Replace the ALL personal credits/deductions with one big deduction of $30K, for adults only (over 18) since this amount covers child credits. Tax everything over that amount at 35% (25% fed + 10% prov). Tax dividends and CPI adjusted capital gains (for assets held longer than a year) at 100%. (BTW, this would remove the distinction between capital gains and ordinary income.) Pay an amount equal to the basic amount of $30K x the tax rate of 35%, i.e. $10,500 as basic income and claw it back at the same 35% rate. So by the time your income is $30K, it's all clawed back and you're not paying tax, and your tax rate continues to be 35% for amounts over that. The removes the disincentivizing clawback rates now inherent in today's welfare. Note also that paying the basic amount as negative tax is exactly equivalent to making it transferrable betweeen spouses. Also note that 10,500 is not as lucrative as the amount in Wynne's program, so there's more incentive to get out and supplement it.

Charlie Bruce Hi Michig... I noticed your work referencing and expanding the article Charlie Bruce - good job. You may not be aware that the DYK project has recently adopted new rules allowing nomination of newly-referenced BLPs that have been two-fold expanded. This article is close to qualifying - it needs expanding by about 300 characters, plus a reference in the currently unreferenced section, and a suitable hook. With the article so close to qualifying, I thought you might like to consider putting in the little bit of extra effort to needed for a nom and a possible DYK credit / main page appearance. Regards,

Pt. 2 This attitude---that women were somehow "mutilated men" was shockingly commonplace and remained so throughout the several centuries. It certainly was a teaching utilized against women in religious houses of formation preparing men for the priesthood. -------------------------- Citations Galen, 'De usu parium' [On the Use of the Parts of the Body], 14.6-7; trans. Mary r. Lefkowitz and Maureen B. Fant WOMEN'S LIFE IN GREECE & ROME: A SOURCEBOOK IN TRANSLATION. 2nd ed. [Baltimore: John Hopkins Press, 1992]. Patricia Cox Miller, ed. WOMEN IN EARLY CHRISTIANITY: TRANSLATION FROM GREEK TEXTS [Washington: Catholic University of America Press, 2005] Gillian Clark, WOMEN IN LATE ANTIQUITY: PAGAN AND CHRITIAN LIFESTYLES [New York University Press, 1994]. These ideas were taught for almost 1500 years in seminaries. Women couldn't be priests, because they lacked the necessary part [male sex organ]. In our own world today, women were faced with the rulings of JP II.

Wireless communication technology is progressing every day and accompanying that progress, various mobile telephone formats have appeared, including second-generation mobile phone formats, third-generation mobile phone formats and 3.9-generation mobile phone formats. Second-generation mobile formats include the GSM (Global System for Mobile communications) format, the IS-95 format and the PDC (Personal Digital Cellular) format. Diversity reception technology, which is one type of wireless communication technology, has been practically used in mobile phone handsets using the GSM format and the IS-95 format. In addition, diversity reception technology in the PDC format is disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3101437. Diversity reception technology includes (1) antenna diversity technology where an antenna with a high reception level is selected from a plurality of antennas, and (2) synthesis diversity technology where optimum data is decoded by synthesizing or switching received signals on the strength and phase of signals received from a plurality of antennas. On the other hand, MIMO (Multi Input Multi Output) technology which is equipped with a plurality of antennas for both the sending side and the receiving side and which accomplishes high-speed, large-volume information transmissions has been practically used in wireless communications devices on the wireless LAN (Local Area Network) 802.11n format. Among the third generation mobile phone formats are the W-CDMA (Wide-Band Code Division Multiplex Access) format and cdma 2000-1x. With the W-CDMA format or cdma 2000-1x, handover technology has been commercialized for moving between base stations without interrupting communications. Handover technology that determines the magnitude of the reception level and hands over communications from a cell of a base station capable of sending and receiving the signal to a cell of another base station is disclosed in Unexamined Japanese Patent Application KOKAI Publication No. 2009-111644. Among 3.9-generation mobile phone formats is the LTE (Long Term Evolution) format. With the LTE format, MIMO technology using four receiving antennas is employed and handover technology is also standardized. There is an LTE-GSM dual mode transceiver that supports both the LTE format and the GSM format. With an LTE-GSM dual mode transceiver, when for example a mobile phone existing in a cell of a first base station using the LTE format is handed over to a cell of a second base station using the GSM format, it is necessary to accurately monitor the reception level of the signal received from the second base station. However, the diversity reception technology disclosed in Japanese Patent No. 3101437 and the handover technology disclosed in Unexamined Japanese Patent Application KOKAI Publication No. 2009-111644 cannot accurately monitor the reception level of signals received from a first base station and a second base station with differing wireless formats. In consideration of the foregoing, it is an exemplary object of the present invention to provide a wireless communications device that can monitor the reception level of signals received from a plurality of base stations with differing wireless formats, and a method and program for determining reception levels in the wireless communications device.

In half an hour I've created a new page (translated from Russian involvement in the Syrian Civil War) which has been accepted by locals without any fuss. Pls note I that am not a native Ukrainian speaker. Still the MT with my minor corrections has passed through. I plan to finish translating this article into Ukrainian as a test. The real fun will start when I translate it into Russian, wich is my final goal of exersise. My home project is Russian but now I am blocked for adding too much unwanted stuff in the Syrian topic. The Blok expires next week, so please be prepared for more questions by then. Cheers and many thanks.

I think most posters miss the obvious point of Trump telling blatant lies and that is his followers don't care if his views are true or not. He can say anything he wants and his uneducated, poorly read voters will rally behind him. What he will lose though are those that wanted change, read newspapers and now think he is a buffoon. Hopefully they will pull their support and he will either be impeached or badly lose the election in 2020.

Monday, April 5, 2010 Inspiration From Behind Today I was driving home from work and noticed a truck in front of me, one lane over. It was actually the truck's camper I noticed, truth be told, which looked like Paul Bunyan's playpen if he went to a daycare that wasn't up to code. The wooden slats were covered in bumper stickers of varying colors and sizes. What I have to assume was a strategic move to ensure maximum readership, the best sticker of the bunch was placed in the top right-hand corner (which we all know from Google analysis is the most effective spot). It said, "Don't be a dick." Yeah, I thought. I'm with you, buddy. Now, this was a sentiment I support. It wasn't political (there was no Dick Cheney photo), it wasn't a band (like Citizen Dick) and it didn't have a web site promoted underneath. I took it as a proverb of sorts, probably more colorful than Jesus would like, but with the same kind of heart. I started to look for an image of this particular bumper sticker online so I could post it here, but after three unsuccessful tries I started to get a gnawing feeling in my stomach. This is my work laptop I'm writing on, and I really don't want to have to explain to someone why I kept typing "dick" into a search engine after hours. Who's with me here? What stuck with me most is there's got to be a story behind this. Most people post a sticker that announces their political persuasion, their vanity about their kids' grades, their desire to pee on a [insert your brand here] vehicle, or what their stick figure family would look like. I don't often see a sticker with a good lesson for us all on the back of a truck camper. (Although I did find it polite that one was open about the fact that he does brake for hookers; it's always good to know when a large vehicle is coming to a stop. Thanks for the heads up!) So I'm thinking either the guy driving had such a bad experience, SUCH a dick in his life that he felt personally responsible from preventing it from happening to someone else...or he is fully aware he is a horrible driver, plans to continue driving badly, and is warning you upfront not to succumb to road rage. The more I thought about it, the less warm fuzzy I felt and the more worried I became.Are you about to litter? I wondered. What, am I not supposed to get mad if you throw your trash out the window, only to have it bounce off my windshield? Or if you keep encountering dick after dick, shouldn't you do a little self-examination? Maybe it's YOU, not them. With a sticker like that, a cop is bound to notice. So what, are you anti-police or something? Anti-government? Are you one of those crazies who lives on a compound somewhere? Don't get in my lane. And really, by telling me not to "be" a dick, aren't you kind of saying I could be already, that you see that quality in me, even though all I'm doing is driving behind you, innocently, listening to my Owl City album on my iPod? That's pretty rude, man. Jeez. Why don't you take your own advice already and leave me the hell alone?

I reject the entire premise and everything that this person has to say on a matter that she cannot make any objective assessments of. Is that not civil?

Premier Wynne knows she is going to lose the next election. So I expect her to start working on the poison pill. She is going to run the deficit to the maximum, spreading money among her friends. With about 1 year left in her mandate, she will award 5 year contracts with annual 5% increases to civil servants, teachers, and healthcare workers. This is more or less what the NDP did in Manitoba when they knew they would lose. It basically rewards her friends and hamstrings the next government.

" Dear Sir, I do not know what ""moderators"" you are talking about, but I would likely be one of them, and the last time I heard, the administrative corps - and particularly myself - had an extremely low tolerance for nationalist revert-warriors. Maps are maps. The last time I heard, they are geographic tools, not political ones, and it makes zero sense for the article itself to state ""Armenia is part of Southeast Asia"", and then for the map to show it as part of Europe. If you actually come up with some reliable sources that place Armenia inside Europe, I will be thrilled. Until then, kindly stop revert-warring and trying to bully Dbachmann like you managed to bully others above; the alternative is to get page-banned under WP:ARBAA2. Thank you. "

American Anglican Church The American Anglican Church is a Continuing Anglican jurisdiction which was founded early in the history of the Continuing Anglican movement, following controversies in the Episcopal Church over the ordination of women to the priesthood and the adoption of a new Book of Common Prayer. The presiding bishop of the American Anglican Church is John A. Herzog. He attended the Institute of Theology at the (Episcopal) Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City and General Seminary. He was ordained to the Diaconate by Bishop Anthony Clavier of the Continuing Anglican movement on December 5, 1982 and to the Priesthood on June 5, 1983. Herzog founded the Anglican Mission of the Holy Innocents in June 1983 and the Order of Saint Andrew in 1986. Holy Innocents church in New York serves as the AAC headquarters. He was consecrated a Bishop in the American Anglican Church in June 1994. The American Anglican Church conforms to all the standards of the Continuing Church movement and counts at present thirteen parishes and missions in North America, many of which serve Anglicans of Kenyan ancestry.

When 24-year-old Morris Beckman returned to his house on Amhurst Road in Hackney, he’d experienced quite a lot. His time fighting fascism abroad had seen him survive two Nazi torpedo attacks on a British Navy ship in the Atlantic. While his relieved mother showered him with affection on his return home, his father’s message was rather starker: ‘The bastards are back,’ he warned. Indeed, the London that Beckman returned to fell far short of the expectations of himself and millions of other ex-servicemen. Though it may run counter to the popular narrative of the triumph over Hitler, fascism grew rapidly in Britain immediately following the Second World War. Fascist prisoners interned during the war began to reorganise their crippled movement, while a new presence of captured Nazi soldiers being released from prisoner-of-war camps and into British society prompted a far-right renaissance. Within months of the war’s end, fourteen fascist groups and at least three bookshops operated openly across the city. Newspapers with names like Britain Awake and The Patriot were readily available on street corners. Most alarmingly of all, fascists began staging outdoor rallies in the densely-Jewish East End once again. ‘Openly in the streets you had public meetings shouting out the same antagonism and the same filth as before the war,’ commando veteran Jules Konopinski recalled, ‘and now even worse – they were saying the gas chambers weren’t enough.’ Alarm spread among the Jewish community that anti-Semitism could find a foothold so soon after the defeat of the Nazis. Emergence Nowhere was alarm at the situation felt more strongly than in Maccabi House, a Jewish sports club in Hampstead. Morris Beckman recalled that the club had a ‘subdued ambience’ that reflected the ‘weariness and uncertainties’ of the times. Polish-Jewish veterans of the Allied forces with no families or homes to return to were forging friendships in a new city. Several pre-war Maccabi regulars died fighting Hitler. The ones that had survived, once awash with optimism, were now world-weary veterans who mixed uncomfortably with jovial teenagers who hadn’t served. In those days the true enormity of the Holocaust wasn’t known, and as the full picture began to emerge it had a profound effect on the community. Jewish ex-servicemen in particular carried a ‘sick sense of shame’, Beckman said, that no Allied action had been taken to prevent Nazi operations in the death camps. This consciousness was emerging at the same time as walls in London — whose Jewish community had only escaped the fate of their European neighbours by geographical quirk — were once again being daubed with swastikas. To many, it felt as if Britain hadn’t learnt a thing. The Truth, a magazine whose editor, Colin Brooks, was a close confidante of Daily Mail owner Lord Rothermere, called for Jews to give up their houses to ‘British’ ex-servicemen. In October 1945, thousands signed an ‘anti-alien’ petition in Hampstead which called to expel the area’s large Jewish refugee population. In February 1946, while driving for a pint in Hampstead Heath, four young Jewish ex-servicemen — the former Hurricane ace Alec Carson, Gerry Flamberg, Len Sherman, and Morris Beckman — witnessed a rally by the British League of Ex-Servicemen and Women, the organisation of Jeffrey Hamm. A familiar face of pre-war fascism, Hamm was interned for his loyalty to Hitler and was now seeking to rebuild Oswald Mosley’s movement. Addressing a sixty-strong meeting, Hamm chose his words carefully, denouncing the ‘aliens in our midst’ who ‘waxed fat in the black market’ while British soldiers died. Pretending to buy a copy of Britain Awake, Sherman abruptly knocked two fascists unconscious by banging their heads together. Flamberg toppled the makeshift stage and knocked Hamm over. As the crowd scattered, an elderly German Jew stayed to shake their hands. It occurred to all four that they could face serious charges for their actions. ‘Well then,’ Carson said, ‘it’s about time they change the laws.’ Their action was widely supported, and an organising meeting at Maccabi House was arranged to push back the fascist threat. Thirty-eight ex-servicemen and five women turned up. The vast majority were Jewish, but the group also included non-Jewish socialists like Joe Zilliacus, a former Marine and son of left-wing Labour MP Konni Zilliacus. What united them was their conviction that the Jewish community must not be passive in the face of provocations. Alec Black, a veteran of the D-Day landings, proposed establishing an organisation that could effectively fight fascism and anti-Semitism. He knew this would be a serious endeavour and emphasised that everyone involved would risk serious harm and jail time. Anyone feeling nervous about this activity could leave without any judgement or prejudice against them. No one moved an inch or said a word. The organisation had two aims: to prevent fascist activities by physical force if necessary, and to pressure Parliament into making racial incitement a criminal offence. Since those present had few motivations beyond completing the tasks at hand, no grandiose names were suggested. It was decided they would be called ‘The 43 Group’, after the number of people in the room. But, by April of that year, the name seemed misplaced; over 300 people had bolstered the Group’s ranks. Confrontation After encountering their first post-war instances of physical resistance, London’s fascists dropped their respectable veneer. Rather than hiding behind dog-whistle phrases, the seasoned repertoire of Hitler salutes, ‘Heil Mosley’ chants, and renditions of the Horst Wessel Lied, the Nazi anthem, returned. In the face of constant physical attacks in their communities and workplaces, fascist anger grew increasingly frenzied. A bomb was pushed through the door of Gerry Flamberg’s home, while two 43 Group commandos beat unconscious a young fascist who had stitched razorblades into a flat cap and charged through Stamford Hill slashing people’s faces. In November 1946, 43 Group militants published a letter in the Jewish Chronicle appealing for further assistance. It inspired a swell in members, but provoked an angry response from Louis Hydelman, who sat on the Board of Deputies of British Jews. Accusing the young commandos of acting ‘counterproductively’, Hydelman ordered the Group to disband. His intervention only highlighted the divide between young Jews committed to tackling the fascist presence and the older communal leadership, who remained legalistic in outlook. Hydelman’s letter, derided for its patronising tone, fell on deaf ears. The Group’s impressive infrastructure, convinced members they could afford to ignore their critics. Not only could they boast of an active base of 1,000 members, but they had also made influential friends. Left-wing Labour MPs such as D. N. Pritt, John Platt-Mills, and Woodrow Wyatt were keen supporters, while entertainment giants Jack Solomon and Bud Flanagan regularly donated significant sums to the organisation. On the streets, confrontations intensified. Tightly-organised 43 Group units would form human ‘wedges’ at rallies, pushing through fascist security to attack the stage, and use ‘supporting parties’ to heckle and break up fascist proceedings. On Sunday, 1 June 1947, these skirmishes came to a head in Ridley Road, a market area of Hackney known for its vibrant Jewish life. The fascists’ decision to demonstrate here was particularly provocative as it had been a favoured site of Mosley’s British Union of Fascists in the 1930s. The 43 Group organised for the ‘Battle for Ridley Road’ with military precision. Commandos were given maps of the surrounding streets with entry and exit points for ambush attacks. But walking up to the platform they were still taken back by the size of the far-right crowd. With police backing too, the fascists hugely outnumbered the 43 Group. But they nonetheless infiltrated the audience in front of the stage and, when fascist leader Alexander Raven Thomson began to speak, started heckling. ‘Going back to the Isle of Man for your holidays?’ one commando shouted. (Thomson had been imprisoned in a detention camp on the Isle of Man during the war.) ‘They should have hanged you with William Joyce!’ said another. Then the wedge struck and ferocious fighting broke out. A description of scenes by Morris Beckman recalls the intensity. A young fascist about eighteen years of age appeared in front of me and called me a ‘Fucking Jew bastard’, catching my left thigh with a nearly well-aimed kick. I hit his nose square on and it spurted blood … I kicked his backside as hard as I could and he staggered off. A hard blow landed smack on my right ear and completely unbalanced me. For a moment, I was dazed, disorientated. My assailant was about to close and finish me off when Sam grabbed him around the neck and pulled him to the ground. Then Sam jumped on him. The genial, good-humoured Sam said, ‘I’m just breaking the bastard’s ribs so he won’t attend any more meetings.’

Well, Mr Wanjala. You bring up an interesting point that none of the reporters in the media have bothered to point out, let alone investigate. A google search of these five cases does seem to confirm that all five taxi drivers were indeed Muslim, and immigrants. Your conclusion is that all five are victims of an "Islamophobia epidemic." The owner of the taxi business, whose reputation has been seriously damaged by these incidents, thinks otherwise. Fortunately he does not have to prove, like the judge, that rape occurred "without a shadow of doubt". Mr Al-Rawi is fired and "will not be driving a taxi in Halifax anytime soon." All the owner needs is a complaint and a reasonable likelihood that it occurred. When this happens, or taxi drivers lock the doors and sexually assault a woman in the front seat, which was described in a previous case, the employer is well within his rights to fire the employee. Islamophobia?- no. Disgust for five hateful misogynists? - you bet.

There were no priests...how do you not get this? I get so tired of folks who think that The Church arrived full-blown on the morning of the Resurrection or maybe at Pentecost... many things have evolved (oh, I know that is a dirty word because THE CHURCH HAS NEVER CHANGED - ) and grown and been left open to The Spirit and will continue to change and grow and evolve in all Her Trinitarian splendor...if you don't feel comfortable with growth and change and, yes, evolving, then I guess you are not part of a church that is ALIVE...so you just crawl back in your cocoon and hug your dead church to yourself...we are ALIVE!!! Pope Francis knows this...some other hierarchical types just don't get it.

Oh, I realize what I listed isn't an Impeachable offense. And I know a lot of people would say I am full of it (and maybe I am), but I have zero respect for this guy. The latest being his need for many in his Cabinet (Mattis having enough character and dignity not to join in) to gush over how "blessed" they are to serve under his "leadership". And then Trump saying his administration has accomplished more in his time in office than any previous administrations, except for maybe FDR. A laughable claim and such an infantile thing to say. Whatever character flaws Nixon may have had, he was intelligent and competent. Trump is neither but comes with an abundance of significant character flaws.

In the sixties, my dad was in the Air Force, ranked above a private, and after he finished his day job for the military, he worked at a bar. He also received free healthcare and a housing allowance in addition to his military pay. My mother reminisces that our monthly splurge then was a visit to the Weinerschnitzel or Dairy Queen where we could all have a $0.05 ice cream cone each. Such was our lifestyle then.

[Prospective randomized trial of intravenous ciprofloxacin for prevention of bacterial infection in cirrhotic patients with esophageal variceal bleeding]. In cirrhotic patients with esophageal variceal bleeding, bacterial infections are a frequent complication. Oral antibiotic prophylaxis decreases the incidence of bacterial infections. The administration of oral antibiotics, however, may be difficult in some cirrhotic patients with active bleeding. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of prophylactic intravenous antibiotics for the prevention of bacterial infections in cirrhotic patients with esophageal variceal bleeding. From December 1998 to September 2001, a total of 40 consecutive cirrhotic patients with Child-Pugh class B or C were enrolled after emergent endoscopic esophageal variceal ligation (EVL) was taken because of esophageal variceal bleeding. Enrolled patients were randomized into a treatment group and a control group. The treatment group (n=20) received the intravenous ciprofloxacin 200mg IV q 12 hours for 3 days while the control group(n=20) didn,t. Bacterial infection developed in nine patients (45%) of the control group and only two patients (10%) in the treatment group. The incidence of bacterial infections was significantly lower in the treatment group than the control group (p < 0.005). The hospital cost and length of hospital stay decreased in the treatment group compared with the control group (p < 0.001). There were no differences in the hospital course and mortality within 30 days between the two groups. In cirrhotic patients with variceal bleeding and with Child-Pugh class B or C, the use of intravenous ciprofloxacin for 3 days after EVL was not only effective in the prevention of bacterial infections but also cost-effective.

Hi, you have made very sensible edits in the past and wonder if you would mind looking at the Abortion page. I have gotten into an edit war with JTDIRL and would appreciate your take on it. The war is primarily about style I have tried to make the article less wordy and better organized. But I think there is an underlying NPOV issue not concerning the matter of abortion (pro vs. con) but concerning the role of wikipedia (to educate people about ongoing public debates over certain issues, or to provide logical arguments meant to provoke people's thoughts). Right now there is an extensive account in the Talk page; if you look at the article make sure to find out whose reversion it is. Well, I hope you are having a good holiday, if you celebrate it.

sanct. re your "(think the dread engine light)": I have not seen that "check engine" light in 32 years -- on successive Chev and Pontiac cars. 32 years ago I bought my first Toyota and have stayed with that brand ever since -- if you include recent Lexus buys. I hold nothing against electric hybrid cars -- Toyota makes the Prius and offers similar hybrid technology in several other Toyota/Lexus models. But, there's no doubt that their hybrid cars perform much better in the city vs. predominately highway miles.

It has always been a given that if elected, and if the House or Senate (or both) remain Republican-controlled, that Clinton would face nonstop blistering committee witch-hunts and likely, a special prosecutor. Why? because that is what both Clintons have faced for most of the last thirty years. In fact, I would be surprised if a Republican House doesn't immediately set out to impeach Clinton, should she win. We have seen over the Obama years, the unyielding bloody-mindedness of the Stonewall Congress, abdicating national responsibility in favor of partisan all-out war. Why would we not see this continuing, and worsening? Republicans are safe at home, after decades of separating their flock from allegiance to the nation. My objection to this essay is that Krauthammer clearly blames HRC for this mess, which in fact is concocted through tens of thousands of hours of cynical hard work by propagandists within the RNC and its free-lance enablers, like Krauthammer.

One of greatest successes at the University of Oregon was the development of the zebrafish model organism. It is now considered one of the best systems for studying many aspects of development and disease, and Oregon gets a large amount of cachet for being the source of it. Interestingly, George Streisinger took many years to make the system work, and was considered by any outside metrics to be unproductive during that time. He would have been first on the chopping block if his employment was in the hands of a bean-counting Dean and he did not have tenure to protect him. Now, how to discern the unproductive from the temporarily unproductive future game-changers and protect only the latter? That I don't know. Maybe protecting game-changers is too much to ask of a university in dire financial straits and too much to ask of students in debt. But I think many people think of tenure as a way to protect just the political faculty; it affects the sciences as well.
