There is a conflict that since the beginning of twentieth century has been causing deaths and nowadays it seems to be in an extreme situation. It is the Arab-Israeli conflict, and this news that you can read at the New York Times reflects the level of the struggles taking place this very morning.

ReplyDeleteI have been looking for optimistic news but unfortunately I have not found it. Anyway, I am adding this link because I am really worried about the climate change. As you can read in the article, in the World Bank president’s opinion “we will never end poverty if we don’t tackle climate change”. This article is based in a report that he wrote with the hope that it shocks us into action.

ReplyDeleteHi mates!
ReplyDeleteHere you have a link from the BBC website that I think that it's worth reading:

Next weekend's race in Brazil will decide the Formula I championship. Sebastian Vettel is the favourite for achieving the drivers' title, but our compatriot Fernando Alonso has also a little chance to get it, so they are both excited about it.

SICAV or the legal fiscal Paradise in Spain!
ReplyDeleteDear mates, the first time I read about this issue I couldn’t believe it, there is an easy and legal way to avoid paying taxes in Spain! You just pay 1% of your money, no matter how much it is. Well, you need a big amount of money to constitute this type of society, so is not for people like us.
This type of society is being used by many rich and famous people, bank owners, businessmen, monarchy members and of course the Church. I’m sure you will be surprised with some names.
The tax office inspectors are not allowed to investigate these societies, our current government, as well as the previous one, forbid the inspectors to carry on any single inspection.
This is just another example of what the politicians are doing for the people of this country, while a worker can pay up to 50% of its salary in taxes depending on his incomes, a person with some millions of euros would pay just the 1%, and moreover these euros are producing more money out of Spain, they even don’t have to use it here… amazing.
I’m sure that if you did not know about this at least you will find it interesting:
