The Financial Times highlights how Iranians are using an old system of money transfer to evade Western sanctions and creating a clandestine black market in capital transfers. Their diagram is slightly complex, but it explains the system of hawala well:Hawala, a cheap and remarkably reliable system for money transfer, dates back to the eighth century but in recent decades has become the favoured method employed by migrant workers from south Asia and the Middle East to send earnings back home. The system has been used by business too – and since the US and the United Nations started curtailing Iran’s access to the international financial system following the regime’s refusal to stop enriching uranium, the use of hawala in Iran has rocketed, according to business people, money changers

If you look at old Muhammad Ali fights one thing you will notice is that his reaction and evasion to punches is probably the best ever witnessed in the ring. Being lightning fast I'm sure his opponents would get frustrated not been able to hit him. Reaction and evasion technique is something that every fighter MUST have. I have developed a way of training this which requires nothing more than a sheet of paper. Its called the paper drop drill. Starting from a normal standing position, hold the sheet of paper as high as you can then let it drop, then quickly assume your natural fighting stance as the paper drops down above your head. Being so light in weight the paper will sway from side to side through the air, and the objective is to use movement, side stepping, bobbing, weaving and slipping, to not let the paper touch any part of your body. When the paper drops to about chest level, flick it up again and let it drop. Also, when flicked back up, you may push it away from you, so move

*With less than two weeks before his incarceration date for tax evasion, Ron Isley hopes a presidential pardon will be his get out of jail card. Def Jam record execs are using their marketing wares to drum up support for an executive presidential pardon for the beloved member of The Isley Brothers family and singing group. Isley was convicted on five counts of tax evasion and one count of willful failure to file a tax return. Prosecutors said that Isley avoided paying taxes between 1997 and 2002 by demanding all performance fees be paid in cash, a total estimated in the millions of dollars. Prosecutors added that Isley lived luxuriously during that time, buying a yacht, two homes and two Bentley cars, assigning their ownership to his wife or assorted corporations, while failing to pay some US $300,000 in taxes in 2002 alone. Isley also cashed royalty cheques paid to his late brother O’Kelly Isley during that time, according to government lawyers. **************************

The offenses carry a total statutory maximum possible punishment of up to thirty-five years imprisonment, a fine of up to $1,250,000, five years supervised release, and mandatory restitution. Sentencing is scheduled for April 16, 2007.ERIC DEAN TROUTT admitted as part of the plea that he evaded the assessment of federal income tax on his 2003 U.S. Individual Income Tax Return by not reporting approximately $200,000 he received as payment for legal services, by filing a false tax return, and by using a trust account to conceal the income.

“Client is a private investment company domiciled in the Bahamas used as a vehicle to manage the investment needs of beneficial owner, now a retired professional who achieved much success in his career and accumulated wealth during his lifetime for retirement in an orderly way.” Such was the Riggs Bank’s anonymity-preserving description of dictator Augusto Pinochet, whose death last month inspired thousands of Chileans to celebrate in the streets. Pinochet, in addition to having directed death squads to torture and murder thousands of his opponents, enriched himself through drug and arms trafficking and other lucrative forms of corruption. From 1979 onward, he maintained accounts worth an estimated $6 billion to $8 billion in the Washington, D.C.-based Riggs, thus evading taxes in Chile. Other dictators and ruling elites in the developing world have defrauded their countries by funneling huge amounts of untaxed revenue into foreign banks and tax havens, inclu

Hardcore Young-Earth Creationist Kent Hovind and his wife were sentenced to ten years in jail for failing to pay almost one million dollars in taxes to the IRS. Get this: his defense was "he and his employees are workers of God and therefore exempt from paying taxes." I'm still laughing over that one.Hovind does have hope, though. Shelley the Republican has instructed her readers to "Let us pray to Jesus that Kent and Jo will be allowed to continue their important ministry and continue teaching young scientists about the many flaws in Darwin's theory of evolution." I'm sure God will pull some strings and bail Hovind out, right?Once again notice the mention of Darwin's name. They really hate the guy.Read the full story here.

Just Read It!The Right to Information is a fundamental right under our constitution. The RTI took birth to fulfill this fundamental demand .Therefore, in my opinion , the law makers made explicit the overriding effect of this law on all other laws of the country, by introducing Chapter VI which contains Section 22 . The Said section states""The provisions of this Act shall have effect notwithstanding anything inconsistent therewith contained in the Official Secrets Act, 1923, and any other law for the time being in force or in any instrument having effect by virtue of any law other than this Act."Since the parliament passed a law and made explicit the weightage of the new law i.e RTI Act , there should not be any doubt about the preference of RTI over other law. Going by the decision of Chief Information Commission , it seems that even CIC does not think so. The decision of the CIC in past is that in many cases related to , Income Tax , it disposed of the application rejecting the RTI
