The hiring process can at times be strenuous as you try to find the best employee for the job vacancy you're trying to fill. However, if you use the right and effective hiring strategies, you will get a perfect match for the job without much struggle. Below are key tips and guidelines to help you hire the best employee for the job effortlessly. Identify a Specific Source Identifying the best source for your employees nearly halves the workload of hiring. So assess the source that has given you the best-fit employees for the previous job positions you've filled. The source could be a platform on the web, a recruitment agency or an individual. Otherwise, do research and identify a potentially good source that you will be using. For example, if you want to use a recruitment agency, assess the recruitment company's offer to see if they cover recruitment in your area of interest. Identifying a specific source that you will be using to get new recruits makes work easier because over time your provider will have an in-depth understanding of your business. Script an Ideal Job Description The right job description will help you attract the right applicants for your vacancy. Make sure that the job description has the relevant skills and responsibilities only, since overly long lists of responsibilities and skills can put off some of the most qualified applicants. So if a certain item on the list is not vital, don't include in the job description sheet. For example, responsibilities that can be communicated to applicants in the job interview are best left out of the job description sheet. You may want to consult your employees or a professional from a recruiting agency on how to identify irrelevant items in your job description. Consider Your Interns It's helpful to consider your interns as potential candidates for job vacancies available in the company, especially if you hardly hire interns. Interns have first-hand experience of how your company works, and this means that the orientation process in the new job will take a shorter duration. Also, you will be able to assess the interns previous performance in the company based on their behavior, attitude, strengths, and weaknesses. This process will help you identify the best-fit intern for the job based on your needs. Using the right recruiting strategies can lessen your hiring process workload significantly. The above-mentioned tips can help you fill a job vacancy available in your company...read more
Factories are designed with efficiency and safety in mind. One of the biggest safety hazards within a manufacturing setting involves noise levels. High levels of noise can lead to a variety of health issues for employees, so this problem requires the services of an acoustical consultant. An acoustical consultant will inspect a factory or any type of manufacturing setting and offer recommendations that are required. Many of the noise regulations are mandated by law. This means that it can be beneficial for you to try cost effective methods for lessening noise levels to the satisfaction of an acoustical consultant. Ductwork It is possible to lessen the amount of noise by making sure that all ductwork is fitted with silencers. There is quite a bit of noise in a factory setting that is known as airborne noise that comes from ductwork. This can be minimised by lining the last bend in the ductwork with a type of material known to absorb sound. This can be anything from rockwool to fiberglass material. This duct vibration and sound production will be lessened through using lining on the bends within the ductwork. Drop Fan Speed One of the main culprits of noise within a factory can be linked to fan use. Fans have the ability to produce high amounts of noise, especially if they are on the highest setting. Lowering sound production within a factory can be made more attainable by lowering fan speed by one setting. Changing the control systems or re-setting the dampers can allow the fans to produce much less noise. Replace Nozzles Changing the type of nozzles being used in manufacturing equipment including hoses injectors can help to reduce noise levels. Efficient nozzles are different and are not made from copper pipe outlets. Not only are noise levels reduced by more efficient nozzles, but they also require the use of less compressed air, which is the main culprit of the noise within this setting. Vibration Isolation Pads It is possible to reduce the transmission of vibration and sound by using vibration isolation pads. Securing these pads properly is the key to getting the most vibration reduction. It is common for the bolt to short circuit the pad, but this can be avoided by simply placing additional vibration isolation pads underneath the bolt heads. The bolt heads are designed to keep the pads in place, but the vibration pads need to be properly secured. There are different types of rubber that can be used to cut back in noise production most effectively depending on the type of factory where they are being...read more
Preventive maintenance is a very important factor in determining how long a roof stays performing its role of keeping the elements out of your home. It is therefore very important to do everything possible to maintain the structural integrity of the roof over your home. This article discusses some of the things you can do to keep your roof from collapsing. Monitor the Roof's Condition Each roof has a finite lifetime that is estimated by the manufacturer. It is important that you begin having the roof inspected more regularly when it nears the end of its useful life. For instance, you can have it inspected twice each year when it reaches half of its expected lifespan. These regular inspections are necessary because that roof may begin deteriorating rapidly, so you need to watch its condition and take remedial action when defects show up. An example of a defect could be cracking or sagging of the roof membrane. Safely Remove Any Added Weight on the Roof The structural integrity of roofs is adversely affected by any added weight that remains on that roof. For instance, if water pools on the roof and remains there for long, it may freeze during cold weather and exert excessive weight on the roof. This may cause the roof to sag or begin leaking. Remove any standing water or accumulated snow so that the roof does not have to carry any unnecessary load. Avoid Altering Roof Designs or Purposes A common cause of catastrophic roof failure is modification of roof structures without involving the expertise of a structural engineer. For instance, roof beams may be drilled in order to run electrical wires. Such an act can reduce the weight bearing capability of the beams, and they may collapse under the weight of the roof. It is advisable that you enlist the help of a structural engineer if you want to perform any modification of your roof or any roof structure. Prune Overhanging Trees Impacts such as those that occur when a tree branch falls onto a roof can cause that roof to collapse. Avoid this eventuality by removing or pruning all trees that are close to the roof of your home. Roof problems can kick start a domino effect of other problems, such as electrical accidents that can cost you your home or life. It is therefore very important that you take all precautions possible to maintain the integrity of the roof. You can consult a structural engineer from a company like Jeffrey Hills and Associates if you are unsure about what additional measures to take in order to protect the roof over your...read more
Your kid wants a bit of extra cash but isn't old enough to have his or her own job, and you could use some extra spending money as well. If this sentiment describes your situation, you should consider helping your child start a small family business. Operating a family business gives you the chance to spend time together, learn a few new things and hopefully turn a profit. Here are five businesses you can easily help your child start. 1. Scrap Metal Collector Collecting scrap metal is especially fun for someone who likes the hunt of "shopping". In order to operate your family business, you and your child simply watch online ads for appearances of free metal-based items. Old bike frames, broken grills, trampoline frames, old hardware and a range of other items are perfect to collect. Once you see the ads, collect the items together and take them to a scrap dealer. If you cannot find ads for metal items, you can look for aluminum cans and other recyclables in public garbage cans. 2. Repurposed Furniture Maker You can easily combine making furniture out of repurposed goods with your scrap metal collecting hobby. If you see any trash that has promise, take it home, and repurpose it. For example, take an old chest of drawers and turn it into a chicken coop, or take an old door and turn it into a table. 3. Crafter/Artist Just as you can repurpose old items with your kid and sell them, you can also make a range of other crafts for your family business. Let your kids' passions guide you, and work together making soap, paintings, gourmet sausages or any other handmade items. Then, sell those items at an online store or a farmer's market. 4. Lawn Service Provider If your kid prefers to be outside rather than inside crafting, consider starting a lawn service. Your child can mow the lawns, but you can use the strimmer on the edges and make sure your child is safe with the lawn equipment. 5. Childminder Many kids who are ten to twelve love babies but aren't really mature enough to handle them on their own. If your child is in this age range, consider operating a family business by creating a babysitting service with them. You can open a full scale daycare at your home, or you can provide the transport and the guidance while you help your kid babysit at someone else's house. Whether you and your child decide to sell scrap metal, make crafts or watch babies, you are likely to make some extra cash while operating your family business, and depending on your situation, you can either split it or let your child keep it all. You may want to consult with a family business expert from a company like Control Your Business to learn about how to report earnings, whether or not your child needs to pay taxes and other issues related to the business side of running a family business. ...read more
Research has linked air conditioning to obesity, and in light of that research, you may be wondering if it is possible to use air conditioning without getting fat. First of all, it is important to note that researchers may have found a correlation but not a causal relationship between air conditioning and obesity. Therefore, with the right strategies, you can easily stay cool without packing on the pounds: 1. Don't let your house get too hot After hearing the research that AC can make you fat, some people think it's a good idea to turn off or turn down their AC. However, turning down the AC makes your home hotter which can make you feel more lethargic and less active. Instead, keep the thermostat on a comfortable temperature so you can stay active. 2. Take advantage of the cool air to work out When outside temps get excessively hot, it makes it harder to hike, bike, walk or do other outside workouts. However, you don't have to go outside to exercise in the summer. Instead, take advantage of your home's relatively cool temps to work out. If you don't have an exercise bike, an elliptical or a treadmill, just find a free workout video online and get moving. 3. Consider dining al fresco Although hot air slows people down, it also tends to make them less hungry. In fact, that is one of the major complaints some people have about air conditioning. Allegedly, as the air conditioner cools down the air, it indirectly encourages people to eat more. If you are worried about the cool air making you overeat, the best way to avoid this is to dine al fresco. Put a table on your patio and balcony, cover it with a sunshade to make the area inviting and take your summer meals outside. If the critics are right, you won't eat as much because you are eating in the hot air, and you'll keep your trim figure. 4. Keep the house cool when you sleep Although the link between AC and obesity is still being explored, the link between lost sleep and obesity is firm. Not getting enough sleep disrupts your hormones in a way that can ultimately slow your metabolism and make you gain weight, regardless of how much you eat. So that you can sleep better, keep your house cool at night. Run the AC as needed, or if the nighttime temps are naturally cool in your area, turn off the AC and open the windows until the morning. Need help with your air conditioning? Contact a company like Beacon Air Services to learn...read more
A migration agent can help you to gain legal entry into a country, and for when you want to apply for permanent residency or citizenship. Because they charge a fee for their services, it may be tempting to forego their use when applying for a long-term visa or citizenship, and instead go through a government's website or other office to handle this process on your own. Before you assume that you can go without the services of a migration agent, note a few reasons why and how they can help you with the entire process: 1. Your circumstances may change during the application process Because applications for citizenship or permanent residency can take quite a while to process, your circumstances may change in that time. You may move, get married, change jobs, and so on. You may not realize which changes need to be brought to the attention of the government bureau in charge of your application, but a migration agent will know what notifications they need, and how to modify your application accordingly. This will ensure that your application is not held up due to these changes. 2. Migration agents will know what supporting information is needed When you fill out certain applications for long-term residency or citizenship, it's often not enough to simply provide information. Typically you need to provide supporting documentation and paperwork to prove certain claims, and they may need copies of certain paperwork for their own records. When filling out these forms, it can be difficult to know what paperwork will suffice especially if you are missing certain forms, or if the application uses terms and wording with which you are not familiar. A migration agent can ensure that your application has all the supporting documentation needed, to ensure the process is not held up or refused. 3. You may qualify for different types of visas Most countries offer a large number of visas to migrants; Australia, for example, has some 140 different visa options. You may be applying for one type of visa for which you're not eligible or that will make the process much more difficult, whereas applying for a different type of visa can be more affordable and easier on you. A migration agent will be more familiar with all the various types of visas that are available to you and which will make the process faster and easier, and which might result in a better outcome...read more

Divorce and Family Law: Lessons Learned From Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris's Marriage
Hugh Hefner and Crystal Harris were married on New Years Eve 2012. Hefner Is best known as the founder of Playboy Magazine and Harris was known as one of the models for the magazine.There are many lessons about divorce and family law that can learned from the events surrounding Hugh Hefner's latest marriage.
It was reported that Harris signed a prenuptial agreement three weeks prior to the wedding. A prenuptial agreement is a legal contract that allows parties contemplating a marriage to come rewrite marriage and divorce laws about their assets among other things. In most jurisdictions each side must have ample time before the marriage, in this case three weeks, and be represented by a lawyer to review the agreement. In Hefner's case a prenup is very appropriate given his specific situation.
The 60 year age difference between Hefner, 86, and Harris, 26 should be a reason for a prenuptial contract. When there is a wide age gap between two parties in a marriage, a prenup can help better suit the terms of the marriage to reflect that difference than state laws would. It can be expected that Hefner does not have too many years left and if he were to die, marital or community property owned may not be distributed according to his wishes his wishes that an agreement can correct.
The large business empire that Hefner owns is another reason a contract is appropriate. The Playboy Enterprises that Hefner has a large stake in and the annual income it brings could be up for grabs absent a prenup in the case of death or divorce. A prior agreement can help secure the continuity of the business unlike the the recent sale of the LA Dodgers that had to be sold in a divorce of the owner. Hefner can control the future direction of the business with an agreement.
A third reason a prenuptial contract is important in this case is that Hefner has children from previous marriages and an agreement can control how assets are distributed in the case of his death. Hefner can define ahead of time which assets will be excluded from his new wife in the event of his death. While Hefner may not be able to totally disinherit his new wife, he can control a large portion of his assets with a contract and make sure that his previous children receive the inheritance that he intends.

Top Tours & Activities in Berlin
German Tour: Parliament Quarter & Reichstag glass dome
Pergamon Museum Berlin Tickets
Berlin TV Tower Ticket
Top 10 things to do in Berlin
The history of Berlin has seen it broken and divided, fashioning a city that's nightlife and neighborhoods are as much of a draw as its bountiful museums and jarring architecture. Every corner has a story to tell, but here are a few worth starting with!
This holyland of 20's cabaret emerged as a Soviet showpiece in the Cold War. Central, accessible, and close to other key sights, Alexanderplatz is the perfect launchpad for a jaunt around town.
TV Tower
As the highest point in Berlin it can be seen from almost anywhere in the city. TV Tower tickets start at €13 for adults─a bargain for Berlin's best view!
Brandenburg Gate
Situated at the bottom of Unter den Linden, close to the Reichstag and Holocaust Memorial, the Brandenburg Gate is a monument to triumph, once in war, now in unity.
Germany's parliament is an icon of Berlin architecture. The modern glass dome crowning the Neo-Baroque building is open to visitors. From the dome of the Reichstag building you can experience an outstanding view of the city.
Government District
The Reichstag isn't all the Government District has to offer. At the north-eastern corner of Tiergarten Park, it's home to some of the best modern architecture in Berlin.
Madame Tussauds Berlin
Madame Tussauds is relatively new to the city but already has a colorful history. On opening day a visitor tore off Hitler's waxwork head! Only in Berlin!
Berlin Dungeon
See out a rainy day at the Berlin dungeon for a reminder of the city's nasty past. Large groups get generous discounts.
Potsdamer Platz
Once a post-war wasteland, Potsdamer Platz is now the spot for top-class hotels and film premieres (including the IMAX). The Berliner Philharmonie is just around the corner.
Known locally as Ku'Damm, this 2-mile boulevard forms Berlin's shopping district. KaDeWe─the continent's largest department store─marks its easternmost point near Wittenbergplatz.
In the historic Gendarmenmarkt the Berlin Concert House stands flanked by 2 cathedrals. Entrance to the German Cathedral is free, but the older French Cathedral costs €3 a ticket.
Planning Your Berlin Visit
When to go?
Unless you're averse to crowds, visit Berlin over the summer, when the city's relaxed street-life is at its most contagious. Include a Sunday to experience one of the bustling flea markets.
Where to stay?
Every Berlin neighborhood has its own character. Charlottenberg is relatively flash, with Mitte a trendier alternative. Prenzlauerberg is the city's café-culture capital, populated by young families. Schoeneberg is renowned for its gay clubs and bars, while Friendrichshain and Kreuzberg also provide plenty of nightlife options─most a little rough around the edges!
How to get around?
Berlin is covered by trains, trams, taxis, and buses. Train stations are largely unmanned with machines to buy tickets from. Many tourists mistakenly think the trains are free before being fined €60 by inspectors! The Berlin WelcomeCard covers public transport in Berlin and Potsdam for 2-5 days, and also provides discounts at many restaurants and attractions, including the Berlin Dungeon.

What People Are Saying About Berlin
A most moving and interesting day out in the bleak cold of Berlin
Excellent ! Cesar the guide did a splendid job during the tour. Highly recommend !
Nice place and very good explanations !!
A very nice visit and a very friendly guide with very useful and detailed explanations
Very good insight and knowledge of the Sachsenhausen memorial
Very good tour with our guide Francheska. Highly recommend it, very interesting insight into this period of history, amazing to be able to see and feel what went on with a knowledgable humble guide.
Very informative tour through the parliament quarter
Our tour guide was well informed and provided us with plenty of details, all in all it was a very interesting walk through the parliament quarter and we skipped the line to the Reichstag, which was of great advantage, especially for the low cost of the ticket.
Informative, sensitive, poignant, well delivered
Meeting point was easy to find, all guides were approachable and friendly. Our tour guide JJ was very clearly passionate about the subject matter, open to questions and very knowledgable. He focussed the day on the prisoners, their struggle & resilience & not the powers that were which we found very refreshing. He delievered the tour whole heartedly (not just going through the motions as we have found on other tours) with a sensitive approach & ensured everyone was looked after. JJ even ensured everyone knew which trains to get after the tour & directed each person accordingly. It was very, very cold but this just made the experience that much more insightful. We were in Berlin for only the 1 day and are very glad we incorporated this tour. A memorable & informative day. Thank you!!

|Background information
November 6, 1950
Baltimore, Maryland, U.S.
|Musician, composer, record producer, professor
|Accordion, cello, piano
Gil Goldstein (born 1950) is an American jazz pianist and synthesizer player who started on the accordion.
He began studying accordion at age 5, but later moved on to cello and piano. He studied at the Berklee College of Music and by 1973 was working with Pat Martino, Lee Konitz, and others. He started with the Gil Evans Orchestra in the early 1980s and also worked with Wayne Shorter. He has also worked in films including De-Lovely, where he performed "I Love Paris" and coached Kevin Kline, and in Little Buddha as an arranger.
He resumed doing occasional accordion work in the 1980s. The most notable of his accordion efforts in the 1980s might be when accompanying Michel Petrucciani and on his own. As an accordionist he toured with Richard Galliano in 2000, but also played piano on the tour.
During the 1980s and 90s he was a member of the group Elements.
Goldstein has also composed music for films including the 1994 film Radio Inside.[1] 1999's Simply Irresistible called for rousing big-band ballroom music which goes from source music to programmatic during the climactic dance scenes.

The Top 10 were revealed to be the ones below, which we can't help but question. First off, how come only one commercial was older than 2006? Secondly, really? Really?! These are your picks?

Handbook of Contemporary Psychotherapy: Toward an Improved Understanding of Effective PsychotherapyBy: Dr. Steven R. Graybar (author), William T. O'Donohue (author)Paperback
1 - 2 weeks availability
Description"The Handbook of Contemporary Psychotherapy" comprehensively describes the key constructs and key skills involved in the craft of psychotherapy.

This book will be of interest to both the experienced psychotherapist wanting to become even more effective by experiencing new ideas as well as a text for beginning students to better orient to the complexities of actual psychotherapy. It will be useful to all the major disciplines of psychotherapy: psychiatry, psychology, social work, psychiatric nursing, marital and family therapists, and more.

09:25 am - Refusing the bottle
So we were in the hospital last week. Stormy had an ear infection, which we were treating, but he wasn't eating well. Last weekend he nursed less, and on Monday and Tuesday he totally refused his bottles during the day. I called the pediatrician several times and they weren't that concerned until I finally forced an appointment and they weighed him. He'd lost a pound since Friday (this was Wednesday).
Our appointment was at 10:45 that morning. We were sent to the hospital for IV fluids right away, so I would guess we were admitted near noon.
Taking a baby in for an IV was about as awful as you think. Watching them trying to start an IV in a tiny baby who is already dehydrated was really terrible. They had to stick him (and dig and dig and DIG) many times. The nurses tried. The nursing supervisor tried. They finally called an anesthesiologist and he had to try twice before finally getting it started in Stormy's foot.
It took hours. I wanted to be with him, and I ended up helping hold him down. It was excruciating having him cry into my face. I could tell he felt betrayed. Why would Mommy let people DO that to him???
We stayed in the hospital all night and were not released until after lunch the next day. So we were there around 24 hours.
They brought in a crib, which was a horrific metal thing that looked like a cage and in which Stormbringer could not sleep. He'd cry, and then when he tried to get comfortable he'd choose a position where his IV was tugged too hard, and I gave up pretty quickly on that. He normally does not like to spend the night sleeping on me; I am mainly for naps. But he adapted and we spent the night in a tiny hospital bed in a very hot room, with me sleeping lightly for fear I'd somehow drop him or he'd squirm over the side. So relaxing.
They said his ear infection was pretty cleared up, but his throat was still red and he still had sinus drainage, which is apparently from a virus. They think his sore throat was keeping him from taking his bottles. Usually viruses run their course in about five days, which means he should be getting better now.
Well, he still won't take a bottle. He refused to take anything at Day Care, so they messaged me and I went over at lunch to nurse him. He nurses just fine. But I cannot be with him enough to keep him hydrated that way!
This weekend we're working on bottles. I spent quite some time this morning trying to get him to take one, and the problem (aside from his overall refusal) is that he's locking his tongue on the roof of his mouth. Finally I started to nurse him and when he got his mouth right I stuck the bottle in there and he took it. But he was nearly asleep because he was exhausted from the earlier battle of wills, so I'm not sure that counts. We'll see if he takes the next bottle any more easily.
The hospital staff were very nice. I had a private room, a TV with bad picture quality, and an IV that kept setting off the alarm because they wisely (no sarcasm) had it set to detect minute problems. Even though I had to call the nurses frequently, I was glad it was set that way to avoid hurting Stormy.
Pres Man was great. He drove back over during his break between classes and brought me food, then he came back after his last class with PJs and other stuff I needed (phone charger, book to read to Stormy, hairbrush, etc). He stayed with us a lot and I know he hates hospitals so I really appreciated it.
It's very difficult to have a child who is hooked up to an IV. He got bored because he could not move around much. He really wanted to grab that tube and yank on it. Just getting him positioned for nursing was tricky because I had to be careful not to kink or squish the IV tube. He managed to unhook himself a couple of times - it's supposed to screw in, but I think with all his (limited) moving and me putting him to the breast, it would get unscrewed. Then all it took was one good yank or kick and we were undone.
He threw his toys on the floor. I tried to be vigilant and I did make many amazing saves, but he eventually got past me. And I was NOT giving them back after they were on the floor at the hospital.
They gave him IV antibiotics twice for his ear infection, so now we don't need to finish what we were giving him at home. They also gave him dextrose and potassium. When we left, he was over a pound heavier than when we went in.
My work friend A came over to bring me my pump. I had left it at work, thinking I'd return after his appointment. She stayed with us for a while and gave Stormy a stuffed animal from the gift shop. She is so nice.
I'm still really concerned about his intake. I'm counting his wet diapers.
It is really cold here. Yesterday it was still in the 20s when I went to see Stormy at lunch time. It even kind of iced/snowed a little. I'm glad we got a fleece hat for Stormy before this stuff moved in.
If anyone has tips for getting a reluctant baby to relearn the bottle, that would be great. I really think he forgot how to do it. First he stopped because it hurt, and then he lost the skill. Maybe with my bait and switch today he'll get back on track, but I really worry about Monday.

I used to post a lot more cute or newsy type stuff here. I stopped because I started thinking I was spamming everyone with something they'd already seen. I lost sight of the fact that I like going back through my own journal and finding those things again.
So here is the White House's adorable response to the petition to build a Death Star.
And here is a more serious approach to actually sending humans to Mars.
I think if Pres Man and I were younger, we'd seriously be talking about Mars. I'm not sure how that would have played out, but I know he's always had an interest in it. I think I would miss the rest of the family too much to do it. I'm excited to see how it works out for whomever is chosen and get to go.

03:49 pm
I have decided to try to start planning at least one day ahead, every day. I used to be okay at this without really formalizing it, but I think the baby brain is hurting my ability to keep track of multiple things.
Today I decided to make a list of things I want to happen tomorrow, and then make a corresponding list of things I need to do today in order for tomorrow to go the way I want it to. We'll see if this system works for me. So far today I have taken a nice walk (we walked down to the new development and got lunch, then walked home), I made a grocery list based on meals for the week, we did the grocery shopping, my new pants are marked for hemming, and I have figured out which classes Pres Man and I would like to take from the hospital and what dates we think we'd prefer. I've printed out the form for those classes and will get it ready to mail tonight.
My cold, I'm hoping, may be on its last legs. I've been pushing clementines and orange juice, and trying to stay hydrated.
Still to do: hem the pants, do some laundry, pack my sister's box and get it ready for mailing, write out some thank-you cards, and put some stuff in the car tonight so I cannot forget it in the morning, like my coworker's Hunger Games book.
I wanted to get my haircut today, but I'm thinking that may not happen - it's getting late. Maybe that can be a tomorrow night thing.
I'm really, REALLY tired now. I might take a nap and then see how much I can get done when I wake up later.
Sep. 27th, 2012
09:02 pm
I'm so very tired. My BIL should be here any minute and I spent a lot of the past few days trying to make the house suitable for company.
We should really have company more often. Until we need to use the nursery as something other than an emergency giant closet in which to stuff things we have no idea what to do with. Eh, if that happens, we'll probably just fill up the guest room and stop accepting guests.
I cannot believe it's nearly October.
If my nieces get bored this weekend, I'm totally dragging out the Halloween decorations and putting them to work.
I'm really happy that tomorrow is Friday. It'll probably be a busy weekend, but it'll be good. I love seeing the girls. I cannot believe how old they are now. Both in high school!!
I did not know Aidan Quinn was going to be in the new Sherlocky show that I'm watching. I like it so far, though it reminds me a lot of the ends (multiple) of Clue where Tim Curry is explaining things at warp speed. lol

You've spent decades building a retirement nest egg, and now your career has come to an end. You've used a variety of tax preferential savings vehicles, including employer sponsored retirement plans and individual retirement accounts, or IRAs. You might have squirreled away some additional after-tax savings, too. Now you're retired and think there's nothing left to do other than enjoy your retirement.
Not so fast.
"Many variables impact tax planning for this group," says David McKelvey, CPA and partner with Friedman LLP. He sees retirees between the ages of 62 and 70, advising them to take advantage of tax optimization strategies to preserve the value of their nest egg.
Read on to learn about several tax-savvy retirement strategies that can help you hang on to your money longer.
Echo/Cultura/Getty Images
The U.S. tax system is a progressive one, with federal income tax rates ranging from 0% to 39.6%. While retirees, especially those with paid-off mortgages, may not need large amounts of income to sustain their lifestyles, they can protect their savings by minimizing income tax liabilities.
"Retirees should not leave room in the lowest tax brackets," says Waldean Wall, vice president of advanced markets for Allianz Life.
To take advantage of the opportunity to "top off your bracket," retirees should trigger taxable income equal to the amount of room left in their tax bracket. For example, a couple filing jointly with $40,000 of combined income falls in the 15% bracket, which tops out at $75,300. They can earn another $35,300 before the next bracket applies, not counting the standard deduction or personal exemptions, which would add room for another $20,700.
One strategy involves "anticipating required minimum distributions from retirement plans that could push them into a higher tax bracket in future years," says Wall. By taking distributions before age 70 1/2, more income can be legally shielded from potentially higher taxes when it's time to take RMDs. Plus the income could sustain the couple's lifestyle, enabling them to delay drawing Social Security until a later age, when benefits are larger.
However, McKelvey warns, such strategies should be done in concert with comprehensive investment planning.

Retirees should take advantage of preferential tax treatment given to long-term capital gains and qualified dividends. Long-term capital gains (i.e., the gains recognized when securities held for longer than one year are sold) are taxed at lower rates than ordinary income. Taxpayers in the 10% and 15% tax brackets are not subject to long-term capital gains tax at all -- their rate is 0%. Taxpayers in the middle tax brackets are subject to this tax at 15%, and those at the highest tax bracket of 39.6% will see long-term capital gains taxed at 20% -- roughly half of the ordinary income tax rate.
But it's possible to dodge even the lower capital gains rate. Retirees who plan to sell stock to fund their living expenses should determine whether a more favorable tax strategy could be employed. Instead of selling stock with significant untaxed appreciation that could trigger long-term capital gains tax, retirees could consider tapping funds that generate no taxes, such as a Roth IRA.

Retirees should pay particular attention to employer-granted stock held in their retirement plans, especially if the stock has risen in value. "Gain on employer stock is not included in taxable income when it is distributed in kind from a qualified plan as part of a lump-sum distribution that is not rolled over to an IRA," says Wall.
That means that after you separate from service, you can roll over the company stock into a brokerage account and the balance of pre-tax investments into an IRA -- all within the same year. This strategy is called "net unrealized appreciation." If you do this, you will have to pay tax on the stock's basis amount -- the value of the stock when you first acquired the stock from your employer. For example, if the collective basis is $20,000, you must pay tax on the $20,000 for the tax year you transfer the shares to a brokerage account. When you sell the stock, whether the next day or in 10 years, you pay long-term capital gains on the appreciation.
As long as the stock is not rolled over to an IRA, the taxpayer can take advantage of lower capital gain rates. However, Wall says retirees cannot realize an unlimited amount of tax-free dividends or long-term capital gains, so they should consult a tax specialist before selling the stock.

A 3.8% surtax for Medicare applies to net investment income of taxpayers with modified adjusted gross income, or MAGI, in excess of certain thresholds -- $200,000 for single taxpayers and $250,000 for married taxpayers filing jointly. These threshold amounts are not indexed for inflation.
Distributions from retirement plans, Roth IRAs, municipal bonds, grantor trusts and qualified annuities are not subject to the net investment income tax.
Net investment income does include interest, dividends, passive activity income, capital gains, rents, royalties and income from nonqualified annuities. "The surtax may apply to undistributed net investment income for certain trusts, as well," says Wall. For 2016, tax at the highest marginal rate applies to trust income exceeding $12,400.
Retirees should determine whether distributions during the year could raise a surtax problem. If so, the income needed to cover living expenses should be generated from assets that will not trigger the surtax.

A Roth IRA conversion occurs when a taxpayer converts assets from a traditional IRA, which holds tax-deferred assets, to a Roth IRA, which holds assets that have already been subject to income tax. At the time of the conversion, income tax will be due on the assets converted. Because the assets held in a Roth IRA have already been taxed, qualifying assets can be withdrawn tax free in later years. Qualifying assets include those that have been in the Roth IRA for at least 5 years.
Retirees can take advantage of this tax timing difference in various ways, Wall says. For example, if there is room in a lower or middle tax bracket, a taxpayer can convert pre-tax IRA assets equal to the amount of room remaining in those lower tax brackets.
Also, retirees can withdraw qualifying Roth IRA assets, instead of liquidating assets that trigger income subject to tax, to limit the amount of Social Security benefits subject to income tax.
"Conversions can be helpful with managing net investment income subject to the Medicare surtax, and the various tax bracket thresholds for future years," adds McKelvey.
Roth conversions are subject to special tax rules, so any retiree wanting to take advantage of this strategy should consult with their tax adviser.

Retirees who have accumulated serious wealth can use Roth conversions to reduce their exposure to estate tax. While 99.8% of estates won't have to worry about this tax, the top tax rate is 40% -- a substantial hit to heirs of the super-rich.
Currently, the estate tax exemption amount is $5.45 million. Traditional IRAs can be converted to Roth IRAs regardless of a person's income level, and the converted assets are not subject to estate tax.
"Because the money used to pay the income tax due on conversion is paid to the U.S. Treasury, that amount is no longer in the IRA holder's estate upon which estate tax could be due," says Wall.

Food Safety in a Global Environment: Based on a Common Culture of Prevention and Verification
<< FSMA Speeches, Statements, & Other Correspondence Main Page
China International Food Safety and Quality Conference and Expo
Shanghai, China
November 5, 2014
As prepared for delivery by
Michael R. Taylor
Deputy Commissioner for Foods and Veterinary Medicine
U.S. Food and Drug Administration
I want to begin by thanking our Chinese colleagues and the conference organizers for inviting me once again to this beautiful city and this important food safety conference. This city and this conference epitomize the international dimension and the spirit of partnership that I believe characterize today's food safety landscape. The food system grows more global and trade-driven every year, which means we grow more dependent every year on collaboration and real partnership, between government and industry and across national boundaries.
The truth of this from the vantage point of the United States is demonstrated by a few numbers. Overall, 15 percent of our food supply is imported from other countries, but this includes 80 percent of our seafood, nearly 50 percent of our fresh fruit, and 20 percent of our fresh vegetables. And last year, the U.S. exported a record $136 billion in foods, feed and beverages.
These numbers reflect consumer demand for a diverse and economical food supply year-round and the compelling economic logic of the global food system. But underlying these numbers is the strong and persistent expectation of consumers that the foods they buy will be safe, no matter where the food comes from.
Meeting that expectation is why the Food and Drug Administration has done so much over the last decade to elevate its international food safety presence and activity, and it's why I spent the last two days in Beijing meeting with FDA's food safety counterparts in the Chinese government as part of our continuing effort to strengthen understanding and collaboration between our food safety regulatory systems. We consider this ongoing dialogue between the United States and China to be crucial for enhancing food safety, public confidence, and trade between our countries – goals I know we all share.
It is fitting that I conclude my visit to China with this great conference, which brings together the diverse, global food safety community, from both public and private sectors. I often say that government doesn't make food and government can't make it safe. Instead, as everyone in this audience certainly understands, responsibility for food safety rests first and foremost with the food industry -- those who grow, process and market food. That is why you are here, and that is why my fellow regulators and I are here. We all have crucial roles to play on food safety, and we need to work together to be successful.
In that spirit, I want to take a few minutes to review the food safety paradigm we are implementing in the United States, the change it is requiring in how we at FDA do our work, and how our new paradigm affects our collaboration with the food industry and foreign governments.
FSMA's Prevention Paradigm
The food safety paradigm under which FDA is operating is mandated by the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) of 2011, and it is a familiar one to the international community. After all, the new U.S. food safety law is based on widely accepted international norms and practices that have been adopted by Codex and are being pursued by many other countries.
The paradigm is simple. We will achieve the best food safety results if we define in workable, science-based standards the approaches to managing food safety systems that we know are effective in preventing food safety problems AND if we achieve high rates of compliance with those standards.
Harnessing this paradigm to prevent foodborne illness is what FSMA mandates FDA to accomplish, in partnership with the global food safety community. And, if we are successful, we will have accomplished our goals of protecting food safety, strengthening public confidence, and facilitating trade in safe food.
FSMA's Prevention-Oriented Standards
We are addressing the first element of our food safety paradigm by developing seven major regulations, including ones addressing produce safety on farms, preventive controls in all food and feed facilities, and the food safety obligations of importers. These four most significant rules will be finalized in late 2015, with the obligation for industry to comply envisioned to begin in late 2016.
These rules will establish the critical regulatory framework for prevention of foodborne illness. They will be flexible and adaptable to the wide diversity of food operations we regulate. They will place a strong emphasis on the grower, packer, processor and importer understanding the hazards in their operations and implementing the measures that are effective to prevent or minimize them. These rules, backed up with guidance, educational materials and technical assistance, will make clear FDA's expectations for how industry can meet its food safety responsibilities under FSMA, and they will create the regulatory basis for ensuring there is real accountability for prevention.
Achieving High Rates of Compliance in a Culture of Prevention and Verification
While the conceptual framework is familiar and widely accepted in the food safety community, we all know that concepts and rules don't by themselves improve food safety. What matters is how they are implemented – how we together, as a food safety community, achieve high rates of compliance with food safety standards and are able to assure ourselves and consumers that we are doing everything we reasonably can to make food safe.
This is the essential second element of our food safety paradigm. It's about high rates of compliance with food safety standards, but it's about more than just complying with regulations in a formalistic way. It's about building throughout the food system a food safety culture:
- that wants to know what the hazards are so they can be prevented,
- that makes the business of food safety a central element of the business of making food, and
- that is able to verify internally and for the public that food safety is being protected.
Many farms and firms we regulate have had strong food safety cultures for years. Many are building them today, while many have a long way to go. FDA cannot create food safety cultures in food companies. That's up to them. What we can do is verify that standards are being met, which, under FSMA, is a shared responsibility of government and industry. And we can incentivize and reward strong food safety cultures by the way we conduct our inspection and verification work.
The Congressional Vision
In enacting FSMA, our Congress very much recognized verification as a central element of the prevention paradigm and assigned both industry and government important roles. For example:
- Verification is built into the preventive controls framework for food processors,
- Verification is a new responsibility of importers,
- FDA has new inspection powers and mandates aimed at verifying compliance with FSMA's standards, and, very importantly,
- Congress directed FDA to collaborate with our government partners in the United States and around the world to verify that food safety standards are being met.
FSMA's heightened focus on verification is by no means just a U.S. phenomenon. Its importance is recognized in Codex standards, in the regulatory and certification activities of many of our trading partners, and in the rapid advancement of private sector supply chain management practices in recent years.
Opportunities for Collaboration and Progress on Verification
So, one of the most important questions we are grappling with at FDA is how we can enhance our role in verification and strengthen our public and private partnerships to better assure consumers that our food safety systems are working.
We see great opportunity for enhanced collaboration on compliance and verification both within the United States and internationally. Let me close with a few examples.
First, in our domestic inspection and compliance program, our focus will be on achieving and verifying that private food safety management systems are working effectively to prevent problems. This is a shift from our historic focus on enforcement of adulteration standards. We will continue to act swiftly and forcefully when violations are putting consumers at risk, but we plan to focus our inspection teams on compliance and food safety outcomes as the best way to protect consumers and strengthen consumer confidence.
And, when we inspect, we want to be able to look holistically at a company's approach to food safety, including its management commitment and food safety culture. When firms get it right at that level, they are much more likely to get it right in their operations, and FDA can focus more of its effort on firms that don't demonstrate the same food safety commitment and culture.
Second, private verification and audit activities already play a central role in food safety systems, whether as part of a firm's verification of preventive controls in its facility or to verify a supplier's food safety practices. We value the role private audits can play when done properly. We thus believe we have common purpose with the food industry to ensure the rigor and objectivity of private audits, as well as to improve efficiency by reducing redundant or ineffective audits.
Closely related to the role of verification in our domestic food safety system is the role FSMA's foreign supplier verification program (FSVP) requirement will play in assuring the safety of imports. The principle here is that those importing food into the U.S. market have the primary responsibility to verify its safety. We have proposed that a foreign verification audit by a "qualified person" typically would be part of the program in certain high-risk situations. But what makes a person "qualified" for this purpose? And how do we ensure the objectivity and rigor of these audits? We know many in the industry are working on this, but I believe it is – and I know it must be – our common purpose to ensure the rigor and objectivity of audits throughout the global food system.
Finally, I can offer two important examples of our collaboration on verification with other governments: Mexico and China.
In July of this year, we announced in Mexico City our new Produce Safety Partnership with the two agencies in the Mexican government that oversee produce safety: SENASICA and COFEPRIS. This is a priority for both countries because of the large volume of produce traded across our common border and the importance of produce safety from a public health and public confidence standpoint.
We have worked well with Mexico for many years and share a strong public health purpose with our counterparts there. But FSMA is bringing new produce safety standards and greatly heightened demand for verification that standards are being met. To meet this demand, Mexico and the United States are building a true operational partnership on produce safety. As it evolves over time, this will include even more sharing of information, personnel and best practices, laboratory and other technical harmonization, and mutual reliance on each other's oversight work. It will also include a strong public-private partnership component.
Our important collaboration with China is at a different level of development, which is understandable given the greater physical distance and our different legal, regulatory, and technical starting points. In 2007, after the incident involving intentional melamine contamination of pet foods, FDA's parent Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) established a regulatory cooperation agreement on food and feed with China's General Administration of Quality Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine (AQSIQ). This agreement was aimed at improving each country's ability to judge whether food imported from the other meets the importing country's requirements.
We are committed to the success of this agreement and, working with our Chinese counterparts, we have made real progress in the exchange of regulatory and technical information, laboratory improvement and harmonization, training on U.S. practices for Chinese inspectors and food companies, and mutual understanding. This effort is aimed at enabling FDA to consider AQSIQ's oversight in making entry decisions for food shipments from China.
Key areas of focus at the time of the original agreement – low-acid canned foods, pet food and pet treats, and farm raised seafood – remain works in progress. The legal, regulatory and technical gaps between our systems are challenging, but we think they can be overcome with sustained effort. One thing we have learned is that we need more FDA presence in China to expedite the building of mutual understanding and confidence, which are the foundation for mutual reliance. Today, FDA has only four full-time China-based staff who focus on food safety issues, but we hope to increase that number to 12.
I'd like to close by saying that I can think of no better place to promote a common culture of prevention and verification than this conference in this country. As a global food safety community, we have the same purpose and face the same challenges. We all want food to be safe. We all want consumers to have confidence. And we all want trade to be unimpeded by food safety concerns.
I also think it's clear how we meet these challenges. None of us – in government or industry – can do it by ourselves. It's a food safety system. We all play crucial roles. To play them successfully, we have to work in concert to build a common culture, not only of prevention and verification, but of real collaboration and partnership.
Thanks again for having me here.
