Their previous meeting minutes has been approved. The March 16 Mayfield Village Special Election Meeting has been approved.
Three post-election audits occurred. The Presidential Race, the Justice Supreme Court of Ohio,

Everything matched 100%

Motion of has been surpassed.
Agenda item #6 is being discussed.

Everything went very well.

A question about various voting methods, touching on the curb side voting process. The November 23rd election involved 24 stations were set up for voting with additional temporary staffing.
Acknowledgment of report has been approved. Thank yous abound,
Agenda Item #7 is now being discussed.
The PEO Performance report found that overall performance of election officials in Cuyahoga County was very strong. There was a significantly higher percentage of new workers involved in the November election. And, this was all in spite of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Great work!
An ongoing challenge will be convincing a decent percentage of the workers for future elections. Let's stay civically engaged Cuyahoga County.
Fewer elections were rejected but the department believes the raw number of rejected ballots is too high. Most common error is having a voter at the wrong precinct. There is no reason for the number to be this high as the tools are provided in training to address these errors.
Continued training emphasis will be on education of provisional voters and future poll workers. Cuyahoga BOE wants to keep the citizens engaged - both the voters and those who take a step further and work for BOE.
Questions by Ms. Inajo Chappel:
Has poll workers retention initiatives efforts happened before? Can we use grant money for this? Can we have poll worker recognition? We want to keep people coming back to work with us.
Answers by a BOE member,

We have a substantial amount of money from the state to pay POE members, we may be able to use it ongoing but it depends if we have access to it. Cuyahoga BOE CLE program will continue which allows attorney to acquire education credits.
Questions by a BOE member,

What are the courses?
Answers by a BOE member,

If you are a returning poll worker, you have the opportunity to take a full course online. About a third have used this service. For the real adventurous workers were able to log-in to the poll worker portal and access all educational tools.
Report has been acknowledge and approved.
Vouchers have been approved and passed.
A BOE workers has been acknowledged and approved.
Agenda item 9 New Business is being discussed.

Directive 2020-14 restricts cancellation of a voter only after they have been approved by the Ohio Secretary of State. Cuyahoga BOE is required to submit an update. They submitted one but has yet to hear a reply from OH SOS.
Around 8500 registrations have been certified to cancel.

Ms. Inajo Chappell requests a report be compiled to review the submission of cancellations and how the number of cancellations has been collected.
An update pertaining to a potential 11th Congressional District Election. An election day has not been announced yet as a vacancy has yet to occur.
Candidate deadline is usually 90 days before the election and are required to have at least 50 signatures of support but this may change.

Cuyahoga BOE generally advise candidates to not be circulate petitions as no election has not been announced. We all have to wait and see.
There is a risk if you are circulating petitions too earlier as the collection of the signatures may become outdated and invalid. No candidates want to be invalid.
Question: what is the grant money being used for?

A discussion about cords and vendors occurred.
Agenda item EXECUTIVE SESSION will occur in a private phone call.
Roughly 10 minutes passed after the executive session. They returned to say Happy holiday and new years to all.

Again, at such a key moment in UK and at such high political levels, evidence of deep misunderstanding of EU: The PM is under pressure in some quarters to delay #Brexit vote to allow her first to “improve” deal in Brussels BUT EU is determined not to budge at this stage

2) All EU leaders watching tomorrow’s vote. Of course they want to avoid a no deal #Brexit BUT they feel the deal - so painfully negotiated between EU and UK - is too fresh to re-open. Clarifications, yes but fundamental renegotiations, no.

3) The EU’s international reputation as a tough deal-maker is at stake here too. If Brussels now suddenly “gives in” to U.K. on EU red lines (eg backstop) then that would weaken the EU’s reputation in future trade negotiations with other non EU countries

4) Also on backstop the EU is unlikely to cave in to favour a relationship with a leaving member state (UK) against the explicit wishes and ignoring the deep concerns of a continuing member: Ireland.

5) Both the EU and the PM signed up to a guarantee to protect the border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland. If either the U.K. or EU can leave the backstop unilaterally then this clearly is no longer a guarantee.

The Republican Party is an authoritarian power structure.

For decades, it embraced greedy nihilists in order to win elections.

In the last 10+ years, a well-funded insurgency has infiltrated and captured it.

They are now threatening & purging any remaining opposition.

We can’t address the threat they pose to democracy without addressing the methods by which they maintain popular support.

This requires action across multiple fronts.

In terms of public policy, we are working on the right things:

-Bills to eliminate the GOP’s counter-majorian control (voting security, eliminating vote suppression)

-Exposing dark money networks who are funding them (forcing transparency for anonymous shell companies)

-Addressing the immediate socio-economic pain that places people in anxiety-laden debt traps, makes them feel isolated, and makes them ripe targets for disinformation/authoritarian messaging appeals (fighting Covid with a plan, financial relief, genuinely empathetic leadership)

Biden and the Dem Congress are working on all of these things already.

This is moving us in the right direction, and shows that they get what needs to be done here. This is good.

There are three areas that still concern me, that I have been trying to call attention to...

HUF / H!ndu Undivided Family - A thread

HUF or H!ndu undivided family is a special provision under the income tax act which allows H!ndu families to enjoy lesser payable income tax as compared to any other individual.

1/n


It also encompasses Buddhist, Ja!n & Sikh families.

HUF Essentially allows a Joint or any family 4 that matter 2 be treated as an individual & the family’s income 4m inherited property, wills and gifts 2 be taxed separately rather than being clubbed with individual’s income.
+

Essentially they can divide their income in two parts.

What does that mean? In essence, It means that it allows the individuals to reduce the payable income tax, as they do not have to consider income from HUF when calculating “their own” taxable income.

3/n

The income from inherited property,wills, gifts is accounted under HUF (with a separate PAN card) and since it is not summed with individual’s income, it warrants a lower payable tax.

4/n

What’s interesting is that, HUF is based on H!ndu law, which does not govern other families allowed to avail benefits of HUF, i.e Sikhs, Buddhists and Jains.

The BATTLE OF PAVAN KHIND (13 July 1660)

300 MARATHAS against 10000+ ADIL SHAHI TROOPS

A Sparta style last man stand at a mountain pass which ensured Shivaji Maharaj's safety.

Valour, loyalty and sacrifice!


Baji Prabhu Deshpande was one of the most able lieutenants of Shivaji. He sacrificed his life defending Shivaji in a heroic last stand known as the "Battle of Pavan Khind" in which his force was hugely outnumbered.(1)

In this battle he became a martyr, but managed to halt the enemy forces for several hours, which secured Shivaji’s safety and victory on another front. Without this heroic last stand Shivaji’s glorious career may have been cut short.(2)


Baji Prabhu was senior to Shivaji. In the beginning he opposed Shivaji being from a rival Maratha clan, but realised that Shivaji stood for national resurgence. Henceforth he became a friend and loyal supporter of Shivaji.(3)

In 1660, Shivaji was trapped in the fort of Panhala, under siege and vastly outnumbered by an Adilshahi army led by general Siddhi Jauhar.(4)

Maker movement is doing to startups what startups did to corporations.

Here is why 👇

Startups fixed the problem of innovation, that corporations lack.

In big, slow corporations, innovation is a RISK and distraction from the core $$$ profitable business.

Agile startups could launch, iterate fast and eventually stumble upon new growing market opportunities.

However,

When a startup reaches product-market-fit, it has to 🚀 "grow at all costs" and reach market dominance before some giant corporation can replicate their new product and distribute it to their existing giant customer base.

Startup's "growth at all costs" often means growth at the expense of charging customers $$$ money.

Hence, to be sustainable, startups have to constantly chase investor money.

Startup teams spend more time finding and pleasing investors, than finding and pleasing customers.

95% of startups die because they run out of (investor) money + no business model + crazy investor expectations.

Same way corporations die, when unable to adjust to new technology and market shifts.
