Federal income tax time is still a few months away, but there are some things you can do before Dec. 31 to save money on April 15.
"The biggest thing is, if you have a 401(k) retirement plan at work and you have not yet maxed it out, that is a great way to kick some extra dollars into your retirement account," Mary Beth Franklin, a senior editor at Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine, tells NPR's Renee Montagne.
What you contribute to the plan is excluded from your income, meaning a lower tax bill. It's also a good move in the long run in terms of building up savings.
For 2011, the maximum you can contribute to a 401(k) is $16,500, or up to $22,000 for those 50 or older. Under some proposed tax plans, the maximum contribution may be lowered to 20 percent of your income or $20,000 — whichever is lower. For an income of $50,000, then, you would only be able to contribute $10,000.
Self-Made Pay Raise
Another interesting way to keep some of your income is what Franklin refers to as giving yourself a pay raise by claiming more allowances on your W-4 form.
"The majority of Americans are just addicted to refunds," says Franklin, who has been writing about year-end tax moves for Kiplinger. "More than 75 percent of Americans give Uncle Sam an interest-free loan, and then they get this refund in the spring."
The amount of taxes withheld from your paycheck ideally should match the amount that you're going to owe when you file your tax return, Franklin says. But many people pay more than they owe through withholding and receive a refund.
This year, the average refund may reach $3,000. Claiming more allowances on your W-4 will mean more money in your paycheck when you earn it, Franklin explains.
Stocks And Home Investments
After this volatile year in the stock market, there are some moves to be made before Jan. 1 to dull the blow if you have an investment portfolio. One classic move Franklin points out is called "harvesting your losses," which applies only to taxable investment accounts — not retirement accounts like IRAs or 401(k)s.
"If you realize you have some losing investments and you choose to sell those before the end of the year, then you can use that to offset some winners, and possibly pay no tax at all," she says.
After matching up those gains and losses, you can use up to $3,000 of excess losses to offset regular income, like salary or IRA distributions.
Another tax credit set to expire Dec. 31, is for remodeling to make one's home more energy efficient. It's the last year the credit of up to $500 is available for purchases of things such as energy-efficient windows, doors and insulation.
Unlike deductions, Franklin notes, credits reduce the amount of taxes you owe (or increase your refund) dollar for dollar, instead of simply reducing the taxable amount. That makes credits an even better opportunity to lower your taxes.
Tax time is still a few months away but as we all know, you have to do a lot of things before the first of the year in order to save yourself money on April 15th.
Mary Beth Franklin has been writing about year-end tax moves for Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine. She is a senior editor there, and she joined us here at MORNING EDITION to offer some extra guidance. And thank you for joining us.
MARY FRANKLIN: My pleasure.
MONTAGNE: Let me start by saying that we're still in the midst of tax uncertainty.
FRANKLIN: We are. It always seems to be that the year-end guessing game of what will next year's rates be. We're actually quite fortunate. We know that the current income tax rates, and capital gains rates, will remain in effect for 2011 and 2012. So that makes year-end tax planning a little easier than usual. But there are a few outlying taxes out there that will disappear at the end of the year.
MONTAGNE: What is, in your opinion, the single most valuable move someone could make this year to lower their 2011 tax bill?
FRANKLIN: The biggest thing is, if you have a 401(k) retirement plan at work, and you have not yet maxed it out, that is a great way to - kick some extra dollars into your retirement account. It's good for you in the long run and assuming it's a traditional 401(k), you'll also lower your tax bill.
MONTAGNE: Of course, a lot of people aren't able to max out. Their income won't allow it. But what would be maxing out?
FRANKLIN: For 2011, the maximum you can contribute is $16,500. And if you are age 50 or older, you can kick in an extra $5,500. That brings your grand total to $22,000 for 2011.
Now, some people do get year-end bonuses. It's something we haven't heard about for ages. But some employers will allow you to put a portion of the bonus toward your 401(k).
MONTAGNE: You also write about another interesting way to keep some of your income, and that's what you call giving yourself a pay raise.
FRANKLIN: That's right. When you file your tax return each year, the amount of tax that's withheld from your paycheck, or that you submit through estimated tax payments, ideally should match the amount that you're going to owe when you file your tax return. But the majority of Americans are just addicted to refunds. More than 75 percent of Americans give Uncle Sam an interest-free loan, and then they get this refund in the spring. But wouldn't you really rather get the money when you earn it?
There's this easy fix. Just file a revised form W-4, which you get from your employer. And that will allow you to claim extra allowances, and that will mean more money will be in your paycheck each month.
MONTAGNE: Let's move onto something else: one's investments. What about the stock market, which has been up and down and up and down, but a lot down this year? Can that help you with your taxes?
FRANKLIN: Absolutely. That's a classic year-end tax planning move called harvesting your losses. Now, this only applies to your taxable investment accounts. It doesn't apply to retirement accounts like IRAs and 401(k)s. But if you realize you have some losing investments, and you choose to sell those before the end of the year, then you can use that to offset some winners and possibly, pay no tax at all.
And the other thing with losers, if you match up your gains and your losses, if you have any excess losses, you can use up to $3,000 of those losses to offset regular income, like your salary or IRA distributions.
MONTAGNE: This would be handy for a lot of people if they had the money to do it in the first place, and that is some sort of remodeling to make one's home more energy efficient.
FRANKLIN: If you're installing windows, like we did, the tax credit is limited to $200. And keep in mind that a tax credit is more valuable than a tax deduction. A tax credit reduces the amount you owe or increases your tax refund, dollar for dollar. This is also a lifetime credit. It's been in effect for several years, and if you've taken advantage of it before and have claimed at least $500 of that energy tax credit, you can't take it this year. It's also the last year it's available. It will expire on December 31st, 2011, unless Congress acts.
MONTAGNE: Mary Beth Franklin is a senior editor at Kiplinger's Personal Finance Magazine, with tips to save on taxes for 2011. Thanks very much.
FRANKLIN: Thank you.

Project Inform Press Statement on the New York City Department of Health Report of a "Super" Strain of HIV
February 11, 2005
San Francisco -- The New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene, in collaboration with the Aaron Diamond AIDS Research Center, released a press statement today reporting on a finding of man newly infected with a multi-drug resistant strain of HIV. The report described the man as being resistant to three classes of anti-HIV drugs and as having a particularly virulent strain of HIV. Although the transmission of drug-resistant HIV is a serious concern, Project Inform believes that the current reports may be unnecessarily alarming to the public. There is currently too little information available, and doctors have followed the patient for too short a time, to draw any conclusions about the significance of this situation. However, several aspects of the story being reported warrant further explanation.
First, there is nothing new about people becoming infected with resistant strains of HIV, including multi-drug resistant strains. Such cases have been reported at scientific conferences for the last several years. In a study reported in the journal AIDS: Volume 18(10) 2 July 2004, author Douglas Richman reports that "... Resistance to all three drug classes was detected in an estimated 13.1% (of 17,300 patients). ..." If triple class drug resistance is as common in the U.S. as Dr. Richman reports, it is likely that we will continue to see some portion of newly infected patients present with this level of resistance.
The advisory and press statement from New York City suggests that the patient is virtually untreatable, but this statement seems contradicted by other claims in the same report. The article says that the patient is responsive to the drug Fuzeon and may be responsive to Sustiva. If responsive to Sustiva, he is not "resistant to 3 classes of HIV medication" as claimed in the headline.
Another aspect of the reported case which is troubling is that the patient has a low CD4+ count. This was being interpreted as a sign of very rapid disease progression. However, it is common for people newly infected with HIV to have a period of low CD4+ counts and high viral load often lasting as long as 6 months after initial infection. Since the researchers involved suspect that the patient was infected in December 2004, it is not possible to determine at this time whether the patient's low CD4+ count suggests a particularly aggressive form of HIV or whether it is simply a reflection of the short time since infection. Only longer follow-up will answer this question.
Another concern stated by the researchers is that the patient has what is known as a "dual tropic" form of HIV. This means that the virus can use either of two different secondary receptors on cells. This characteristic is usually associated with virus seen in people with advanced disease. At the very least, this means the patient acquired the virus from someone with an advanced form of the disease. There is as yet no evidence though that this means he will retain this form of the virus over time.
We believe that it is premature to conclude that this event represents evidence of a "superbug" or a particularly virulent strain of HIV, or that the patient is "untreatable" or will suffer a particularly rapid disease progression. These conclusions can neither be ruled in nor ruled out at this time. What's needed is an extensive period of follow-up and careful continued monitoring of the patient. In many previously reported cases of people presenting with multi-drug resistance, the characteristics of their virus changed over time and they were able to develop normal sensitivity to the available drugs.
HIV infection presents a complex mix of factors that determine the outcome in individual patients. These include the characteristics of the initial virus a person acquires, but also how a person's immune system responds to the virus, and in turn, how the virus evolves in reaction to the immune system and any drugs used to treat it. No single snapshot of data can accurately predict the course of disease for an individual.
Project Inform shares the concern of scientists and public health workers over the spread of resistant virus, but we also recognize how difficult it is to predict the significance of any individual case and what it may or may not mean for the at-risk populations. Every effort must be made to stop the spread of HIV, regardless of whether it is in drug resistant or drug sensitive form. We also believe that new information should be studied carefully and interpreted with caution and that care should be taken not to cause undue alarm when the facts are uncertain, as they are in this case.
Our understanding of the current situation is based on extended conversations with a number of AIDS experts and researchers, who like us, can only base their assessments on the limited information currently available. We strongly support the efforts of the New York City Department of Health and Mental Hygiene to continue following this case and to determine how frequently similar types of HIV transmission might be occurring.
In Response to Reported Case of Multi-Drug Resistant HIV in NYC, HIV Prevention Leaders Urged a Clear and Targeted Public Health Response, Increased Resources for Primary HIV Prevention and Continued Collaboration With Medical Providers

Stephen Hayes of the Weekly Standard has more on the new evidence of a substantial connection between Saddam's Iraq and al Qaeda. Big Trunk discussed this matter here a few days ago.
An interesting sidelight in Hayes' piece is a compilation of various Clinton-era pronouncements suggesting precisely the connection that we more recently were told did not exist (and, indeed, could not exist, inasmuch as Saddam was a secular, not a religious, figure). ABC News, Newsweek, and an AP report that ran in the Washington Post had all said there appeared to be a connection (the Post has since ridiculed the American public for believing in that connection). Various arms of the Clinton administration had also said so. It looks like they were right.
HINDROCKET adds: Don't miss this one. Hayes' book, The Connection : How al Qaeda's Collaboration with Saddam Hussein Has Endangered America, is coming out within the next week, and deserves to be a blockbuster. Even NPR knew there was an Iraq-al Qaeda during the Clinton administration, as did Richard Clarke and, most significantly, the Clinton Justice Department. The following is an excerpt from the Clinton administration's 1998 indictment of Osama bin Laden:
Al Qaeda reached an understanding with the government of Iraq that al Qaeda would not work against that government and that on particular projects, specifically including weapons development, al Qaeda would work cooperatively with the Government of Iraq.
This post from Thursday discusses the most recent discovery: One of the key September 11 plotters was a Lt. Colonel in the Saddam Fedayeen.

I'm quite bothered with the twins "issues" and don't see why it takes so much to resolve it. Personally I don't like them that much (well maybe because i'm a straight man. I do like their funny moments, not their gay moments, bahahaha). But the last few episodes were kinda outside, so it's not as interesting, although always funny.
I'm guessing the show is saving up near the end for a prime Haruhi and Tamaki development episodes and will probably conclude with those two as the main focus.

Well I don't think there'll be any more twins-centered eps after this.
The next ep is about Mori-sempai (or rather, his brother) it seems, and the next 3 episode titles are, according to the Japanese wiki (and web newtype for the first one)
All of them suggest they won't be twins-centered.
I think the screenwriter sacrificed the subject of the episodes for the general flow of the series. I guess he wanted to maintain a particular buildup of tension or mood in general and shifting the episodes around in a different way wouldn't have worked.
Either that, or the producers say "Leave Tamaki x Haruhi for the last!!!", and so he gets all the others out of the way and ends with Tamaki (and puts the twins in a bit of a bad light too).
By the way, for anyone who doesn't already know, it's been the exact same guy who has been writing the script from the show for all the episodes. The guy who wrote 20 out of 39 eps of Utena and all of Melody of Oblivion: Yoji Enokido. I think he worked on Sailor Star S (or whatever part of Sailor Moon that Ikuhara worked on.)

I liked this epi, it was done different then the manga version. Yeah we've been seeing alot of teh twins lately but I liked seeing Hikaru blush when he was in the net with haruhi. Plus the look Tamaki had when the twins say they cant do Club activities and take Haruhi with them was priceless! Plus Nekozawa was in this epi!

I personally don't mind the twins, mainly because I personally like Hikaru and Haruhi together moreso than any other Haruhi coupling. Lots more drama involved than all the other couplings combined, IMHO. XD
Still, that wasn't the reason I liked this episode so much. For some reason, Ouran has a tendency to make couples out of childhood friend (episode 2 and 6), and another one in this episode makes me extremely happy. Osana-najimi FTW!

I also really do not mind the episodes featuring the twins. I admit that their stories have taken up quite a share of the series so far, but I have to confess that I do enjoy watching their characters evolve. Of course, like the majority of you, I am glad that the remainder of the series will focus more on the other characters. I am especially looking forward to watching Tamaki finally take the spotlight again.
Other than that, concerning this episode, I have to say that I had fun with Nekozawa's scheme to scare the wits out of class 1-A. lol notice how even their spirits were captured on film. And Renge's Halloween-special entrance into the classroom at the beginning of the episode was priceless.

yes the comedy is back up again
nice forcus on some minor chara...i feel sorry for the class rep
funny parts include when the class rep freaks out talking to haruhii and she has to tell him to carm down and when haruhi graps his "leaving spirit" back into his body XD
ooh and watching the twins get scared...i hope they had a good taste of their own medicine priceless
Kaoru seems to want hikaru to move forward...that is soo touching /cry brotherly love...

I prefer the twins getting episodes to Honey and Mori getting episodes, since there's far more complexity to the twins. Not that I thought this episode was brilliant. I think we've seen the best comedy this series has to offer, but I predicted this would happen from the beginning. Only very, very special comedies can stay consistently funny for the entire course of the series, and, unfortunately, Ouran isn't one of them. Admittedly, I chuckled every now and then in this ep, but it's just not ROFL funny the way it was at the beginning.
This has hinted for a while at a relationship between Hikaru and Haruhi (and, interestingly enough, done it from the point of view of Kaoru most of the time), but I can't see it happening... not before the end of this season, anyway. Which makes me ponder what the point is, past forcing twin development down our throats. The character development is slightly weakened by the fact that we won't see a huge plot before the end, but I shouldn't be too harsh on Ouran for that, since the plot was never the point in the first place. I'm just a bit concerned that some of the other components in Ouran that are the point are weakening with time.

I have lots of weekend trips planned for this summer, so I'm wondering what are
It's a smart idea to have a selection of essentials on hand for your weekend trips. After all, nothing is less relaxing than freaking out over your packing list, right? Since it's summer, obviously you need a bikini. I'm personally obsessed with Eres swimwear (it's expensive, but worth the investment) and suits with high-waisted or mid-rise briefs. Make sure you throw a cover-up in your bag too; Joie makes some really nice options that can also double as tunics or mini dresses. Don't forget to bring some sort of straw tote-stripes are classic, but patterns are cute too-for your trips to the pool, beach, or farmer's market. In addition to all that beach-friendly gear, a lovely, lightweight nightgown is another key piece; right now I'm all about anything that has a Little House on the Prairie vibe. If you don't already have a Panama hat, definitely add that to your list. Maxi dresses are a must too (they're the epitome of easy elegance) or you can do a playsuit or two if you'd prefer. Flat sandals are another essential, whether it's a gladiator style or something simple. Of course you need a handful of casual tops; I tend to favour Kain tanks and t-shirts in both prints and solid colours. Boyfriend jeans are another one of my weekend staples, and last, but not least, I always have a couple pairs of fun sunglasses in my suitcase!

Starcraft is a family-owned business that has been around since 1903. It is one of the oldest and most respected names in the RV industry and calls northern Indiana, the heart of Amish country, home. They began building livestock tanks and other metal farm equipment in the early years and added a variety of boats to their line-up in the 1920's.
In 1964, Starcraft entered and revolutionized the modern camping industry and began building folding camping trailers that featured the industry's first crank-up lifter system and hard tops for pop-up campers.
Over time they quickly learned what people were looking for in a camper and began building their reputation on creating dependable campers at an affordable price all the while using the highest quality materials available. With Amish inspired attention to detail and time tested design principals Starcraft has become one of the most recognized name in the industry.
Today Starcraft builds not only folding camping trailers but luxurious fifth wheels and travel trailers as well. Without a doubt, Starcraft will be around for years to come!

Metascore®Generally unfavorable reviewsbased on a weighted average of allcritic review scores.
This perfectly dreadful romantic action comedy manages to embarrass its three eminently attractive leading players in every scene, making this an automatic candidate for whatever raspberries or golden turkeys or other dubious awards may be given in future for the films of 2012.
Read Full Review
Silly action sequences grow tedious and rarely blend with the wannabe madcap comedy.
As is true in most buddy pictures, the real love in This Means War is between FDR and Tuck. Pine and Hardy are an odd choice as Men Who Bond. Pine behaves like a player on Entourage; Hardy broods as if he thinks dating is torture. But as a result, they're kind of cute in an itchy and scratchy way, bumping shoulders in a pantomime of what men do in love and war.
See all This Means War reviews at Metacritic.com
OK for kids 15+
Lackluster action romcom has violence, sexual references.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that This Means War is a romantic comedy-meets-spy thriller with lots of sexual innuendo, passionate kissing, and action violence (including shooting and some deaths, though nothing particularly graphic). The language includes one use of "f--k," as well as "s--t," "bitch," "ass," "d--k," and the like. There's one love scene and several references to sex (including doing it with two guys as a "tiebreaker") and many make-out scenes. Although the movie's premise is comical, it can also send the iffy message that lying about who you are can win someone's heart. Note: The movie was initially rated R but was re-rated PG-13 upon appeal.
Messages: The movie's ultimate message is that you shouldn't put on an act while you're dating someone. But for most of the movie, both men are using information they've acquired as CIA agents to woo Lauren under false premises. Still, Lauren decides that the only advice she needs isn't "who's the better guy" but who makes her the better girl.
Role models: At first, the guys are willing to back away from Lauren when each realizes that the other is seeing her, too, but then they decide to vie for her affections. The two agents don't play fairly and pretend to be interested in things only because they know Lauren loves them.
Violence: Plenty of action-packed, quickly edited violence. Characters die, but it's not gory -- several are shot in quick succession; another falls off the side of a building. Tuck and FDR threaten a possible informant with a wrench and get into fights during their missions. Explosions, gun shots, hand-to-hand combat, and martial arts moves, but the body count isn't high, and the scenes are so fast paced that you can barely tell who's hurt where.
Sex: One love scene (the woman is shown in her bra and panties; the man is shirtless), plus lots of make-out scenes and references to sex -- like when Lauren decides to have a "sex tiebreaker," or her best friend, Trish, discusses who looks like he'd have "dirty sex." Trish also encourages Lauren to talk about the fact that she was a gymnast, because guys like women who are "flexible" and can do certain things in bed. A man describes sex as "entered the premises"; two best friends swear not to have sex with Lauren but then do it anyway.
Language: One "f--k" and several uses of "s--t," plus "ass," "bitch," "bastard," "damn," "horny pants," "p---y," "d--k," "hell," "crap," "oh my God," "idiots," etc.
Consumerism: Many shots of Mac computers and various cars, including a Camaro, a Suburban, an Audi, and a BMW.
Drinking, drugs and smoking: Adults drink socially at various dinners and dates. One character stashes alcohol in a sippy cup and at one point refers to her drink as "mommy's special milk." She also refers to her marital sex appointment as doing it "with Cheetos and wine."

Bruins general manager Peter Chiarelli continued to lock up members of his 2011-12 club by re-signing two key centers Monday, according to a Tweet from TSN reporter Bob McKenzie.
Chris Kelly (four years, $12 million) and Gregory Campbell (three years, $4.8 million) have re-signed with the club less than a month before they were scheduled to become unrestricted free agents.
With these signings, the Bruins now have 12 of their 14 forwards from last season's postseason roster under contract for 2012-13. Only Benoit Pouliot and Brian Rolston are still scheduled for free agency.
Kelly, an alternate captain last season, set career highs in goals (20) and points (39). Campbell produced 16 points (8 goals) and one Gordie Howe hat trick in his role as fourth-line center. Both Kelly and Campbell have been key components of Boston's successful penalty kill the last couple years.


text: I have this unit tripping on low discharge superheat. I have verified sensors and pressure transducers are ok. We have changed flash tank level sensor because to old one was bad and. Ow this problem keeps showing up. I was having problems with the latest sensor put in late last year and have replaced it again with the latest and greatest version which I believe is the same as the last one changed, feed valves and drain valves work correctly in test mode and seem to be working ok when running. I suspect when Economizer is on we are dumping some liquid back on compressor and that the flash tank is to full and level senser is bad again. Was hoping someone who has run into this might have some ideas. Thanks for any input.

Appleseed 2-Day Rifle Clinics in CT/RI Area: Feb 27-28, Mar 20-21, Apr 17-18
Alrighty, we've got a few more Appleseeds lined up Connecticut - one each in February, March and April. And with one in Eastern CT, just a short drive from Rhode Island.
Still need to know more about Appleseed? Have a look at this recent blog post by one of our very own TFL community members, Massad Ayoob.
Chaplin, CT Appleseed: February 27-28, 2010 (pre-registration)
This Appleseed, held at The Fin, Fur and Feather Club, is only an hour's drive from Providence, RI. I know many Rhode Islanders have been hankering for an Appleseed in their state. We're working on it, but until then, this one is just a short drive from you. So come on down!
Colebrook, CT Appleseed: March 20-21, 2010 (pre-registration)
We're at Colebrook again after a successful (and snowy!) Appleseed in December. If you missed Colebrook last year, here's your chance to make it up.
Hartford, CT Appleseed: April 17-18, 2010 (pre-registration)
Once again, we're commemorating April 19, 1775 by having as many Appleseeds across the United States on this very special weekend. This year, we return to the Hartford Gun Club. Come join the fun and celebrate with us the day when marksmanship met history and the heritage began.
As always, PM or post with questions. Hope to see you at one of these events!
"They have men amongst them who know very well what they are about..."

The Chicago mother walked out of prison a free woman. But, despite the legal victory that secured her release, Harris is still fighting to prove her innocence.
"I was beyond anxious," Harris said upon her release. "There aren't any words to describe it. None. There aren't."
Harris walked out of the Dwight Correctional Center just before noon, with family and friends waiting to greet her after a court overturned her conviction and ordered her released.
Harris served seven years of a 30-year sentence for the murder of her 4-year-old son. Monday morning, she was greeted inside the prison by her other son, 14-year-old Diante, who gave his mother a brown teddy bear and a balloon.
"I'm just overwhelmed and I'm thankful that it's going to be over," said Harris. "I just want to get home to my son. I'm just ready to get on with my life and hold my son."
Harris had been behind bars since May 2005. Following her confession to authorities, a jury found the then-23-year-old guilty of killing her son, Jaquari Dancy, with elastic from a bedsheet during a fit of rage at their Northwest Side home.
Harris has maintained her innocence, saying her confession to police after 27 hours of questioning was false.
"I knew that regardless of whatever happened that I had the truth behind me," Harris said Monday.
With the help of the Center on Wrongful Convictions and others, the U.S. Court of Appeals agreed.
"There was so much about this case that troubled us even before we met Nicole," said Northwestern University's Center on Wrongful Convictions' Alison Flaum.
The judges ruled, among other things, that a then-6-year-old Diante should have been allowed to testify that Jaquari strangled himself as he played a "Spider-Man" game while their mother was at a nearby laundry.
"From the very beginning, we knew that Nicole was innocent," said Nicole's cousin Wanda Harris.
"I just want to enjoy my life," Harris said. "I'm glad to be free."
Harris remains in a kind of legal limbo. The state has appealed the ruling that overturned her conviction, asking the U.S. Supreme Court to review the case.
Cook County prosecutors could still move to retry Harris. A spokesperson says no decision has been made yet.

Another comeback for comedian Alan Burksy
February 22, 2012
The last time Alan Bursky performed at the Improv was eight years ago.
The last time I saw him was at Fran Cowan's memorial service, asking if there were any dates available so he could get booked up here. Comics don't care when the opportunity arises so long as it arises.
Alan, who opens for Bobby Collins through Sunday, had a long career dating back to the 1970s, when he made his national television debut on "The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson" at the age of 18, making him the youngest comedian ever to appear on the show.
Things opened up for him quickly, appearing in a guest-starring role on "The Partridge Family" and other standup appearances and specials hosted by Mike Douglas, Dinah Shore, Dean Martin, Jim Nabors and Richard Pryor. It was his appearance on "The Mike Douglas Show" that really stood out, because he was also booked with one of the fastest-rising young comics of that decade, Freddie Prinze. In fact, both Alan and Freddie Prinze were roommates.
Alan once joked that Freddie would say, "Can you see the headlines, 'Freddie Prinze dead.' I would kid him back and say, 'You better hope there isn't an earthquake that day.' Turns out there was a massive blizzard in New York that day. The headlines of the New York Times was 'Snow stuns city.' Underneath it said, 'Freddie Prinze succumbs to self-inflicted gunshot.' One of the saddest days in showbiz."
Alan eventually made what many thought was an interesting transition in the business. He went from being a standup comic to an agent who books comics when he was hired by David Shapira & Associates to head up its comedy division. That means that for a brief stint Bursky went from being a standup comic to an agent that booked standups before returning full time to doing comedy. As one can imagine, Alan has some of the most interesting showbiz stories from both sides of the aisle.
Recommended Stories For You
Alan has had several comebacks. Like I alluded to earlier, it has been eight years and I'm curious to see how he does, what he's been up to, but more importantly to see how his comedy has transformed. It's already a good lineup with Bobby Collins headlining, so working with Alan this week should prove very entertaining given the nature of their two very different backgrounds.

About RSNA
(This biography from Burton P. Drayer, MD originally appeared in Radiology)
At the forefront of the explosion in research on the workings of the brain for the past 3 decades, Bruce R. Rosen, MD, PhD, has developed the physiologic and functional magnetic resonance (MR) imaging techniques used by clinicians and investigators throughout the world.
Dr Rosen—a professor of radiology at the Harvard Medical School (Boston, Mass) and director of the Athinoula A. Martinos Center for Biomedical Imaging at Massachusetts General Hospital, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), and Harvard Medical School— has devoted his lengthy career to developing and applying the physiologic and functional MR imaging techniques used widely in research and clinical care to evaluate patients with stroke, brain tumors, dementia, and other mental illness.
"For nearly 30 years, my research has focused on the development and application of physiological and functional nuclear magnetic resonance techniques to address basic biological and clinical questions," Dr Rosen said.
Equal parts researcher and mentor, Dr Rosen is committed to training and educating the students and fellows whose contributions to medical imaging will translate into the important clinical advances of tomorrow. Collaboration with young researchers is central to his role as director of the Martinos Center, a position he has held since 2002.
"As director of the biomedical imaging center, I have the great pleasure of collaborating with, training and getting to know the work of young basic and clinical researchers and trainees," Dr Rosen said. "I consider my activities as mentor and advisor a central part of my personal career objectives and my responsibilities as center director, and I relish the opportunity to interact with and learn along with our trainees.
" Dr Rosen's career ascended quickly after he earned his MD degree from Hahnemann Medical College in Philadelphia, Pa, in 1982 and his PhD degree in medical physics from MIT in 1984. In 1987, he joined Harvard Medical School as a radiology instructor and served as director of the Radiological Sciences Division, Department of Nuclear Engineering at MIT from 1992 to 1999. In 1998, he became director of the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Center at Massachusetts General Hospital—a position he still holds—and, in 1999, became a professor of radiology at Harvard. He has served as professor of health sciences and technology at MIT since 2007.
The launch of his research career coincided with the development of functional MR imaging in the late 1990s and has progressed hand-in-hand with the technique that has come to dominate brain imaging research.
His research in the development of functional MR imaging techniques includes measurement of the physiologic and metabolic changes associated with brain activation and cerebrovascular insult. His most recent work has focused on fusing functional MR imaging data with information from other modalities, including very-high-temporal-resolution signals by using magnetoencephalography and noninvasive optical imaging.
By using functional MR imaging tools to evaluate the link between neuronal and physiologic events during periods of increased neuronal activity, his studies will allow researchers improve their ability to interpret functional MR imaging signal changes and develop new ways of probing brain function.
He shared his early insight on functional MR imaging during his New Horizons Lecture, "Functional Imaging of the Brain in Space and Time," at the 2002 Radiological Society of North America Scientifi c Assembly and Annual Meeting, where he discussed the potential for the technology to capture views of brain function in real time and in all populations—a concept that has since been realized.
Dr Rosen is the author or coauthor of more than 125 peer-reviewed articles, book chapters, and reviews. He serves as associate editor of Human Brain Mapping and is a member of the editorial boards of several scientifi c journals. A regular contributor to Radiology, he coauthored the 2011 editorial, "Quantitative Markers for Neuropsychiatric Disease: Give It a Rest," in which he analyzed the history, progress, and potential of functional MR imaging.
"Although the use of functional MR imaging in presurgical planning is now well established and other applications, such as localization of a cortical disease like epileptogenic foci, are growing at a steady pace, realizing the broader promise of functional MR imaging as a diagnostic tool for diseases of cognitive function remains a work in progress," Dr Rosen wrote in the Radiology editorial.
Also a work in progress, his research career continues through such ongoing efforts as the Human Connectome Project, a collaborative, multi-institutional research initiative to construct a map of the human connectome, which represents the structural and functional connections in vivo within a brain and across individuals. He also serves as co–principal investigator for the Biomedical Informatics Research Network (BIRN), a national initiative to assist biomedical research through data sharing and online collaboration.
For his achievements, Dr Rosen was awarded the International Society of Magnetic Resonance in Medicine (ISMRM) gold medal in functional MR imaging in 1997. He was honored as a fellow of ISMRM in 1999 and of the American Institute for Biomedical Engineering in 2006. RSNA is pleased to add Outstanding Researcher to his list of accolades.

Under the Dome Is Getting a Second Season
Dome stop believing, UTD fans.
Bad news for Chester's Millers (good news for live-tweeters): The dome is staying, at least for another summer. CBS announced today that Under the Dome will be returning for a second thirteen-episode season next summer. As the show expands beyond Stephen King's original novel, the King himself will write the first episode of the new season. CBS Entertainment President Nina Tassler commented, "We're excited to tell more stories about the mystery of the dome and the secrets in Chester's Mill." Ooh, maybe we'll learn there is a another, bigger dome and that it's actually a dome inside a dome inside a dome inside a dome, like a set of Russian Nesting Domes.

Those who profited from the Lexington-based alleged Ponzi scheme, Zeek Rewards, have until May 31 to pursue a settlement. After that, they will be subject to legal action, according to an online letter posted by the case's court-appointed receiver Monday.
Those who profited from the Lexington-based alleged Ponzi scheme, Zeek Rewards, have until May 31 to pursue a settlement. After that, they will be subject to legal action, according to an online letter posted by the case's court-appointed receiver Monday.
Receiver Kenneth Bell, a partner at McGuireWoods in Charlotte, again encouraged the program's net winners to contact his team and discuss settlements of their claims. He said his team will be available for at least 60 more days.
"After (May 31), I will assume that all net winners that want to avoid the legal process by discussing settlement have done so, and I will move forward with court action, likely in June 2013, against the remaining net winners," Bell said in the letter.
Bell estimates that close to $300 million was "fraudulently transferred" to nearly 80,000 Zeek Rewards users. Some of the largest winners made more than $1 million, according to court documents.
Many more, close to 840,000 users, lost money in the alleged scheme, which encouraged the recruitment of new members, or affiliates, to promote the related penny auction site, Zeekler.com.
The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission shut down Zeek Rewards, Zeekler.com and parent company Rex Venture Group in August 2012. In addition to filing securities fraud charges and freezing Zeek's assets, the SEC claimed the operation was a huge Ponzi scheme on the verge of collapse.
Launching in 2011, Zeek Rewards was one of the first penny auction-based companies to present profit-sharing opportunities to its customers. Its affiliates bought in by purchasing large quantities of bids from Zeekler.com to give away to new customers using the penny auction website. Affiliates were also required to post a daily advertisement online.
For buying bids and placing an ad, affiliates shared in the company's daily net profits through "rewards" — bonuses they could compile over time and eventually turn into cash.
In reality, the SEC alleges, new investors were just funding the payouts for higher-up affiliates. About 98 percent of Zeek Rewards total revenues, and subsequent payouts to its affiliates, were comprised of funds received from new investors, according to the SEC's complaint filed in federal court in Charlotte in August.
Bell said in the simplest terms, net winners should seek settlements because it's the right thing to do.
"The people who took more money out than they put in actually have the money of the people who put more in than they took out," Bell told The Dispatch. "Our court-appointed mission is to make people as whole as possible."
Bell said quite a few people have expressed an interest in reaching settlements and his team has entered into settlement agreements with some.
The amounts of the settlements have ranged from about 40 percent to 80 percent of the affiliate's net winnings, according to Bell's letter. However, not all net winners have been or will be offered discounted settlements and amounts may vary, the letter said.
"The amount of the settlement offered to each net winner will be based on the affiliate's particular circumstances and ultimately must — in both my and the Court's opinion — be in the overall best interests of the victims, considering the costs associated with the legal process," according to the letter.
Bell submitted a proposed claims process for victims to the Courts last week. He said he would not expect the court to approve it until early April.
The claims process will be open for 120 days, which will have to then be evaluated for legitimacy and accuracy. After that, Bell said he hopes to make an interim distribution to victims.
"We're well into the fall until we'd have court permission to have that," Bell said.
The receivership team has collected about $300 million so far, mostly from financial institutions and outstanding cashier's checks cut to Zeek.
The final distribution will take place after all recoverable assets are recovered, including money from potential claw back litigation.
"Once you get involved in litigation, things move slowly," Bell said. "We will move as quickly as possible. Litigation always takes a long time."

CHICAGO — Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan was released from prison before dawn Wednesday, stopping only briefly at a halfway house before he was allowed to travel home to serve the rest of his sentence for corruption.
CHICAGO — Former Illinois Gov. George Ryan was released from prison before dawn Wednesday, stopping only briefly at a halfway house before he was allowed to travel home to serve the rest of his sentence for corruption.
By midday, the 78-year-old was sitting in the living room of his spacious home in a leafy northern Illinois neighborhood in Kankakee, beaming and surrounded by his children and grandchildren, said Ryan's attorney and also a former governor, Jim Thompson.
"If you could see his and his grandkids' smiling faces," said Thompson, speaking by phone from Ryan's house. "He is surrounded by happy faces."
Amid an already emotion-packed day for Ryan, a grandchild handed him an urn shortly after his arrival at home that held the ashes of his wife, Lura Lynn, who died in 2011, Thompson said. He and his wife had raised their children in the same house.
Ryan's discharge to home confinement just hours after arriving at the halfway house seemed to surprise even Thompson, who insisted Ryan got no special treatment. He said officials simply determined he didn't need the services halfway homes provide such as assistance in writing checks and interviewing for jobs.
"The bureau of prisons is tough," Thompson said. "They don't play favorites." He noted that prison officials refused to bend the rules, for instance, when Ryan asked to attend his wife's funeral; the request was denied.
Ryan, a Republican, served five-plus years behind bars for multiple corruption convictions, walking out of his federal prison in Terre Haute, Ind. at around 1 a.m. Wednesday — his son driving him the 200 miles north to Chicago.
His first stop after getting to the Chicago area was at Thompson's house, where the two had coffee and Ryan changed from sweat pants into a business suit and put on the first tie he'd worn in years, Thompson said.
Later, looking relaxed and thinner than before prison, he walked past throngs of reporters into a Chicago halfway house just before 7 a.m. on Wednesday. Ryan smiled faintly but didn't speak to reporters.
Ryan was mostly quiet during the long drive from Indiana to Chicago, making a detour to Michigan Avenue to take in the Christmas lights still up along the city's iconic shopping street, Thompson said.
"It is such a stark change from penitentiary life," Thompson said outside the halfway house before traveling on to Kankakee. "He has to become accustomed again to being on the outside."
Ryan's status as an ex-governor didn't win him special consideration in the decision to let him skip the halfway house and go home, Bureau of Prisons spokesman Chris Burke said later Wednesday.
"It's not unheard of," he said.
Elderly inmates, those in poor health or those who have families willing to take care of them can win exemptions from mandates to spend at least several days at a halfway house, Burke said. He wasn't permitted to speak specifically about the factors in Ryan's case.
Ryan has suffered from his own health problems, including kidney disease, but displayed no outward signs of ill-health Wednesday.
Thompson said a final decision to let Ryan head home was made by prison officials only Wednesday morning, but he said he hadn't made the request and he wasn't aware that Ryan had. He said the facility apparently concluded a limit number of beds would be better offered to someone other than Ryan.
Ryan will be under home confinement until his sentence officially ends July 4, meaning he will only be allowed to leave on rare occasion, including for doctor's appointments or to go to church, and only with prior permission, Burke said.
Ryan will still be subject to strict rules, including prohibitions against speaking to the media. Thompson added that Ryan, who worked in a carpentry shop in prison, was granted retirement status by authorities, so he won't be required to find a job.
Ryan drew nationwide attention in 2003 when he deemed Illinois' capital punishment laws flawed and emptied death row. That reignited a nationwide debate and led the state to abolish its death penalty in 2011.
Some activists working to abolish the death penalty have suggested Ryan could speak nationwide on the issue.
His release means Illinois no longer has the dubious distinction of having two former governors behind bars simultaneously. Ryan's successor, Rod Blagojevich, is now Illinois' lone imprisoned governor. The Democrat is serving a 14-year term for corruption at a federal prison in Colorado.
A jury convicted Ryan in 2006 of racketeering, conspiracy, tax fraud and making false statements to the FBI. Jurors found that Ryan had steered state business to insiders as secretary of state and then as governor for vacations and gifts. He also was accused of stopping an investigation into secretary of state employees accepting bribes for truck driver's licenses.
Ryan was sentenced to 6 ½ years on Nov. 7, 2007. He compiled credit for good conduct, knocking 305 days off his sentence, Burke said.
Current Gov. Pat Quinn commented on Ryan's release at a news conference Wednesday, citing the deaths of six children of the Willis family in an accident involving a trucker who apparently bought his license when Ryan was secretary of state. The fatal crash helped spark the Ryan investigation.
"It's a very, very sad chapter in Illinois," Quinn said. "Justice had to be served. ... Mr. Ryan served his time and we're moving forward."
