals under Section 1502 of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act. Under this rule, publicly traded companies must report to the SEC the presence of conflict minerals originating in the DRC or adjoining countries in the products they manufacture or contract to manufacture if the conflict minerals are necessary to the functionality or production of a product. Stanley Mfg. Company supports our SEC clients in polling and auditing our supply chain for information to this effect.
While almost none of our products contain 3TG minerals (less than 10% of products by revenue and less than 10% content in those products) we have identified the sources for these minerals as compliant from conflict-free smelters. Stanley Mfg. Company is committed to ensuring no materials we purchase or use originate in DRC conflict zones and our supplier are expected to do the same by sending a reporting template identifying smelters used or by signing a declaration that no conflict minerals are used in the products provided to us.
