  • Badminton England Strategy 2017-2025
    So many great things have happened across English badminton in recent years. Marcus Ellis and Chris Langridge created history at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games when they won Great Britain’s first ever Men’s Doubles Medal, Chris and Gabby Adcock won the World Superseries Finals Mixed Doubles title in 2015, badminton secured its position as the nation’s most popular racket sport with almost 1m people playing every month, year on year the Yonex All England just got bigger and better with record breaking crowds attending the 107th Championships, we successfully bid for the Yonex All England to be recognised among the top 3 ‘majors’ of world badminton, our member and fan base grew to more than 150,000 people, we welcomed new commercial and broadcast partners to the organisation and we have experienced massive growth in digital engagement across the various platforms. Just some of the amazing achievements that provide the platform to deliver even greater growth and success for English badminton. Discover Badminton is a clear statement of intent to do just that. The development of the strategy involved more than 50 consultation days spanning the length and breadth of the country involving many County Badminton Associations, clubs, leagues, coaches and members. The message we heard was very clear; more badminton in schools, more support to clubs, more people playing and competing, more volunteers and increased help to the current volunteer workforce and more coaches when they are needed. We listened and we understood and the ‘asks’ of us are embedded into Discover Badminton. Discover Badminton is also a welcoming statement to anyone who wants to take part in our great sport.

  • Compendium of Federal Estate Tax and Personal W Ealth Studies
    A Comparison of Wealth Estimates for America’s Wealthiest Decedents Using Tax Data and Data from the Forbes 400 Brian Raub, Barry Johnson, and Joseph Newcomb, Statistics of Income, IRS1 Presented in “New Research on Wealth and Estate Taxation” Introduction Measuring the wealth of the Nation’s citizens has long been a topic of interest among researchers and policy planners. Unfortunately, such measurements are difficult to make because there are few sources of data on the wealth holdings of the general population, and most especially of the very rich. Two of the better-known sources of wealth statistics are the household estimates derived from the Federal Reserve Board of Governor’s Survey of Consumer Finances (SCF) (Kenneckell, 2009) and estimates of personal wealth derived from estate tax Chapter 7 — Studies Linking Income & Wealth returns, produced by the Statistics of Income Division (SOI) of the Internal Revenue Service (Raub, 2007). In addition, Forbes magazine annually has produced a list, known as the Forbes 400, that includes wealth estimates for the 400 wealthiest individuals in the U.S. While those included on the annual Forbes 400 list represent less than .0002 percent of the U.S. population, this group holds a relatively large share of the Nation’s wealth. For example, in 2007, the almost $1.6 trillion in estimated collective net worth owned by the Forbes 400 accounted for about 2.3 percent of total U.S. household net worth (Kopczuk and Saez, 2004). This article focuses on the estimates of wealth produced for the Forbes 400 and their relationship to data collected by SOI (see McCubbin, 1994, for results of an earlier pilot of this study).

  • Oscar-Winning 'Slumdog Millionaire:' a Boost for India's Global Image?
    ISAS Brief No. 98 – Date: 27 February 2009 469A Bukit Timah Road #07-01, Tower Block, Singapore 259770 Tel: 6516 6179 / 6516 4239 Fax: 6776 7505 / 6314 5447 Email: [email protected] Website: www.isas.nus.edu.sg Oscar-winning ‘Slumdog Millionaire’: A Boost for India’s Global Image? Bibek Debroy∗ Culture is difficult to define. This is more so in a large and heterogeneous country like India, where there is no common language and religion. There are sub-cultures within the country. Joseph Nye’s ‘soft power’ expression draws on a country’s cross-border cultural influences and is one enunciated with the American context in mind. Almost tautologically, soft power implies the existence of a relatively large country and the term is, therefore, now also being used for China and India. In the Indian case, most instances of practice of soft power are linked to language and literature (including Indians writing in English), music, dance, cuisine, fashion, entertainment and even sport, and there is no denying that this kind of cross-border influence has been increasing over time, with some trigger provided by the diaspora. The film and television industry’s influence is no less important. In the last few years, India has produced the largest number of feature films in the world, with 1,164 films produced in 2007. The United States came second with 453, Japan third with 407 and China fourth with 402. Ticket sales are higher for Bollywood than for Hollywood, though revenue figures are much higher for the latter. Indian film production is usually equated with Hindi-language Bollywood, often described as the largest film-producing centre in the world.

GM Kjetil Lie put the Norwegians ahead with the kind of robust aggression typical of his best form on board four, and the teams traded wins on boards two and three.

  • Warren Wealth Tax Would Have Raised $114 Billion in 2020 from Nation’S 650 Billionaires Alone
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: MARCH 1, 2021 WARREN WEALTH TAX WOULD HAVE RAISED $114 BILLION IN 2020 FROM NATION’S 650 BILLIONAIRES ALONE Ten-Year Revenue Total Would Be $1.4 Trillion Even as Billionaire Wealth Continued to Grow WASHINGTON, D.C. – America’s billionaires would owe a total of about $114 billion in wealth tax for 2020 if the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act introduced today by Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) and Rep. Brendan Boyle (D-PA) had been in effect last year, based on Forbes billionaire wealth data analyzed by Americans for Tax Fairness (ATF) and the Institute for Policy Studies Project on Inequality (IPS). The ten-year revenue total would be about $1.4 trillion, and yet U.S. billionaire wealth would continue to grow. (The 10-year revenue estimate is explained below.) Billionaire wealth is top-heavy, so just the richest 15 own one-third of all the wealth and would thus be liable for about a third of the wealth tax (see table below). Under the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act, those 15 richest billionaires would have paid a total of $40 billion in wealth tax for the 2020 tax year, but their projected collective wealth would have still increased by more than half (53%), only slightly lower than their actual 58% increase in wealth without the wealth tax, since March 18, 2020, the rough beginning of the pandemic and the start date for this analysis. Full billionaire data is here. Some examples from the top of the list: Jeff Bezos would pay $5.7 billion in wealth taxes for 2020, lowering the size of his fortune from $191.2 billion to $185.5 billion, or 5%, but it still would have increased by two-thirds from March 18 to the end of the year.
