O Local New Jersey
My family of 6 stayed at this lovely property over the Thanksgiving holiday. It was meticulously clean, and had everything needed to relax, stretch out, and enjoy the holiday. It was convenient to the lively Germantown Avunue shopping and restaurant area, as well as downtown Philadelphia. You need a car to get around, but street parking outside the house was safe and ample. Even though i brought my Thanksgiving meal already prepared, the house had everything i would have needed to prepare a full Thanksgiving meal. The living room furniture was SO comfortable, that it was hard to get our Thanksgiving guests to leave after the meal and watching movies in front of the nice warm fireplace in the living room! We had a minor glitch with the heat the first evening we arrived, and Ms.Lynch came right over and addressed the issue very promptly. She was a lovely lady, and her home reflects her warm hospitality and attention to detail. It turns out that my husband went to elementary school not far from this house many moons ago, so we will definitely stay here the next time we want to make special memories in Philadelphia!
We have stayed at this home three times now and we are always pleased! The house is clean, easy parking, great location, and has all the amenities we need. We come with 3-4 adults and 2 young children each time and we have plenty of room. The washer and dryer are very nice along with all of the kitchen appliances. The owner is wonderful to work with and always helpful with reccomending local restaurants. She has a basket full of information you might need to get around and enjoy your stay in the area. We will stay here again!
Lovely, clean, old home in a quiet, very friendly neighborhood. Short walk to train and bus. Extremely thoughtful that our first morning's breakfast was provided. Our party had four adults and three small children and there was plenty of room for all to relax. We attended the World meeting of the families and this house was a nice haven at the end of long days.
Plastic on the rugs was the only quirky drawback.
Based on the owner's listing and the reviews our expectations were pretty high, but unfortunately were not met. The immediate neighborhood was ok, but it got a little sketchy within a couple of blocks. The house had an unusual odor and plastic runners on the floor. The kitchen was small and sparse, and the bathroom was straight out of the 60s. The "half bath" was an oddly placed toilet in the basement.
It was clean and close to the train station, so if you lack other options its a place to lay your head after a day of Philadelphia sightseeing.
My wife and I stayed here with two other friends while in Philly for our daughter's engagment party. The place was awesome! Pam set us up with a great little breakfast that was nice after a late arrival. There was plenty of room to have our family over after the party and sit around the dining room table. Very clean with plenty of room, plenty of parking, and very comfortable. I will stay here again if I'm in the Philly area! Thanks Pam!
My husband and I stayed here for a week, while visiting family. The location was great, and the home was even nicer than described. We can highly recommend this house. It was spotlessly clean, and the owner has evidently put a lot of thought into what a visitor might need. She was very easy to work with, and having breakfast groceries waiting for us was so helpful to get us off to a good start.

Arlington names president
Arlington Park has chosen Roy Arnold, a career military man with no experience in the racing industry, as Arlington's next president, the track and its parent company, Churchill Downs Inc., announced Thursday.
Arnold succeeds Cliff Goodrich, a longtime racing executive who spent two seasons at Arlington before resigning to return to California late last year. Goodrich had followed Steve Sexton, who now serves as president of Churchill Downs and Ellis Park.
Arnold, who will assume his post at Arlington on April 11, worked in the military for 30 years, according to a press release from Churchill Downs Inc. The release stated that Arnold "held leadership positions at home and abroad at every level of the Marine Corps and held command positions in such important military campaigns as Operations Desert Shield, Desert Storm, and Operation Iraqi Freedom II." His most recent assignment was as assistant wing commander for the 3rd Marine Aircraft Wing, 1 Marine Expeditionary Force.
The hiring makes sense in at least one context: Arlington chairman Dick Duchossois's own military background. In Churchill's release, Duchossois, who achieved the rank of major during his time in the military, compared the leadership skills of a military officer with those required of a racetrack executive "to navigate today's increasingly competitive business landscape."
Duchossois himself had been overseeing the nuts and bolts of Arlington operations since Goodrich's departure. The track also has a new director of racing, Kevin Greely, who arrived in Chicago earlier this year after a tenure as a major racing official in Dubai.
The 50-year-old Arnold is a native of Ithaca, N.Y., and received a bachelor of science degree before going on to earn two master's degrees, one in international relations, another in national security affairs. Arnold reportedly has been immersing himself in the business of running a racetrack, and a crash course is coming soon, since Arlington's 2006 racing season begins May 5.

TEACHERS: Current events podcasts for the classroom!
In June a 21-year-old white man entered a historic black church in Charleston, South Carolina, attended the bible study, and then shot and killed nine of the black church members. The alleged shooter was later identified as Dylann Roof, a self proclaimed white supremacist who photographed himself with a Confederate flag and hoped to start a race war. Listen to this story to learn how the attack has reignited the debate about the role of the Confederate flag as a symbol of Southern heritage.
Update: South Carolina Governor signed a bill that removes the Confederate battle flag from the Capitol grounds on July 9, 2015.

SAN DIEGO -- Nine outs away.
This was where the legendary Cuban National Team found itself Saturday, in a ballpark thousands of miles from home.
Nine outs away from a staggering defeat that would have sent these men home to Havana, their business unfinished, their message undelivered.
Nine outs away from their worst finish in any international baseball event in more than half a century.
Nine outs away.
But you find out a lot about players like this, about teams like this, in moments like this. And what we found out Saturday is that there's a reason Cuba has won 20 consecutive World Cups, and three Olympic gold medals, and 22 of its last 24 games in international competitions of many shapes and forms.
One minute, the Cubans trailed the Dominican Republic's fabled Dream Team, 1-0, in the seventh inning of the World Baseball Classic semifinals. Four batters later, they had stampeded from behind to take the lead. And by the time the sun dropped into the Pacific, these mysterious men from Cuba were heading for Monday night's WBC final against Japan.
We know -- and they know -- that their 3-1 victory certainly won't be viewed in many parts of the world as a great triumph for this sport.
In the Dominican, this will be looked on as nothing short of a national tragedy. And in major-league clubhouses everywhere, it will be seen as both an embarrassment and a wakeup call -- that not one freaking team of big-league All-Stars will still be playing in Monday's championship finale.
But in Cuba, they know exactly what all this means.
It means more than all the World Cups, all the Olympic medals, all those other global baseball games combined.
"This," said Cuban left fielder Frederich Cepeda, "is the greatest victory in Cuban baseball history -- because our opponents were major-league players."
And those major-league players were the men who were supposed to use this tournament to put Cuba in its place, right? Yeah, they were the kings of international baseball. But who'd they ever beat?
That was the argument, anyway. We'd all heard it a thousand times. But those Cubans had heard it a thousand times, too. And it was clear Saturday those words have been ricocheting around their heads every time they took the field in the WBC.
"This tournament was a test for Cuba," Cepeda said. "Everyone says, 'Cuba wins every time, but if they play against major-league teams, that won't happen.' But we won [last Wednesday] against Puerto Rico. We won [March 12] against Venezuela. And today we won against the Dominican Republic.
"They have major-league players," said Frederich Cepeda. "So people know now that we can play against major-league players."
They have more to prove. They have another game to play. They can't start pouring the Mojitas yet. But they wanted this stage. And they knew exactly what to do when they got there.
The Dominicans, on the other hand, didn't even do the one thing they were assembled to do -- hit.
They scored 19 runs in their first two games of the tournament. They then scored 17 in their final five games combined.
Alfonso Soriano went 0 for the WBC (0-for-12). Albert Pujols went one for his last 11. David Ortiz went one for his last 10. Ortiz and Adrian Beltre combined for four home runs in the WBC opener. The entire team combined for five in the final six games.
Not quite what was expected from a team that was supposed to throw football scores up there on WBC scoreboards in three time zones.
Asked Saturday if he thought these fabled hitters just weren't ready yet, Beltre couldn't help but laugh.
"Do I think," he asked, "or I just saw it?
"Let me ask you," Beltre went on. "When was the last time you saw Albert Pujols not get a hit in eight at-bats with men in scoring position? That doesn't happen -- not very often. But hey, no excuses. We lost."
Not many Dominican players were even available afterward, we regret to report. Clubhouses are closed after all WBC games. And the media was informed at one point that no Dominican players would be coming to the "informal interview area" where it's normally possible to speak to players outside the formal press-conference setting.
So American reporters were forced to stake out the tunnel between the clubhouse and the team bus, inhaling the sweet aroma of bus fumes in an attempt to grab a few honest thoughts from the last marquee team to get bounced from this tournament.
Fortunately, several players -- Beltre, losing pitcher Odalis Perez and second baseman Placido Polanco -- were classy enough to stop. And as gracious as they attempted to be, they knew a third-place finish was nothing to celebrate -- not for this team.
"One thing I'll say," said Perez. "Cuba is a great team. They have good players, smart players. But I'll tell you one thing. In a short tournament, anybody can win. We faced them two times. We won once [in Round 2]. They won once [Saturday]. But if we faced them 10 times ... we'd beat them nine out of 10. I really believe that.
"If we lost, we lost. But I believe the Dominican is the best in the business."
To be the best, though, you have to beat the best. And by not doing that, this team deflated a nation that was counting on winning this event -- then partying for the next three years, until the next WBC gave them a chance to do it all over again.
"I know in the Dominican right now, it's a funeral," Perez said.
But "funeral" might not have been such a figurative term for the reception the Cuban team would have gotten back home if this game, and this tournament, had turned out different. These guys give new meaning to that expression, "must-win game."
Is there anyone out there who thinks Cuba came to the WBC just to play baseball? Is there anyone naïve enough to believe Cuba didn't also come to make a statement? And is there anyone not politically aware enough to know that we're not just talking about a sports kind of statement?
We hope not. That's all we can say. We hope not.
At any rate, it was obviously no accident that the Cubans saved arguably their two best pitchers for this game with the Dominicans.
The first 4 1/3 innings were handled by 21-year-old right-hander Yadel Marti, who did what he did throughout the WBC -- put up zeroes. His ridiculous WBC totals: 12 2/3 innings, six hits, zero runs.
But Cuban manager Higinio Velez had his bullpen pumping nonstop in the first inning. And after Marti allowed a one-out single to Wily Mo Pena in the fifth, Velez waved for hulking Cuban legend Pedro Luiz Lazo -- who had thrown somewhere in the neighborhood of 786 warmup pitches by then.
Lazo is to Cuba what Roger Clemens is to America these days -- his country's greatest active pitcher. He owns 209 lifetime wins in the Cuban league, more than any current Cuban. But for the Cuban National Team, he puts away his Clemens persona -- and turns into Mariano Rivera.
Not to mention his own one-man setup crew.
So Lazo stomped to the mound, wrapped a massive bear hug around Marti and went to work.
His first challenge: a two-on, one-out mess in the fifth. He escaped that one with a stunning strikeout/caught-stealing double play. But then came even more trouble in the sixth -- nearly fatal trouble.
The Dominicans barely hit a ball hard all afternoon. But Polanco bounced a single through the middle to start the inning, and Miguel Tejada thunked a bloop single to right. So Lazo had to stare at first and third, nobody out -- with Pujols, Ortiz and Beltre looming.
It seemed just about impossible for Lazo to wriggle out of this nightmare. But amazingly, he all but pitched out of it -- until his second baseman, Yulieski Gourriel, clanked a routine, two-out roller by Beltre, then panicked and heaved it halfway to Havana.
So suddenly, it was Dominican 1, Cuba 0. And a major Dominican pep rally was bursting out in the seats.
But not for long.
Asked about the Cubans' mindset when they realized they were nine outs from defeat, Cepeda replied: "We never worried -- because we didn't have time to worry."
And the reason they didn't have time to worry is that they had wiped out that lead faster than you could say, "Fidel."
Two infield hits. One throwing error by Beltre. One Cuban manager pinch-hitting for his cleanup hitter. And one concede-the-run ground ball. That's all it took for Cuba to tie this game, 1-1.
Then the Tony Gwynn of Cuba, five-time .400 hitter Osmany Urrutia, stroked a go-ahead single through a drawn-in infield. And Cuba was ahead to stay.
The rest was essentially up to Lazo. Who stuck around until the job was done. For 14 outs -- yep, 14. For 81 pitches -- yep, 81.
They don't make closers like that in the old U.S.A., amigos.
Then again, they don't make them like that in Cuba, either.
"Lazo, he can win 20 games back in his hometown -- in a [season] of 90 games, not in a [season] of 160 games," Velez said. "When you have a starter like that, it is very difficult to use someone like this as a relief pitcher. ... But what I needed was a good stopper, a good closer, who could have good control, good courage and deal with the situation -- because it's a very stressful situation."
In Cuba, though, life itself is a very stressful situation. So these are men who don't fear this kind of stress.
"In every game we play, there is a lot of pressure," Cepeda said, "because it's sudden death. Cuba plays in sudden-death games every time we play, so we're ready for sudden death in every game we play. The Dominican team is a team of stars. But maybe their team doesn't make the playoffs, so they're not as used to sudden death as we are."
Well, maybe. But maybe it was also as simple as seeing hitters in spring-training mode facing pitchers who were literally in midseason form.
The Dominican's last big chance -- two on, one out in the eighth -- died when Ortiz popped up a hanging slider, after which Beltre lined to left. Asked if Ortiz had just missed the most hittable pitch he saw all day, Polanco answered, simply: "I don't know how ready he is."
But ready or not, the Dominicans were heading home -- or back to spring-training reality, at least. And the Cubans were still playing. Were they ever.
Playing ... and chasing a dream the rest of us can't possibly understand.

- Belle Minimix 150 Electric/Petrol Cement Mixer
These bright orange British made mixers can be found virtually any place where building work is being carried out. They are very well built, strong and fitted with a choice of 230V, 110V or Honda petrol engine to suit every need. They are easily manageable as a one-man machine, with barrow height swivel and stand. Supplied with rotating stand. 90 litre capacity.
We've all seen the classic orange machine, usually in the back of a truck, on a building site or on a front lawn. They are mostly covered in muck and look as though they have seen better days. However, although they look as if they are at death's door, when switched on and filled with cement, sand and water they work exactly the same way as if they are switched on for the first time.
Let's be honest, they wouldn't be the number one cement mixer of choice for the hire industry if they couldn't take some serious abuse!
The Minimix 150 is the orange beacon of the building trade and is available in three versions: Honda Petrol, 230V and 110V to cover all your needs. They all come complete with stand and, when used with wheels, can be used as a concrete mixer barrow. Or, use the supplied static swivel stand, which is a perfect height for tipping into a wheelbarrow.
Get the Honda Petrol Minimix 150.
Use the 110V Minimix 150.
Buy the 230V Minimix 150.
If you are anything like us, you will not be using your cement mixer every day. So why not use it for something else when you have no building work on. An idle cement mixer makes a great compost tumbler. Just throw your rotten waste with some topsoil and you have the perfect compost for your garden! So buy a Belle.

Best everThese mixers have been around for so long. 49 years ago I satarted working for a tool hire company and we hired these mixers, as long as customers claned them at the end of a mixing sesion they required very little maintenance, in fact the only real problems where caused by heavy handed labourers smashing the drum rim and causing splitting with their shovels. I eventually found a method of stopping this by welding steel hoops inside the drum lip. When the drums eventually sucumb to the heavy handedness replacement drums where simple to fit. I was in the game for 15 years and most of the fleet were still mixing (don't know about the ones that where nicked).

why dog sleigh when you can travel in comfort? Sure there's a logical question. Have these creatives ever lived in an environment where a dogsleigh is commonly used? If so they might know that a car is not an acceptable substitute - a snowscooter is. Why? Less risk of breaking through the ice, nimwads. rnA three ton car is not a substitute for a dog sleigh. So why compare your car to a dog sleigh? Trying to woo those affluent dog-sleigh owners to buy your brand?

"Disappointed with the appointments system"
About: Pinderfields General Hospital Pinderfields General Hospital Wakefield WF1 4DG
Posted by Anonymous
Anything else?
My daughter saw a consultant in September of 2012 he requested to see her two months later. I received a letter from the contact centre asking me to ring them which I did only to be told the consultant had no clinics and my daughter would have to wait until after Christmas into the new year. When I received no further letter in the new year I was very disappointed. I tried numerous times to contact the consultants secretary with no success. I waited and waited and still no appointment. My health visitor contacted the consultants secretary and the response she got was "oh I dont know I will have to look into it" no apology no nothing and still no appointment. Enough was enough and at another appointment my daughter had at pinderfields I complained and kept on at the receptionist to do something she did help me and got my daughter the appointment she needed this was after waiting 8 months to be seen. Disgusted. This should not be happening and this is not the kind of care anybody deserves.

Re: TTC poetry brought culture to city, Letter Aug. 13
Denis Deneau says he hopes that the TTC's Poetry on the Way can be revived. I share this hope. Poetry on the Way gave me some great contemplative moments on public transit.
It represents the kind of public generosity that makes a machine-like city more liveable for human animals — putting more soul in the city.
I hope too that the Star brings back a weekly dose of fresh poetry. The contributions by Toronto poet laureate Giorgio di Cicco made were an eventful part of the week for me.
Douglas Moore, Toronto
Although I saw the Poetry on the Way only on those occasions when I was in Toronto, taking the TTC, I was a regular reader of the poet laureate contributions in the the Star.
Poetry should be everywhere. We could use "a moment of grace" often. Every day. Please bring back the voices who contribute to our personal reflections on life, on the human condition. Poetic voices that can be heard in the silence of a subway car; poetic voices that co-mingle with the events written in the daily news — wherever possible.
Helen Bajorek-MacDonald, Courtice

Wot Chicks head to the worlds
27 March 2008
Wot Chicks head to the worlds
Fresh off the back of a podium place in last weeks lead up regatta, Australias highest ranked woman match racer Katie Spithill and her crew are heading to New Zealand this weekend to contest the BSPORT ISAF Womens Match Racing World Championship 2008 sporting brand new team colours.
As they enter their third year of campaigning on the international stage, Spithill and her crew have announced a new team name - Wot Chicks - which recognisesnew title sponsor Graeme Wood, founder of Australasia's number one accommodation website Wotif.com, who is looking to expand awareness of Wotif.com and associated brands.
"Katie and her team have already demonstrated their commitment and talent. The next few years are going to be very exciting and I'm delighted to be able to support them," said Mr Wood.
The new sponsorship announcement provides an enormous boost to our efforts. We can now focus all energy on performance in the knowledge we can prepare the best sailors and attend the best events, says coach Traks Gordon.
Spithill, the younger sister of famous Americas Cup helmsman James Spithill, and her squad of Wot Chicks sailors are heavily focused on the world championship to be hosted by the Royal New Zealand Yacht Squadron in Auckland from 1-6 April 2008.
Like many of the teams challenging for the grade one regatta, Spithill and her crew of Nina Curtis, Jessica Eastwell and Kristen Short used last weeks Harken Womens International Match Racing Regatta on Sydney Harbour to clock up valuable time aboard the Elliott 6s, the class selected for the worlds. This week they were back training on their own on the Harbour, honing their crew work before the team flies to Auckland this Sunday.
World number one Claire Leroy (FRA) toppled Spithill in last years world championships, the Australian finishing runner up to the current ISAF Rolex World Sailor of the Year. Next week the world number threes quest for Leroys result in 2007 and world ranking switches to top gear.
For 2008 Wot Chicks has scheduled 14 events in 10 countries including New Zealand, USA, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany, Brazil, Sweden, Italy and Australia. Each event will be sailed in a different class of boat requiring teams between three and seven sailors.
Wot Chicks current squad includes Katie Spithill, Nina Curtis, Jessica Eastwell, Kristen Short, Sarah Willmot, Nicole Douglas and Heidi Gordon. Most of the current squad are Royal Prince Alfred Yacht Club Youth Academy sailors and all are representatives of RPAYC.
In November 2007 ISAF announced womens match racing as a discipline for the 2012 Olympic Games which has provided Wot Chicks with a long term goal.

Soul Calendar 06 eurythmy 2nd week of May
Week 27, 1st week of October:
Week 6, 2nd week of May.
How to breathe with each verse of Calendar of the Soul?
· The Stage lights gives one way, often forward on the prologue- as it is through the text - and reverse order in the epilogue.
· The forms, another: are there one or many forms?
· The colours of the veils, yet another;
· The sounding breath (of the eurythmic movement) sounds of vowels or consonants or both, this is still another variation of the breathing of the weekly verse. A few sound in the prologue and epilogue, and eurythmic sounds done while the text is recited. Some times the recitation is done before and the whole piece is moved in silence.
There are five eurythmists on the stage,
Prologue: or how to breathe before the verse:
Colour of eurythmists:
Surrounding them is a colour on their "veil"; they move their feelings according to that colour;
1 and 2: YELLOW,
3 and 4: VIOLET,
Colour of stage lights:
Surrounding them is a colour from the stage lights; they move their feelings according to that colour;
First part: green and red, foot lights: white and blue
Second part: white and red, foot lights: green and blue.
Sound sequence:
They move in the mood of different sounds of the alphabet, in a sequence:
1 and 2 I/I,
3 and 4: A/O/A/O,
*The vowel sounds are as in the original German so in English: A is [Ah], E is [Eh], I is [ee], O is[Oh], U is [oo],and Ei is as in [by]
Movement Sequence:
5 doe its form once whilst 2, 3, and 4 do their little forms three times.
Text form:
Then during the recitation
Lines 1-4: ABOVE: green and red, foot lights: white and blue
5 goes to A, the others do their form once.
Es ist erstanden aus der Eigenheit
Mein Selbst und findet sich
5 goes to B, the others do their form once.
Als Weltenoffenbarung
Lines 5-7: ABOVE: white and red, foot lights: green and blue.
In Zeit- und Raumeskräften;
5 finishes its form, the others do their form once more.
Die Welt, sie zeigt mir überall
Als göttlich Urbild
They all do the dotted form.
Des eignen Abbilds Wahrheit.
Lighting and sounds as prologue, usually in reverse order.
They move the prologue forms
John Salter's translation:
Arisen from its separate state
My self is now discovered
As revelation of all worlds
Active in space and time;
On every side the world reveals,
As archetype divine,
The truth of my own likeness.

Escape Room Game Coming to Atlantic City
A new kind of intrigue is coming to Atlantic City as Tropicana Casino and Resort gets set to debut four rooms guests will have to work to escape.
A new kind of intrigue is coming to Atlantic City as Tropicana Casino and Resort gets set to debut four rooms guests will have to work to escape.
This year's Thunder Over the Boardwalk was better than ever in Atlantic City. It was hot, but perfect weather. We saw the return of the Blue Angels, as well as a few vintage planes and helicopters. All of them, of course, were quite loud.
Country group Rascal Flatts are Atlantic City bound. The platinum album-selling trio will make their way to the AC beach this August.
We know a huge Ferris Wheel is coming to the steel pier, but about this attraction?
When it comes to the future of Bader Field, we have told you about a few options for the vacant airport. Today, the wheels could be moving towards a real possibility.
The highly anticipated Bass Pro Shops finally opened in Atlantic City! In case you missed the ceremony, here's what the inside of this place looks like.
Love is in the food!
The CRDA officially has approved 35 million dollars in renovations to Tropicana Casino and Resort!
In an effort to boost mid-week getaways in Atlantic City, "Toll-Free Tuesdays" are coming!
After the huge success Atlantic City had with the free beach concerts, the CRDA hopes to amp up the music scene.
The Insane Inflatable 5k at Bader Field was an absolute success, not to mention the fact it was a blast. But the best part of the day happened at the end of the event, when a woman completed the race, slid down the finish line slide, and had the surprise of her life.
I had the best seat in the house.

A summary of the Trump tax proposals that apply to mainstream Americans.
Tax tips and developments relating to partnerships
What are the choices of forms for a business?
This week's interview on Financial Insider Weekly is with attorney Bernard Vogel III of the Silicon Valley Law Group. Our interview subject is "Choices of forms for doing business."
What developments have happened for Family Limited Partnerships and LLCs?
This week's interview on Financial Insider Weekly is with attorney Francis Burton Doyle of WealthPLAN. Our interview subject is ""Developments for Family Limited Partnerships and LLCs."
How will businesses be affected by California's Proposition 39?
Although California's Proposition 39 was "sold" as closing a tax loophole for out of state businesses, it's not quite as simple as that. Some California businesses will also be affected.
The allocation and apportionment rules apply to all businesses that are "doing business" in California, including corporations, S corporations, partnerships, sole proprietorships and limited liability companies.
The new rules are effective for taxable years beginning on or after January 1, 2013.
Businesses are considered to be "doing business" in California and therefore subject to the allocation and apportionment rules subjecting some of their income to California tax if any of these apply:
1. The taxpayer is organized or commercially domiciled in California.
2. Sales of the taxpayer in California exceed the lesser of $500,000 or 25% of the the taxpayer's total sales. Sales of the taxpayer include sales by an agent or independent contractor of the taxpayer.
3. The real property and tangible personal property of the taxpayer in California exceed the lesser of $50,000 or 25% of the taxpayer's total real property and tangible personal property.
4. The amount paid in California by the taxpayer for compensation exceeds the lesser of $50,000 or 25% of the total compensation paid by by the taxpayer.
(California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23101(b).)
Before the changes, California businesses had a choice to either compute the share of their income taxable by California based on (1) the share of their sales in California divided by their total sales, or (2) a formula based on the share of sales, payroll and property in California.
Under Proposition 39, the second alternative is eliminated.
The reason for eliminating the second alternative is businesses could reduce their California tax by locating their property and employees outside of California. In addition to avoiding California tax, this feature made the second alternative appear to be a "job killer" for California. Of course, there are other disincentives for locating a business in California that are beyond the scope of this article.
There is another feature of this change that hasn't been widely discussed. It is the definition of whether income from services are "sourced" to California. Under alternative (1), which will now be the only alternative, income from services are allocated according to where the purchaser of the services received the benefit of the services. For example, if a CPA firm prepares income tax returns for a New York client, the income will be sourced to New York. Under the old rules of alternative (2), income from services were allocated according to where the services were performed. For example, if a employees of a CPA firm located in a California office prepared income tax returns for a New York client in the California office and never went to New York, the income would be sourced to California.
(The rule under alternative (1) is at California Revenue and Taxation Code Section 23136(a).)
This change in the source rules for income from services is being adopted in many states, which means more service businesses will have to file income tax returns in many states. This can be a burden, but smaller businesses might fall under an exception like 2. above, having less than $500,000 of gross receipts in the state and less than 25% of total gross receipts in the state.
See your tax advisor for more details about how your business is affected.
How can you use a family limited partnership to preserve your family's assets?
This week's interview on Financial Insider Weekly is with attorney Frank Doyle of WealthPLAN. Our interview subject is "Preserving family assets using a family limited partnership or LLC".
What are choices of forms for a business?
This week's interview on Financial Insider Weekly is with attorney Karl-Heinz Lachnit of the Silicon Valley Law Group. Our interview subject is, "Choices of forms for operating a business".
If you have a net worth of $10 million or more, consider making big gifts during 2011 and 2012
If you have a very large estate, say exceeding $10 million, you should meet with your tax advisor and estate planning attorney to discuss whether you should make big gifts during 2011 or 2012, which assets are good candidates for gifts, and how they should be transferred.
What are income and estate tax benefits of family limited partnerships?
This week's interview on Financial Insider Weekly is with attorney Frank Doyle. Our interview subject is, "What are income and estate tax benefits of family limited partnerships?"
Profit motive required for business deductions
Businesses that generate consistent losses are an audit flag to the IRS. Under Internal Revenue Code Section 183, if an activity isn't engaged in for profit, the deductions for the activity are generally limited to the amount of income from the activity.
IRS gives relief for failed exchanges when intermediary becomes bankrupt
The IRS has issued a revenue procedure to help taxpayers left "holding the bag" when exchange intermediaries defaulted on completing exchange transactions relating to a bankruptcy of the intermediary.

One of several widespread misunderstanding regarding the warmth from this kind of sauna is it is interchanged as ultraviolet radiation or Ultra violet rays. The heating because of this much infrared saunas is named the Much-infrared vibrant or FIR heating. Both Ultra violet rays and also the FIR warm are located in the sun rays in the sunshine. The important and big difference between them is definitely the FIR heating does not injury or harmed the epidermis compared with what sort of Ultra violet rays would it. Fairly, it presents some great benefits of so what can be acquired from the natural light.

Interested in discussing the sound quality of NewClassD (and other class d amps)?
The thread "New module by Lars Clausen" has been closed by the moderator.
I think that is a pity, since it not until now that the modules are being shipped out and we have a fair chanche to take part of more than one persons point of view.Also it might be interesting to have it compared to other class d amps, old as well as new ones.
If there are more people interested in this issue I hope someone will start a thread or hang on to this one.
With all due respect:
And now for something completely the same.

Hi, all.
Thank you Anzgar for the thought to start a new thread for the listening impressions of the NewClassD modules.
Let's hope that we can all contribute with unbiased opinions to whatever listening experiences will be gained with this new design by Lars.
I have followed the previous post from day one and although great insight was gained (thanks classd4sure), in the end i was left with a bitter taste in my mouth for the words exchanged between fellow diyiers (of shorts..).
Anyway as i am also waiting for the modules to arrive to Greece, when i finish building the true dual mono power amp, i will revert with my findings against linear amplification (Audia Flight Pre / Power 100 class-A designs) and two different sets of loudspeakers: one of the sensitive kind (Furuyama Audio Labs full range assisted by a Great Heil tweeter and Backes&Muller Sub1) and the other of the low sensitivity kind (Dynaudio Confidence 5 - one of the best for my liking anyway).
Let's hope that we will get many replies on this thread with all sorts of comments on sonics only. I will not be posting any measurments or graphs, just plain comments of how they sound.
I might be tempted to test it against the zappulse 2.3Se and XE700 amps i have also built in the past.

Hi marmasuoris and welcome to the thread!
I see you have got your 700XE modules,congratulations!I have not got mne or got my money back either, I got a copuple of faulty modules which I returned and when LC Audio announced they will not deliver any of them I thought I'd get my money back but so far I only payed for nothing.
I obviously will receive the NewClassD modules tomorrow and I can hardly wait until then,,, I hope I'll won't do any mistake in assembling the amp but spend tomorrow evening listening to the new class D for the first time.
Will you tell a litte about how you experienc the sound of 700XEs?To start with....
And now for something completely the same.

Anzgar: O.K. then, let's start...
I did not experience any problems so far with these modules and i have implemented two different power amps. The first one was with the stock power supply/transformer as supplied by LC Audio (i.e. Predator extended with 2X15,000mF caps and 550VA single transformer) and the other was a dual mono power supply using two 650VA transformers plus 4X18,000mF Nippon Chemicon Gold Tune caps with 4X35A diodes (normal ones no ultra fast soft recovery ones).
The main difference between the two P/S was a better soundstage, more unconstrained sound better transiets when the stiffer power supply was used. The difference was the same as moving from the zappulse 2.3SE to the 700XE modules. BTW the stiffer power supply can justify the extra expenditure easily and the same applies as well as moving from the 2.3Se modules up to the 700Xe ones. It's a pity though that tey are discontinued but wait...let's be optimistic..let's see how NCD compares....
Soongsc: The Audia power amp is a real beast in the way it was put together: 32 Toshiba IGBTs 2x750 VA trans with a total of 200,000mF Kendeil caps for just 100watts etc. But the end question is how it sounds... Well the 700Xe with the stiffer p/s has better low end, quicker and more robust, the midrange is more clear and the highs more extended but not as holographic as the class A design. Also the microdynamics are better resolved through the class A design but the overall sound is more laid back than with the class-D. If your loudspeakers have high sensitivity and sound up-front and you still want to use the 700XE class-d design then you can combine it with a passive unit (i have used one with a 10k pot) with v.good results.
There was a mismatch when i used the Audia Flight Preamplifier with the 700XE amp and my 95db high sensitivity speakers...there was a high hissing sound that would not go whether i used the single ended or balanced connection. I believe it was the fact that the class-d amp has a higher gain than the matching Audia amp. When the Dynaudios were used the hissing sound diminished a lot but still it was not as dead quite as i have read the UcD amp is (according to classd4sure).
classd4sure: I have not built any other class-d amps except the LC Audio kits (from the first version of zappulse 2.1), but i have heard ready made ones from CI Audio, Tact, Jeff Rowland, Sharp etc. I believe you can tailor the final sound from a diy to your liking and i believe that if you know what you are doing the final result can outperform many ready-made units.

Brynn is a concept artist and illustrator for film, games and publishing currently living and working in Long Beach, CA. She specializes in creature design and animal anatomy, and she has worked with a variety of clients including Warner Brothers, Europa Corp, Disney Publishing, Reel FX, Wizards of the Coast, Dark Horse Comics, and ImagineFX Magazine to name a few. Brynn has shared a few of her go-to techniques for designing awesome creatures, and we couldn't wait to share them with you.
Tip 1: Real Animal Drawing and Study
The first and most crucial step in creature design is studying real animals here on earth. Nature has designed millions of different species over billions on years on our planet. There are countless solutions and ideas out there to inspire you! It's important to produce lots of observational drawing. You can draw animals in parks, at the zoo, museums or even from photographs. Zoos, farms and parks give you're the opportunity to get up close to the animal. Drawing from life like this will give you a sense of how the animal moves around as well as a sense of scale. You will also exercise your ability to capture gestures.
Drawing at museums give you the advantage of seeing fossils, bones and diagrams of different animals. You may also be able to draw from taxidermy models or sculptures of different species. Photographs and film are a great way to study different animals that may be hard to see in person. I would recommend using multiple photos of the animal as you draw; it will help you realize the volumes and anatomy of its body.
As you draw animals more and more from life and photos, it's great to move into anatomy diagrams. You can find resources in books (I've listed a few of my favorites at the end of this article) and online. Mapping out the internal structures of real animals will not only give you a better sense of how they are put together, it will also give you the ability to mesh different anatomies together when you create creature concepts and designs.
Tip 2: Use Wireframes, Gesture and Planar View to Draw Creatures
When you begin to draw out your creature concepts, using the techniques you use when drawing from life or photographs is a must. I start with wire frames. This way of capturing a gesture is extremely important because it can help you locate the line of action, the skeleton, and the overall pose and attitude of your subject. I tend to use this step after I've sketched a few silhouettes at a side view to work out the initial design and silhouette of the creature.
From here I block in gesture to figure out the forms of the creature. This is a great way to keep your concept loose and full of life. We don't want things to feel to stiff; we are designing an asset that will be animated and interact with an audience.
After I lock in my gesture, I move on to planar view. This way of drawing is essentially breaking the forms into 3D shapes so you can better understand their perspective and volume. Using contour lines will help you understand the direction in which the planes of the creature's body are pointing. Planar view will give you the ability to draw creatures and organic concepts from any point of view!
These steps are extremely helpful with making your creature design feel organic and full of life.
Tip 3: Color, Shape, Texture and Story - Give your creature a "lived-in" look
Using things like color, shape, texture and story in your creature designs will help your audience better connect and experience your creation. Color can play an important role in adding to the alignment of your creature (good vs evil vs neutral). In nature, high contrasting, bright colors can indicate danger or poison. Using these same kinds of combinations can make a creature design feel dangerous or uncertain.
If we keep the colors warm and soft, the creature can feel more familiar or maybe even friendly. Shape plays big into creature design as well. Thinking about the overall silhouette of your creature can really help push the idea you're trying to convey. For the tooth fairy, the most important factors are the teeth and wings, we those are over exaggerated so we see them first. Shape can convey personality and characters. Big, boxy shapes are associated with strength and power while rounded softer shapes are associated with comfort and playfulness.
Think about the difference between a golden retriever and a Doberman pincer. The golden retriever is soft in overall tone and shape. They are round in the face and muzzle and their overall shape is very rounded. The Doberman pincer in contrast has striking markings and a sharp looking shape. The pointed snout and sleek build give the animal a fierce look. These animals aren't inherently good or evil but our associations with shapes found in nature can influence the way in which we perceive characters and creatures. A great example of shape and color theory can be found in the differences between Disney's Scar and Mufasa. Color, shape and texture can help sell your creature's evolutionary history and placement within its environment. We always want to put function at the forefront of what we're designing. Think about how your creature will survive in its environment and what its body might look like to do so. Lastly, but certainly not least, think about story.
Where does your creature come from, how long has it lived, has it been in battles or fights? These sorts of questions will help make your creature feel more lived in and better give your audience and sense of who they are. Showing these experiences on your creature's body will give unspoken clues to the viewer. Scars, broken teeth or missing horns will show a turbulent past while a pristine looking animal will show the opposite. Adding in a few nicks and tears will keep the design interesting.
Looking over these brief notes, you can easily see that studying, drawing and generally being interested in wildlife here on earth is a crucial part of adding believability to your creature designs.
We want to thank Brynn for these thorough, informative tips, and we can't wait to see what you create after applying them to your own work! Be sure to check out Brynn's website to stay updated on her creations.
