How To Embed Practically Anything On Your Blog or Website. If you want the hands-down, easiest way to embed practically anything on your blog or website, have we got a tool for you! The nature of the web is such that sharing and republishing content is common — and often even encouraged. The problem is, we increasingly store bits of our data on various services scattered across the web. Aggregating that content into one centralized personal hub can be time consuming — requiring user to manually copy text and links or upload files and photos — or fiddling with RSS feeds trying to make content automagically appear. Twitter released a very cool tool to allow publishers to embed tweets in their blog posts, but the process is overly complex for most users, with plugins needed to streamline the process.

No Tax Holiday for Multinational Corporations

These are the nefarious, but legal, games that hundreds of multinationals play to avoid paying their fair share of taxes. According to a report by Bloomberg, Google used these techniques to cut its tax rate to 2.4 percent and its taxes by $3.1 billion over the three years from 2007 through 2009. The company's top two markets by revenue are the US, with a 35 percent corporate income tax rate, and the UK, with a 28 percent rate, yet Google - using practices widely employed by global companies - dramatically reduced its tax rate. At the heart of this strategy is the transfer of rights to intellectual property developed in the US - often, as in Google's case, with early research funded by US taxpayers through the National Science Foundation - to a subsidiary in a low-tax country.

Foreign earnings based on the technology are then attributed to the subsidiary. Native American Opportunities.

Everyone is familiar with the ad clips that are a mainstay of video/news services such as Hulu or NBC, that are shown before the actual programming.

Skip introductory video ad clips with AdBlock Video Firefox plugin

Typically 20 or 30 seconds in duration, these are no major nuisance in small doses; except with more and more people increasingly consuming TV programming, news and video on the internet, these 20 or 30 seconds can add up into a large chunk of time (and bandwidth). Wouldn’t it be great if there were a browser plugin that removed introductory ads from videos? AdBlock Video is precisely such an extension. Available for Firefox (alas no Chrome version as of this writing), this free plugin will typically allow the first ad that the video service will display, but manage to circumvent every ad thereafter within the same browsing session.How it works: install the Firefox plugin, then browser video services as normal. The video below shows the plugin in action: The only thing I wish for?
