U.S. crackdown doesn't distinguish between Caribbean tax havens and Canada rluciw@globeandmail.com A tax crackdown by the United States has sent more than one million Americans and green-card holders living in Canada scrambling to figure out how to comply. The move is part of a push by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (IRS) to make sure U.S. taxpayers are paying what they owe on foreign accounts. That means that people like Kerry Knoll's two teenage daughters, who have never had a U.S. address or earned a penny there but have dual Canadian and American citizenship, will have to file U.S. tax returns on accounts they hold in Canada and may face penalties. "Suddenly we are being told that my daughter's savings account from her summer job is considered an illegal offshore account by the Americans, something that I find preposterous," Mr. "My daughters might owe thousands out of their registered education savings plans (RESP). Mr. 1: Determine your status.

Financial Sector Thinks It’s About Ready To Ruin World Again
NEW YORK—Claiming that enough time had surely passed since they last caused a global economic meltdown, top executives from the U.S. financial sector told reporters Monday that they are just about ready to completely destroy the world again. Representatives from all major banking and investment institutions cited recent increases in consumer spending, rebounding home prices, and a stabilizing unemployment rate as confirmation that the time had once again come to inflict another round of catastrophic financial losses on individuals and businesses worldwide. “It’s been about five or six years since we last crippled every major market on the planet, so it seems like the time is right for us to get back out there and start ruining the lives of billions of people again,” said Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein. “People are beginning to feel at ease spending money and investing in their futures again,” Blankfein continued.

Why Do Banks Get Away With Murder?
For five long and very strange years, death haunted tiny Dryden, NY, a town near the Finger Lakes where a plague of car accidents, suicides, and even grisly murders involving two popular cheerleaders just kept mounting up. At the end of Fargo, Frances McDormand’s police chief, Marge Gunderson, captures the psycho played by Peter Stormare. He’s in the backseat of her police cruiser and she talks to him as she drives. We see that she cannot fathom the evil she’s just seen. “And here ya are,” she says, “and it’s a beautiful day. I am not surprised by violence or horror but still sometimes find myself struck, not unlike Marge, in a kind of a daze, unable to wrap my head around it. Why do horrible things happen? In the meantime, dig into “The Cheerleaders.” The Cheerleaders by E. Welcome to Dryden. If you live in Dryden, the kids from Ithaca, that cradle of metropolitan sophistication 15 miles away, will say you live in a “cow town.” In the summer of ’96, many bonfires are built. “What?”

Susan George (political scientist)
Susan George (born June 29, 1934) is a well-known Franco-American political and social scientist, activist and writer on global social justice, Third World poverty, underdevelopment and debt. She is a fellow and president of the board of the Transnational Institute in Amsterdam. She is a fierce critic of the present policies of the International Monetary Fund (IMF), World Bank (IBRD) and what she calls their 'maldevelopment model'. She similarly criticizes the structural reform policies of the Washington Consensus on Third World development. She is of U.S. birth but now resides in France, and has dual citizenship since 1994. After attending a public, co-educational primary school, she went on to enroll at all-girls private preparatory academy. George's father encouraged all her interests, including those outside the realm of traditional femininity, such as science and baseball. As a young student, George was a voracious reader and always ranked first in her class.
Y)^_°(V) - How To Set Up Pooled Bitcoin Mining In Windows
(Please Note: This guide is mostly up to date…. syntax and URLs may not be 100% correct, please extrapolate if you have to and let me know in the comments so I can try to fix stuff… Updated 4-10-13) So, you've read my previous article about using your GPU to mine for bitcoins, but now that the difficulty is starting to get high absurd, you may be having a hard time generating any bitcions on your own (especially if you have non-specialized hardware). Never fear, there is a solution! NOTE: You really should take a look at my first article to make sure that your hardware is even capable of supporting opencl, and you should also be using the most recent version of the drivers for your particular graphics device. Also there is a bit of information on setting up Kiv's GUIMiner in my other guide, which will make setting up pooled mining even easier; I may further update this guide at some point. 1. 2. There are 4 boxes below threshold: Estimated, Unconfirmed, Confirmed, and Total reward. 3. 4.

Y)^_°(V) - How to get started using your GPU to mine for Bitcoins on Windows
(In a slight departure from my normal content…) Money for only running your computer!? It's more likely than you might think! No referral pyramid scam shit, you can make as much money as you have computing power to devote. ***NOTE: Since the difficulty is very high, unless you have an ASIC mining device and/or a very significant aggregate hash rate (over several TENS OF Ghash/sec or more) you are probably going to spend more on electricity than you can recoup in mined bitcoins, even when mining in a pool! (aside from the *possibility* of shortening the lifespan of your graphics card(s)/mining hardware). This post is aimed mostly at people who are already familiar with Bitcoin (Wikipedia page), and would like to get started using their GPU(s) to mine for bitcoins in a Windows environment. First of all, you are going to need a graphics card that supports CUDA and/or OpenCL; most graphics cards from the past 2-3 years will support this. 1. 2. 3. 4. (Recommended) 5. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. -f 60
