The Ferrari 365 GT4 2+2, Ferrari 400 and Ferrari 412 (Tipo F101) are front-engined V12 2+2 grand tourers made between 1972 and 1989. The three cars are closely related, using the same body, chassis and engine evolved over time.
Following Ferrari practice, their numeric designations refer to their engines' single-cylinder displacement expressed in cubic centimeters. The 365 GT4 2+2 was introduced in 1972 to replace the 365 GTC/4. It then evolved into the 400, the first Ferrari available with an automatic transmission. In 1979 the 400 was replaced by the fuel injected 400 i. The improved 412 ran from 1985 to 1989, bringing to an end Ferrari's longest-ever production series.
Although the option of an automatic transmission and compliance with U.S. emissions indicate it may have been designed for the American market, no version of these grand tourers was ever officially imported there. Many, however, entered as grey imports.

The NFL season may be over, but the recognition for this past season's star players isn't. The recent NFL Honors awards ceremony took place to recognize the league's best players. That included awards for NFL Most Valuable Player Patrick Mahomes of the Chiefs and Coach of the Year Matt Nagy of the Chicago Bears. As of Thursday, Madden 19 NFL Honors content arrived for Ultimate Team gamers to honor the league's top rookies.
Each season, there are NFL Rookie of the Year awards handed out for one player on offense and one on defense. There wasn't much of a competition when it came to this year's selections, as two rookies, in particular, were quite dominant. On offense, nobody achieved more than Saquon Barkley did in his first season as a running back for the New York Giants.
He tallied 1,307 yards and 11 touchdowns on 261 carries on the ground. He also caught 91 passes for 721 yards and four touchdowns. While the Giants didn't reach the postseason, there was a chance towards the end of the season. After his rookie campaign, things certainly look bright for the team's future too. On Thursday, Madden Ultimate Team gamers can look for a limited time Barkley card with a stellar rating of 98 overall.
On the other side of the ball, the Indianapolis Colts have a stud when it comes to their future defense. Their 6-foot-2 linebacker Darius Leonard helped with by achieving 111 solo tackles and seven sacks as well as four forced fumbles this past season.
That performance, by the man nicknamed "Maniac," was part of a defense that ranked No. 11 in terms of total yards allowed for the 2018-19 campaign. They were also among the top 10 rushing yards per game defenses this past season and made it into the NFL Playoffs.
The future looks bright for Indy, and the Madden 19 NFL Honors card for Darius Leonard shines bright with a 98. It includes skill ratings of 97 Agility, 97 Carrying, and 95 Speed, among others in the 90s. This card, along with Barkleys, is available for a limited time through the MUT packs.
Of course, Barkley and Leonard are just two of the new NFL Honors cards that are available in Madden 19. On Wednesday, they announced an Andrew Luck card, Kyle Long, and a tribute card for former Carolina Panthers defensive standout Julius Peppers.
As seen in EA Madden Ultimate Team's tweet above, these cards carry 97 or 98 ratings, making for more great ways to upgrade MUT rosters. All of these cards are for a limited time, so fire up that game system and get these players on the field with your squad ASAP!

Mardi Gras Casino and Resort was opened in 1985, as Tri-State Greyhound Park and focused mainly on greyhound racing. In 1990, the facility was purchased by Hartman & Tyner a Florida-based gaming organization. In 2002, the property received a 57,000 square-foot addition and gaming facilities and was renamed Tri-State Racing & Gaming Center. The property flourished as the premiere gaming location in the Charleston area. In 2007, Kanawha County passed table gaming and Hartman & Tyner quickly added the new amenity to the property operations. One year later, in 2008, after the addition of table gaming the property was renamed Mardi Gras. Along, with the addition to Table Games the property began expansion and a 150-room luxury hotel accommodations were added to the property in 2010 and the name was updated to Mardi Gras Casino & Resort.
In 2018, the property was purchased from Hartman & Tyner by Delaware North, a New York based hospitality management organization.

Since I spend most of my day in the #KaramaStudio I tend to miss out on the little joys of life. I am trying to be more flexible with my schedule. Most people think that running your own business means you have the freedom to do whatever you wish. It is true but in order to be a successful business you need to make serious time for your business. I am on a strict schedule. I struggle with time management so it is crucial to do things at a certain time.
But because I created a strict schedule I noticed I was missing out the chances to just relax during the day. Normally I start work at 10am and stop working at 4pm. I also make sure I don't do any work during the weekends. And sadly that still isn't enough time to do what I want.
Recently I decided to outsource work that I don't physically need to do. I know as a business owner you want to save money and try to do everything on your own. But the reality is you actually lose money and most importantly you lose time. Money comes and goes but time is priceless.

Opportunity Trumps Politics for Girl Performers at Inauguration

SAN JOSE, Calif. (WOMENSENEWS)–When Colleen Graham, a senior at Palmetto Ridge High School in Naples, Florida, discovered that her band director had cancelled the band's previous upcoming performance, she was told there were "bigger opportunities" ahead.
"We knew it would be big, but we weren't expecting something this big," she said.
Graham is just one of the many teenage girls who will be among the 8,000 performers at the Presidential Inaugural Parade as the United States marks the transition into the term of its 45th president, Donald Trump. For an opportunity like this, Graham, and many other girls who have been invited to perform, are willing to put personal politics aside.
This year's proceedings garnered significant controversies surrounding the performances. Many of the women invited, including those from the Rockettes and the Mormon Tabernacle Choir, have declined based on ideological differences with the new president.
This conflict against performing comes not only from participants, but also from alumni and community members who believe the bands' performances condone disrespect and violence towards women and others who have been affected by the president-elect's statements. Across the country, there has been push back through petitions and social media advocacy.
But for the teen girls interviewed for this story, participation in the inaugural proceedings means recognition on a national stage, and many have separated themselves from the politics of the soon-to-be president. Supporters of Trump or not, these girls felt honored to represent their schools and states at a monumental event.
Graham took to Twitter to express her thoughts on the upcoming performance after her band faced backlash for performing. She said in a Twitter message in early January that the Marching Pride is "extremely humbled to have been selected for this inauguration." Within the band are "many people of color, LGBTQ+ teens and just about every other type of minority," she wrote. "Perhaps my favorite thing about this band is simply how diverse it is."
At Palmetto Ridge High School, which is located in Miami-Dade County, an area that voted for Hillary Clinton in a two-thirds majority, Graham wrote, all of the students volunteered to perform. She said it was an apolitical group, however.
"We will never be a program that represents, supports or embodies hate," she said. "Our program represents for nothing but excellence in both musicianship and character."
Ideological Disagreement
This doesn't mean that all performers agree with the new president though.
"There are definitely members from the community and from the band who don't agree with Trump's ideology, but as far as supporting the nation and what we're going to do, there's been a pretty good consensus," said West Monroe's Rebel Band member Sami Beekman, age 17.
In the Ouachita Parish in Louisiana, where the school is located, Trump won 61 percent of the popular vote. However, within the West Monroe community, it appears the separation of politics and performance is well-defined.
For Beekman and many of the other girls who will be performing, the parade is an opportunity to be civically engaged despite being unable to vote.
"We'll be part of our nation and how we work," she said.
The students "are very excited to represent our school, our region and our state in an historic event on a national stage," said the Rebel Band's director, Robert Freeman. Freeman said in an email interview that both his female and male students "recognize that they are marching and performing in honor and celebration of the office and the process, not the individual occupying it."
Freeman's daughter Paige, 16, who marches with the clarinet in the Rebel Band, agreed that the performance is "upholding the nation and not the man."
Taylor Mount, 17, a junior at Columbus North High School, whose Sound of North Band will perform today, also expressed excitement about the parade. "This performance is different than any other because it's on the world stage," she said. She added that the band is "not making any kind of political statement or supporting either political party by going to the parade."
Alumni Push Back
Some bands are getting push back from alumni though. When Jennifer Hoffman heard Marist College in New York was invited to attend, the former marching band member and 2003 graduate started a petition for Marist College to decline the invitation. She collected over 3,000 signatures.
"To young women who have an invitation to perform in the inauguration, I [encourage] them to educate themselves on why other women have spoken out against participating," Hoffman told Teen Voices.
Marist College is still set to perform, and its president, Billy Hawkins, released a statement earlier this month about the performance: "As many of those who chose to participate in the parade have said, we feel the inauguration of a new president is not a political event but a civil ceremony celebrating the transfer of power."
An alumni of Talladega College in Alabama, whose marching band will be performing, Nikky Finney voiced concern to Teen Voices over the applications of teen girls performing in the parade. The college's band will be marching in the parade, although a petition discouraging the performance has acquired thousands of signatures from concerned students and alumni.
"In my opinion the president-elect of the United States of America should be held to the horrible and disrespectful things that he said…and therefore should not be supported by the presence of talented young people," she said.
Finney understands how young women may be excited by the honor of performing at such an event but still disagrees with it. "I know that being invited to a Presidential Inauguration sounds very exciting and perhaps is exciting, but I simply and truly believe there are more important and long-term life lessons at stake when we ignore hubris and hate."

Straight talk: The challenge for true diversity and acceptance
February 2, 2012 1:31 pm by admin Views: 96
On Jan. 25, schools across the nation celebrated the first ever Gay-Straight-Alliance Day. Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender (LGBT) and straight students honored the work of more than 4000 Gay-Straight Alliance (GSA) clubs, which "work to educate their peers to stop homophobia and transphobia in schools and colleges," according to an official press release.
The same week, Siloam Springs High School made headlines with its own emerging GSA. Instead of celebration, the local story highlighted the school's decision to keep the GSA as a "noncurriculum-related" club and have the students meet only after school.
There seemed to be a small discrepancy on how the GSA was treated. The club could not use the words "High School" in their name like other noncurriculum-realated clubs.
We see how the conservatism of the town might have contributed to the taboo status of this club. Even Assistant Superintendent Kent Raymick admits in an interview with 4029 News that, "It's a conservative community and of course here in the school district we're supported by their taxpayer dollars and we try to reflect that."
The high school is an uncomfortable position as they try to comply with federal laws, embracing diversity and serving their conservative taxpayers.
Pepperdine University, a private Christian school in California, is dealing with a similar situation, as the school administration opted not to recognize a GSA as an official university club. In this case Pepperdine holds the right, as controversial as it is, to deny the club's approval. Still, faculty and students continue their meetings to find common ground, and almost 7,000 people have signed an online petition urging the school to change its position.
John Brown University's known philosophy on the LGBT issue makes it unlikely for a full-blown GSA chapter to open as a university-approved club. How might JBU deal with a similar situation?
We see such initiative to embrace another element of diversity on campus, but our university lacks specific policies on the issues. We have long written about the need for the issue of homosexuality to be addressed and not pretend it's non-existent on campus.
Consider this: an LGBT club is formed. It is a place where students can find acceptance, know that they can be loved, be free to talk and discuss their situation. Would that scenario destroy the university's reputation, its ever-growing ranking and its long-term future? Would it be the end of the world? We think not.
Times are changing, and we believe a petition like this could happen soon. The university must clarify and clearly articulate its positions to ensure they will not have to deal with ambiguous, uncomfortable situations like the one of the local high school.

Q: The series $\displaystyle\sum_{p=1}^{\infty}\mathrm{tr}(A^p)z^p$ Let $A\in\mathcal{M}_n(\mathbb{C})$. For $z\neq0$, how to express the sum of the series
$$f(z)=\sum_{p=1}^{\infty}\mathrm{tr}(A^p)z^p$$
with the characteristic polynomial $P$ of $A$. Thanks.

A: First step is to notice that trace is additive, so this can be written as $$\mathrm {tr}\,\left(\sum_{p=0}^\infty (zA)^p\right) = tr((I-zA)^{-1})$$
So let $p(x)=x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}\dots a_0$ is the characteristic polynomial for $I-zA$ then the characteristic polynomial for $(I-zA)^{-1}$ is $x^n + \frac{a_1}{a_0}x^{n-1} + \frac{a_2}{a_0}x^{n-2}\dots + \frac{1}{a_0}$. And the trace of a matrix is the negative of the $x^{n-1}$ coefficient, so if we know the characteristic polynomial for $I-zA$ then the answer we are seeking is $\frac{-a_1}{a_0}$.
But the characteristic polynomial is $$p(x)=\det \left(xI - (I-zA)\right) = (-z)^n \det\left(\frac{1-x}zI-A\right) = (-z)^nq\left(\frac{1-x}z\right)$$ where $q$ is the characteristic poylnomial of $A$.
So, if we are given $q$, we can compute $p(x)=(-z)^nq(\frac{1-x}z)$ and compute $a_1$ and $a_0$ to get our result.
But $a_0=p(0)$ and $a_1=p'(0)$, so we get the formula for the trace:
$$-\frac{a_1}{a_0} = \frac{q'(\frac{1}{z})}{zq(\frac{1}{z})}$$
I think I've got it right. In the case where $A=I$, at least, $q(x)=(x-1)^n$ and $q'(x)=n(x-1)^{n-1}$ and we get $\frac{n}{1-z}$, which is the desired result.
An alternative approach is to show that the the sequence $B_p=\mathrm{tr}(A^p)$ satisfies a linear recurrence.  If the minimum polynomial for $A$ is $x^n+a_{n-1}x^{n-1}+\dots+a_0$ then $$B_{p+n} = -\sum_{i=0}^{n-1} a_i B_{p+i}$$
There is a general approach to finding the generating function for a sequence defined by a linear recurrence.

> Verticillium Wilt of Canola Factsheet
Verticillium Wilt in Canola
Verticillium wilt in canola, caused by Verticillium longisporum, was detected in Manitoba in 2014 and this was the first case of this disease on an oilseed crop in North America. This disease is common in northern Europe and is the number one disease of oilseed crops in Sweden.
The complete host range of V. longisporum is still unknown, but many other brassica crops like broccoli, cabbage, mustard, and cauliflower are also hosts.
Verticillium longisporum overwinters in the soil as microsclerotia, small masses of fungal cells that are hard and compact. These structures are capable of surviving in the soil for 10 to 15 years, but the number of viable microsclerotia will decline over time.
Microsclerotia germinate after stimulation by root exudates from host plants. The fungus then infects the plants via the roots, most often at the seedling stage. As the plant grows, the fungus spreads upward through the xylem tissue.
Symptoms of Verticillium wilt in canola most often appear near the end of the season as the plants begin to ripen.
While the stem is still green, a vertical yellow or brown band extending up one side of the stem may be visible.
As the plant fully ripens, the outer layer of the stem epidermis peels back to reveal black microsclerotia just below the surface.
These microsclerotia appear as black pepper-like spots that are visible to the naked eye. If a cross-section of an infected stem is examined under a microscope, microsclerotia will also be visible in the inner pith tissue representing the colonization of the vascular tissue by the fungus.
The best time to scout for Verticillium wilt in canola is at swathing, but it is even possible to identify this disease after harvest as microsclerotia will continue to develop on the stubble. Infected plants will become more obvious after harvest as they will turn grey-black as they senesce.
There are no foliar or seed treatment fungicides currently registered for control of Verticillium wilt in canola. In addition, there is no host resistance in canola varieties at this time for V. longisporum.
In northern Europe, where this disease has been an important issue for more than 30 years, it is recommended that growers leave three years between canola crops. This allows the pathogen populations to naturally decline in the soil, but, due to the long-lived microsclerotia, rotation alone is not enough to manage this problem effectively.
As V. longisporum is a soil-borne pathogen, biosecurity practices can help mitigate the spread of this disease on- and off-farm. Biosecurity practices include equipment and tool sanitation, controlling off-farm traffic, monitoring seed/feed/fertilizer sources, and developing an on-farm biosecurity plan.

In the standard case of an adult resident beneficiary of a trust, the beneficiary is taxed on trust income and the trust is broadly treated as a transparent entity and isn't taxed.
Even where a beneficiary is:
not an adult; or
not a tax resident;
the trustee of the trust pays tax though ostensibly on behalf of the beneficiary entitled to trust income at the rate applicable to the beneficiary and the beneficiary is entitled to a credit for tax paid on that income should the beneficiary file his, her or its own tax return.
Tax capture when no beneficiary entitled to the income
Look-through taxation of income doesn't work when there is no beneficiary presently entitled to income of the trust to look through to. Under the Australian system, in these cases, the trustee of a trust pays tax at the highest marginal rate on income plus applicable levies including medicare levy. That is where no beneficiary is presently entitled to the income of a trust under section 99A of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936.
The trustee beneficiary complication
Trusts can be beneficiaries of other trusts. These beneficiaries are "trustee beneficiaries" of a trust.
The trustee of trust B is a beneficiary and so is a trustee beneficiary of trust A.
C, a beneficiary of trust B, takes (is presently entitled to) a share of the income of trust A.
C may be an individual or a company, viz. an ultimate beneficiary, or may be a further trust – a further trustee beneficiary.
It is then necessary to trace trust income of trust A through trustee beneficiaries to find if there is an ultimate individual or company beneficiary entitled to that income. There may be no ultimate beneficiary entitled to income and the case of a "circular" trust distribution is a case in point.
The circular trust distribution by trusts
A definitive example of a circular trust distribution of income is where:
trust X distributes income of trust X to trust Y; and
trust Y distributes its income (back) to trust X.
There is thus no ultimate individual or company beneficiary. The income is in a state of flux. Nonetheless it is clear no beneficiary is presently entitled to the income and the highest marginal rate and applicable levies imposed under section 99A should be applicable to a circular trust distribution of income under the regime so far described.
That is a fair point in principle but a circular trust distribution, or any distribution to a trustee beneficiary that isn't on-distributed to an ultimate beneficiary, is not necessarily readily traceable and identifiable as income to which no beneficiary is entitled. That is especially so where a labyrinthine structure of numerous trusts is used to conceal who is entitled to trust income and that there is no ultimate beneficiary who is not a trustee beneficiary entitled to trust income.
The legislative countermeasures
Countermeasures in the below legislation apply to support the integrity of flow through taxation of trusts. These countermeasures were introduced in Division 6D of Part III of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 which has lead to these new taxes:
firstly, the ultimate beneficiary non-disclosure tax when introduced with the A New Tax System (Closely Held Trusts) Act 1999 (see below); and
currently the trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax as introduced to reform the ultimate beneficiary non-disclosure tax under the Taxation (Trustee Beneficiary Non-disclosure Tax) Act (No. 1) 2007 and the Taxation (Trustee Beneficiary Non-disclosure Tax) Act (No. 2) 2007.
These taxes were or are in substance proxies for tax on the trustee under section 99A for presumed lack of present entitlement of an ultimate beneficiary to ensure that income of a trust does not escape income tax either:
for want of an ultimate beneficiary entitled to the income; or
because of the opaque lack of an ultimate beneficiary where a trustee beneficiary may seem to be an ultimate beneficiary in the tax return of the trust.
Like the rate that applies under section 99A the rate of trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax is the highest marginal rate plus applicable levies including the medicare levy.
The countermeasures also include a concept of "trustee" group which expands liability for trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax to corporate directors of trustees of closely held trusts personally: an impost beyond the section 99A impost for falling under the purview of these anti-avoidance provisions.
A New Tax System (Closely Held Trusts) Act 1999
The first legislation to grapple with the tracing problem was in the A New Tax System (Closely Held Trusts) Act 1999 which introduced a wide and indiscriminate ultimate beneficiary statement reporting obligation on all closely held trusts.
Closely held trusts
A trust is a closely held trust if it:
is a discretionary trust, or
has up to 20 individuals who, between them, directly or indirectly, and for their own benefit, have fixed entitlements to a 75% or more share of the income or a 75% or more share of the capital of the trust;
where the trust is not an excluded trust. Examples of excluded trusts are complying superannuation funds and, for their first five years, deceased estates.
Reset of the closely held trust compliance burden
In response to sustained complaints from many trustees of trusts which did not distribute to trustee beneficiaries and their advisers, the federal government came to amend the regime in 2007 so that only trustees of closely held trusts which distribute income to:
trustee beneficiaries;
where the distribution includes an "untaxed part";
have reporting obligations to file a trustee beneficiary (TB) statement. TB statements need to be filed with a tax return and, in the case of resident trustee beneficiaries, need to disclose the following about the trustee beneficiary:
tax file number,
the untaxed part of their share of trust income; and
their share of tax preferred amounts;
and to withhold trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax and to pay it to the Commissioner of Taxation where the relevant trustee beneficiary fails to provide the information for the TB statement when it is sought by the (distributor) closely held trust.
This more nuanced or targeted solution imposes a less onerous compliance burden on closely held trusts than the 1999 measures did.
Further, in accord with policy to treat "family trusts" viz. trusts that have
a valid family trust election; or
a valid interposed entity election;
in force or that otherwise forms part of a "family group" less onerously, family trusts were excluded trusts to which the closely held trusts regime did not apply following the 2007 reform.
2018-19 Budget changes to closely held trusts
Following an announcement in the 2018-19 Federal Budget, the closely held trust arrangements have been further tweaked by the Treasury Laws Amendment (2019 Tax Integrity and Other Measures No. 1) Act 2019. Under these changes it is still the case that family trusts still do not have to comply with the TB statement reporting requirements however family trusts are no longer excluded trusts.
That means that a family trust that is a closely held trust (which will often be the case) must now comply with the closely held trust obligations but a family trust remains relieved from the obligation to file TB statements and pay trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax on omission to file a TB statement. Despite that a family trust is now liable for trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax on circular trust distributions under section 102UM of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 but not on distributions received from other trusts (which are not circular and to which section 102UM does not apply).
How will compliance with the changes work?
It is perhaps unusual that the changed closely held trusts regime relieves a family trust, no longer an excluded trust and that distributes income to a trustee beneficiary, from filing a TB statement. The Commissioner of Taxation will have no TB statement to aid detection of a taxable circular distribution back to the family trust. Further, in the case of family trusts, the Commissioner won't obtain TB statement level information about distributions by family trusts to trustee beneficiaries that are not circular or the opportunity to impose the trustee beneficiary non-disclosure tax on those distributions as a matter of course on the omission to file a TB statement.
Nevertheless the Commissioner of Taxation will have trustee beneficiary contact details and perhaps a tax file number, or will be alerted by the absence of a tax file number; from the tax return of a closely held trust family trust. The Commissioner can trace a distribution and ascertain when a circular trust distribution by a family trust occurs by investigative activity. Further, risk of family trust distributions tax liability under Schedule 2F of the Income Tax Assessment Act 1936 makes it less likely that a family trust will make a distribution liable to that tax, particularly a distribution of a tax preferred amount, to a trustee beneficiary that is:
outside of the family group; and
where that trustee beneficiary's tax file number is not known by the trustee of the trust and reported in the trust tax return.
Changing the trustee of a trust – some elements for success
Structures, Superannuation, Trusts
It is sometimes wrongly assumed that a minute of the current trustee is sufficient to change the trustee of:
a family discretionary trust (FDT); or
a self managed superannuation fund (SMSF) (which must be a trust with a trustee too – see sub-section 19(2) of the Superannuation Industry (Superannuation) Act (C'th) 1993 (SIS Act));
and that a change of trustee will have no serious tax consequences. The second proposition is more likely to be true, but not always.
FDTs and SMSFs invariably commence with a deed which contains the terms (the trust terms or governing rules – TTOGRs) on which the trust commences. That, in itself, is a reason why I contended in 2009 in Redoing the deed that an instrument or resolution less than a deed to change the trustee is prone to be ineffective even where change by less than or other than a deed is stated to be permitted by the TTOGRs in the trust deed.
Changing trustee relying on ability to change in the trust deed
It is thus to the trust deed that one needs to look to find:
whether there is a power in the TTOGRs to appoint a new trustee or to otherwise change the trustee; and
if, so, what the procedure or formalities are for doing so.
Changing trustee relying on the Trustee Acts
If ability to change trustee is not present, or is derelict, in the TTOGRs then the Trustee Acts in states (and territories) provide options for appointing a new or additional trustee which vary state to state.
Trustee Act – New South Wales
In New South Wales: section 6 of the Trustee Act (NSW) 1925 allows a person nominated for the purpose of appointing trustees in the TTOGRs, a surviving trustee or a continuing trustee to appoint a new trustee in certain specified situations such as where a trustee:
has died;
is incapable of acting as trustee; or
is absent for a specified period out of the state.
However an appointment of a new trustee in these situations must be effected by registered deed: sub-section 6(1) That is the deed of appointment must be registered with the general registry kept by the NSW Registrar-General, which is publicly searchable, and the applicable fee to so register the deed must be paid to NSW Land Registry Services for the appointment to take effect.
It is apparent from sub-section 6(13) that registration of a deed of appointment is not required where ability to appoint a new trustee is in the TTOGRs where the TTOGRs express a contrary intention; that is: where the TTOGRs expressly and effectively allow an appointment to be effected without a registered deed.
Trustee Act – Victoria
In Victoria there is a comparable capability for a person nominated for the purpose of appointing trustees in the TTOGRs, a surviving trustee or a continuing trustee to appoint a new trustee in writing in certain specified situations such as where a trustee:
is absent for a specified period out of the state;
under section 41 of the Trustee Act (Vic.) 1958. However this Victorian law does not impose any requirement that the required instrument of appointment in writing must be registered.
Changing trustee by obtaining a court order
The supreme courts of the states and territories are also given a residual statutory capability to appoint trustees under the respective Trustee Acts. However applying to a supreme court for an order to change a trustee of a FDT or a SMSF with sufficient supporting grounds is an option of last resort given likely significant costs and uncertainties of obtaining the order.
Changing trustee by deed
The TTOGRs in a trust deed of a FDT or a SMSF will frequently require that an appointment of a new trustee may or must be effected by a deed. It is desirable that it should do so to ensure the appointment of a new trustee does not become of a matter of uncertainty and difficulty for the reasons I have described in Redoing the deed.
Tax consequences of a change of trustee
As a change of trustee without more generally does not change beneficial entitlements under a trust, the tax consequences are usually benign:
For capital gains tax (CGT), assurance that changing trustee does not give rise to a CGT event for all of the CGT assets held in a trust is diffuse under the Income Tax Assessment Act (C'th) (ITAA) 1997:
Sub-section 104-10(2) concerning CGT event A1 states:
(2) You dispose of a * CGT asset if a change of ownership occurs from you to another entity, whether because of some act or event or by operation of law. However, a change of ownership does not occur if you stop being the legal owner of the asset but continue to be its beneficial owner.
Note: A change in the trustee of a trust does not constitute a change in the entity that is the trustee of the trust (see subsection 960-100(2)). This means that CGT event A1 will not happen merely because of a change in the trustee.
Sub-section 960-100(2) with the Notes below it in fact say:
(2) The trustee of a trust, of a superannuation fund or of an approved deposit fund is taken to be an entity consisting of the person who is the trustee, or the persons who are the trustees, at any given time.
Note 1: This is because a right or obligation cannot be conferred or imposed on an entity that is not a legal person.
Note 2: The entity that is the trustee of a trust or fund does not change merely because of a change in the person who is the trustee of the trust or fund, or persons who are the trustees of the trust or fund.
Similarly sections 104-55 and 104-60 of the ITAA 1997 which concern:
• Creating a trust over a CGT asset: CGT event E1
• Transferring a CGT asset to a trust: CGT event E2
each restate the above Note: viz.
Note: A change in the trustee of a trust does not constitute a change in the entity that is the trustee of the trust (see subsection 960-100(2)). This means that CGT event E… will not happen merely because of a change in the trustee.
A change of trustee can have stamp duty consequences where the trust holds dutiable property such as real estate.
Duty – NSW
Concessional stamp duty on the transfer of the dutiable property of the trust to the new trustee can be denied in NSW to a FDT unless the trust deed of the trust limits who can be a beneficiary, for anti-avoidance reasons: see sub-section 54(3) of the Duties Act (NSW) 1997.
Indeed Revenue NSW withholds the requisite satisfaction in sub-section 54(3) unless the TTOGRs provide or have been varied in such a way so that an appointed new trustee or a continuing trustee irrevocably cannot participate as a beneficiary of the trust. Contentiously satisfaction is withheld by Revenue NSW unless a variation to a FDT to so limit the beneficiaries is "irrevocable" : see paragraph 6 of Revenue Ruling DUT 037, even though that variation may not be plausible or permissible under the TTOGRs of the FDT.
This hard line is taken by Revenue NSW to defeat schemes where someone, who might otherwise be a purchaser of dutiable property who would pay full duty on purchase of the property from the trust, becomes both a trustee and beneficiary able to control and beneficially own the property who is thus able to contrive liability only for concessional duty and avoid full duty,
Duty – Victoria
Although the Duties Act (Vic.) 2000 contains anti-avoidance provisions addressed at this kind of anti-avoidance arrangement, there is no comparable hard line to that in NSW in sub-section 33(3) of the Duties Act (Vic.) 2000 so that the transfer of dutiable property, including real estate, on changing trustee is more readily exempt from stamp duty.
A prominent requirement on changing trustee of a SMSF is notification to the Australian Taxation Office, as the regulator of SMSFs, within twenty-eight days of the change: see Changes to your SMSF at the ATO website.
Where changing trustee involves a corporate trustee then there may also be an obligation to inform the Australian Securities and Investments Commission of changes to details of directors of the corporate trustee, if any. There may be further matters to be addressed if any new or continuing directors are or will become non-residents of Australia and, with SMSFs, the general requirement in section 17A of the SIS Act that the parity between members of the fund on the one hand and trustees, or directors of the corporate trustee on the other, needs to borne in mind and, if need be, addressed.

This forum is intended to cover discussions about other Japanese television shows that are not dramas.
Generally, this includes variety shows, interviews, award programs, etc.
Where possible, I'd like to break up discussions into threads based on the name of the show (similar to the JDrama Discussion forum). Basically, I'd like to keep the number of threads directly related to a single show to a minimum (e.g. there are at least 3 threads as of this moment that is related to Lincoln ).
I haven't quite figured out how the rest will go yet, but I do know there will be other threads in here as well. We'll see what evolves from the types of posts generated here.
I will say this though: Make sure you search the tracker and the relevant resources listed in the Links of Interest before posting requests or asking where to find things.
This is forum is NOT to be used/abused to ask for uploads or seeds. We already have an Upload and Seeding Request Forum. Please use it.

As always, I welcome feedback, so please post if you have any suggestions on how you'd like this forum to work.

Thanks for the breakdown, hikkichan.
Did some much needed cleaning of this forum. Turns out that over 50% were just requests for uploads, so they were all axed. All in all, there are fewer discussion topics than I thought we would end up with. You can see from the new index that I had earmarked a few threads for shows that are/have been uploaded to the DA tracker, but there really weren't any threads existing to support them. If anybody wants to make a discussion thread (about any Japanese television program), please do.
Still need to figure out what to do with a couple threads that have some potentially useful info that I want to pool, but otherwise, this is the general scheme I had in mind.
Is "Sekai Ururun Taizaiki" the same as "Ururun" that is here on D-Addicts?
Did another cleaning of the forum. Deleted or moved requests to the proper forum.

Farmers Feed the World

The Chinese were once the world's greatest seafarers. A few people even think they reached the west coast of North America before Columbus sailed the ocean blue. But then the emperor banned foreign travel. They were never heard from again.
The Islamic people once led the world in math and science. Did you know that the word "algebra" comes from Arabic? But then their culture embraced fundamentalism. They were never heard from again.
Today in Europe, our own civilization threatens to turn back the clock on progress. While much of the rest of the planet adopts agricultural biotechnology–an absolutely essential tool if we're to achieve food security in the 21st century–the foolish antics of Green party activists would lead us toward a future of poverty and hunger.
Before that happens, you'll be hearing from me. This is one of the most important battles of our time. We cannot stay silent.
I farm on three continents. In my native Ireland, I work 1,100 एकड़ जमीन, growing wheat for pigs and poultry. In Argentina, I'm managing director of a 31,000-acre operation that harvests corn, सोयाबीन, और गेहूं. In the United States, in southwest Missouri, I'm an investor in a dairy farm.
So my experience as a farmer is global. I've observed best practices in very different environments. दुर्भाग्य से, I've also witnessed worst practices. A bullheaded refusal to take advantage of biotechnology is probably the very worst practice around.
In Ireland, the situation is so bad that we aren't even allowed to research genetic modification in crops. Forget about planting them for commercial benefit, the way farmers do all the time in North and South America, where GM crops are now a form of conventional agriculture. Here at home, it's illegal for researchers to conduct experiments.
Do you realize what this means? They've outlawed scientific inquiry!
Ireland tries to take pride in building what it calls a "knowledge-based economy." When it comes to biotech crops, तथापि, Ireland is in a headlong retreat from knowledge. Our government prefers ignorance.
Argentina is the exact opposite. Farmers in that country–including me, when I'm working there–are allowed to grow genetically modified crops. This gives us a big boost in yield and soil protection.
Ironically, Ireland has the better business reputation. Each year, the World Bank calculates the ease of doing business in the countries of the world, using quantitative measurements on start-ups, regulations, taxes, and so forth.
इस साल, Ireland ranks #7. Argentina is #118, which is a little better than Bangladesh and a little worse than Bosnia. (The United States, by the way, is #4.)
Yet I much prefer the business of farming in Argentina. It's a dream place for agriculture. I'm not just referring to the climate. I'm thinking about how hard farming has become in Ireland, or just about anywhere else in Europe. The Argentine government doesn't try to tell me what I can and cannot grow based upon deliberate ignorance. It lets me make my own decisions.
If I was a younger man, I'd be tempted to move permanently to Argentina. But Ireland is home. I'm not going anywhere. It nevertheless saddens me to see a vocal minority of Green party activists throttle the future of farming here.
There are about as many people in Ireland as there are in Oregon–a bit less than four million. The world adds roughly this number of people to its total population every three weeks or so. The demand for food never has been higher–and if current trends continue, it will continue to set new records every year for the rest of my life.
It will take Irish farmland–and existing farmland everywhere–to meet this need. Europe must do its part to produce more and use its influence, especially in Africa, to encourage biotechnology. The policy of refusing to take GM crops seriously sets us up for an awful tragedy.
Maybe there's some good news ahead: This week, the Royal Society, the United Kingdom's National Academy of Science, has released a report that calls for the acceptance of genetic modification on the farm.
Let's hope for a better future, so our present doesn't become a past we come to regret.

Few mint leaves for the drink as well as for garnishing.
Step 1: We will prepare Strawberry puree first.First of all rinse the strawberries nicely and remove the leaf portion and cut it into half.Now take a blender and put all the strawberries in it.Then add 1/4th cup of sugar and few mint leaves.Blend it nicely.Strawberry puree is ready.This puree will be having a little grainy texture and if you don't like it,sieve it and then use.Our Strawberry puree is ready.
Step 2: In a Jug add 4 cups of water,juice of 1 lemon,1/4th cup of sugar and the strawberry puree.Mix it nicely.Add the lemon wedges and refrigerate it for half an hour and then it is ready to be served.
Step 3: Take a glass and pour chilled Strawberry Lemonade in it and then garnish with mint leave and serve.
If you want to serve it immediately then use cold water.
You can add a little bit of salt if you like it.
If you don't have a blender (Not to worry) – Still can make this awesome drink.Take the chopped strawberries in a bowl and add 1/ 4cup of sugar and leave it to rest for half an hour.Sugar will extract all the juices out of the strawberries,then after half an hour crush the strawberries using back of the spoon.By this time strawberries are very soft.Now you will get a thick Sauce.Now strain it using a sieve. Your Strawberry Puree is ready to be used.

Have You Heard Ralph Stanley & Ralph Stanley II's Side By Side?
87 years is a long time to live. To be a vital recording artist at that age is highly unusual, but that is what we find today when we consider Ralph Stanley.
Recorded last year- so more accurately 86 year old as a recording artist- "Side By Side" is a duet album recorded by Stanley and his son, Ralph Stanley II, and released this past February on Rebel Records. I purchased the album while on a spring break trip to Missouri, and it immediately went into regular rotation in the Fervor Coulee F-150.
It is the first time the two have stood, well, side by side in the studio as equals rather than as 'boss' and Clinch Mountain Boy. The selection of songs- four of which feature Ralph in strong, lead voice- are almost exclusively older and well-known: the album kicks off with Wild Bill Jones, goes Walking With You In My Dreams, asks Are You Waiting Just For Me, and concludes with I've Still Got 99.
The musicianship is classic sounding- fresh and relaxed with a professional sheen that doesn't get in the way of the emotions of the music. Clinch Mountain Boys alumni John Rigsby (fiddle and mandolin), Randall Hibbitts (bass), and Steve Sparkman (banjo) are the core band, with Two doing double duty on lead and rhythm guitar. Dr. Ralph lays out clawhammer-style on a solitary track, the appealing Battle Ax.
Doubting the senior Stanley's vocal capabilities? Don't. Instead, give Don't Weep for Me, or appreciate his excellent tenor contributions to any number of these songs including Don't Step Over An Old Love, Nobody Answered Me,or Carolina Mountain Home.
Two has become a fine singer in his own right, one of my favorites. If you haven't heard him before, also consider his album of a couple years back "Born To Be A Drifter." White & Pink Flowers is a sentimental weeper, while Dirty Black Coal is more my style. Start to finish, "Side By Side" is a superior album of bluegrass.
Perusing these song titles, it is readily apparent what Two and co-producer Rigsby had in mind- a celebration of the Stanley mountain music legacy. And they have pulled such off in a significant way.
My question is, Has anyone noticed?
Googling around a bit this week, I found only a handful of full reviews of this album. I may have missed them, but I don't recall seeing these songs on recent airplay charts. The various bluegrass discussion boards have either ignored the album entirely, or acknowledged it only in passing. There was an initial spurt of one-sheet rewrites back in February, and at least one insightful interview with Two published, but it certainly hasn't been highlighted to any other significant degree on the major bluegrass websites. I know some in my acquaintance weren't even aware the album was even released-admittedly, their bad.
All of which is a shame. "Side By Side," from where I'm sitting in central Alberta, is cause for celebration. We all know Ralph Stanley had planned on retiring this year, but with his continuing good health delaying that decision one of the last true 'first generation' bluegrass singers continues to make appearances. And his latest album is as good as anything- and certainly superior to some- he has recorded in the past twenty years.
I wonder if we are losing sight of what really matters when it comes to bluegrass. Information about the musicians is available to us like never before- if we don't get a Tweet about someone's daughter's graduation, we're reading another birth announcement. We get updates weekly about fiddle players we've never heard of either leaving or joining bands we haven't encountered. We can find the latest song by the 'next big thing' in seconds, but how often do we actually listen?
We hear more, read more, know more than ever before. But, have we forgot to listen? To contemplate and understand?
These are mighty great days to be a fan of bluegrass music. In our haste to glean a little of everything, let's not ignore those who got us here.
I would suggest that "Side By Side" should be added to everyone's summer listening list.


NBC 5 Investigates has new information on explosives found in Micah Xavier Johnson's home and weapons discovered at the scene.
Law enforcement sources with knowledge of the investigation say authorities found what are called binary explosives at Johnson's home.
These materials are sold in pre-packaged kits and are used by shooting enthusiasts to create explosive targets for shooting practice.
In large quantities, they can cause a significant blast.
The explosives were discovered Friday in search of Johnson's home in Mesquite.
At a news conference Monday, Dallas Police Chief David Brown also described what he called a large stockpile of bomb making materials.
"He knew what he was doing. He wasn't a novice. We're trying to determine how he knew all of that," said Brown.
Investigators are still trying to determine if anyone else helped Johnson or if he learned bomb-making skills on his own online.
At the crime scene, a team of 70 FBI evidence technicians is wading through a sea of shell casings from guns fired by Johnson and police officers returning fire.
Monday, sources with knowledge of the investigation said in addition to a military-style rifle, Johnson carried a .25-caliber semi-automatic pistol and a 9 mm semi-automatic pistol.
The weapons were fired using what's known as a shoot-and move-technique designed to keep police off guard.
"Once he moves to another position those officers now have to reacquire him and readjust their aim and put active fire to eliminate the threat. Their decision making process was interrupted by his movement," said former FBI agent Gregory Shaffer.
In an interview with TheBlaze, father James Johnson says the family had no warning.
"I didn't see it coming. I love my son with all my heart. I hate what he did," James Johnson said.
Police vow to find out if anyone else might have known, or might have helped.
"We're going to turn over every rock and we're going to follow every lead until I'm satisfied," Brown said.
It's still not clear to police what Johnson planned to do with the bomb-making materials in his home.
So far police have not found any devices at the scene of Thursday's attack even though Johnson told police he had planted improvised explosive devices when he spoke to police negotiators.
