Advocates of economic globalization, like the Vancouver Board of Trade and B.C. real estate magnate David Choi, have traditionally opposed foreign-asset disclosure laws, says Millionaire Migrants.
But even centre-left parties, such as B.C.’s NDP government in the 1990s, have spoken against federal foreign-asset disclosure legislation.
Non-disclosure of assets is a cultural trait of ethnic Chinese, Jenny Kwan is quoted saying at the time in Millionaire Migrants.
“The Chinese are very private about their money.” A law requiring them to disclose assets, Kwan said, “goes against our culture.
Collapsed DVD and games rental firm Blockbuster is to close 129 of its 528 stores in the coming weeks and make 760 of its 4,190 employees redundant, its administrator confirmed today.
Thirty-one stores have already been put on notice of closure with a number of closing-down promotions announced.
Lee Manning, of administrator Deloitte, said: 'Having reviewed the portfolio with management, the store closure plan is an inevitable consequence of having to restructure the company to a profitable core which is capable of being sold.
'We would like to thank the company's employees for their support and professionalism during this difficult time.
The administrator said an employee helpline and an 'employee assistance programme' are in place to help staff find other jobs.
The firm's trading woes were blamed on competition from internet firms and digital streaming of movies and games.
Blockbuster had struggled to adapt to the changing market and rivalry from internet retailers including Netflix, Amazon's LoveFilm and iTunes, which now offers a movie rental service.
The devastating impact of the internet on Britain's high street had already been laid bare with the demise of camera chain Jessops and electricals group Comet, which also cited competition from online players as a major reason for their downfall.
Blockbuster's administration came just a day after music and entertainment chain HMV went under, following dismal Christmas sales.
Leading Republicans yesterday expressed outrage over Mayor Giuliani’s very public late-night dinner and stroll with gal pal Judi Nathan, as political fallout over the mayor’s extracurricular activities grew.
* A new Post poll found Giuliani’s problems on the home front have eroded his popularity – but the vast majority of voters still want him to stay in the Senate race.
* The mayor suddenly canceled an upstate campaign appearance scheduled for last night.
* Giuliani huddled at Gracie Mansion with trusted friend Peter Powers as a decision is at hand – possibly in the next 48 hours – on whether he’ll stay in the Senate race.
After Giuliani’s restaurant rendezvous with Nathan on Friday night made the front page of The Post, with a photo of the smiling lovebirds and the headline, “On The Town,” shockwaves rippled through GOP circles.
“My God!” was the reaction of one appalled top elected Republican.
The Rudy-Judi public display of affection on the streets of Manhattan, along with the mayor’s decision to scrap a GOP dinner in Oneonta, left Republicans increasingly pessimistic that he would stay in the race.
“You’re kidding me,” said another Republican supporter of Giuliani’s media-friendly outing with Nathan, which ended with a 10-block walk to her apartment and a goodnight kiss on the cheek.
Amid signs the most important decision of his political career is at hand, Giuliani also met for an hour at Gracie Mansion with Powers, who wouldn’t comment on what he discussed with his friend of four decades.
On the political front, the mayor said he bowed out of the Oneonta event – 230 miles upstate – because he needed time to ponder his cancer treatment and political future and he wasn’t up to the long car ride.
Aides said the mayor was to meet with one of his doctors.
Giuliani cautioned that people shouldn’t read too much into his time off the campaign trail.
“You should not view the fact that I will cancel several things next week as anything other than the fact that I didn’t get the chance to meet with the doctors that I had to meet with last week,” he said.
But top Republicans interpreted the Oneonta cancellation and probable dropping of this week’s long-scheduled two-day California fund-raising tour as more evidence the mayor is likely to bow out of the race against Hillary Rodham Clinton.
“It certainly gives the impression he’s not running, but with Rudy you never know,” said Rep. Peter King (R-Nassau), who is considering stepping in if the mayor bails out.
A high-ranking GOP source described Republican powerbrokers as being in a state of total shock, anger and panic over Giuliani’s conduct and the possibility that he may not run.
“People are stunned,” the source said.
Hi-Rez Studios has added another member of the Greek pantheon to MOBA game SMITE's roster. Players can now become Aphrodite, the goddess of love.
Aphrodite is a support character with an interesting twist. She can designate a teammate as her "soul mate," so that the two will share all the buffs she casts. She's no sidekick, though, as she has several magical attacks at her disposal as well.
SMITE already features several Greek mythological figures, including Ares and Hercules. Zeus was one of the first two gods announced for the game. Drawing inspiration from an ancient religion has its benefits, namely that it doesn't result in protests.
Aphrodite was added in patch 0.1.1403 for the game. This update also come with a number of other tweaks to the game. You can read the full changes list at Hi-Rez's website.
Looking to make shopping easier for health-conscious customers, Kroger will begin testing a nutritional initiative Wednesday in 23 Central Kentucky stores, including all of its Lexington locations.
Among the new offerings will be easy-to-understand nutritional shelf tags on a majority of products, dietitians on site to assist customers and a new health station — think the old-style blood pressure machines but with many advances.
The stores will serve as a testing ground for the entire country, as Kroger examines how shoppers respond to "Health Matters at Kroger."
"Many of our customers have told us they want to make healthier choices for their families, and we have listened," said Kroger spokesman Tim McGurk, adding that the program is "far more" than just shelf tags.
DUBIOUS DEDUCTIONS. Recent reports: Some defense contractors have been charging the government for such things as dinner parties, country-club fees and golf shirts. Reaction: A new bill in the Senate would ban any tax deduction for advertising, entertainment or other promotional expenses connected with weapons sales. Among the sponsors: Sen. William Proxmire, D- Wis., who cited auditors' estimates that such expenses cost taxpayers up to $500 million a year. Proxmire said the real purpose of such promotion "is to get the company's name before the public, generate name recognition and thereby promote the firm's other products or services."
A New Hampshire woman was arrested four times in twenty-six hours, an impressive accomplishment no one really wants to brag about.
Let's take a look at Joyce Coffey, rebel without a cause.
Arrest #1: Tuesday afternoon. Blasting the AC/DC song "Highway to Hell," even after a warning from police.
Arrest #2: Tuesday night. More loud music. Possibly even the same AC/DC song, although the article doesn't specify. It's an earworm, that one.
Arrest #3: Just before dawn Wednesday. Yep, loud music. And at this point, people are trying to sleep, making the third infraction extra heinous. Also, isn't there some sort of three strikes law in place? Lock this woman up forever where she can listen to "Highway to Hell" in peace.
Arrest #4: Wednesday. Pumped up from all the AC/DC, Joyce decided to throw a frying pan at her nephew when he tried to clear some of his stuff out of her house. Is this AC/DC enthusiast also a hoarder?
Coffey was jailed Friday. Now safely behind bars, she can't inflict her music choices or kitchen tools on those around her.

You may decide to research teaching or student learning by simply gathering more information from students about their study habits or by analyzing existing student performance on assignments, or you may choose to design a more systematic scholarship of teaching and learning project to share with a wider audience (see the Center for Engaged Learning’s discussion of SoTL vs. Scholarly Teaching for more on the distinction between scholarly teaching and SoTL). Whatever your goal, CATL can provide support and resources for scholarly approaches to teaching and learning.
What student learning or teaching “problem” do you want to investigate or explore? What do you want to know? What is already known about this topic?
What evidence do you need to answer this question? From whom? What do you already have, and what do you need to collect? Can you partner with students to gather it?
Schedule a consultation with a CATL faculty member to talk about your project.
Apply for a CATL Teaching & Learning Grant, which include support for individual and collaborative SoTL projects, or for a competitive, two-year CATL Scholar Fellowship.
Find out more about ethical considerations for SoTL Research or visit Elon University’s Institutional Review Board (IRB) webpages to apply for IRB approval for your project.
Attend a CATL Writing Residency, a week-long, off-campus summer retreat focused on SoTL writing projects.

A non-profit organization is making it possible for thousands of Missouri homeless children to start school with the right supplies.
Imagine the embarrassment of arriving at school on the first day without pencils, paper or other supplies. Feed the Children and state education department are trying to prevent students from that embarrassment by giving supplies to school districts, shelters and non-profits. Organizations serving the homeless are asking for more supplies than in past years, said Department Homeless Coordinator Kim Oligschlaeger.
"Right now with so many foreclosures we’re seeing a lot more homeless students enrolling," she said. "They’re harder to identify."
Part of the reason homeless students are hard to identify is that they don’t just live in shelters, Oligschlaeger said. The definition of a homeless student is one who lacks a fixed regular and adequate nighttime residence, which includes those living in shelters, hotels, motels, transitional housing and those doubled up (living with other families).
Homeless students will likely need additional supplies during the school year, Oligschlaeger said.
"This probably won’t supply districts for the whole school year," she said. "On average districts are getting about 20 or 22 backpacks and maybe 25 zero to five bags so this will go to their most needy families."
For the 2006-2007 school year there were 13,620 homeless students enrolled in Missouri schools.
JAIPUR: Festival of colours is around the corner and the shops of the city are decked up with colours of Holi. One can find vendors selling colours on the streets, bargaining with the customers, who are looking to purchase the colours as per their pockets.
However, while focusing on the price, customers do not look into the quality of the product which can be very harmful for their skin causing itching and rashes. This can eventually cause skin-related complications like eczema or dermatitis. As per the doctors of the city, dry skin can face the major harm for these products are inorganic in nature and are made up of chemicals and glass powder, which can easily penetrate the skin.
It’s that time of the year again when one needs to rein in fun by caution. With the festival of colour just a few days away, markets have been flooded with colours that may be harmful for the skin, eyes and cause allergy. While there are measures to control food adulteration, little seems to have been done to check spurious colours that may contain harmful chemicals. Significantly, these colours are cheaper than herbal colours and are the first choice of many consumers. Every year, hundreds of cases of people complaining of allergies and even respiratory disorders are reported. The administration also needs to keep a vigil on revellers who get tipsy and drive dangerously on the roads.
The solution to this is organic colours prepared by rose petals and starch, which are totally chemical free. Bhayaji Fida Hussain shop at Tripolia bazaar has been selling organic colours since the establishment of Jaipur city. Naseer Khan (63) claimed that these colours are edible as they do not cause any harm to the body. “It takes around one month to make these colours from rose petals. Our shop is not seasonal so we keep manufacturing colours. They are not harmful irrespective of the quantity used,” said Naseer.
However, good quality comes with high price. One packet of 100 gm of organic colour is sold for Rs 20 and the same quantity of chemically produced colours is sold for Rs 5 which comes affordable for the public. “A box containing six small plastic bottles of liquid colours is sold for Rs 25 and the similar box is charged higher in case of organic colours. We also keep chemical colours and sell them on customer demand after informing them of their ill-effects,” added Naseer.
SOFIANE BOUFAL scored a stunning solo goal for Southampton against West Brom this evening and it got Martin Keown very excited.
Boufal lit up an otherwise poor game at St Mary's to beat Tony Pulis' side 1-0.
The Morocco international picked the ball up deep inside his own half and went on an extraordinary run up the pitch.
After beating several West Brom players, the Southampton man expertly finished past Ben Foster in goal.
Keown was commentating on the game and was amazed with what he saw from Boufal, who only came on in the 81st minute.
“Well an absolutely cracking moment in the game," Keown said on BT Sport.
"Boufal, when he came on I was going to say he wants to run with it.
"He’s playing in midfield and I thought maybe it was the wrong position.
"But it’s an incredible run, he takes it from almost the edge of his own box.
"Look at him here, you wonder what he’s doing with it.
"But he breaks away, that change of pace, and now he’s up and running in that area he wants to be in.
"He’s got West Brom defenders frightened to death of him, he gets onto his right foot and it’s a beautiful finish, it really is.
"He makes it look easy, he’s looking around, he gets onto that right foot.
"He steadies himself and bang, great finish."
Boufal's goal was only his second since his £16million move from Lille in August 2016.
