Food holdover from Taiwan’s military past popular with Chinese tourists

Posted by Donald D. Monahan at Jun 30, 2011 | No Comments »

TAIPEI, Taiwan – A Taiwanese dish that is a holdover from the country’s military past has been proving unexpectedly popular among Chinese tourists, a local tourist attraction official said Friday.

The National Center for Traditional Art, which is based in northeastern Taiwan’s Yilan County, said it had received numerous complaints from Chinese tourists over the past week since it took a local dish common among Taiwan’s military families off its menu.

Nancy Lee, the center’s PR officer, said many Chinese tourists expressed disappointment when they found that the dish — Meal for Difficult Situations — was no longer being served because the center’s caterers had terminated the contract . The simple dish of fried rice mixed with sausage, egg and soy sauce is popular among people who fled to Taiwan from mainland China following the defeat of the Nationalist forces in 1949.

Missed Buying a Car in December? No Worries

Posted by Carolyn Mack at Jun 29, 2011 | No Comments »

It is true that the deepest discounts on new cars are available in December. Shoppers who miss those end of the year sales can still find good deals on new cars throughout the year. Car prices can fluctuate based on the time of week or the time of month. If you are interested in a used car, you still have a few months before the deepest dealer discounts are available in April.

Recession Changes the Game

Not long ago, September was the ideal month to buy a new car. Manufacturers release their new models in the fall, so new car dealers need to clear out last year’s model as fast as possible to make room for new stock. The recession has shifted things a bit for car dealerships, though. New cars are still released in the fall, but dealers are not selling as many cars from the previous year as they had in the past.

NC 529 Plan Income Tax Deduction Continues

Posted by Agnes Alexander at Jun 29, 2011 | No Comments »

The North Carolina General Assembly recently passed legislation that preserves the deduction on NC 529 College Savings Plan contributions for all North Carolina taxpayers, regardless of income. The adjusted gross income limitations that were scheduled to return in 2012 on the state income tax deduction for the NC 529 Plan have been eliminated.

The maximum annual contribution deductible from NC taxable income remains the same at $2,500 (individual) or $5,000 (married, filing jointly).  529 Plans offer tax-free growth when used for qualified educational expenses, and are protected from creditors up to $25,000 for each plan.

Lloyds Banking Group to cut 15,000 middle managers in effort to save £1.5bn

Posted by Donald D. Monahan at Jun 29, 2011 | No Comments »

By Harry Wilson, and Jamie Dunkley

8:07AM BST 30 Jun 2011

Antonio Horta-Osorio, who took over as chief executive in March, announced the cuts today as part of strategic review that he expects to lead to £1.5bn of annual cost savings by the end of 2014.

Mr Horta-Osorio said the job losses would involve staff reductions across the bank’s business and a large-scale cull of its middle management as well as a withdrawal from several of its international businesses.

“We have to do this because this bank is losing money on an after-tax basis. We have to get this bank back on its feet,” said Mr Horta-Osorio. “I’m sure our staff are going to see we have a clear strategy for the future.”

The cuts are part of a wider review of Lloyds operations that will see the bank invest £500m of its annual cost savings in initiatives such as revitalising its Halifax brand and building up the wealth management business.

South African Airways cuts airfares to attract more tourists to Tanzania

Posted by Donald D. Monahan at Jun 28, 2011 | No Comments »

TANZANIA (eTN) – In a friendly gesture to mark fifty years of Tanzania’s independence from Britain, South African Airways has announced to cut down airfare for travelers from the United States to Tanzania.

Sources from the airline’s management said travelers and tourists flying between New York (US) and Dar es Salaam (Tanzania) will have to pay discounted and reduced airfares.

Special airfares will be applicable between August and mid-December this year, a period that covers three months in which Tanzania will be celebrating 50 years of self-rule from British colonial rule.

Truman said that South African Airways (SAA) recognized that there was high demand among travelers flying to and from Tanzania during the peak months before this African destination mark its 50 years of independence amid activities, which will attract an inflow of people from different nationalities.

In line with reduced airfare, SAA said it will make a same-day connection from JFK International Airport in New York to Dar es Salaam through its hub in Johannesburg, South Africa, hoping to encourage more tourists to experience Tanzania especially at such a festive and historic time.
