Brother passed away intestate, with 10 year old minor as his sole heir. Decedent had no real property, just 2 checking accounts, one of them under the name of his own (S-Corporation) DBA, and a stock-brokerage account, but these assets prob. total less than $25K. Has personal items, and a car ($6K est.) which is paid off. The deceased has letters from the IRS and State of CA (dated late 2012) indicating that he owes $15K to $35K in taxes from 2010-11. 2011 taxes may not have been filed (though we have completed returns). This doesn't include taxes for 2012 (decedent worked as a 1099). Obviously the estate is insolvent. Question: Might this estate be administered or probated from its assets without out-of cost expenses to immediate family, or does the IRS take all before all else?
The probate code says government first. However, in my experience you can probate the estate and pay out costs of administration, including administrator's fees, before paying taxes. Having said that, this sounds like a small estate so I am not sure it would be worth the hassle. I encourage you to find an experienced attorney to run all the facts by. Good luck. -John
Costs of Administration can be paid prior to paying the government. I guess what you need to decide is whether or not the gain is worth the work. A $25K estate is only worth $1,000 in fees. I doubt it you could hire an attorney to help you because there's lots of work. The son is not going to get anything if the facts stated are correct. The Administrator may be able to negotiate with the taxing authority, but in today's economic climate the government isn't going to be open to negotiation. The Administrator would also need to file the current taxes. The costs associated with the probate are paid from the assets, the family would be able to be reimbursed. The assets should be left alone if there's not going to be a probate, so that no personal liability attaches.
I agree with John. In addition, the one thing I would absolutely advise you not to do is "take the money and run." Doing so will more than likely open you to personal liability from the IRS for the amount of debt. If you act pursuant to a court order in the Probate you will have protection.
I am sorry for your loss. I agree with John and Charles. The Probate code provides that all taxes must be paid prior to distributions. However, if your brother did not file his 2010 and 2011 taxes, these amounts indicated in the correspondences may not be accurate. When a taxpayer fails to file a return, the tax authorities will send out correspondence with their estimate of the taxes owed. These estimates are usually based on prior years' filings or 1099s etc., but do not usually include all possible deductions or credits. So, there may be a significant difference between the taxing authorities' estimates and what actually is due. If you have retained a tax profession to prepare the returns, this has probably already been explained to you. If you have not done so, I would strongly recommend that you consult with either an enrolled agent or CPA.
Because the estate assets are less than $150,000, it is possible to collect the account funds using the Small Estate Affidavit or Declaration and certified copies of death certificates. However, if you choose to proceed under such an affidavit, you should place all funds into an account for the estate until the issues with the IRS and Franchise Tax Board are sorted out. As has been stated, you do not want yourself or other heirs to become personally liable for these taxes. As John has advised, there are procedures available through the Probate Court which would allow administration costs, including administrator fees etc., to be paid prior to the taxes. But, as has been pointed out, the size of the estate might make this cost prohibitive.
If you have additional questions, you can add that to the "comments" section or you can email me directly. I am located in San Diego and would be happy to speak with you, as well.
You need court costs as the retainer for probate, not a part payment on the attorneys' fees. I suggest you talk to a good accountant or a tax attorney and ask what the possibilities are for settling the tax issues with the IRS and FTB so that there will be some funds remaining to distribute to the son. You will need to dissolve the S Corp and marshal the assets. You don't want to do this informally because those who accept the assets will find that the liabilities may follow.
In California the first to get paid is the executor and the attorney, then taxes. This is the public policy because there needs someone to carry out the probate so that at least some taxes get paid. In CA probate executor fees and attorney fees are statutory and are based on a percentage of the gross value of the estate. So even if there is significant debt or taxes due, then the executor fees and attorney fees can still be significant. You just need to find an attorney who understands all of the probate rules.

If your site is hosted in the European Union (or your target audience is in the EU) and you use cookies on your site, then by law you must offer some form of consent message to visitors.
Using a content management system (CMS) helps stay on the right side of the law, and our CMS offers several different options for dealing with cookies. You probably want to stay on the right side of the law, but don't want to frighten off your visitor with unnecessary warnings, right? So here's how.
To follow the letter of the law, your website needs to gain prior consent from your website users before setting cookies.
There are some exceptions to that, for example, that cookies that are essential to the working of your site can be excluded; but nevertheless you need to make visitors aware of the use of such cookies.
Depending on the nature of the cookies being used, and what those cookies are used for, you may be able to get away with a notice on your home page which basically states that by continuing to use the site, visitors are implying their acceptance of your site's cookies. (At least, that is how the UK ICO sees things, though other European countries take a slightly different view).
So effectively you have a choice between "explicit consent" and "implied consent".
The options for cookie consent can be found under Administration -> SIte Settings -> Cookies.
There are three different policies:
This is the default option:
All cookies that your site uses will be placed on a visitor's computer straight away, and visitors will not see any warning on the site that they have been placed.
This option is for you if you don't want to use the consent system; if you're not addressing an EU audience, your site isn't hosted in the EU, or if your site doesn't set any cookies.
Session cookie set by the Apache / PHP web server count as essential cookies, and don't store or pass on to another site any personal information about a user, so if your site only uses these you can use this option.
In Tribiq CMS 6.0.5 you can use the implied consent system, go to your Site Settings and set the cookie policy like this:
Visitors arriving on the site's home page will see a banner at the top of the first page that they visit:
This message will go away if they click the "Continue" button, or if they visit another page within the site. Visitors will only ever see the message once, unless they clear their cookies, use a different browser, or visit your site on a different machine.
Any cookies that your site uses will be placed on a visitor's computer straight away; the CMS will not wait for them to press the "Continue" button.
You can set the site to require explicit consent like this:
The visitor will be shown a different message, this time with both Accept and Reject buttons:
The message will not disappear (even if the visitor navigates to a different page) and the CMS will not set any cookies until the Accept button is pressed.
Explicit Consent has the disadvantage that scripts that use cookies cannot run immediately; this may cause problems for some tracking programs (for example, Google Analytics), as the first page-view and the referrer information are lost.
Any HTML Snippets, Head Slots or Foot Slots that you have marked as setting cookies will also not display until cookies are accepted.
The cookie regulations only apply to sites that are for the general public, so that if you have a members' area on your website you can require that your users accept cookies when entering this area.
Even so, it is a good idea to inform the user of the use of cookies on the registration and login pages.
You may wish to put further cookie-related controls on your site. Here's a simple Plugin for our CMS that allows users to see what their opt-in status is, and which allows them to change it:
If you are writing a Module that sets a cookie and you wish to add support for the Explicit Consent option, then you may do so using three API functions.
You can use the canSetCookie() function to check if the visitor has given permission to set cookies. If they've not yet done so, you can also use the hideCookieConsent() and requireCookieConsent() functions to control whether the consent message should be shown.
The information given here is not legal advice. For more information, see the ICO's page on cookie regulations, or contact me.

At the end of October, the Illinois Supreme Court Commission on Professionalism announced the creation of a formally recognized mentoring program that recruits experienced attorneys to mentor newly admitted lawyers. This program comes after the experienced gained from a similar voluntary mentoring program started in 2011 in the 17th Judicial Circuit.
Newly admitted lawyers have not generally received much practical and clinical experience while in law school. Also, the intensive preparation for taking the bar exam, consumes most of their time upon graduating. The timely guidance and instruction by an experienced attorney can significantly enhance their transition into practice. Legal, practical and ethical issues should all be addressed.
The Supreme Court has made a change in the rules( Rule 795(d)(12) ) covering Continuing Legal Education (CLE) to help motivate new and seasoned attorneys to participate in the program. Each participant can receive up to six hours of professional responsibility credit for successful completion of the new program. There is a structured mentoring relationship established with documents and aids developed for guidance. However to provided needed flexibility, the program is administered by local organizations.
"By building relationships between new and experienced lawyers, experienced lawyers pass on fundamental skills and core values of professionalism essential to the practice of law at the highest levels of professionalism."

WASHINGTON (ABC News) -- House Majority Leader Eric Cantor will not mount a write-in campaign and will step down as majority leader, sources tell ABC News.
Even if he was able to pull it off — a long shot — he would never be elected Majority Leader. He hopes to serve through July. However, a leadership election could happen before that.
Being a back-bencher isn't appealing to him. And losing another campaign isn't either, these Republicans close to Cantor say.
Cantor will announce his plans at a 4 p.m. meeting of the House GOP on Wednesday.

Time is running out for the Department of Health and Human Services.
It has until Monday to clean up its food stamp backlog, or risk losing federal funding.
DHHS says the backlog has dropped more than 92 percent since late January, and they plan to work with counties through the weekend to finish other cases.
The state says medicaid applications in October slowed staff down, worsening the backlog. And sending state workers into counties to monitor work flow this week was a big factor in solving the problems.
The state hopes to finish the process Sunday evening.
DSS director Wayne Black told WNCN, improving functionality at the county level continues to be a learning process, and he hopes the faster service will continue past the USDA imposed deadline.
"We wanted to get this done, regardless of a federal threat," said Black.
Delays with NC FAST began after a software update went out July 15, leading to backlogs in the counties that handled the applications, according to officials. Counties also determined NC FAST didn't work well with a certain Internet browser.
The state agency also is still working through problems with the Medicaid billing system called NC Tracks, which came online in July.

Kourtney Kardashian has put her foot down when it comes to Scott Disick's dream. The NY Daily News reported on Tuesday, Feb. 25, that Kourntey has firmly raised her objection to Scott opening up another restaurant.
The "Keeping up with the Kardashians" couple recently dined with restaurateur Chris Reda at Indochine in New York City. Scott was overhead telling Chris that he wants to open another restaurant with him.
"Kourtney interrupted, saying, 'Hell no' to Scott," said a witness.
After dinner, the three went to club Up and Down and Kourtney went off for some late-night karaoke with friends.
Kourtney's reluctance for Scott to open a restaurant is understandable since Scott and Chris's previous restaurant, Ryu, failed. Not even publicity from "Keeping up with the Kardashians" could keep the place afloat, as diners complained about high prices, skimpy portions and bad service. Seems as if Scott needs to remember that not everyone has money like the Kardashians!
What do you think of Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick as a couple?

Sony says goodnight to PSP Extended Life Battery Kit {Engadget}
Aug 9th 2008 7:42PM Honestly, I see a lot of people giving Sony crap for their policy on homebrew on the PSP, and I'm not sure they necessarily deserve it, since a main use of things such as the M33 firmware (at least for me) is running ISO's. But then again, we've seen people like Dark-AleX who are constantly pushing the boundaries of what the PSP can do. I'm not really sure what this had to do with the battery now that I think about it...

Microsoft On Iphone: You're On Your Own
Microsoft chairman Bill Gates said in an interview with German media that Microsoft will not launch a product to directly compete with the Apple Iphone.
"No, we won't do that. In the so-called smart phone business we will concentrate solely on software with our Windows Mobile program. We have partnerships with a lot of device manufacturers from Samsung to Motorola and this variety brings us significantly more than if we would make our own mobile phone."
Smart move. While the Apple Iphone has been a raging success, being in the hardware business is tough and Microsoft knows that. Instead, they can concentrate on improving the Windows Mobile experience to make it more user friendly. The operating system on the Iphone is superior to Windows Mobile, so updates to Windows would be welcomed.
The good news is that Microsoft is working on Windows Mobile 7. This new smart-phone OS is going to do something the Iphone can't – interaction via gesture. It will have full touch-based navigation as well as motion gesture controls. This means you can control certain things on the phone by doing things like shaking it, twisting it, etc. According to a story on Mobile Business Magazine:
The new Windows Mobile 7 is designed to be used on devices with touchscreen only, several keys, full QWERTY keyboards, and devices without touch screens. The touch-only devices are specifically referenced as "iPhone compete" in the leaked document.
Interesting. So, Microsoft isn't going to compete hardware-wise with the Iphone, but don't count them out and declare Apple the winner here. Microsoft is working on their answer to the Iphone, and by partnering with other companies they can extend their reach into the phone market much more than Apple can.
Iphones. Windows Mobile phones. Android-powered phones. 2008 is shaping up to be interesting when it comes to mobile.
Source: ComputerWorld.
One response to Microsoft On Iphone: You're On Your Own
Freddi January 12th, 2008 at 2:56 pm
They best way for Microsoft to compete is WORK FASTER. They are slow with new products and lack originality in their implementation.
They should consider a phone in the game category. Make the Zune play XBox games with phone capability for XBox Live.
Enter the phone market via the backdoor. Heavily promote it as a game device, then sell it as a phone. Many might buy it for the phone alone since it offers games, music, and videos.

The following account was given by Gladys Stuart in the National Studies Journal, Vol. 1, No. 1 January, 1973:
Black cakes laden with fruit were baked weeks in advance and saturated with rum to keep them moist. The market came alive with poultry: chicken, ducks, and turkeys. The housewife's wit was strained not to buy too soon nor too late. If she waited until too late, the commodity might be sold out or the prices might have increased. On the other hand, if she were to buy too early, she had to spend many wakeful nights protecting her birds from fowl thieves, possums, and charley prices. Some families bought a small pig. And there was a variety of game meat: deer, armadillo, and gibnut.
Then two days before Christmas the baking and cooking began. White cakes, tarts with sorrel jam, creole bread and buns were all baked in a large pot on a fire hearth. The ham was boiled, the turkey and duck were roasted, and the chicken and game meat were stewed in luscious brown gravy. And of course, the rice and beans had to be flavoured with generous bits of ham skin. Everything had to be finished by Christmas Eve night.
Vendors increased during the Christmas season to cater to out-of-town buyers. Creole bread and buns and fried fish were the most popular, followed by powder buns, trifle, and conch fritters. For those with a sweet tooth there was sweet potato pudding, stewed fruits such as papaya, pumpkin, and guava, and of course tableta, cut-up-brute, ginger lee, dumps, and strech-me-guts. Restaurants did a brisk business with cow foot soup and conch soup.

You may have no trouble walking, taking a shower, or even changing clothes. But for people with diabetes or arthritis, these simple daily activities can become hard to do — even more so if they suffer from both conditions. A recent study found it's not uncommon for people to have this disabling duo.
In a recent study in the journal Diabetes Care, researchers analyzed three years' worth of data from an annual national health survey. They focused on questions related to diabetes and arthritis. They discovered that nearly half of people with diabetes also had arthritis. What's more, a majority of those with diabetes reported having problems with daily activities because of arthritis symptoms.
What links these two distinct diseases? The answer may be related to why they develop in the first place. For instance, people with type 2 diabetes and arthritis tend to be older. Osteoarthritis results from the gradual wear and tear of joints over time. As we age, we also lose muscle and gain fat; we generally don't move as much either. Type 2 diabetes plagues people who are overweight and less active.
Being overweight or obese also stresses a person's joints. Plus, it affects how well the body absorbs glucose, a natural sugar made by the body as it breaks down food for energy. Too much glucose in your blood can lead to diabetes.
One recent study points to another theory: Diabetes may actually be an avenue to arthritis. Investigators followed the health of nearly 1,000 adults for 20 years. After factoring out age and weight, researchers found that those with type 2 diabetes were prone to osteoarthritis. In particular, they were two times as likely to suffer from severe cases of the joint condition, requiring a hip or knee replacement.
People with diabetes are at least 50 percent more likely to develop a disability in their lifetime. Add in arthritis, and the problem may only worsen. Why? A lack of physical activity. People with diabetes or arthritis are less physically active than those without either condition. But nearly one-third of those with both diseases don't exercise at all.
Physical activity is a valuable tool in preventing problems from both arthritis and diabetes. Exercise can help people with arthritis by reducing joint pain. It also keeps joints flexible and improves overall range of motion. Some of the best activities for arthritis include walking, biking, and swimming.
For those with diabetes, physical activity can help keep blood sugar levels under control. It can also prevent diabetes complications, such as heart disease and high blood pressure. Of note, too: Exercising regularly can help people with type 2 diabetes maintain a healthy weight. That can make it easier to manage the disease.

Buyout plan 'grossly undervalues' Dell: shareholder
Buyout plan 'grossly undervalues' Dell: shareholder
Southeastern Asset Management, which claims to hold 8.5 percent of Dell shares on behalf of clients, said it would fight the proposal and noted its objections to the deal in a letter to the board of directors, also filed with US securities regulators.
"We are writing to express our extreme disappointment regarding the proposed go-private transaction, which we believe grossly undervalues the company," the letter said.
"We will not vote in favor of the proposed transaction as currently structured.
"We retain and intend to avail ourselves of all options at our disposal to oppose the proposed transaction, including but not limited to a proxy fight, litigation claims and any available Delaware statutory appraisal rights."
Dell unveiled its plan to go private Tuesday in a $24.4 billion deal, giving founder Michael Dell a chance to reshape the former number one PC maker away from the spotlight of Wall Street.
The company said it had signed "a definitive" agreement to give shareholders $13.65 per share in cash -- a premium of 25 percent over Dell's closing share price on January 11, before reports of the deal circulated.
The move, which would delist the company from stock markets, could ease some pressure on Dell, which is cash-rich but has seen profits slump, as it tries to reduce dependence on the slumping market for personal computers.
The plan is subject to several conditions, including a vote of unaffiliated stockholders.
The letter from Southeastern said the deal "represents an opportunistically timed bid to take the company private at a valuation far below Dell's intrinsic value."
Southeastern said the value of Dell's assets and cash on hand suggests "a total corporate value approaching $24 per share" without taking into account Dell's growth prospects.
"By any objective measure, (the buyout offer) is woefully inadequate," the letter said.
The buyout deal calls for a "go shop" period to allow shareholders to seek a better offer.
Board members could implement a different plan, including a "Dutch auction" that would allow shareholders to sell back their stock at various prices, according to the letter.
It said another possibility that has not been considered would be to sell some of Dell's business units separately.
"We are concerned that given the participation of Michael Dell in this transaction, that a traditional go shop process is not sufficient to ensure that the company receives superior offers," the letter said.
The buyout plan also calls for a $2 billion loan from Microsoft along with financing from by Bank of America-Merrill Lynch, Barclays, Credit Suisse and RBC Capital Markets.
Analysts have said the deal may give the company a chance to regain some footing in a market in which smartphones and tablets are overtaking laptop and desktop computers.

i hate hanging out with my brother and his girlfriend because it always make me feel how truly alone i am.
i don't know if there's just something wrong with me or what, but this girl always flies solo. and for once, for once in my whole life i actually kind of don't care about it. i'm at a point in my life where like, i want to do things for myself.
maybe this is one time that i've lied to myself enough so i'm trying to actually convince myself i don't need someone, but i don't know - i feel invincible, for right now.
and i don't hate it.

A Delaware pediatrician who has appeared on national television to discuss his research involving near-death experiences with children is charged with endangering the life of his own daughter, who told investigators she was subjected to waterboarding.
Dr. Melvin Morse and his wife, Pauline, were charged with several felony counts Tuesday after their 11-year-old daughter told investigators her father had subjected her to "waterboarding" several times by holding her face under a running faucet.
Waterboarding simulates drowning and it has been used in the past by U.S. interrogators on terror suspects. Many critics call it torture.

Doubly Agreed. Otherwise, just how _WOULD_ you install a CDROM drive to
install Red Hat from?
>> Would it be a SCSI-II Fast or Wide HD that I would need, I don't know
>> what the difference is between the two.
>SCSI-II Fast, *not* Wide, as the builtin controller is not capable of Wide.
I disagree Jay. If he can get an Ultra or Wide (or both) drive it will still
work, will just need a cable adapter. Wide drives are downwardly compatible
with narrow, and Ultra is also downwardly compatible. At the price they are
getting to now, there is little sense in buying older technology. The drive
just _might_ outlive the UDB for him...

Last night I decided to take a shower. Since I usually let my hair air dry, but I was ready to hit the bed, I scrunched in some Aveda Be Curly curl enhancer cream, and put my hair into some pin curls to sleep in. Here's the result:
I divided my hair down the middle and then divided each section into 3 parts. Curling the hair around my fingers from the bottom up I used 2 bobby pins in an X shape to secure each section to my head.
The morning after:
I took the pins out and combed through the ringlets with my fingers.
I have naturally wavy/curly hair so I decided not to use hair spray to set the curl as it will usually hold all day in loose curls.
I was bored and looking at Pinterest today, and decided to follow through on one of my many pinned DIY tutorials.
The high-low skirts are pretty popular right now, and last week while competing at the West Georgia Idol competition there was a girl that wore a really cute maxi-dress version.
I was trying to imagine doing this to any of my skirts in the closet and just couldn't see it. Then I remembered a skirt I NEVER wear…a white knee-length linen skirt with an extra long elastic top from a line Sarah Jessica Parker put out a few years ago called Bitten. Perfect!
What you need:
There are two layers of linen so I started with the bottom layer. With fabric scissors cut a low "U" shape from side seam to side seam. I took a light colored pastel stick and traced my flared U on the bottom layer and made a cut. Leave about 1" for the hem (if you intend on hemming it.) I tried it on and made some corrections, then traced a flared U on the top layer and made another cut.
I adjusted and lined up the cuts as much as I felt necessary and trimmed excess fabric. I decided not to hem the skirt as it looked fine as it was.
I wasn't sure how I felt about it until I showed my boyfriend. He said I reminded him of Marilyn Monroe in it, and that he really liked it. Hopefully my girlfriends approve as he never disagrees with more skin showing.
I think it could be a little shorter to be more dramatic. When I do end up hemming it then I can play with the length. Anyways, this was a really easy way to take a boring skirt and alter it into something modern!
So I found a tutorial on coloring your hair with pastels on my best friend's Pinterest page last week, and today I decided to try it out.
I happened to find some chalk pastels in my craft tub while looking for paint brushes the other day, and today I swiped some light blue on my hair to see if the color would show…it didn't. So I grabbed a bright red ran it under water and colored some of my naturally red hair, and BAM! It colored my ends with a very pigmented red color!
So I went a little crazy and picked a royal blue, and turquoise color to go with the red and went to town. I set the colors with a flat iron and some hair spray. I also made sure to take a paper towel, and making a pony tail with my other hand, swept the paper towel down my ends to remove excess chalk.
Try this! Show me pictures!
I woke up this morning with an urge to find some American flag shorts for the 4th of July festivities happening this week. After searching the internet for a pair I could buy locally, I decided to look up tutorials instead. I have some plain cut-off shorts that I wear around the house and some pastel dye sticks for fabric so I got creative.
I cut out a stencil from a cereal box, and used masking tape to mark my stripes:
I then started stenciling stars onto the fabric. I had to do about 3 layers to get the white to come across.
Next, I colored in the red stripes. I had to do 2 layers for it to stand out.
After coloring the shorts with the pastel dye sticks, I laid a piece of parchment paper over the shorts and pressed them with an iron to seal the dye. I had to reapply the white and iron lightly again because some of it faded with the first set.
