Playing War helps children understand the fine line between "playing" and "real" war
Members of Veterans For Peace, Linus Pauling Chapter recently tabled at the 2013 Interfaith Peace Walk and Fair in McMinnville, Oregon, hosted by the Interfaith Advocates for Peace with Justice (Yamhill County.) Leah Bolger also presented a talk on Drones and the Drones Quilt Project.
Among the other tablers was Kathy Beckwith, author of Playing War (illustrated by Lea Lyon). Kathy, according to the book jacket, "trains student mediators, volunteers as a mediation coach at schools, and works as a mediator in her community." She was kind enough to inscribe a copy of her book for us and the Chapter is donating it to the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library. It should be available for checkout shortly.
Again, from the book jacket:
While Playing War is a book about understanding what war can be like for families, and that war is not a game, this is also a sensitive story about the power of friendship and how children can learn from one another.
Here's more info on this book at Powell's Books in Portland.
But, if you decide to order the book, please use this link from VFP national, so VFP gets a small cut on the sale.

#UnbreakableMx una extrema y divertida experiencia!
Después de un largo año de esperar para su regreso, UNBREAKABLE volvió al D.F. el pasado 25 y 26 de Abril para regalarnos adrenalina y demostrarnos que no hay mejor y más desafiante competencia, que la que podemos tener con nosotros mismos.
En esta nueva edición la experiencia de sortear obstáculos a campo traviesa, subir cuerdas, caer en una alberca de agua helada y el rush de manejar una camioneta 4×4, se volvió a combinar con esos factores que no pueden faltar y le dan el toque especial como esas risas, raspones, lesiones, gritos de apoyo, lodo (mucho lodo) y un hospitality con toda la #ActitudALOHA con line up de DJ y la refrescante presencia de HEINEKEN.
Obvio no podíamos faltar, después de pasarla de lo mejor en su versión de Guadalajara, nos lanzamos con nuestro #ALOHARunningTeam, quienes después de semanas de preparación, no sólo rompieron sus propios límites, sino que se la pasaron de lo más divertidos en cada uno de los obstáculos y retos que se les presentaron. Las risas y comentarios atinados los mantuvo con la mejor actitud desde su salida hasta el último esfuerzo que hicieron para llegar a la meta!
Como dicen que una imagen vale más que mil palabras, les compartimos algunos momentos que captamos para que chequen ustedes mismos, como estuvo esta extrema y divertida experiencia; por el momento por acá ya estamos esperamos noticias para una próxima edición y ustedes?

Heyn Galloper
A copy of a Heyn horse. This piece came with different base configurations, most commonly with an oval brass
base though other combinations (such as a rocking-horse base) were also produced. The piece is about 7-8" to the top
of the pole. There is usually no coin set into the bases of these. The music box (if it has one) almost always plays "The
Carousel Waltz". The average price of this piece when new was $40-$65.

Public Plan Investments in Hedge Funds
Who's the 'client'?
Before you accept a public pension plan into your fund, make sure that there is no provision in the statute under which the plan was created that imposes a 'fiduciary duty' on anyone who advises the plan regarding its investments.
If there is such a provision, you must make certain that the trustees of the plan independently decide to invest in your fund and that you are not legally regarded as the maker of that investment decision for the plan.
You must also satisfy yourself that a 'fiduciary duty' is not statutorily imposed upon you in your capacity as the manager of a fund in which the plan has invested. If that were the case, you would find yourself in the untenable legal position of having to know the plan's overall financial and investment situation and having to take it into account whenever you make an investment decision for the fund. You could not, for example, buy a security for the fund in which the plan had a concentrated position in an unrelated account. Nevertheless, that is exactly what owing a 'fiduciary duty' to a client would require of you under current law.
If a fund manager were deemed to owe such a 'fiduciary duty' to a public pension plan in its fund, not only would its risk of legal liability to that client increase appreciably, but the issue and effect of that liability would most likely be litigated in the public plan's backyard and under its state law.

Deciding to quit smoking is a good choice for your health but knowing where to begin can be challenging. There are several different aids on the market to help you stop, each one differs in its effectiveness. Ultimately, it comes down to willpower and a drive to succeed. But there are some effective ways to help you get started.
Set a Date
Preparation is very important when trying to quit, so you should set a date and stick to it. Give yourself some time to prepare for the change, don't choose tomorrow or 2 days from now, it is too soon and you won't have enough time to adapt.
There are 2 main ways to stop smoking, you either quit abruptly (cold turkey) or you gradually wean yourself off. Both methods work, so choose whichever one works for you. You can wait for your quit date and completely stop, or you can reduce the amount incrementally and then quit altogether on your set date.
Here are some tips to help you prepare for the day you'll finally break the habit.
- Tell everyone what day you have set, so they understand your plan of action.
- Get rid of any paraphernalia such as ashtrays or cigarette packets.
- Join a support group or even speak to family members or friends who have successfully quit.
- Ask other people you know to not smoke near you.
E Cigarettes
These devices aren't really being put on sale to help people stop smoking but rather as a healthier alternative to cigarettes. But, they are being used as a support mechanism for a number of reasons. One being that they enable you to control the amount of nicotine you load into a cartridge, this means they allow people who are trying to quit slowly wean themselves off the compound. They don't have to go cold turkey, they can gradually reduce the amount of nicotine in their e cigs.
Recent studies suggest that e cigarettes help with smoking cessation, individuals who use them on a regular basis are more likely to quit permanently in comparison to people who go cold turkey or use other methods to stop. You can buy an e cig in numerous online stores and they are more cost efficient than traditional cigarettes.
Behavioural Therapy
The most difficult thing to break is your dependence on nicotine, you need to change your behavioural patterns, so you take more control over your life. There are several counselling services you can attend and also self-help groups. It is beneficial to speak to an expert on behavioural therapy and to others who have begun the same journey as you. Communicating with people who have already successfully stopped smoking can be advantageous.
Trying to quit smoking is challenging, its highly addictive and many people tend to relapse even after long periods without a cigarette. But there are many effective ways to stop including using e cigs and behavioural therapy. Quitting doesn't come easy, it takes time, dedication and strong willpower to break your dependence.

Brett Owens is a leading on income investing; the editor of the industry-leading Contrarian Outlook ...
We're Getting a Call from Europe
06/10/2013 9:45 am EST
Focus: STOCKS
Europe has a ways to go to catch up with the US, but new legislative proposals may boost its telecom industry, says David Dittman of Utility Forecaster.
The enormous competitive advantages enjoyed by AT&T (T) and Verizon Communications (VZ) in the US telecommunications market result from their ability to out-invest smaller rivals.
Asian telecoms such as China Mobile (CHL) are also investing heavily in network technology. China is the world's biggest mobile market, with 1.1 billion subscribers.
But there's one region that stands out for its lack of network investment growth, on top of its continuing economic problems: Europe.
AT&T and Verizon spent about $35.7 billion combined on their wireless and wireline networks in 2012—approximately 54% of the total US network investment.
The Telecommunications Industry Association's (TIA) 2013 ICT Market Review & Forecast reported that US wireless penetration hit 102.5% of the adult population in 2012, surpassing 100% for the first time. Wireless carriers are on track to add 40.3 million subscribers over the next four years, for a penetration rate of 111.3% by 2016.
China's three mobile operators plan to spend a combined $56 billion in 2013 on network infrastructure, and $6.75 billion on 200,000 4G base stations to provide services for their 710 million customers.
Europe is lagging, held back by a still-sluggish economy, as well as a burdensome bureaucracy. While mobile and Internet service is relatively inexpensive and widespread, current infrastructure is increasingly challenged to support new offerings such as video and cloud computing. The Continent trails the US and Asia in the adoption of 4G and fiber-optic technology.
Neelie Kroes, the European Union commissioner running the digital technology portfolio, supports a proposed €50 billion ($68 billion) "Connecting Europe Facility" program for cross-border infrastructure projects. €9.2 billion would support expanded broadband and digital networks. Kroes also favors establishing a single telecom market for Europe.
It's this type of landscape that's allowed AT&T and Verizon to establish fast and reliable service in the US. And their ability to attract and keep valuable postpaid subscribers supports long-term dividend sustainability and growth.
Verizon, in particular, has been a star, with a total return since the March 2009 low for global equities of 160%-plus. It's also been an outperformer over the trailing 12 months, with a total return of 32.7%. AT&T is also up more than 16% over the past year, and 111% since March 6, 2009.
There's hope that Deutsche Telekom's (DTEGY) €30 billion, three-year investment plan announced in December 2012 will help lead a return to investment in the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region.
Deutsche Telekom has enjoyed a solid run over the past year, posting a total return in US dollar terms of 26.9%. But the German giant's current dividend rate is in doubt even after a December 2012 cut, as it continues to try to get out of its T-Mobile USA venture.
Telecom Italia (TI) and France Telecom (FTE) are both in the red over the trailing 12 months. However, Telefonica (TEF), for its part, is actively expanding its presence in South America. The company temporarily eliminated its dividend in 2012, but is on track to resume its payout later this year.
Telefonica reported encouraging results for the first quarter of 2013, as revenue contraction stabilized in its home market and organic growth in South America was 6.8%. Telefonica has a ways to go, but it is a good way to play a rebound in Europe.

At HomeHero, our missions is to promote health and wellness in the home through the union of smart technology and human compassion. Our team of highly-qualified Heroes provide a wide variety of non-medical services, including Alzheimer's and dementia care, transportation, personal care, shopping, meal prep and companionship. We cover more than 2,000 square miles in California (Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego and San Francisco Bay Area).
To become a Hero, caregivers are put through a rigorous screening process that includes an entrance exam, reference check, background check and interviews (both over the phone and in-person). Learn more about our requirements to be a Hero.
Caregiving has existed for thousands of years, but our use of technology makes HomeHero the first-of-its-kind in several respects:
From the beginning, we've featured full profiles of every caregiver on our platform, including HD video introductions, self-summaries, and references from past clients/employers.
• We use a one-of-a-kind matching algorithm to scour our database of Heroes, finding you the best matches in your area in 10 minutes or less.
• HomeHero's iPhone App gives families real-time mobile connectivity with the care in their home, helping them stay up-to-date on the health status of their loved ones with real-time access to daily GPS check-ins, shift verification, photos, videos and more.
• Our service has been designed and reviewed by medical professionals, including our Chief Medical and Nursing Officers.
• Our use of automated digital payments means we cut out much of the wasteful bureaucracy that plagues the traditional home care agency. This means we can pay our Heroes above-average wages and charge families below-average rates.
• We offer a $4 million liability insurance policy.
We have a team of backup Heroes standing by 24/7 in the event of cancellations, and our friendly client support staff and case managers are available day and night.
Since 2013 our Heroes have provided over 1 million hours of care to seniors. If you would like to learn more, call us at 310-907-5302 or visit our care finder page.

The light fitting in my room exploded today (internally, so no exciting glass showers for me), and since the millions of tea lights dotted everywhere aren't bright enough to read by, I'm going to start a new blog series. Ooh, fancy!
This series will document my move to London and all the trials and tribulations inherent in finding your place in a big city. I also want it to be somewhat collaborative, so if you have any topics you'd like covered or burning questions answered, then please leave a comment (even if it's just to moan with me about the tube being delayed… again!).

Does anyone have a design or know how to make lobster pots? Answered
trying to catch a few lobsters and cant find a design on the internet.
Not very helpful.
. There are several good links there plus a link to lobster pot design at the bottom of the page.
It's one of those "traditional" crafts... nobody I know of who makes them works from a pattern (of course some have jigs and guides for certain parts). They all learned to do it from someone else and simply repeat the process over and over. If you look very carefully at the lobster pots in a specific region, you might notice that they vary slightly in design and materials, depending on who built them and who they learned it from. For example, in one community nearby everyone has welded steel lobster traps that are covered in netting and in another community that's a little out of the way, everyone uses lobster traps that are made of bent twigs and chainsaw-cut planks. Unfortunatly, I don't have a pattern or plan for it as I've been looking for one myself, but I'll make a suggestion. Go to someone who is using one and ask to buy one or ask them to show you how to make it. You never know, maybe you'll be lucky.

From the beginning to the end of working with a client, we try to bring high energy to the evaluation process, making it something the client looks forward to instead of dreads. I remember a client I worked with over a decade ago…on her first day at her new job, she was given my business card and told to call me because I could help her. We scheduled a day for me to come up and work together so evaluation would be part of the way they did business from the very beginning. She was so nervous about an EVALUATOR (scary, evil, mean people that they are!) was coming, that she made herself sick the night before my visit. After she spent the day with me, she realized I wasn't scary at all, she had actually learned some things, and she was looking forward to our next time together. Now that's a successful visit in my book!
While we consciously work to make evaluation fun and exciting, here are some simple ways that we have done that…
We are not afraid to show our enthusiasm for evaluation and data! If you've ever been at a meeting, small or large (yes, even a room with hundreds of people in it), with me where they talk about evaluation or data, you'll hear a loud "WOO HOO!" when evaluation or data is mentioned. It's usually the point in the presentation that eyes have glazed over because most people are on overload by the time the evaluation conversation comes around, so I yell with excitement to help remind people that evaluation can be exciting (and, sometimes, to wake people up). You never know when that enthusiasm will result in someone (thanks, Chris Lysy) drawing a cartoon inspired by you!
We have a sense of humor in whatever we're doing! You've heard a little about Camp iEval in a previous post. That's a retreat we do several times a year with 21st Century Community Learning Centers program directors, where we come together and review data and evaluation findings, conduct professional development around hot topics that have either emerged from the data or been requested by sites, and share and learn across programs. We also have a lot of fun while doing it. We've given out silly awards (like "Miss Direction" and "Pressure Cooker") and done crazy team building activities (like building bridges with toothpicks and marshmallows), all interspersed with real learning and meaningful personal growth. I like to give a small gift to the project directors each year, and one year we gave them each a blanket with iEval on it…poking fun at ourselves because the temperature in the rooms where we hold Camp iEval is often pretty chilly…you just have to roll with it.
We use resources we can find and put our own goofy twists on them! We also previously mentioned Roger Miranda's children's book called Eva the Evaluator. If you haven't purchased that book, it's wonderful! We've given it out to many clients. It's a fun way to explain what an evaluator does…and my favorite explanation is SUPERHERO! We took it one step further, with Roger's approval, and made his book into a five-minute video that we showed at several trainings we have done. By putting ourselves out there, dressy in silly costumes and trying to act, it helped humanize us with current and potential clients, so people are not as fearful of evaluation as they may have previously been. Kelley and I even performed a live interpretation of the book, but that was a one-time only show!
DR. TACKETT'S USEFUL TIP: Evaluators are people too. You do not have to be stuffy or flaunt advanced degrees around in order for clients to take your work seriously. In fact, if you are more approachable, your clients are more likely to relate to you on a personal level and work with you to make better use of evaluation findings!

The recent roadside inspection blitz known as Roadcheck shows that commercial trucks and operators continue to hold on to safety gains made in the past few years.
Inspectors in the U.S. and Canada conducted 66,853 inspections from June 8 to 10 at 2,500 locations as part of the Roadcheck blitz. The annual event is a partnership of the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance, law enforcement and federal agencies in North America. Mexico reportedly conducted nearly 3,900 inspections but had no other data available as of press time.
During the event, U.S. inspectors placed just 4.4 percent of U.S. truck drivers out of service. The 95.6 percent pass rate matches the percentages from Roadcheck events in 2010 and 2009.
Inspectors put 19.4 percent of commercial trucks OOS compared to 20 percent during the past two Roadcheck events.
Inspectors continue to cite brakes and driver logbook violations as the top reasons for OOS orders in the respective categories.
On the hazmat side, U.S. inspectors placed 2.3 percent of drivers and 17.9 percent of vehicles out of service. Last year, 2.7 percent of hazmat drivers and 16.3 of vehicles were put OOS.
Notably, the U.S. Roadcheck event saw 10 percent fewer inspections this year than last year, with 59,019 compared to 65,327 in 2010.
In Canada, the number of inspections increased this year to 7,834 compared with 7,065 inspections in 2010.
Canadian inspections netted OOS rates of 2.9 percent for truck drivers and 18.6 percent for trucks. While the number of drivers placed OOS was slightly higher this year compared to 2.7 percent in 2010, the number of trucks put out of service was down from a 20.3 percent OOS rate in the 2010 Roadcheck.
CVSA, law enforcement and federal agencies also inspected the second highest number of commercial buses, 1,217, in the 20-year history of Roadcheck. Of this number, 8.7 percent of drivers and 18.7 percent of vehicles were put out of service.

Purpose :
The XEN45 Gel Stent has been evaluated in patients with open angle glaucoma. In this report, we sought to evaluate the use of this device in patients with primary angle closure glaucoma (PACG). Based upon its small size, soft polymer composition, and anterior chamber placement, there is reason to believe it might be useful as a PACG therapeutic option.
Methods :
This was a retrospective review of XEN surgical experience between February 2014 and May 2016 of 3 ophthalmologists in South America. Preoperative evaluations, including measurement of intraocular pressure (IOP) and enumeration of medications was performed. Post-operative visits were consistent with standard of care, and typically included 1 day, 1 and 2 weeks, 1, 2, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months. Presented are data available as of early November 2016.
Results :
Implanted were 15 eyes of 13 patients, and with the exception of 1 XEN solo procedure, the majority were considered mixed mechanism glaucoma due to XEN placement immediately after cataract extraction in PACG patients. The population consisted of Hispanic females with a mean age of 62.8 ± 10.6 years (range 43 - 80). All received pre-operative mitomycin-c and post-operative dexamethasone.From a mean pre-operative medicated IOP of 19.5 ± 2.9 mmHg, mean IOP at the first post-operative day decreased to 10.8 ± 6.1 (-8.7 mmHg) and 11.2 ± 3.5 at 1 week (-8.5 mm Hg). Mean IOP remained decreased, with the 8 eyes with data at 12 months having a mean IOP of 13.0 ± 2.6 (-6.5 mmHg). The proportion of the 15 eyes experiencing a decrease in IOP of 20% or more was 100% (8/8) at Month 12. The mean number of medications decreased from 3.3 ± 1.2 pre-operatively to 0.9 ± 1.1 at 12 months. Only one patient was considered an efficacy failure (Month 12), requiring an additional glaucoma surgical intervention.There were 3 reports of needling procedures performed in 2 eyes. Transient post-operative hyphema (microscopic, 1 eye; Grade I, 2 eyes) was the most common post-operative complication, followed by cystoid macular edema (1 eye post combined surgery).
Conclusions :
In this retrospective evaluation of patients with PACG, the XEN gel stent was safe and effective in lowering the IOP ≥20% in the majority of patients at 12 months and medication use from baseline was reduced by approximately two-thirds. Further clinical studies are indicated to evaluate the safety and efficacy of the XEN gel stent in managing patients with PACG.
This is an abstract that was submitted for the 2017 ARVO Annual Meeting, held in Baltimore, MD, May 7-11, 2017.

Under IRS Investigation – Offshore Accounts or Assets | Foreign Income
Unfortunately, oftentimes when the IRS is pursuing a criminal investigation against an individual, they may be very far into the investigation before the person has any idea they are being investigated.
This is not intended to scare you, but rather to ensure you understand what some of the ramifications (and signs) may be that you become the subject of an IRS criminal investigation.
IRS Focuses on Offshore Money
Since the IRS is understaffed and under-budgeted, they need to focus their efforts in places where they can get the best bang for the buck — and typically, this means offshore enforcement.
Offshore tax scams, tax schemes, and tax havens have been a mainstay to the IRS dirty dozen list. In addition, over the last 10 years there has been numerous programs developed to pursue enforcement against foreign financial institutions and facilitators offshore who have violated US Tax Law.
When it comes to FATCA (Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act), more than 110 countries and 300,000 foreign financial institutions have already agreed to comply with the U.S. FATCA Law. Moreover, as recently released by the national taxpayer Advocate in January of 2018, penalties issued for unreported foreign corporations, partnerships and trusts have skyrocketed — while the percentage of individuals having the penalties abated (reduced) has decreased (in other words, the penalties are sticking more and being waived less)
International Tax Enforcement Group
The IRS is so serious about offshore enforcement, that the recently enacted their own International Tax Enforcement Group at the end of 2017 which is designed exclusively to focus on developing and pursuing international tax investigations.
Unlike years past, the IRS has a broad range of resources to pull information regarding offshore investments, foreign bank accounts, investment accounts, etc.. Moreover, due to increase cooperation of many of these foreign countries and financial institutions under FATCA, it is becoming much easier for the IRS to obtain information — without having to expend additional resources to do so.
IRS Audit or Examination
Is important to note that there is a distinction between an IRS audit/examination in a criminal investigation. Typically, an IRS audit or examination is nothing major. Aside from an eggshell audit or reverse eggshell audit, an IRS audit is just the IRS' way of evaluating your tax situation to determine if everything you did was in compliance.
It could be a simple as you forgot to report one of your 1099s, or took a legal, but strong tax position and now the IRS wants to take you to task – usually nothing major to worry about.
IRS Criminal Investigation
An IRS criminal investigation is entirely different. The IRS does not engage in nearly as many IRS criminal investigations as it does regular audits or examinations. In other words, once a person is being criminally investigated by the IRS, it means the IRS believes it has some teeth on the issue involving the person being investigated and something illegal. And, in recent years, these criminal investigations have focused on Offshore or Foreign Income and Accounts (aka Money Abroad, Money Overseas, etc.)
That is not say just because you are under an IRS criminal investigation involving offshore or foreign money, that the IRS is going to pursue criminal charges. It just means you need to be very careful.
How Do You Know You Are Being Investigated?
Sometimes the IRS was to keep the investigation quiet, so they arevery careful in sending subpoenas and summons to various individuals, or institutions without providing any other investigation to let you that you are under investigation.
Conversely, sometimes the IRS want you to be aware that you are under investigation to track your movements and see how you respond (aka so the IRS can follow you, follow the money)
IRS Increases Offshore Investigations
It is becoming more and more clear that the IRS, Department of Justice and the U.S. Government as a whole have made Federal Tax Crimes involving Tax Evasion and Tax Fraud that involve Foreign Income and Offshore Accounts a key enforcement priority.
Typical IRS Criminal Tax Investigations include:
- Offshore Tax Evasion
- Offshore Tax Fraud
- Offshore Money Laundering
- Offshore Structuring
If you committed one of these types of Offshore Tax Crimes and are audited by the IRS, you have to be very careful. That is because you may not know the extent of the information the IRS already has against you, which may lead to a referral to the Criminal Investigation Division (CID) of the IRS.
Moreover, when an IRS Audit ends and depending on the strategies or tactics used by the specific agent who examined you,an IRS Investigation or inquiry by the IRS Fraud Division may start before you even know it.
The following is a brief summary of the common key tactics the IRS may use in trying to build a case against you, and/or moving your civil audit to a criminal investigation.
Contacting Your Bank Manager
It is safe to say the IRS would have no legitimate reason for speaking with the manager at the bank that you currently use, unless the IRS is trying to build a case against you.
Otherwise, why would the Internal Revenue Service take the time to go visit your bank manager? Oftentimes, when the IRS agent visits your bank manager, it is to begin comprehensive research on issues such as transfers, moving money offshore, and other matters related to your bank account.
They may want to know how often you come to the bank, and how often you request cash as opposed to other transfers. They may also want to know if there any other non-primary individuals on the account, accessing your information and if there are other accounts that the IRS may not know about yet.
Showing up at Your Home, Unannounced
When a person is not cooperating with the IRS, or consistently avoids appearing before the IRS, the IRS can get frustrated. One way the IRS relieves its frustration is by visiting by a person's residence to try to put pressure on them.
This can be done for two main reasons: The first reason is to put some pressure on the individual to let them know that the IRS is aware of where person lives and that the situation is not going away so quickly. Second, is so the IRS can monitor how the person reacts after the IRS appears at their home. For example, as a result of the IRS visiting their home unannounced, in a person begins making significant transitions or transfers of money from one location or account to another – it may help the IRS pursue a criminal investigation.
Showing up at your Employment or Place of Business
This is a little more intense, and is usually not protocol unless a person owns their own business. We have had many clients tell us, in the pre-criminal investigation phase that the IRS showed up at their place of business to ask themselves – and other employees – various questions.
Of course, other individuals at the place of employment not required to speak to the IRS if they are not under subpoena or summons. Nevertheless, oftentimes people are so scared that when the IRS approaches, that they feel like they have to answer the question — and do. The employees mistakenly believe that by simply answering the questions it will make it go away – usually, the reverse happens and it just gives the IRS more ammunition to go after you.
Sudden Stopping of Communication From the IRS
If you are ever in an audit and the audit ends, but you are unable to obtain a closing letter or any other documentation from the IRS it may be cause for concern. That is because when a civil audit is stopped either abruptly (or with a little more tact), before it seems like the audit is complete, it is because the IRS agent believes there is a criminal issues
In a civil situation, the IRS is absolutely prohibited from asking further questions. That is because in a criminal setting, a person has a right against self-incrimination. A civil audit is not a criminal investigation, and therefore the agent does not have the right to ask criminal type questions.
Interviewing your CPA
If the IRS believes the CPA has information regarding a potential criminal tax matter, the IRS will send them a summons and bring their own "court reporter" with them to a question-and-answer session.
While the CPA has the right to counsel, it is important to understand that if the IRS is taking these types of actions against people on your behalf, then chances are the IRS is at least trying to put together all the evidence he can to determine whether there may be a criminal issue at play.
Danger of Non-Compliance
When a person receives an audit notice, they are not required to appear at the audit. In other words, Counsel may represent them at the audit. Oftentimes, this may be a good idea but it is important to be using counsel who fully understands the complexities of not bringing the client to the audit, but still providing sufficient information to the auditor to appease the auditor.
Oftentimes, the IRS agent wants to see the individual in-person. This does not mean the person should appear, but counsel should at least have the following in preparation for the hearing:
- A Full understanding of the case
- A Knowledge of the underlying facts
- All the necessary documentation
- A multi-step plan to facilitate compliance without the client getting in harms way
Avoid these Issues with IRS Offshore Disclosure
If you have come to the realization that you have undisclosed unreported foreign accounts-either because you acted willfully or non-willfully, there are options available to you to get into compliance.
Some people will believe that they would just wait until they are contacted by the IRS before making any representation to the IRS regarding the foreign accounts. This is a bad idea for many reasons, with the primary reason being following: if you wait until the IRS contacts you regarding undisclosed foreign accounts you will be on defense.
Sure, you know you are non-willful, but why would the IRS agent believe you or even if they do, they will take you to task typically require much more paperwork than would otherwise be required if you made a proactive representation to the IRS.
Moreover, the penalties may be a lot worse in an audit then an offshore disclosure situation.
If you are found to be willful and intentionally misrepresented your case to the IRS, you may be subject to extremely high fines and penalties beyond what you may have already paid.
The following is a summary of penalties as published by the IRS on their own website:
A penalty for failing to file FBARs. United States citizens, residents and certain other persons must annually report their direct or indirect financial interest in, or signature authority (or other authority that is comparable to signature authority) over, a financial account that is maintained with a financial institution located in a foreign country if, for any calendar year, the aggregate value of all foreign financial accounts exceeded $10,000 at any time during the year. The civil penalty for willfully failing to file an FBAR can be as high as the greater of $100,000 or 50 percent of the total balance of the foreign financial account per violation.

Underpayment & Fraud Penalties
Fraud penalties imposed under IRC §§ 6651(f) or 6663. Where an underpayment of tax, or a failure to file a tax return, is due to fraud, the taxpayer is liable for penalties that, although calculated differently, essentially amount to 75 percent of the unpaid tax.
A penalty for failing to file a tax return imposed under IRC § 6651(a)(1). Generally, taxpayers are required to file income tax returns. If a taxpayer fails to do so, a penalty of 5 percent of the balance due, plus an additional 5 percent for each month or fraction thereof during which the failure continues may be imposed. The penalty shall not exceed 25 percent.
A penalty for failing to pay the amount of tax shown on the return under IRC § 6651(a)(2). If a taxpayer fails to pay the amount of tax shown on the return, he or she may be liable for a penalty of .5 percent of the amount of tax shown on the return, plus an additional .5 percent for each additional month or fraction thereof that the amount remains unpaid, not exceeding 25 percent.
An accuracy-related penalty on underpayments imposed under IRC § 6662. Depending upon which component of the accuracy-related penalty is applicable, a taxpayer may be liable for a 20 percent or 40 percent penalty.
Even Criminal Charges are Possible…
Possible criminal charges related to tax matters include tax evasion (IRC § 7201), filing a false return (IRC § 7206(1)) and failure to file an income tax return (IRC § 7203). Willfully failing to file an FBAR and willfully filing a false FBAR are both violations that are subject to criminal penalties under 31 U.S.C. § 5322. Additional possible criminal charges include conspiracy to defraud the government with respect to claims (18 U.S.C. § 286) and conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States (18 U.S.C. § 371).
A person convicted of tax evasion is subject to a prison term of up to five years and a fine of up to $250,000. Filing a false return subjects a person to a prison term of up to three years and a fine of up to $250,000. A person who fails to file a tax return is subject to a prison term of up to one year and a fine of up to $100,000. Failing to file an FBAR subjects a person to a prison term of up to ten years and criminal penalties of up to $500,000. A person convicted of conspiracy to defraud the government with respect to claims is subject to a prison term of up to not more than 10 years or a fine of up to $250,000. A person convicted of conspiracy to commit offense or to defraud the United States is subject to a prison term of not more than five years and a fine of up to $250,000.

Following layoffs and executive shuffles, Intel reported a third quarter profit Tuesday of $1.3 billion, beating analysts' estimates, but still falling far short of its results last year.
The company reported revenue of $8.7 billion, thanks in large part to the sale of six million of its new Core Microarchitecture chips for notebook PCs and servers. That generated earnings of $0.22 per share, stronger than the prediction of $0.18 per share earnings on revenue of $8.62 billion, according to analysts polled by Thomson Financial.
The numbers were down 35 per cent compared to Intel's profit in the third quarter of 2005, and down 12 per cent compared to past revenue. In the same quarter last year, Intel earned $0.32 per share on revenue of $9.96 billion.
Intel CEO Paul Otellini admitted in April that the company would miss its annual earnings target as it lost market share to rival AMD while worldwide PC growth slowed.
Since then, he laid off 10,500 people in September, shrinking the company by 10 per cent in the culmination of a six-month reorganisation that included an executive shuffle, the dismissal of 1,000 middle managers, and the sale of two business units.
He also accelerated the launch of the Core 2 Duo family of chips, as well as the 'Tulsa' and 'Montecito' Itanium server chips. He also pulled the launch date for the earliest quad-core chips into November instead of the first quarter of 2007.

I remember when Project Chanology got started on YouTube in January 2008. An online group of hackers decided to have some fun at the expense of the Church of Scientology. In the beginning, it consisted of DDOS attacks against their assorted websites, prank phone calls, prank faxes and other things.
At first, I thought that these kids were in way over their heads. After all, the Church of Scientology had made a science out of destroying their enemies and had most of the media cowed. You couldn't say a negative word about the Church in any form of media without receiving what the Church used to refer to as "Fair Game", which included harassment, legal threats, lawsuits, picketing your home or place of business, etc. Peoples' lives and careers have been ruined after they decided to take-on the Church of Scientology and the Church seemed very smug with itself.
I believed that a couple of things would happen:
- the Church would find and Fair Game a bunch of these kids, which would result in their lives being ruined and the whole group getting scared-off; and/or
- the group, called "Anonymous" would get bored, declare victory and stop.
At first, the Church tried to Fair Game their way out of it by claiming persecution and making unfounded accusations of terrorism and threats. Most of the media is well-aware of Scientology's history of bullying tactics and few tears were shed for them, if any. A few of Anonymous were located and some faced legal action for their actions or the actions they were accused of by the Church. Some, in fact, did get scared-off. But, the majority stayed with it and more joined their ranks as Anonymous dropped the DDOS and other illegal actions in favor of street protesting. Fair Game worked, but not as well as the Church had hoped. For the most part, they seem to have abandoned Fair Game, as it only made them look worse than they already did.
In fact, Anonymous won the Public Relations war early on, as few people felt sympathy for Scientology, especially when they learned of the history of Fair Game, as well as other abuses committed either by the Church or its members. While people were quick to condemn DDOSing, they developed a respect for the sheer gutsiness of Anonymous for taking-on such a powerful corporation. Every action taken by the Church against Anonymous was quickly publicized on the Internet and public sympathy for the Church seemed to be nonexistant.
In fact, the media seemed to find its testicles and media personalities in broadcast media and print began to badmouth the Church, either criticizing it or simply making fun of it. It was as if the media had awakened to find itself suddenly aware of the sheer nuttiness of Scientology and how abusive much of its behavior had been in the past. Even counter-move the Church took against Anonymous only seemed to make their situation worse, while people cheered Anonymous as they picketed outside of Scientology establishments.
Another series of events began to take place. People who had either left the Church in the past or had been victimized in some way began to organize themselves via the Internet. Prior to Anonymous, this did not occur with much frequency. However, after Project Chanology got started, it began slowly and picked-up speed. Famous people like Jason Beghe left the Church and made public statements, past critics of the Church – called "The Old Guard" by Anonymous – became more visible and there was nothing the Church could do to stop them, aside from attempting to silence them. However, the Church learned that any action they took would quickly be reported on the Internet, as was the case in the recent arrest of Mark Bunker, whose charges were dropped and the judge publicly stated that no arrest should have taken place to begin with.
As I predicted in February 2008, many of Anonymous who started in Project Chanology dropped-out due to sheer boredom. The first few pickets drew hundreds, even thousands, of people around the world. But, when pickets became regular monthly events, they got bored with it and left. However, there is a hardcore membership that has stayed with it until the present day, even though many of the original hackers deride them as having polluted Chanology and turned it into a shadow of its former self. I do have to admit that I really enjoyed the protests that took place in June 2008 Operation Sea Arrrgh, where Anonymous dressed-up in pirate costumes. For the first few protests, Anonymous developed themes for each protest and the Sea Arrrgh motife was pirates, as a dig against the Freewinds, which is the Church's flagship.
So, who won?
Well, Anonymous stated in their original video on YouTube that their intent was to drive the Church off the Internet. That failed. They also stated that they would destroy the Church in its current form. That failed, too.
However, comparing media coverage of Scientology post-Chanology, as opposed to pre-Chanology, the fear of the Church of Scientology had evaporated, for the most part. When Steven Colbert can publicly mock Scientology and suffer no retaliation from the Church of any kind, you know that things are different now. Decades of building fear have been undone by a bunch of kids wearing Guy Fawkes masks. Now, that's pretty sad, when you think about it.
According to what I have heard, people have left the Church post-Chanology, now being aware of a support structure awaiting them when they leave High-ranking members have defected and more people are now aware of the history of the Church and its abusive practises. While the Church still has its celebrity members, it has taken a severe blow from which it is unlikely to recover anytime soon.
People have asked me if there was anything the Church could have done to prevent the negative effects of Chanology and Anonymous. To that, I say: Yes, there was.
What the Church could have done to prevent Chanology's damage was the one thing they never though about doing. They could have done nothing.
Yeah, they could have done nothing. Their whole history consists of striking back at their critics. Hit hard, hit fast and keep hitting them until you destroy them completely. That worked in the past, so they tried it with Chanology. However, it didn't work this time and only made their situation worse.
Instead of having security guards follow protesters with cameras, they could have ignored them.
Instead of hiring private detectives to track these people to their homes, they could have done nothing.
Instead of releasing Anonymous members personal information onto the Internet, they could have done nothing.
Instead of having Church members harass and attempt to intimidate Anonymous in the streets, they could have done nothing.
Every action the Church took against Anonymous only resulted in negative publicity for themselves and created more public support for Anonymous. While the Church claimed "persecution", the public openly expressed support for the supposed "persecutors" and little for the Church. Nothing the Church did resulted in anything positive for themselves, aside from scaring a few kids with Cease & Desist orders or threatening lawsuits. A few scared teenagers doesn't make a victory.
If they had simply ignored Anonymous from the beginning, they would not have been seen as bullies themselves. Instead of shuttering their establishments, they should have kept them open. Pictures of Scientology security officers phoyographing or videotaping Anonymous simply made the Church look creepy. While this may have worked in the past against the "Old Guard", it was a foolish move against Chanology.
Even if I could build a time machine and travel back to January 2008 to show the Church what the end result of their actions would be, it wouldn't change their minds. That's because the way they reacted to Anonymous is the only way they know how to react to criticism. They cannot be any other way because they don't know how, as compared to Anonymous who showed great adaptability in the face of changing circumstances.
As with biological evolution, the life form that can adapt to a chaning environment is more likely to survive that the one which cannot adapt. Anonymous evolved while Scientology did not.
Now, the Church of Scientology faces a French court and the future of the Church in France hangs in the balance. Other nations regard them as a cult and the Church is not recognized as a religion in some countries.
Decades of creating a public face, reinforced by celebrity members and having a private force of detectives and lawyers to silence opposition could not defeat a group of kids and it will not halt the rising opposition to the Church in Europe and the growing opposition to the Church in the USA, where it is seen as a cult of loonies by many Americans. On top of all this, previously unpublicized Church of Scientology documents have been released on to the Internet, via Wikileaks. These documents include Church courses for which Church members who wish to take these course are allegedly charged thousands of dollars before they are allowed to have these materials. Now, anyone can read them, for free, in the privacy of their homes and there is nothing the Church can do about it, aside from threatening Wikileaks with lawsuits of which Wikileaks has little fear.
While Project Chanology is still on-going, I will venture my opinion on who has come out on top:
- Anonymous: mostly win
- Scientology: epic fail.

|28 July 1990 (aged 82)
|Years active
Laurence Olivier
(m. 1930; div. 1940)
|Henry V. Esmond
Eva Moore
Jill Esmond (born Jill Esmond Moore; 26 January 1908 – 28 July 1990) was an English stage and screen actress. She was the first wife of Laurence Olivier.
Early life[edit]
Esmond was born in London, the daughter of stage actors Henry V. Esmond and Eva Moore.[1] Dramatist W.S. Gilbert and actress Maxine Elliott were her godparents.[2]
While her parents toured with theatre companies, Esmond spent her childhood in boarding schools until she decided at the age of 14 to become an actress. She made her stage debut playing Wendy to Gladys Cooper's Peter Pan, but her success was short-lived. When her father died suddenly in 1922, Esmond returned to school and at the time considered abandoning her ambition to act.
After reassessing her future and coming to terms with her father's death, she studied with the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art in London, and returned to the West End stage in 1924. In 1925, she starred with her mother in a play Mary, Mary Quite Contrary, and after a few more successful roles, won critical praise for her part as a young suicide in Outward Bound.
Marriage and career[edit]
In 1928 Esmond (billed as Jill Esmond Moore) appeared in the production of Bird in the Hand, where she met fellow cast member Laurence Olivier for the first time. Three weeks later, he proposed to her.[3] In his autobiography Olivier later wrote that he was smitten with Esmond, and that her cool indifference to him did nothing but further his ardour. When Bird in the Hand was being staged on Broadway, Esmond was chosen to join the American production[4] – but Olivier was not.
Determined to be near Esmond, Olivier travelled to New York City where he found work as an actor. Esmond won rave reviews for her performance. Olivier continued to follow Esmond, and after proposing to her several times, she agreed and the couple were married on 25 July 1930 at All Saints', Margaret Street;[5] London within weeks, the couple regretted their marriage.[6] They had one son, Tarquin Olivier (born 21 August 1936).[7][8]
Returning to the United Kingdom, Esmond made her film debut with a starring role in an early Alfred Hitchcock film The Skin Game (1931), and over the next few years appeared in several British and (pre-Code) Hollywood films, including Thirteen Women (1932). She also appeared in two Broadway productions with Olivier, Private Lives in 1931 with Noël Coward and Gertrude Lawrence and The Green Bay Tree in 1933.[4]
Esmond's career continued to ascend while Olivier's own career languished, but after a couple of years, when his career began to show promise, she began to refuse roles.[9] Esmond had been promised a role by David O. Selznick in A Bill of Divorcement (1932) but at only half-salary. Olivier had discovered that Katharine Hepburn had been offered a much greater salary, and convinced Esmond to turn down the role.
Later years[edit]
Esmond starred in the Broadway production of Emlyn Williams' play The Morning Star in 1942,[4] a production which featured the acting debut of Gregory Peck. Her acting appearances grew more sporadic with the passage of time, and she made her final film appearance in 1955, around the time she made her two appearances as Eleanor of Aquitaine in the TV series The Adventures of Robin Hood.
Personal life[edit]
Esmond withstood the publicity of Olivier's affair with Vivien Leigh and did not seek a divorce. Pressed by Olivier, who was anxious to marry Leigh, she eventually agreed and they were divorced on 29 January 1940.[10][11] She returned briefly to acting and appeared in such popular films as Journey for Margaret, The Pied Piper and Random Harvest, all in 1942 and The White Cliffs of Dover (1944).
To the end of his life, Olivier continued alimony payments to Esmond.[12][Note 1] Esmond kept in touch with Olivier, and in a letter to their son Tarquin, said "It's funny after all that time how I can still love him so much."[15] Frail and in a wheelchair, she attended Olivier's memorial service in October 1989 at Westminster Abbey.[16]
Esmond was 82 years old when she died on 28 July 1990 in Wandsworth, London.[17]

All children, even the most fortunate, suffer emotional injuries. At home, in school and on the playground, all children experience disappointment, frustration and failure; criticism and disapproval; and exclusion by peers. In every family, there will be moments of anger and misunderstanding.
In healthy development, children recover from these moments. Whether on their own or with our support, most children bounce back. Emotional injuries are, in many respects, analogous to physical injuries. Just as our cells must repair physical injuries, emotional injuries also must be healed. Without this healing, the injurious process will spread.
As parents, it is important for us to recognize these common injuries and provide some healing of a child's discouragement and anger. Often, a simple acknowledgment of her disappointment or frustration is all that is necessary.
Children learn invaluable lessons from moments of repair. They learn that, although it is not always easy, moments of anxiety, sadness and anger are moments and can be repaired. Disappointments, in themselves and in others, are part of life, and feelings of anger and unfairness do not last forever.
A Pathway Toward Emotional Maturity
These are critical moments in the emotional life of a child—when admired adults are able to help a sad, anxious or angry child realize that she will not always feel this way; when we help a child who is disappointed or discouraged regain some measure of confidence in her future. In these moments, we have strengthened her inner resources for coping with disappointment and distress, and built a foundation of optimism and resilience.
We have also opened a pathway toward emotional maturity. In moments of repair, children begin to develop a more balanced, less all-or-nothing perspective on the disappointments and frustrations in their lives. As a result, they will be better able to "regulate" their emotions—they will be less urgent in their expressions of distress, less insistent in their demands, and able to think more constructively about how to solve emotional problems. Moments of repair may also reduce a child's level of physiological stress.
Ten Minutes at Bedtime
Because these moments are so important to children's emotional health, I recommend that parents set aside some time every day (perhaps ten minutes at bedtime) for kids and parents to have a chance to talk, and use this time to repair moments of conflict and misunderstanding. This may be the most important ten minutes of a child's day.
In these brief daily conversations, we should ask kids if there is something they might want to talk about—perhaps a problem at school or with friends, something they are angry with us about, or what they may be anxious about the following day.
When there has been conflict in our relationship with our kids, it is especially important for us to take the lead and begin to repair hurtful interactions. We need to make a deliberate effort to set aside criticism and judgment as long as we can and hear their side of the story. Discussion and disagreement, even problem solving, can come later. Especially, don't stay angry.
Of course, children do not always make this easy, especially when they are angry and demanding, or when they insistently blame others. And sometimes we may not know what to say. But our willingness to make the effort is important in itself.
Often, when we are able to listen patiently, we will find some truth in their side of the story, perhaps some previously unnoticed provocation or hurt feeling. We can also let children know that we know how they feel—because we have also had these feelings. We have also suffered frustrations and disappointments, and moments of embarrassment. We can say, for example, "Yes, I know, it feels really bad when other kids won't let you play…I also felt bad and angry when those kinds of things happened to me." Many children will respond to these statements with astonishment. "That happened to you!?" And, of course, it has.
Then we can help them put their disappointments in perspective. We can remind them (when they are ready to hear it) of the good things they have done and will be able to do, and that no one succeeds all the time.
And we should let them know that, win or lose, we are proud of them for their effort. A child's feeling that her parents are proud of her may be the deepest and most lasting emotional support we can offer—an anchor that sustains her in moments of anxiety and self-doubt.
Patient listening receives far less attention than it deserves in current parenting debates, in our understandable concern with children's achievement and character development. In my experience, however, there is no more important parenting "skill" than this, and nothing we do as parents that is more important for our children's emotional health—and for their success in life.

Semantically incorporate seperators in Menus
Just a short blog today to let you know of the best way to implement your navigation menus when they look like the following:
Hopefully it's obvious that this should be written semantically from an HTML point of view using UL and LI tags. Hide the list decorations, float the required elements and there you have it.
However, I have to confess I have always previously used the pipe bar character (numerical code |) to do the separators. I didn't want to use borders or background images because I didn't want to have to target the first or last LI with a separate class name. It seemed a clunky way of doing it.
Today however, a CSS expert over at one of the forums I frequent (csscreator.com) mentioned using the CSS selector :last-child which although I'd always known about, I'd avoided owing to its lack of browser support. I came back to him with this compatibility table from Quirks Mode (quirksmode.org).
Obvious solution then (thanks Gary) would just be to give everything a left hand border and use the first-child selector to turn it off on the far left element. Of course this is on the assumption IE6 isn't an issue (I don't even consider 5.5 a browser anymore) and IE7 won't work if this menu needs to adapt within the page without a page reload.
I feel particularly good about this approach since it was highlighted that using the pipe bar character in the HTML, despite contradicting the number one rule of semantic web code (keep the visual styling and the content completely separate) meant that menus done like this are extremely annoying for screen reader users who would presumably have to hear ever separator read out to them!
Please excuse the embedded styles used only to simplify the example code.

The paper "Magnetic-flux quantization in a cylindrical film of a normal metal" D.Yu. Sharvin and Yu.V. Sharvin (1981)
2014-05-28 18:22:02
The paper [1] is one of the last papers from the time of romantic physics. To have success in experimental investigations at that time, it was necessary to reasonably formulate the aims of the experiment, to be able to use appropriate experimental techniques, and to prepare the object of investigations by one's own hands without using high technology methods.
