Doug McHoney (PwC's International Tax Services Global Leader) is joined by Tom Patten, a London-based US International Tax Partner at PwC. Tom focuses on inbound investment into the U.S. and returns to the podcast for a timely discussion on Sections 891 and 899, two lesser-known but increasingly important provisions in the international tax landscape.  Doug and Tom discuss the resurgence of Section 891 in light of a January 2025 executive order that directs Treasury to identify discriminatory or extraterritorial foreign taxes. They cover how Section 891 operates, potential implications for non-US citizens, and its interaction with treaties. The episode then turns to proposed Section 899 and a new House proposal aimed at modifying the base erosion and anti-abuse tax (BEAT). Tom and Doug examine how these retaliatory measures differ, overlap, and might evolve. They close with practical advice for multinational taxpayers navigating an uncertain legislative environment and the future of Pillar Two negotiations. 

In the name of politeness, we often sugarcoat or dilute the truth, twisting it into something softer that we think the other person would rather hear. Instead of saying what we truly mean, we go out of our way to smooth over situations in hopes they'll land better. Here's the issue: when we start holding back our real feelings, we disconnect from ourselves and others. We step out of alignment with our inner wisdom.  Though society teaches us that maintaining peace is more important than being honest, human beings are meant to express themselves. While we may fear that speaking our minds will lead to conflict, there's nothing more harmful than sugarcoating the truth. Suppressing our true feelings damages our relationships and makes us lose integrity. It's impossible to live fully and authentically when we're weighed down by unexpressed emotions and holding back our true essence. But where does this need for politeness come from? How can we stop withholding and start expressing ourselves honestly?  In this episode, we explore how to break free from sugar coating and embrace genuine self-expression.   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  -Truth is located in the body, not the brain  When we're in integrity, our body sensations will tell us when we're concealing instead of revealing. Why do we need to get out of our heads to gain access to this valuable raw data?  -Withdraw, withhold and project  Withholding our feelings immediately puts us in a state of disconnection. How does it lead to us projecting and turning our problem into someone else's? -Clear the debris  People think withholding is the best way to maintain a relationship. The truth is, the relationship loses its integrity when we're not honest. How do we move through a kerfuffle in our friendships without interrupting the flow of connection?   About Your Hosts Katie Hendricks, Ph.D., BC-DMT, is a pioneer in body intelligence and conscious loving with over 40 years of experience.

Are you living as if God's blessings might run out? In "Test and See His Provision," Pastor Mark guides us through Malachi 3:6–12, reminding us that God is faithful even when we're not. This sermon encourages us to examine our hearts, highlighting that true obedience and generosity flow naturally from gratitude for God's overwhelming grace.In this message, you'll learn that God doesn't leave His people stuck in their mistakes. Instead, He graciously invites them—and us—to return to Him, promising blessings beyond our imagination. These promises are ultimately fulfilled in Christ, who has richly blessed us through His life, death, and resurrection. Our response to this profound generosity should be joyful stewardship of our whole lives.

In this episode we're delving into the importance of honesty and truth-telling in the healing process after betrayal. We'll talk about the courage required to face one's own truths and the detrimental effects of withholding honesty in relationships, and we'll explore the concept of 'mini betrayals' and how they can lead to larger issues in relationships. Key Takeaways: Honesty is essential for healing and growth. Self-honesty requires courage and vulnerability. Withholding truth creates distance and resentment. Mini betrayals can lead to larger issues in relationships. Facing our truths can lead to clarity and alignment. Silence in relationships often leads to assumptions and disconnection. Truth-telling is a commitment to authenticity. Embracing complexity in truth allows for personal evolution. Avoiding truth can lead to feelings of being stuck. Sharing truths can foster deeper connections with others.

What happens when a prosecutor is so convinced of their own story that they ignore evidence to the contrary? In the latest twist of the Delphi case, Richard Allen's defense team is calling out the state of Indiana for allegedly withholding key evidence—again. This time, they claim an inmate's letters suggest that someone else may have confessed to the murders. Is this just another case of legal maneuvering, or are we witnessing confirmation bias run amok in the justice system? Psychotherapist and author Shavaun Scott joins the conversation to break down the psychology behind prosecutors who seemingly refuse to let go of their version of events. Are they just determined to win, or is something more insidious at play? And the bigger question—when critical thinking takes a back seat to blind belief, how does that impact justice for all? #DelphiMurders #TrueCrime #RichardAllen #JusticeSystem #HiddenKillers #PsychologyOfCrime #LegalThriller Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

In this episode, we explore Meditations 3.11 and its profound insights into how we process and assent to impressions. The Stoics believed that our initial reactions to external events—our impressions—are often flawed, and it's our responsibility to critically examine them before accepting them as truth. This practice is essential for making rational, virtuous decisions instead of reacting emotionally or impulsively. Marcus Aurelius reminds us that true greatness comes from methodically and truthfully testing everything we encounter. This means breaking things down into their essential components, considering their role in the larger universe, and determining what virtue is best suited to respond to them. In a world that often prioritizes personal feelings over objective reality, Stoicism challenges us to cultivate reason and clarity. MEDITATIONS 3.11 “For nothing is so able to create greatness of mind as the power methodically and truthfully to test each thing that meets one in life, and always to look upon it so as to attend at the same time to the use which this particular thing contributes to a Universe of a certain definite kind, what value it has in reference to the Whole, and what to man, who is a citizen of the highest City, whereof all other cities are like households.” THREE TAKEAWAYS — Assenting to impressions requires caution: We should resist the urge to immediately accept our first reactions as truth. Instead, we must analyze the data, break it down, and ensure our conclusions align with reality. — Reason must lead our decisions: Emotions are valuable, but they should be informed by rational understanding. A truly great person is one who sees things as they are and allows reason to guide their responses. — Withholding assent is not neutrality: Refusing to form an opinion does not mean avoiding bias; it is itself an assent to inaction. Stoicism calls us to engage with reality and make rational, virtuous choices based on the best information available. Join The Society of Stoics at https://community.stoicismpod.com.

What do you do when you have a brand new handheld console coming out? You turn to a series that is synonymous with your home console. We're going back to late 2004 (or early 2005… or late 2005, depending on the region you're in) to look at a turn-based strategy spin-off. We're talking Metal Gear Acid (or Metal Gear Ac!d, however you're meant to pronounce that).On this episode of Stealth Boom Boom, we chat a little bit about importing a Japanese PSP as well as an American UMD, and a back of the box for the handheld's launch window. We also look at how acid dissolves metal, fashionable acid jazz, and Colm does his longest “how does this game play?” bit ever.Here are some of the things you're gonna hear us chat about in our review: Hitman Go; doing nothing, watching the enemy, and plotting a route; trying to figure out if a gun without a silencer is just as quiet as a gun that does have a silencer; hiding quite important things like how to view the map from an aerial view and how to shoot some weapons; chasing down a guard before the call goes through after he's spotted you; not enough places to hide and plenty of guards to kill; failure via randomisation (and just deck management, in general); mission-critical cards; Balatro; how cost changes who goes when; controlling Snake AND Teliko; stacking buffs; the power of the XM8; mystifying decisions around movement; a game of Ludo; a story that's nutty in a slightly different way to regular Metal Gear Solid, but told in a terribly boring way; a dramatic performance; music that's better than you expect; and the most peculiar in-game adverts. After all that, we take you through what some of the critics were saying about the game around the time it came out, and then we give you our final verdicts on whether Metal Gear Acid is a Pass, a Play, or an Espionage Explosion.For those who would like to play along at home, we'll be discussing, reviewing and dissecting Invisible, Inc. on the next episode of Stealth Boom Boom.IMPORTANT LINKS TO THINGS

158. Choosing Likeability Over Respect This episode discusses the critical balance leaders must strike between being liked and being respected. Explore the signs that indicate a leader may be prioritizing likeability over respect, such as avoiding tough conversations and withholding constructive criticism. The conversation delves into the challenges leaders face in decision-making and the importance of empowering team members. Sue emphasizes the need for consistent leadership and the impact of short-term harmony on long-term success. The episode concludes with actionable insights for leaders to reflect on their behaviors and create a visibility action plan for improvement. In this episode: Leaders often struggle with the balance of being liked versus respected. Choosing likeability can lead to avoiding tough conversations. It's essential to provide constructive feedback for team growth. Leaders must make difficult decisions for the benefit of the team. Promoting unprepared employees can harm team dynamics. Withholding criticism does not help team members improve. Praising subpar work can mislead employees about expectations. Inconsistent leadership sends mixed messages to the team. Empowering team members is crucial for their development. Leaders should reflect on their behaviors and make necessary changes.

The case against Karen Read has taken yet another dramatic turn, and if you thought this legal rollercoaster was slowing down, think again. This week, Read's defense team filed a motion to dismiss all charges, citing "extraordinary governmental misconduct." That's not just a legal jab—it's a full-on haymaker, accusing prosecutors of withholding evidence, tampering with the jury, and even altering key video footage that could prove Read's innocence. For those just tuning in, Karen Read stands accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, by allegedly running him over with her SUV on a snowy night in January 2022. The prosecution's story? Read was drunk, angry, and intentionally struck O'Keefe, then left the scene. The defense's story? Read is being framed, and the evidence against her has been manipulated to fit a narrative that conveniently ignores other possible explanations for O'Keefe's death. Her first trial, which kicked off in April 2024, was a chaotic spectacle featuring more than 65 prosecution witnesses, a much shorter defense witness list, and ultimately—no verdict. After days of deadlock, the jury just couldn't agree, and Judge Beverly Cannone declared a mistrial in July. Now, with a retrial scheduled for April 1, Read's attorneys are coming out swinging, arguing that the whole case should be thrown out before it even starts. So, what's the big bombshell this time? According to the defense, prosecutors withheld crucial surveillance footage that could exonerate Read. Specifically, a clip from the Canton Police Station's sallyport—a secured garage area—shows someone approaching the taillight of Read's SUV on the day she was arrested. If that doesn't set off alarm bells, consider this: the defense didn't get their hands on that footage until January 2025, nearly three years after the incident and after an entire trial had already played out. Why does that matter? Well, Read's defense has long argued that her tail light was tampered with and that shattered pieces were planted near O'Keefe's body to make it look like she hit him. If there's footage showing someone messing with her car at the police station, that theory suddenly holds a lot more weight. The motion to dismiss calls this “a mockery of Ms. Read's right to due process.” And honestly, it's hard to argue with that phrasing. But the missing footage doesn't stop there. The defense claims that there's a full 42-minute gap in the sallyport surveillance video from when Read's SUV first arrived. If that missing footage were to show the taillight intact before it mysteriously turned up shattered at the crime scene, it would blow a hole right through the prosecution's case. The defense is now demanding a copy of the original video, complete with metadata, so experts can determine whether it was altered or selectively edited. The prosecution, of course, is pushing back. They deny any ethical violations or misconduct, let alone anything serious enough to dismiss the case entirely. They also argue that Read's defense team is grasping at straws, trying to create doubt where there isn't any. But considering the prosecution has already been caught withholding evidence, that's a tough sell. And it doesn't end there. The defense is also battling accusations that they secretly paid accident reconstruction experts from ARCCA for their opinions. Read's attorneys insist that they never paid for testimony, only reimbursing travel expenses under guidance from the U.S. Attorney's Office. The prosecution, meanwhile, has been trying to get those same experts banned from the retrial. If you're wondering why, well—it's probably because their findings don't exactly support the state's theory. At this point, Read has already had multiple motions to dismiss denied, and she's appealed those rulings all the way up to Massachusetts' highest court and even federal court. But this latest motion to dismiss is the most explosive yet, accusing prosecutors of bending the system to secure a conviction at any cost. Whether the judge agrees remains to be seen, but one thing is clear—this case is far from over. Next up, Read and her team are set to return to Norfolk Superior Court for motion hearings on Tuesday and Wednesday, with a pre-trial conference scheduled for Friday. Meanwhile, the case is also heading to federal appeals court this week, adding yet another layer of complexity to an already tangled legal battle. #KarenRead #JohnOKeefe #LegalBattle #CourtroomDrama #TrueCrime Want to listen to ALL of our podcasts AD-FREE?

The case against Karen Read has taken yet another dramatic turn, and if you thought this legal rollercoaster was slowing down, think again. This week, Read's defense team filed a motion to dismiss all charges, citing "extraordinary governmental misconduct." That's not just a legal jab—it's a full-on haymaker, accusing prosecutors of withholding evidence, tampering with the jury, and even altering key video footage that could prove Read's innocence. For those just tuning in, Karen Read stands accused of killing her boyfriend, Boston police officer John O'Keefe, by allegedly running him over with her SUV on a snowy night in January 2022. The prosecution's story? Read was drunk, angry, and intentionally struck O'Keefe, then left the scene. The defense's story? Read is being framed, and the evidence against her has been manipulated to fit a narrative that conveniently ignores other possible explanations for O'Keefe's death. Her first trial, which kicked off in April 2024, was a chaotic spectacle featuring more than 65 prosecution witnesses, a much shorter defense witness list, and ultimately—no verdict. After days of deadlock, the jury just couldn't agree, and Judge Beverly Cannone declared a mistrial in July. Now, with a retrial scheduled for April 1, Read's attorneys are coming out swinging, arguing that the whole case should be thrown out before it even starts. So, what's the big bombshell this time? According to the defense, prosecutors withheld crucial surveillance footage that could exonerate Read. Specifically, a clip from the Canton Police Station's sallyport—a secured garage area—shows someone approaching the taillight of Read's SUV on the day she was arrested. If that doesn't set off alarm bells, consider this: the defense didn't get their hands on that footage until January 2025, nearly three years after the incident and after an entire trial had already played out.

It is said that desperate times call for desperate measures, but sometimes, in the heat of the moment, those measures can be downright cruel. We've seen Job's so-called friends escalate their attacks, but today, Eliphaz stops pulling punches altogether. In fact, Eliphaz goes so far as to fabricate sins that Job never committed. Oppressing the poor? Withholding food and water from the needy? Sounds like a cheap shot from a man running out of theological arguments. But here's a deeper question: Why do we, like Eliphaz, rush to explain suffering with neat and tidy answers? Why do we prefer blaming the victim instead of sitting with the mystery of God's ways?  The Rev. Dr. Curtis Deterding, pastor of Zion Lutheran Church in Fort Myers, FL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Job 22.  Why do the righteous suffer? That's the burning question at the heart of the book of Job—one of the most profound and challenging books in all of Scripture. From a Lutheran perspective, Job's story isn't just about a man enduring unimaginable hardship; it's about wrestling with God's will, grappling with well-meaning but misguided advice, and ultimately finding comfort in God's grace rather than human understanding. As Job's friends offer simplistic answers, Job demands the truth, and God's response reminds us of His infinite wisdom and mercy. Through it all, we see glimpses of Christ—the truly innocent sufferer—who redeems our pain and points us to the cross, where suffering meets salvation. Join us as we journey through Job, confronting tough questions about faith, suffering, and God's mysterious ways with hope grounded in Christ alone.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations.

Learning emunah means learning about who Hashem is and how He interacts with us. If we truly want to understand Hashem, we must also learn what His will is. Often, we make assumptions about what Hashem wants, but in most cases, His will is not something we can determine on our own—it must be taught to us. For example, a person might think that giving large amounts of money to tzedakah justifies earning that money even at the expense of hurting others. However, this is entirely against Hashem's will. Withholding money that is rightfully owed to others violates several negative commandments in the Torah. No matter how much tzedakah one gives, it can never justify wrongdoing. The Gemara in Bava Batra states that stealing from a person is worse than stealing from the Beit HaMikdash . In Bava Kama , the Gemara teaches that if a person's ox damages an ox belonging to the Beit HaMikdash , he is exempt from payment. However, if his ox damages another person's ox, he is fully responsible. The Tiferet Shmuel derives from these sugyot that Hashem considers our friend's money even more important than money designated for the Beit HaMikdash . This teaches us that it is Hashem's will for us to be extremely careful with other people's money— even more so than we would be with money designated for holy purposes. Taking from one person and giving that money to charity is not only unjust—it is counterproductive. The greatest tzedakah one can do is conducting business with chesed and ensuring that our fellow Jews can earn a livelihood with dignity. The Rambam lists eight levels of tzedakah , and the highest form is helping someone become self-sufficient. How, then, can a person damage another's livelihood and justify it by giving the money to charity? The Chafetz Chaim , in Ahavat Chesed , writes that the Torah is filled with lessons teaching us to perform chesed . Hashem created us in His image, meaning that we are meant to reflect His middot . Just as Hashem loves to give and help others, we are naturally inclined to do the same. When a person develops a giving nature—both in thought and in action—he emulates Hashem and, in doing so, draws close to Him. Conversely, when someone acts selfishly, stepping on others to raise himself up, he removes the tzelem Elokim within him, thereby distancing himself from Hashem. The purpose of our journey through this world is to accustom ourselves to cling to Hashem in this world so we will be able to bask in the radiance of His Shekhinah in the Next. Hashem is חפץ חסד —He desires that we do chesed for one another. If someone wants to cling to Hashem, he must be careful with other people's money. If ever presented with an opportunity to take advantage of another financially, a person should stop and remind himself: "I want to cling to Hashem. I have the opportunity to do the greatest tzedakah—to help my friend stay on his feet and ensure his business succeeds. That is the will of Hashem, and that is what will make me truly great."

Pastor Mike teaches that many are accepting teaching about condemnation without even knowing it. God is not inflicting the negative or withholding the good from those who believe Him! Audio>

We want to work with YOU! 15 Minute Free Consultation  Start healing now! Set up a Coaching Session Welcome to our enlightening podcast episode on financial behaviors within relationships, where we delve into the intricate topics of emotional spending, financial withholding, and financial infidelity. Continuing our finance series, this episode explores the psychological underpinnings and relational dynamics that drive these behaviors, offering insights into how they potentially impact trust and create conflict. We begin by unpacking the concept of emotional spending – a coping mechanism that offers temporary relief from emotional distress but leads to long-term financial strain. Conversely, the episode examines emotional withholding, where finances become a tool for punishing or controlling a partner, thus creating a power imbalance. Furthermore, we discuss financial infidelity, defined as concealing financial actions or accounts from one's partner, equivalent in betrayal to other forms of infidelity. By understanding these concepts, we guide listeners on recognizing unhealthy financial habits, addressing their root causes, and adopting open communication to foster trust and healing.
