Highlights of IRS Publication 5165: How to Electronically File ACA Information Returns for Software Developers and Transmitters
If you plan to file IRS Forms 1095-B and/or 1095-C then this post is for you and your IT department.
The IRS Publication (Pub) 5165 outlines the communication procedures, transmission formats, business rules and validation procedures for returns transmitted electronically through the AIR system.
As I read through the provisions of Publication 5165 I noticed a few highlights that could impact your business.
First, here is a high-level review:
1. There are now different levels for Transmitter Control Codes (TCC). When you request your TCC, you'll determine if you need an Issuer, Transmitter, or Software Developer.
2. There are prohibited and escaped special characters that could cause file rejection.
3. Once a Transmitter or Issuer submits their 1094/1095 file to the IRS, they will check it for threats. The IRS has 32 different fault codes for the file rejects.
4. AIR validates the transmission and return data. There are 8 different error prefixes that the IRS returns. The one that interests me the most is AIRTN. If you submit a file and receive an AIRTN error, that means the TIN and name do not match IRS records.
5. The IRS assigns a Unique ID for each form and is critical if you have corrections.
Why it's not that simple
After reading the highlights, you may think these are no big deal. For instance, determining your level of TCC should be fairly simple, right? Don't you just have to know if you are an Issuer, Transmitter or Software Developer? That may not be clear to everyone. You should of course know if you are a Software Developer so that is easy but are you an Issuer or a Transmitter?
Filing will not be the same as 1099
With XML files, special characters can be troublesome. The IRS has what they call Prohibited Characters. They can reject the entire file if you include a "#" or "–". Other characters, such as & ' " , must also be handled differently so your file isn't rejected.
If you include one of those characters, it must be "escaped". For example, if the company name in Box 10 on the form was Smith & Sons, the "&" must be coded as "&" to explain the ampersand. If the company name was Joe D's, then you would code it as "&apos" to account for the apostrophe.
The part that gets a little dicey is recognizing there are 32 different elements that can cause file rejection. It is highly recommended filers utilize the IRS testing period to assess your transmission and data. Don't wait until March to find out your file structure is incorrect!
And now for the big one…
The AIR system will return an AIRTN error for each form that contains a bad Name/TIN combination.
According to the Pub, the IRS expects the filer to provide a correction for the record. This doesn't necessarily mean you are required to send out more solicitations, but that might be your only way to avoid potential penalty for failing to supply the correct information.
Data correction is a huge undertaking. There are thousands upon thousands of "bad" Name/TIN combinations! While you probably know how many people you don't have a TIN for, what might surprise you is the large number of mismatches. There are situations where the SSN may be a digit off, or 2 numbers flip-flopped, or the name is a maiden or nickname.
In these cases, the IRS will return an AIRTN error and all you will know is that the name and TIN do not match the IRS records. In cases like this, you'd have to send out a mass mailing once you receive the notification on the bad forms.
But wait, there's more!
In addition to the data correction undertaking, the IRS also has rules about giving them too much incorrect data. For example, if the issuer Name and EIN on all of your records does not match the IRS records, then they will reject the entire file. The IRS also has a threshold and if you have numerous forms that have bad Name/TINs and the number exceeds the threshold, they will reject your entire file. What is the threshold number? That's an IRS secret.
Finally we have the Unique ID. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but you definitely want to be prepared. You can only reference that Unique ID once. When you send your original file, all records are assigned Unique IDs. To correct a form reference its Unique ID. When you send the correction in, the IRS gives you a new Unique ID for that record. If down the road you need to make another correction to that form, you need to reference the new Unique ID. Filers must ensure they track the Unique IDs and that they always capture the most recent information.
Companies that have an abundance of technical resources may not be too concerned, but for companies with thinly stretched resources and budgets, this could become a major headache.

There's teddy bears and high school rings,
And old photographs that mamas bring.
Of daddies with their young boys playin' ball.
There's combat boots he used to wear,
When he was sent over there.
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall.
There's cigarettes and cans of beer,
And notes that say: "I miss you dear."
And children who don't say anything at all.
There's purple hearts and packs of gum,
Fatherless daughters and fatherless sons.
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall
They come from all across this land,
In pick-up trucks and mini vans,
Searchin' for a boy from long ago.
They scan the wall and find his name,
The teardrops fall like pourin' rain,
Then silently they leave a gift and go.
There's stars of David and rosary beads,
And crucifixion figurines,
And flowers of all colours large and small.
There's a boy scout badge and a merit pin,
Little American flags wavin' in the wind.
And there's 50,000 names carved in the wall
50,000 names carved in the wall.

There's something strangely soothing (and satisfying) about Giants Software's latest agricultural sandbox adventure. It could have been the country tunes that gently wafted out of my tractor's radio, or maybe it was the soft droning sound my harvester made as I collected my crops. I didn't even mind that my first farm was a massive commercial failure, or that I made the rookie mistake of trying to expand my farming operations far too early. There was something about Farming Simulator 17 that resonated with me.
You may mock the idea of a game about the fine art of farming, but one thing that's undeniable is that Farming Simulator 17 is a serious simulator. Don't get me wrong, the game isn't perfect; it's an acquired taste. You could think of it as a thick slice of surströmming (fermented herring) on a thin slice of crispy bread. It may sound repulsive, but a few slices later, you're in gastronomic heaven.
This year's edition doesn't re-invent the wheel but it improves on what came before by delivering a competent upgrade to the franchise. It's still not the best-looking game on the consoles, but it's certainly a vast improvement on the last one. The various farm equipment (from vehicles, buildings to animals) show an impressive amount of detail, whereas the environment may seem a little lacking in some areas. There are two locations in the game: a sunny rural American town outfitted with diners and white picket fences, and a thoroughly depressing Russian obschchina (farming commune) – complete with rusty abandoned factories.
The core game can be played solo or with a friend (in co-op) mode. The game play remains unchanged from previous games. It boils down to a simple premise; it's all about maximising your time, surviving the economy, turning a profit through agricultural wizardry and repaying your bank loans. Sadly, the core gameplay doesn't change much between the two different locales. I was hoping that your chosen setting would have an impact on what you could grow or sell, or whether the local economy would dictate your choice of farm.
There isn't a story to play through, instead –in pure sandbox fashion- you make of the game what you will. Do you want to start a wheat farm? Go forth and cultivate your fields! Do you want to farm with cows or more to the point, do you want a dairy farm or are you merely providing meat to the local abattoir? You're the author of your own farming story.
This year's version sees several new additions. For instance, you can finally play as a female farmer, grow sunflowers and soya beans or try your hand at pig farming. Obviously, you'll need to keep your pigs fed, keep their pens clean, make sure they have water and bedding, and only once you fulfil all their needs, you'll reap the returns from the sows. After all, you reap what you sow!
There's very little (if any) hand-holding in Farming Simulator 17. It's the one part of the game that may confuse newcomers to the genre. The tutorials cover some facets of the game mechanics, but much of the game depends on trial-and-error. It is the one aspect of the franchise that I love, but I recognise that it's something that could be improved on.
Another addition to the franchise (especially for my fellow farming brethren and sistren on consoles) is mod support. At the time of writing, only the developer has uploaded downloadable add-ons, but the hope is that in time contributions from the game's wider community will add to the game.

I will give you a tour shall I? Apologies for the picture quality but my camera batteries were flat so I was recharging them for a few minutes then taking as many photos as I could then putting them back onto charge then photos and so on so the photos are not the best quality.
First the Kitchen section which is the first thing you see as you enter the shop
The Kitchen area needs a few new bits to fill it up.
Then the bathroom - Bedroom section, there was a nice mirror hanging where the heart picture frames are but a passer by came in and wanted to buy it so it went!
We then move to the Baby - Children's section
This is one of my favourites, all of the girls hanging items now are hung on the trellis and the boys hang on the ladder.
Now the Living room - Hallway section
This area really needs some new stock making for it but we have never had a defined area like this before, I really love the way this looks, the large unit was built with removable shelves so I could add or take away as I needed too, The log effect fire was from my old house and now sits on a 'Granite' slab, its MDF really painted Black and spattered with French Grey and Ivory paint then lacquered.
This is the corner to the right of the fire and the space were my Christmas tree will stand as it wall be visible both in the shop and the window display.
The counter area was vastly cut down and unfortunately my camera really died before I could take all of those pictures but here is my ribbon/craft and the wrapping paper stands both of which we lost moving the till area
I bought the bookcase for £4-00 from a car boot sale and painted it, it is now filled with baskets of ribbon, ric rac, buttons, felt etc
I bought the umbrella stand and revamped it to hold my wrapping paper.
And here is the workroom before and after
It took me another 2 hours to tidy the workroom once we had finished and although the shop still needs a few bits doing at least it can open this morning in its brand new state.
Well what do you think to the new shop?

More beneficial than driving, this fast-paced hike covers a relatively large expanse of Pittsburgh in a short period of time, and is the perfect way to experience this impending holiday season. At press time, 10 spots are left in the program; be advised that this is an advanced hike and not recommended for beginners.

Rochester Institute of Technology has been named a "Best Buy" school in the 2012 revised and updated edition of Fiske Guide to Colleges.
The guide has an "Index by Price" that groups public and private institutions into four price categories, from inexpensive to very expensive, but also suggests a number of schools that offer outstanding academics with relatively moderate prices. In 2012, Fiske designated 49 such institutions—24 public and 25 private—as "Best Buys."
All of the "Best Buy" schools fall into the inexpensive or moderate price category and have stellar academics ratings.
RIT is described as "strong in anything related to computing, art and design, and engineering. In the city built by Kodak, photography and imaging are among tops in the nation. RIT is devoted to undergraduates."

You Probably Need a Will, So Here's How to Have That Potentially Awkward Conversation with Your Family
Remember, if you die without a will, the state will determine who inherits
Lately I've been getting a lot of It Happened to Mes about fathers. Dead fathers mostly, but also beloved fathers. This is one of the few ways fathers are a part of my life, since I don't have much of a relationship with my own.
When I say that you probably picture some deadbeat who skulked out for cigarettes 20 years ago and propelled me down the worn path of poor sexual decision-making trod by so many fatherless girls. But no, he's sitting at home with my mother, probably happy in his arm chair with a stack of hunting magazines and a cluster of fishing rods for practicing his casts on commercials.
Their relationship is just fine. It's ours that's non-existent.
I don't know if I have the right phone number for my father, because I never call him and he never calls me. For a lot of years, I tried to force him to interact with me -- enlisting my mother to nag him until he sent me the occasional one-sentence email asking if I'd read some book. It was unsatisfying, and I eventually realized that looking for a real relationship with my father was like trying to buy apples from the hardware store. He just doesn't have them to give.
My mother tells me that when I was a baby, my father would come home from work on his lunch break just to rock me, barreling past her to my crib, so that she was offended a little that he didn't want to see her, only me. I can't imagine that man.
Maybe my father likes babies but not girls, or more likely, something happened, around third grade I think when my appearance begins to grow unkempt in pictures, the backgrounds darker and less pristine, the standards of behavior relaxed.
It's probably my dad's depression, the dark shadow that moved in. I know the dark shadow, I share it as an adult, so I can comprehend the way it curled around us, the way it wrapped my father in a dark cocoon, until we couldn't see each other anymore.
The truth is that my father was never there. He was an empty physical presence in my childhood -- a warm body in who couldn't speak or touch or express love. In group therapy, we are sometimes asked to do "family sculptures," in which we pose ourselves and other members of the group in living portraits of our family system. I am always on the floor, hands outstretched toward my father, who looks away, unnoticing.
For a few months, when my family was rocked by the confession and subsequent hospitalization of my Oxycodone-addicted family member, we all started to break through our denial and dysfunction, to come up into the sunlight like startled blinking moles.
My dad called me one day during that time period, and wanted to talk about his depression -- that he made a living through backbreaking physical labor for so many years because he needed that endorphin rush to feel normal, and that he feels he was "deficient" during the years my brother and I were children, before he was prescribed Zoloft and was able to go back to school and start a career at a job he loves.
It's as if there was some sort of magical spell cast over the whole conversation, where for just 10 minutes we could speak honestly with one another.
The moment passed.
Sometimes I think that everything I ever did (and still do) was an effort to gain my father's love and approval. He is smart, so I overachieved in school, winning every award and bringing home the perfect report cards in an effort to gain a flicker of his interest. He loves books and once had aspirations to write them, so I became a professional writer. In that way, this article is kind of your fault, Dad.
I joke a lot that I have "daddy issues," by which I mean low self-esteem and a tendency to seek sexual attention and approval from men, especially older men. That's not technically a joke, since it's completely accurate. Then again, the best jokes are. It was more than just inattention -- my dad had and continues to have a lack of boundaries around sexual topics and other people's bodies, which you can imagine was pretty formative on an adolescent girl. I inherited his inappropriateness, although not and never with children.
In so many ways I am like him. I too fight a depression, a darkness that wants to separate me from life. I fight harder than he did, at least for now.
Today having a relationship with my father is not high on my list of immediate goals. He doesn't really want to try, and I have plenty of other stuff to work through. Most of the time, I am ok with this, although I feel a twinge when I hear about women who are close with their fathers, when I see a father twirling his daughter during that father-daughter wedding dance and my brain starts going off about how stupid and disgusting the whole concept of paternal love really is. YUCK, who wants it, right? Right?
The fact is I will probably be getting married sooner rather than later, and while I will invite my father to my wedding if I have one, my skin starts to crawl thinking about being pressed up close to him while sappy music plays.
In the end, I'd just be slow-dancing with a stranger.

In addition, the choir uses "Wonder, Love, and Praise" for supplemental music.

The main purpose of the Adult Choir at St. Mark's is to lead the congregation in worship at the 10:30 a.m. Sunday service. Usually from September until May an offertory is presented which is based on the lectionary of the day. The hymns also reflect the message of the lectionary.
- The group practices regularly at 9:15am on Sunday mornings.
- See Calendar for updates.
Choir Director, Gret Kidd
Gret Kidd serves as the director of our choir. Tommy Hunter is our organist, with Bruce Wilsie or Sue Loeschen serving when Tommy is out of town.

text: Today was the 5th Sunday of Lent. Under the old calendar (1962) this would be the Memorial of St. Benedict, the founder of western monasticism. He died on this day in 547A.D. Even under the old calendar, the 5th Sunday of Lent would take precedence. Under the new calendar, the memorial is now July 11th. There is a short and interesting post on St. Benedict at "Shouts in the Piazza". Check out their blog… the post can be read here.

According to Reinhard Nissl's reply in another thread, this can be fixed in the cDevice plugin by not blocking input in cDevice::PlayVideo() or cDevice::PlayAudio() when cDevice::Transferring() holds. I'll update my shutdown patch for softdevice soon. No need to change anything in your patch.

As a result, adult distance continuing education is opening up more options for people with diverse backgrounds and varying economic and education levels.
Distance education courses can not only help you get a degree needed for job advancement – they can help you develop self-discipline, resourcefulness and a greater set of technology skills that can be used in any career pursuit.

Issues arise when systems are installed by those unfamiliar with them. This problem is solved with PRO-VISION's multiple factory installation teams.
Byron Center, Michigan (PRWEB) May 22, 2014
PRO-VISION Video Systems, the leader in rear vision and mobile video recording, has implemented multiple installation teams to better serve their customers throughout the United States. Most companies in the same industry rely heavily on independent contractors, vehicle dealers, or aftermarket equipment dealers to install the equipment. This change in installation comes at the start of the summer season during which school bus fleets have the downtime to implement large scale or fleet-wide camera installations.
Issues arise when systems are installed by those unfamiliar with them. This problem is solved with PRO-VISION's multiple factory installation teams. Each team has in-depth knowledge of the product allowing them to ensure the equipment is installed correctly, working properly, and customers are satisfied with their purchase right from the start. While the PRO-VISION system is designed for simple installation, errors result in a negative customer experience and leave them questioning if the product is to blame. With the new factory installation service available and PRO-VISION's industry-leading standard 5-Year System Warranty, customers know they are getting a reliable system that will work from day one.
About PRO-VISION
In 2003, PRO-VISION was incorporated and focused solely on back-up camera systems. 2005 marked their entry into the school bus market which helped their sales top 1 million dollars the following year. The company made their first international sale in 2007, and by 2009, PRO-VISION had expanded into commercial recording systems. During that time, they also released 4-camera school bus systems and made available live video viewing and video file transfer. In 2011, the company expanded into law enforcement recording systems and initiated its overseas sales program. 2013 brought on the 10-year anniversary of innovation and aggressive performance in the commercial video system industry, as well as the expansion of sales into over 24 countries around the globe including South Africa, Great Britain, Australia, Mexico, and Brazil.

Shouldn't we have some kind of thread for this?
Just watched Michael Phelts qualify for the last 16. Fairly amusing how the commentator was saying how he looked very tired, since he wasn't first, then in the last 50 metres he managed to finish first and set a new Olympic Record. That guy is too good at swimming.
Andy Murray's out too. I think.

Study concerning a Market Observatory in the Ambient Assisted Living field
Until a short time ago, the Ambient Assisted Living market was considered fundamentally a niche market combining telecare, home automation and telehealth services, mostly paid for by social services, care providers and hospitals.
There is clear agreement that the market is growing far and beyond these boundaries, driven by the main following trends:
- Demographics, creating the ageing society with an increasing number of Europeans over 65 creating new demand for independent living;
- The increasing costs of long-term care, creating demand for home-based services for the elderly, paid for by consumer 'out of pocket' money rather than welfare or insurance.
- The availability of new technology solutions enabling new applications and services for independent living, from wearable sensors connected through the Internet of Things to smart phones tailored to elderly usability.
The overarching objective of the Market Observatory is to give stakeholders a better understanding of the markets in the field of AAL at the local and international levels.
The main goal of the Market Observatory will be to provide market intelligence for the main stakeholders by:
- Monitoring the evolution of the "ICT for ageing well" market, with a focus on take-up of new solutions and potential users;
- Identifying the major market players in the EU and worldwide, deriving information on main consumers profiles, providing information about major investment-related developments (IPOs, mergers, new entrants) in Europe and the world;
- Comparing regularly the evolution of the main European, Asian and American markets;
- Disseminating and sharing its results with the stakeholder community

Two men have been charged with drugs offences after 16-year-old Daniel Spargo-Mabbs died from a suspected ecstasy overdose.
Nicqueel Pitrora, 18, and Ryan Kirk, 20, both from south London, are accused of being concerned in the supply of class A drugs.
They will appear at Uxbridge Magistrates' Court later today.
The pair and another man, 19, who has been bailed until March, were arrested after Daniel Spargo-Mabbs died from a suspected drugs overdose after going to an illegal rave.
Daniel had told his mother before leaving for the party on Friday night: "I love you mum, I promise I won't die."
Hours later he collapsed after taking ecstasy. He died on Monday in hospital.
Daniel's devastated mum Fiona, last night paid tribute to her son. Speaking at her home in Croydon, South London, with dad Tim, 50, the 46-year-old adult education manager said: "This is all so unreal. I don't know how I can go on.
"Daniel had never taken drugs before. It is not the kind of thing he did. He knew the risks.
"Danny always used to say, 'I love you too mum, I promise I won't die.' That's exactly what he said when he went out on Friday. He didn't keep that promise. But he didn't know. If he had, he wouldn't have done it."
His father warned: "It could happen to anyone." He described his son as "a lovely, mercurial kid".
The 50-year-old said: "He was up for adventure. He was a really normal kid. He spent a bunch of his spare time with his girlfriend and played a lot on his Xbox.
"This was the first time he'd taken anything and if it could happen to him it could happen to anyone. We very much want to get that message across."
Mr Spargo-Mabbs added that Daniel's girlfriend, a fellow pupil at Archbishop Tenison's Church of England High School in Croydon, was "traumatised" by his death.
Daniel was a pupil at Archbishop Tenison's Church of England High School in Croydon, where headteacher Richard Parrish paid tribute to him as a bright, articulate boy with "huge potential"
Mr Parrish said: "He was going to go far.
"We are still stunned. We're just beginning to emerge from that."
The teenager, who was in the first year of studying for his A-levels, was "just beginning to find his niche" and was interested in "a whole range" of things, the teacher said.
He wrote a letter to parents to express the school's grief.
It said: "Sometimes you hope that the worst thing won't happen. Sometimes it does happen anyway. And yesterday it did.
"We began Monday knowing that Daniel Spargo-Mabbs, one of our Year 12 students, who has been with us in the school since Year Seven, was in a critical condition on a life support machine. At lunch time he died. In the afternoon we spoke to each year group in turn, starting with his own, to tell them the terrible news.
"Today we begin again, knowing that our school and the world is the poorer without him. Today is too soon to do anything more than react to the brutal fact that we have lost Daniel.
"Tomorrow we will begin the process of remembering, of paying tributes, of collecting our thoughts and of coming together as a community to remember him together.
"Our heart goes out to Daniel's family, to his parents, to his brother Jacob (who did his A Levels here last summer) and to his closest friends."
Mr Parrish added: "It is not normal that a bright, articulate, talented 16-year-old should be taken from us in this way. It is not normal that his school and, above all, his family should be grieving today for his loss to us.
"It is not normal that his year group and his friends should have to learn so soon in life how short that life can be."

Saint Rose to fifth consecutive NCAA semis after beating West Chester
WEST CHESTER, Pa. – Saint Rose scored three goals in four and a half minutes during one stretch of the first half and rode that momentum to a 4-1 victory against host West Chester in a Division II Women's Soccer Tournament quarterfinal match Sunday on South Campus.
West Chester (15-5-1) saw its 2012 season come to a close at the hands of Saint Rose (20-2-2) in the quarterfinals for the second time in three years. The Golden Rams fell behind 4-0 in the contest and could not recover.
Molly Harpster scored from the top of the penalty area following a corner kick in the 23rd minute to get things started for the Golden Knights. Carmelina Puopolo then dribbled down the far side and let a blast from the 18-yard line go across the goal mouth that found the side panel of the net just under two minutes later.
Puopolo then fed Sydney Bond, who snuck in behind the defense on the right side, almost two minutes later to put Saint Rose on top, 3-0, heading into halftime.
Michaela Phillips then banged home a loose ball in front of the goal off a corner kick seven minutes into the second half.
West Chester's Erika Schrock headed in a corner kick from Carly Yost in the 62nd minute to put the Rams on the scoreboard. Despite trailing by three goals, the Golden Rams applied pressure in the second half and had their opportunities.
Senior Melissa McKeary let go a shot from the left side of the penalty area that the Saint Rose goalkeeper, Jessica Gerski, reached behind her and grabbed out of the air. McKeary later hammered a shot from almost the same area that just went over the crossbar. Cara Deola also had a golden opportunity when she dribbled along the end line, stepped out in front and went high with her shot that Gerski punched over the crossbar and out of play.
Gerski finished with six saves in the contest while Shannon Fedyk had four for the Golden Rams.
Saint Rose advances to the national semifinals for the fifth consecutive season. The defending national champions will go to Evans, Ga., with an opportunity to win their second consecutive national title.
