The famous songwriter Cole Porter once asked, "What Is This Thing Called Love?" His question caused author Andrew J. Salat to wonder: is the condition physical, spiritual, or, as some cynics might describe, "a temporary madness of the heart"? Salat believes Mr. Porter's question is answered quite well in Short Stories for Romantics. The story "High Heels" is a haunting tale of love found and lost, told to him by an interesting airline passenger. "Adrienne's Room" takes the reader on an unforgettable roller-coaster ride. For a more spiritual journey, "High Level Meeting" seeks to bring on second thoughts about the way we live our lives. These sixteen stories take the reader on an imaginary sojourn we all must take in order to experience true love in our lives. "Mr. Salat is a gifted storyteller with imagination and eloquent style. His stories had me turning pages to the very last." --Beverly DeGeorge, literary consultant

The Finance Bill Sub-Committee of the Economic Affairs Committee has met most years since 2003 to examine selected aspects of the year's Finance Bill or, since 2013, draft Finance Bill. The FBSC began its inquiry into the draft Finance Bill 2016 in January and chose to focus on two cross-cutting issues: the extent to which measures proposed in the draft Bill contribute to the simplification of the personal tax system; and their impact on the compliance burdens of taxpayers. In considering these two broad issues, the inquiry concentrated on three areas in the draft Bill: the clauses reforming the taxation of savings income and dividends; those providing new powers for HMRC to issue Simple Assessments of an individual's tax liability; and those establishing the Office of Tax Simplification (OTS) on a statutorybasis.
