Montgomery Village President Matt Brolley is hoping to take his local political experience to the state level, and announced Thursday, June 29 that he will run as a Democratic candidate for Congress in Illinois' 14th District.
That seat is currently held by Republican Randy Hultgren.
An engineer by trade, Brolley, 35, said his "rational, level-headed" approach to politics is what Washington needs right now.
Brolley, who lives in Montgomery with his wife and two children, said his goal is to be a voice for the middle class — a voice that's lacking under Hultgren's tenure in Congress, he said.
Hultgren is one of several Illinois Republican lawmakers who has come under fire from voters at different times this year for either not holding or not showing up to town hall meetings.
Still, Brolley acknowledged that the 14th District is typically a Republican base, but that's not standing in his way as a Democratic candidate.
"I know this was drawn to be a Republican district, but that was 10 years ago. The district is changing, a lot like the country is," Brolley said.
He said he's had a lot of support since announcing his candidacy and that he believes people are excited to have a "solid challenger against Hultgren".
Brolley has already received the endorsement of Congressman Bill Foster, the only Ph.D. scientist in Congress.
Those issues, Brolley said, include things like healthcare, infrastructure and finding jobs for the middle class.
Brolley said he wasn't planning to run for Congress, much like he wasn't vying for the position as village president of Montgomery when the opportunity presented itself.
In 2013, after seeing "too much extremism and not enough common sense" in his hometown, Brolley decided to run. He was re-elected earlier this year and is now serving his second term.

Louisville makes Notre Dame's Taylor new OC
Pete ThamelESPN
Louisville is expected to hire Notre Dame assistant Lance Taylor as the school's new offensive coordinator, sources told ESPN.
Taylor is the run game coordinator and running backs coach at Notre Dame, where he overhauled the Irish's running back room during his three seasons there. Taylor also brings extensive experience coaching wide receivers, as he spent two seasons in that role with the Carolina Panthers coaching players like DJ Moore and Curtis Samuel.
Taylor previously coached the running backs at Stanford from 2014 to 2016, where the Cardinal had one of the country's best running back rooms. That included tutoring Christian McCaffrey and recruiting and mentoring Bryce Love. McCaffrey finished second in the Heisman Trophy race in 2015 during Taylor's time there, and Love developed into one of the top backs in school history.
Louisville didn't have an offensive coordinator last season, and the hiring of Taylor by coach Scott Satterfield is viewed as a way to further bolster an offense that finished No. 21 nationally last season (446 yards per game). The return of talented quarterback Malik Cunningham will bring expectations of a strong season for the Cardinals following this year's 6-7 finish.
Taylor's time at Notre Dame includes guiding star tailback Kyren Williams to back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons. Tony Jones Jr. of the Saints also developed into an NFL back at Notre Dame under Taylor, who also landed top recruits Chris Tyree and Logan Diggs.
Taylor has emerged as a head coaching candidate in recent seasons, speaking with multiple Group of Five jobs the past two seasons.

Q: Open invisible download url (and after download, close it) Here's my problem :
Since 2016, I make some bots that we need to manually do UPDATE, and now, with some code in the .bat, the bot can do a UPDATE alone, but he open the browser and after download the file, he didn't close it.
I wanted to use ByteTransfer in Powershell or curl, but the download link like that: "https://drive.google.com/uc?export=download&id=4DJ8skd91lp" (ByteTransfer and curl need a download link like this: "http://myserver.com/file.ext").
What I want it's to open INVISIBLE BROWSER to download the file and close it after (only the invisible browser, for client didn't have to get f#cked by the UPDATE).
I could use Iexplorer, but the download need a confirm, and the bot (.bat) can't detect if the download are waiting 'cus need confirm.
So, can we download a file in a url without a ".ext, .bat, .txt" in the end and without disturbing the client? Like some application that's do UPDATE ?
Thank's for answer.

A: Thank's to LotPings, using Powershell in cmd, this command download the file in URL without confirm and without opening the browser :
powershell Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "'%URL%'" -OutFile "'%OUTPUT%'"
CMD use (") and powershell use (').
just need in the cmd to :
set url=https://...
set output=%systemdrive%...

Talk:1328: Update
Note that 1.) web browsers usually can remember opened tabs (and even scroll position) and reopen them automatically on start, and/or ask if reopen those tabs if browser was not closed cleanly 2.) MS Windows tries to reopen apps closed during "upgrade reboot" --JakubNarebski (talk) 07:48, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Yes, browsers can remember the last tabs you have open, but may require the user to enable that option as it's off by default (with Chrome anyway - as was my experience). I usually leave it off because I don't necessarily want the last 5 tabs I had open to open automatically the next time I want to start my browser to do something completely different. If (my) Chrome browser crashes however (or otherwise does not close cleanly), it will ask me if I want to restore my previous session, which may include multiple tabs and browsing positions. =8o) Jarod997 (talk) 14:12, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Windows does not reopen apps that it closed before an upgrade (at best it has an option to reopen Explorer windows in the same state if the user enables it.) As for Chrome saving tabs, it can be often flaky especially when using multiple windows combined with multiple profiles. This is moot since in Real Life™ users generally don't trust these features, when they are even aware of them. Ralfoide (talk) 15:19, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
While browsers remember opened tabs, it's flakey. Some browsers in the "now remembering tabs" era were sometimes inconsistent on whether they should remember tabs (Chrome), some didn't give an option to manually exit with/without remembering tabs (Firefox/Chrome), some didn't preserve form input (Opera), etc. It behaves more like a screwed-on hack rather than a fully functional feature. --108.162.240.6 14:36, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
@Jakub, thanks for bringing it up. I knew about it, but for the sake of brevity decided to leave it out. Hooray for my first explanation btw! --Akha (talk) 08:33, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
While one interpretation is that users would push back even a critical update, the cynical me read it the other way around: that most updates labelled as critical and notified with "!"s and yellow triangles are actually not that urgent and naturally the user desensibilizes. 173.245.53.201 11:16, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Note also that browsers are ones of VERY FEW application who can reopen exactly what you had open before restart, and even them usually fail to preserve form content. Also, physical problem is not likely to occur just after the patch was created: only problem which would really need immediate patching would be security problem related to virus just spreading, in which case it would probably be too late when the window appear anyway. So, in all cases, pressing "remind me later" and finishing your work as soon as possible is the most logical course of action regarding critical update. -- Hkmaly (talk) 11:18, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
It's a sad day when non-kernel updates require a reboot. Chrisp6825 (talk) 13:13, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
I think the comic has less to do with the time a reboot takes, and more to do with losing the user's current state 173.245.54.46 16:27, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
I agree with the last comment. It's not about the time it takes to reboot. It's about the current state of things. If you have a bunch of apps running in different virtual desktops, then a lot of these won't be configured exactly as they were before rebooting. By the way, updates for OS X are exactly the same, with the exception that they're not downloaded automatically. 108.162.219.57 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
My initial interpretation was that Cueball doesn't want to reboot his laptop because rebooting increases the risk of a random electrical fire. --Rael (talk) 21:58, 10 February 2014 (UTC)
Well that's why we have this twiki.... 'cause you're dumb. 108.162.229.74 02:18, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
Actually, that's a pretty smart explanation. I couldn't have put it to better words. 108.162.219.59 14:23, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
If I was faced with such an update notification, I would probably have it download and install itself, but not reboot until tonight when I'm going to shut down anyway. I find it really annoying when Windoze does things like complain about updates and run virus scans right after booting up, which just makes loading up whatever software I want to use (i.e. web browsers) take even longer. I would much rather have it use my CPU time while I was, say, Web browsing or maybe programming (but not compiling... hmm...), or, better yet, asleep. Also, Linux. --Someone Else 37 (talk) 04:23, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
"Laptop fire" reminds me of that silly but popular phenomenon in space operas: in case the own ship is hit by some enemies "rays", inevitably fire will spark from keybords and monitors in the command room. Georg 173.245.53.171 09:59, 11 February 2014 (UTC)

The usual lot of nonsense in the comments. Why don't we talk about how to improve the explanation? Arguing that browsers remember open tabs, or advertising Linux, or going into excruciating detail how you would react in this situation, is ludicrously off the point. The following points are made by this comic:
Windows is always banging on about something, usually incredibly unimportant.
Even if it is important (as here) we may just skim the explanation (because of the first point) and not even realize what it is saying
Even if we do understand it, we don't want to be interrupted during our work (or our not-work) as we hate being inconvenienced in any way
108.162.219.58 21:45, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
The nonsense is in the comic! The user knows about that the fire is almost impossible from software (mis-)function 173.245.53.154 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
Possible reference to Microsoft's monthly security patch on the second Tuesday of each month, having been posted the day before the second Tuesday of February 2014. Quetzalcoatl (talk) 22:23, 11 February 2014 (UTC)
Dubious statement in explanation
"The joke goes further because a software update mostly can't prevent any hardware failures like burning laptop batteries. This specific update is just nonsense."
It's quite possible for software to put hardware into a state which damages it. In an ideal world hardware would have protection against this but sometimes the protection is either missing or incorrectly set. This sort of thing CAN be worked around in software, if you know what the bad states are you can avoid ever putting the hardware into them.
Burning laptop batteries are an extreme example but not completely implausible.
-- plugwash
This actually happened a few years ago. A poorly-written driver (among other issues) caused some Nvidia laptop GPUs to get so hot that they'd cause the cases of some laptops to warp. 108.162.219.44 07:09, 12 February 2014 (UTC)
I think the point here is that no matter how severe the problem being fixed, the presence of a "bunch of stuff open" makes a reboot unthinkable. 199.27.130.204 (talk) (please sign your comments with ~~~~)
Two things: software can absolutely cause/prevent a fire if the hardware is capable of it. Software is what runs the controllers that handle charging for modern rechargeable batteries (well, it may be firmware, but the point is that it's not hardwired). If the charging software doesn't do it's job right, a Li-Ion battery can overcharge and literally catch fire. Likewise, it's software that tells the CPU or GPU to throttle down if it gets too hot and the cooling systems can't keep up. And, at an extreme, in principle the software could perhaps force the hardware to do something out of it's capabilities, like try to direct too much current over some internal connection, thus overheating nearby elements.
The other thing is that the latest version (or two?) of OS X will auto-resume pretty much everything when you reboot, even if it's a crash rather than intentional. I've had a dozen apps, including a webbrowser with a couple dozen tabs open, running, when my laptop crashed or I accidentally ran it out of juice. When I restarted it everything was back right where I left it, including unsaved documents and comments-in-process on webpages. I suspect that exactly this behavior is part of why Apple implemented that. I certainly know that I'm more inclined to install updates the first time I see them on my laptop for exactly that reason (vs. my desktop, which is running 10.6 and thus doesn't have auto-resume). 108.162.216.31 15:14, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
I should've said: this auto-resume behavior on OS X even succeeds through system updates (and every other update that has required reboot), IME. The only time I didn't get everything back right where I left it was with a major update (10.8.x-->10.9). 108.162.216.31 15:17, 14 February 2014 (UTC)
i think that many people are forgetting about OS X's Resume feature. InAndOutLand (talk) 03:04, 13 July 2014 (UTC)
With Windows 8, there is no option to restart when you want to restart; you either restart immediately, or Windows will do it for you 24 hours later. I've actually lost reports I was typing at work because of this, since I typically just put my workstation on Standby when I leave for the day. Boct1584 (talk) 17:09, 21 April 2015 (UTC)

Q: Detecting a bad item inserted into a std::set Say I have a custom type in my set, and the set/ordering only makes sense if all items have the same value on some property... if an item with a different value is inserted the model is screwed up and I want to protect this.
I thought maybe the comparison function might be a place we could test this (as an assert or exception) to either flag the problem and/or prevent the item getting inserted. e.g on TypeName, operator<() always returns false if the important attribute isn't equal.
Is this reasonable?

A: I guess putting it in the comparator could have issues as you've not got any guarantees when it's going to be called.  Perhaps some mythical implementation stores items in a list when the number of items is small and doesn't call the comparator until later?
Probably the simplest approach would be to wrap the std::set in a protective outer class that performed these assertions.
class MySet {
  private:
     std::set<myFunkyType> myType;

  public:
     void insert(myFunkyType type) {
        assert(!type.isFunky(), "funk violation");
        // and so on
     }

     // all other members other than insertion or mutation just delegate to the
     // underlying set

}

A: If your std::set is an implementation detail of a custom class then it should be up to your class's public member functions to ensure that invalid elements aren't inserted in your set. Otherwise, if you need a data structure to pass a collection of your objects around use a std::map instead, provide your class with a key generating function and put your error detection code there.
Remember that set elements, as map keys, should be immutable with respect to their ordering; basing ordering on mutable state smells bad.

A: The operator< idea sounds a bit fishy. It would merely mean that such elements are ordered last. x is the largest element iff x<y==false for all y, and x<x==false must always hold. But if that's acceptable to you, it's OK.

A: When in your op< you detect that you can not establish a strict weak ordering, the only reasonable thing is to throw an exception. Any kind of insert, or possible other return from op< will likely break the internal constraints of the set.
Wrapping is IMHO not really necessary, since the behaviour of your wrapped insert() would probably be the same (that is, throw an exception).
The only thing that might make wrapping more attractive is any uncertainty about whether your standard library implementation is good enough to be able to cope with a throwing comparator. I doubt that many standard library implementations are strong on exception safety at that operation.

Q: NoSuch file exception - Spark Standalone cluster I have two machines named:

*

*ubuntu1 - master node

*ubuntu2 - worker

I am trying to execute the example, so I have a jar name app1.jar.
When I submit the application, send an error.
java.io.NoSuchFileException: /home/ubuntu1/demo/app1.jar
My command line is
./spark-submit --master spark://ubuntu1-VirtualBox:7077 --deploy-mode cluster --class br.com.wordCount.App -v --name"App 1" /home/ubuntu1/demo/app1.jar /home/ubuntu1/demo/myfile.txt

Why send me this error ? The file is that directory.
Note: The master and the worker are in different machine.
Thank you so much.

A: So, I am using --deploy-mode cluster, this is the why the jar is not found in the cluster. I think that there are workes doesnt have the jar, than the solution was put the jar in each node if I want to use cluster deploy mode.

Also known as cave hunting, caving, or spelunking, cave mining is simply the practice of exploring caves and extracting the ores found on its walls, floors and ceilings. Exploring a large cave system almost always results in finding large quantities of ore, though players probably will find bigger blobs of ore unexposed, because cave generation sometimes cuts off the blob generation. Cave mining has a high return on investment, yielding more ore per unit time and requiring fewer tools (less pickaxe and shovel durability is lost mining stone, dirt, and gravel) than other approaches.
How to use silverfish in Minecraft?
The player can use silverfish to clear a lot of stone away to reveal the valuable stuff. To do this, get a bunch of silverfish in a hole, and position themselves above the hole. Most of the silverfish will go into the stone, but make sure there are at least some left visible. While standing above the leftover silverfish, throw a splash potion of poison, then a splash potion of regeneration immediately after. Every time the poison hurts the silverfish, it will call any nearby silverfish out of the stone, then it will get healed by the regeneration potion, so it can keep getting hurt instead of being pinned at 1 health. Soon, all of the silverfish will come out of the stone, and they can kill them at this point, then mine all of the minerals left behind.
What level are caves at?
It is a good idea to carry a bucket of water. Caves often contain random lava flows, and cave areas below level 10 are filled with large lava pools.
Can you replace the torches in Minecraft?
Players can replace the torches in the center of the hubs with a piece of glass and lava under it and it gives only one light less, providing that they placed them at all. They can change it for a 3×3 if they feel so inclined and have enough lava.
How to make an amphitheater in Minecraft?
Start with a basic U-shaped mine, and make an "amphitheater" down the levels until the player have a one-block space. Then, make a doorway ahead to make another amphitheater mine. This is very useful, and the player can even make it decorative by adding staircases as stairs or chairs.
What are bones used for in Minecraft?
Bones have tons of wonderful uses in Minecraft. The first thing that they can be used for is taming a wolf. A wolf is your best friend, kills animals and protects you from certain enemies. The second thing they can be used for is to be crushed up into bonemeal. Bonemeal helps crops and saplings grow.
Where do zombie pigman spawn?
Zombie pigman can appear in two ways. One is natually spawning in the Nether (one of Minecraft's dimensions) and one is when a Piglin comes to the Overworld (the dimension the player spawns in). Piglins "zombify" and turn into zombie pigman. This is a piglin. This is a zombie pigman.
How to get Eyes of Ender?
Combine the enderpearls with Blaze Powder made from blaze rods to get Eyes of Ender. Use the Eyes of Ender to Locate the naturally generated Dungeon containing the End Portal Frame. Use Eyes of Ender to activate the portal to the End. Go through the portal to the end.
Why are golems white in Minecraft?
They can even hold out flowers to the player! Iron golems are white because they are made of iron, which is a white block. #5. Zombie pigman are biracial. Zombie pigman can appear in two ways.
Is Minecraft a racist game?
The dragon is named Jean and female because that's a nickname from the developers. Iron golems are white in color because they are summoned from white blocks. Minecraft is not a racist game, it's just a fantasy video game.
Is Minecraft green or blue?
Yes, it is green. This is what you get when googling "zombie clipart". Pop culture depicts zombies with green, blue, or gray skin most of the time. That's just how zombies are in films and games right now. Minecraft is not trying to point anything out by having their zombies look like those in pop culture. #2.
Is there a zombie in Minecraft?
I honestly don't get why people look for a deeper meaning in this game! It's a fantasy sandbox game with fantasy monsters. A zombie is just a zombie.
How many inventory configurations can you save in Minecraft?
In addition to getting free stuff, you also get the options to Save up to 7 inventory configurations, and delete items permanently from your inventory. So what I'd suggest, is that you save your near-empty inventory, give yourself enough material to get back home, and then reload your old inventory.
How to prevent this in the future?
To prevent this in the future: At the very least bring a small stack of logs or wood. Since you're far underground with no pick you'll be able to make sticks and you will have stone in your inventory to make a pick. With logs you will also be able to make your own coal and more sticks to make torches.

The long awaited appeal decision from Geoffrey Hobbs QC, sitting as the Appointed Person, for IP TRANSLATOR has been announced.
As some of you may recall, CIPA's original application for registration was refused based on the fact that the specification of Class 41 consisted of the class heading 'education; providing of training; entertainment; sporting and cultural activities'. Whilst the term translation is not included in this list of services, there has been debate as to whether the class headings have covered all the goods and services in a specific class, particularly fuelled by OHIM's practice. In this instance translation services are one of the subclasses listed in Class 41 of the Nice Classification system. Therefore the mark IP TRANSLATOR could not be registered as, depending on whether class headings covered all terms in that class, it technically covered translation services and so would be descriptive.
CIPA appealed this decision resulting in an order of reference being sent to the Court of Justice of the European Union (CJEU).
The result of this reference amounts to the following guidance from the Advocate general: when filing an application covering the class headings an applicant must indicate whether the specification is intended to cover simply the terms listed or, alternatively, all of the goods or services listed in the alphabetical list for that class.
Following this opinion, Geoffrey Hobbs QC applied this ruling to his decision yesterday in relation to CIPA's appeal. The original decision was therefore set aside and CIPA was ordered to confirm that the terms in the specification of Class 41 were not intended to cover any services outside the 'natural and ordinary meaning of those words as written and recorded in the application'. The IP TRANSLATOR application will now be further examined.

Austin Bergstrom Airport Tweets Its Southern Hospitality During SXSW
Joyce Manalo, Skift
- Mar 16, 2015 2:00 pm
Airports need to be present for guests who are visiting for both pleasure and business.
— Joyce Manalo
With over 70,000 guests expected to attend the 28th edition of South by Southwest Music Conference and Festival (SXSW), Austin Bergstrom International Airport (ABIA) is on deck to inform and entertain flyers.
According to Jason Zielinski, spokesperson Austin-Bergstrom International Airport, they have a homegrown approach to engaging travelers, that has served them well on Twitter. "We grew our Twitter followers by 84% from October 2013 to October 2014 [organically]," said Zielinski. Part of this growth was due to how proactive they were in larger conversations — during peak travel months March, June, and July — like #SXSW.
The airport welcomed en route and in-market delegates with a photo of its festive baggage claim area and a link about concurrent events, travel, and security tips. In addition, they retweeted travelers who were excited about Austin as a destination, barbecue, and SXSW.
A day before SXSW's kickoff, ABIA tweeted about their 16th annual SXSW music showcase schedule to inform guests of the local bands they'll be able to see and hear as they start their journey at the airport.
These shows are separate from its regularly scheduled performances that are part of its Music in the Air program from Monday-Friday for ticketed passengers only.
Friday, March 13 was the official day that the SXSW started and in a one-day reprieve, the City of Austin allowed Uber to pickup passengers at the airport temporarily for 45 days, while Lyft already had the green light (Uber hasn't cooperated with the airport to get approval for its service there).
They tweeted about it as soon as it was public Friday evening with a link about the temporary agreement. Zielinski said, "This is a customer service decision on the part of the airport to provide our passengers with options during a very busy time."
Passengers can now use both @Uber & @lyft as temporary 45-day agreement is reached with @AUStinAirport http://t.co/AkJLz6LBba

When we say #SXSW starts as soon as you step off your plane @AUStinAirport, we're not kidding! http://t.co/bq570GkQGN pic.twitter.com/BrIdHsaSiV

Imagine being an early explorer in North America, standing at the confluence of the Mississippi River as it pours into the Gulf of Mexico. As you ponder the power and expanse of this river, over a mile wide at this point, you wonder where it comes from. If you were to undertake this adventure, your journey would take you over 2,300 miles north to a small tributary (in what is now northern Minnesota) that is only 20 feet across, and a small child could joyfully splash across from one side to the other. What would be the first thing you would want to take with you? A map, so you know where to go!
The "fear of the Lord" that Solomon refers to is not terror, but awe, honor, and deep respect for God. Solomon knows that all knowledge comes from God, and therefore, he gives reverence and respect to the All-Knowing One.
Just as a loving father would never try to teach his kids to swim by throwing them into the main channel of the Mississippi River with the barge traffic and power boats, so Solomon teaches his son by guiding him to the Source of all knowledge, God Himself. Solomon knew and understood God's character and love, and knew he could entrust his son to God's hands.
Whom do you look to for your source of knowledge? Follow Solomon's directions – you won't be led astray.

Beware of the New CFC Rules Triggering a Surprise 965 Inclusion
20Mar 2020 by Pat Geddie
The Controlled Foreign Corporation ("CFC") rules are embedded in the Internal Revenue Code. The CFC rules are designed to limit artificial deferral of foreign income using foreign entities. The CFC provides that certain classes of taxpayers must include in their U.S. taxable income amounts earned by foreign entities they or related entities/persons control. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act made significant changes to these rules.
The Definition of a CFC Before the Enactment of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
Prior to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Internal Revenue Code Section 951 provides that a United States shareholder of a CFC must include in its income its pro rata share of its "Subpart F income" regardless of whether that income has been distributed to the shareholder. Section 957(a) defined the term "CFC" as any foreign corporation of which more than 50 percent of the total combined voting power of of all classes of stock entitled to vote was owned, directly, indirectly, or constructively under Internal Revenue Code Section 958 ownership rules, by "U.S. shareholders" on any day during the foreign corporation's tax year. Internal Revenue Section 951(b) defined a "U.S. shareholder" as a U.S. citizen, resident alien, corporation, partnership, trust or estate, owning directly, indirectly or constructively under the ownership rules of Section 958, ten percent of more of the combined voting power of all classes of stock of a foreign corporation. Only those U.S. shareholders owning ten percent or more of the voting power were to be taken into account in determining whether a foreign corporation was a CFC, and a foreign corporation would fall within the definition only if more than 50 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of its stock were owned directly, indirectly or constructively by such ten-percent U.S. shareholders.
In determining whether a U.S. person met the Section 951(b) definition of a U.S. shareholder and whether a foreign corporation was a CFC, Section 958 applied direct, indirect, and constructive ownership rules to determine stock ownership in the foreign corporation. Internal Revenue Code Section 958(a)(1) provides direct ownership rules for determining stock ownership for such purposes. Section 958(a)(2) provides indirect ownership rules to determine beneficial ownership of shares when a foreign entity is interposed between the US person and the foreign corporation. In particular, stock of a foreign corporation owned, in turn, by another foreign corporation or by a foreign partnership, trust or estate is deemed to be owned proportionately by the owner's interest. Section 958(b) applies the constructive ownership rules of Section 318(a).
These constructive ownership rules of Section 318(a) require attribution of stock between certain family members and between corporations, partnerships, trusts and estates, on the one hand, and their shareholders, partners or beneficiaries or shareholder-to-corporation attribution, a minimum threshold of stock ownership.
These definitions were intended to ensure that a U.S. taxpayer holding merely a portfolio (less than ten percent) interest in a foreign corporation would not have to pay current U.S. tax on the taxpayer's pro rata share of the undistributed earnings of the foreign corporation even though the taxpayer lacked the voting power needed to force distribution of those earnings. Congress later became concerned that the definition of controlled foreign corporation based solely on ownership of the corporation's voting power was being manipulated by taxpayers. To prevent avoidance techniques, the Tax Reform Act of 1986 broadened the definition of controlled foreign corporation to include a foreign corporation if more than 50 percent of either the value of all the outstanding stock or the total combined voting power is owned by U.S. shareholders. See IRC Section 957(a). However, the definition of a U.S. shareholder based on ownership of at least ten percent of the foreign corporation's voting power was not changed by the 1986 Act.
The Changes to the CFC 10 Percent Rule
As discussed above, a foreign corporation is a CFC if more than 50 percent of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of such corporation entitled to vote, or of the total value of the stock of such corporation, is owned (within the meaning of Section 958(a)) or is considered as owned (by attribution of ownership under Section 958(b)) by "U.S. shareholders" on any day during the taxable year of such foreign foreign corporation. See IRC Section 957(a). Prior to the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, for purposes of Subpart F, a "U.S. shareholder" only included a U.S. person who owns or is considered as owning 10 percent or more of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock entitled to vote of the foreign corporation, with the above attribution rules applying. The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expanded the definition of U.S. shareholders to include U.S. persons who own 10 percent or more of the total value of shares of all classes of stock of the foreign corporation. See IRC Section 951(b).
The Changes to the CFC Attribution Rules
To prevent avoidance of the stock ownership rules by dividing ownership among related parties, Internal Revenue Code Section 958 provides detailed ownership rules and attribution rules. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 958(a), stock owned directly or indirectly by or for a foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or beneficiaries. Stock considered as directly owned is treated as actually owned for purposes of applying the direct and indirect ownership rules. Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b) provides for the rules of Internal Revenue Code Section 318(a) to apply for the purpose of treating a U.S. person as a U.S. shareholder under the ten percent test of Internal Revenue Code Section 951(b), for classifying a foreign corporation as a CFC under Internal Revenue Code Section 957, and for certain other related purposes. For example, under Internal Revenue Code Section 318(a)(2), stock owned directly or indirectly by a foreign trust is treated as considered as owned by its beneficiaries in proportion to the actuarial interests of such beneficiaries. Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b) also provides special rules of application for the constructive ownership rules of Section 318, the most important of which is that in applying the family attribution rules, stock owned by a nonresident alien individual, other than a foreign trust or foreign estate, is not to be attributed to a U.S. citizen or resident alien.
An important difference between the direct and indirect ownership rules of Internal Revenue Code Section 958(a) and the constructive ownership rules of Section 958(b) is the constructive ownership rules apply only for purposes of categorization whereas the direct/indirect ownership rules will apply in determining taxation of a CFC's income to U.S. Shareholders as well as for purposes of categorization. See IRC Section 951(a)(1).
Effective for the last tax year of foreign corporations beginning before January 1, 2018, and each subsequent year of such foreign corporations, and for tax years of U.S. shareholders in which or with which such tax years of foreign corporations end, the 2017 Tax Cuts and Job Act repeals former Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b)(4).
Due to the repeal of Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b)(4), stock of a foreign corporation owned by a foreign person can be attributed to a U.S. person under Section 318(a)(3) for purposes of determining whether such U.S. person is a U.S. shareholder of the foreign corporation and, therefore, whether the foreign corporation is a CFC. As a result of the repeal of former Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b)(4), Internal Revenue Code Section 958(b) now provides for "downward attribution" from a foreign person to a U.S. person in circumstances in which pre-2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act Section 958(b) did not otherwise provide and foreign corporations that were not previously treated as CFCs for purposes of the Internal Revenue Code may now be treated as CFCs.
Potential 965 Inclusions as the Result of the New Attribution Rules
The constructive attribution rules may cause a foreign corporation to be a "deferred foreign income corporation" for purposes of Internal Revenue Code Section 965 based on the other assets of its shareholders and related parties. Internal Revenue Code Section 965 imposes a one-time transition tax on a U.S. shareholder's share of deferred foreign income of certain foreign corporations.
Internal Revenue Code Section 965 accomplishes the transition tax by increasing the Subpart F income of each specified foreign corporation ("SFC") in its last taxable year that began before January 1, 2018 by the greater of the SFC's accumulated deferred foreign income ("ADFI"). As of the 2018 tax year, Internal Revenue Code Section 965 effectively taxes a corporate U.S. shareholder's share of the SFCs' ADFI at 15.5 percent and an individual at 17.54 percent to the extent the U.S. shareholder held ADFI in cash, cash equivalents, or certain short-term assets. For individual shareholders with a fiscal year SFC, the tax rate increases to 27.31 percent on cash and cash equivalents and 14.1 percent on non-cash.
The transition tax in Internal Revenue Code Section 965 applies to U.S. shareholders of SFCs. An SFC is a foreign corporation that is either a CFC or has at least one U.S. shareholder that is a corporation. For Section 965 purposes, the term SFC includes not only CFCs, but also entities which have at least one U.S. shareholder, but which are not CFCs because U.S. shareholders do not own more than 50 percent by vote or value.
The aforementioned rules may result in a very unwelcome surprise for the unwary. For example, suppose an individual shareholder, whether foreign or a U.S. citizen, owns 50 percent of a domestic C corporation's stock and 10 percent of a foreign corporation's stock. In this case, Internal Revenue Code Section 318(a)(3)(C) treats a C corporation as constructively owning any stock held by a 50-percent or greater shareholder, consequently, the domestic C corporation constructively owns 10 percent of the foreign corporation's stock. Because the foreign corporation has a constructive 10 percent corporate U.S. shareholder, it is a SFC, which causes Section 965 inclusions to apply to its individual U.S. shareholders.
