"Walked up the hill too soon." This was the terse rebuke from a Fianna Fáil official after the Sunday Independent revealed last month that homeowners were in line to earn up to €14,000 tax-free by renting out newly built modular units in their back gardens.

He has brought up tariffs for the movie and television industry many times, and I've hopefully talked to him the way out of them. Healthy incentive programs attract a lot of production, and you've seen a lot of them move from California to Georgia to New Jersey. Having the incentives versus tariffs is much better.

Filing a return can be time-consuming and complicated. The possibility of an audit feels intimidating. And the cost can be high. Each year, Americans collectively work nearly four months just to cover their combined federal, state and local taxes. If you earn $100,000 a year, that can add up to more than $1 million over the course of your career - money that could otherwise be invested in your business or your family.

The four members of ABBA - who are, yes, still alive and in their 70s - apparently spent years developing their holograms along with a team of producers to craft the 100-minute performance.

PARK CITY, UTAH - San Francisco may be one of the most cinematic cities in the world, but it isn't necessarily the easiest place to film a movie. Or is it? This year's Sundance Film Festival saw two breakout hits that filmed in the city: "Josephine," which was filmed fully in SF, and "The Invite," which spent two days in the city on location. Along with the recent filming of "Artificial" and 2024's "Man on the Inside," there's a growing mound of evidence that despite popular belief, San Francisco can be a welcome place for filmmakers.

"My report provides a clear path, with a range of new initiatives that cover everything from new funding models to fundamental systems reform, that will enable ACE to strengthen its key, positive role in sustaining a world-class creative sector for the future," Hodge says in a statement.

Notably, the research reveals that much of the goodwill that had been granted to the new Government early in its tenure has ebbed away.

Two East Bay cities dodged a bullet when they lost to Pacific Fusion's selection of Albuquerque for its $1 billion fusion site. All three cities offered excessive tax breaks, land and other perks for an enterprise that may never be operational, let alone profitable. Recent reports of fusion research labs achieving just a few moments of more energy created than the energy expended to spark fusion indicate that productive sustainability is decades away.
