'Who likes to pay tax? You don't, I don't,' says Lagarde

The head of the International Monetary Fund, Christine Lagarde, does not enjoy paying taxes and made that clear Wednesday at a conference in Washington. "Who likes to pay tax? You don't, I don't, nobody does," said the IMF managing director.

Christine Lagarde, scourge of tax evaders, pays no tax

As an official of an international institution, her salary of $467,940 (£298,675) a year plus $83,760 additional allowance a year is not subject to any taxes.

Heard a 66 y-o Brit resident on Corfu was strangled recently, seems he arrived back on Corfu on 26/09 and was found dead in his home on 28/09. Investigation continuing.

Firefox 41.0.1 released yesterday, Firefox users probably have it by now. No security fixes, just minor bug fixes.
