  • How some countries have so few tax payments for companies?

    How can countries like Sweden, Georgia, Norway to collect only 4 tax payments?

    http://www.pwc.com/gx/en/paying-taxes/data-tables....

    Companies are not all alike. They have different:

    - Buildings and lands

    - Means of transport

    - Expenses and income sources

    - Fields of activity

    - Imports or exports from different countries

    - Ways of using the profit

    - Social contributions due to different people, etc..

    Are countries with the fewest tax payments in fact just countries that can afford to not give too much attention to their income taxes? http://www.scancomark.se/Companies/How-some-1.206-...

  • Can I find interviews with police about the accidents or American televisions doesn't do that?

  • Some phrase in English or other language close to "the mountains bump head to head into each other"?

    That's a strange expression used only in fairy tales, though there is a proverb used in everyday life, related to the collision of mountains:

    “S-a intalnit munte cu munte, nu se intalneste om cu om?”

    "Mountain has met mountain, man will not meet man?"

    commonly used to soothe someone who believes that you will never meet him again.

  • Some say that would change the body's normal growth; from a health perspective, is well what this child do?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a9NFGhx2jxM

    "Incredibly strong kids wow the Web, Brothers Giuliano and Claudi Stroe, ages 5 and 7, may put your workout to shame.

    They live in Galati, Romania, about three hours from Bucharest, and what one can only assume are the country's finest gyms. No matter, as the Stroe brothers know how to get work done. They'll put your morning routine to shame. They don't come more adorable than this duo, and this duo thinks your total number of chin-up repetitions is cute, at best. Prepare to be shamed by little boys.

    While you started your workout program two months ago, these guys started at two years old, and follow their father, Lulian's, weight routine for two hours each morning. The two are incredibly strong, with Giuliano holding the world record for 90-degree vertical push-ups and the human flag."

    Whether it's normal or healthy for their father to be putting them through the routines is another debate entirely, especially when he apparently admits he hopes his sons become stars.

  • It's any patient shrink around here, to read a poem and tell me few personality traits?

    What personality traits (at least one) has someone who create and like this poem:

    Near a low foothill

    At Heaven’s doorsill,

    Where the trail’s descending

    To the plain and ending,

    Here three shepherds keep

    Their three flocks of sheep,

    One, Moldavian,

    One, Transylvanian

    And one, Vrancean.

    Now, the Vrancean

    And the Transylvanian

    In their thoughts, conniving,

    Have laid plans, contriving

    At the close of day

    To ambush and slay

    The Moldavian;

    He, the wealthier one,

    Had more flocks to keep,

    Handsome, long-horned sheep,

    Horses, trained and sound,

    And the fiercest hounds.

    One small ewe-lamb, though,

    Dappled gray as tow,

    While three full days passed

    Bleated loud and fast;

    Would not touch the grass.

    ”Ewe-lamb, dapple-gray,

    Muzzled black and gray,

    While three full days passed

    You bleat loud and fast;

    Don’t you like this grass?

    Are you too sick to eat,

    Little lamb so sweet?”

    ”Oh my master dear,

    Drive the flock out near

    That field, dark to view,

    Where the grass grows new,

    Where there’s shade for you.

    ”Master, master dear,

    Call a large hound near,

    A fierce one and fearless,

    Strong, loyal and peerless.

    The Transylvanian

    And the Vrancean

    When the daylight’s through

    Mean to murder you.”

    ”Lamb, my little ewe,

    If this omen’s true,

    If I’m doomed to death

    On this tract of heath,

    Tell the Vrancean

    And Transylvanian

    To let my bones lie

    Somewhere here close by,

    By the sheepfold here

    So my flocks are near,

    Back of my hut’s grounds

    So I’ll hear my hounds.

    Tell them what I say:

    There, beside me lay

    One small pipe of beech

    With its soft, sweet speech,

    One small pipe of bone

    With its loving tone,

    One of elderwood,

    Fiery-tongued and good.

    Then the winds that blow

    Would play on them so

    All my listening sheep

    Would draw near and weep

    Tears, no blood so deep.

    How I met my death,

    Tell them not a breath;

    Say I could not tarry,

    I have gone to marry

    A princess – my bride

    Is the whole world’s pride.

    At my wedding, tell

    How a bright star fell,

    Sun and moon came down

    To hold my bridal crown,

    Firs and maple trees

    Were my guests; my priests

    Were the mountains high;

    Fiddlers, birds that fly,

    All birds of the sky;

    Torchlights, stars on high.

    But if you see there,

    Should you meet somewhere,

    My old mother, little,

    With her white wool girdle,

    Eyes with their tears flowing,

    Over the plains going,

    Asking one and all,

    Saying to them all,

    ’Who has ever known,

    Who has seen my own

    Shepherd fine to see,

    Slim as a willow tree,

    With his dear face, bright

    As the milk-foam, white,

    His small moustache, right

    As the young wheat’s ear,

    With his hair so dear,

    Like plumes of the crow

    Little eyes that glow

    Like the ripe black sloe?’

    Ewe-lamb, small and pretty,

    For her sake have pity,

    Let it just be said

    I have gone to wed

    A princess most noble

    There on Heaven’s doorsill.

    To that mother, old,

    Let it not be told

    That a star fell, bright,

    For my bridal night;

    Firs and maple trees

    Were my guests, priests

    Were the mountains high;

    Fiddlers, birds that fly,

    All birds of the sky;

    Torchlights, stars on high.

  • Example of major historical events of a nation that seems historic recurrence?

    I put here, from my country, three examples, because they are major, although in fact, generally, all kings, voivodes and our leaders were either expelled or murdered, or sold, or forced to leave.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Burebista#Death

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_the_Brave#Las...

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceausescu#Death

    I do not know too well history, but another example that comes into my mind is the beginning of two world wars seem historic recurrence for Germans.

    Probably you already know someone, who knows that, although her ​​odd behavior is due to events arising in childhood, it fails to correct it. Equally predictable can be the behavior of a nation too?

    Please, remember that the main question is referring about examples of major historical events; I can't find over the web, maybe you can put some links...

    The ideal would be a list of nations.

  • Equivalent and the possible origin of a slang expression?

    Do you know, in any language, the equivalent of Romanian expression:

    "o pula de neam prost" concerning "a (too) big dick".

    o = indefinite article

    pula = dick (penis)

    de neam prost = of bad generation (of stupid people)

    How do you think that it was developed such a bias: who has it (too) big is dumb.

  • It's possible, for you, to live together with your friend, without making any compromise?

    If you say "Yes", I will suspect that you're lying, so you better prove what you say, with many details...

    If you say "No", then what solution you can fantasize? (I dunno: separate private bathrooms, housekeepers, etc...)
