Airbnb Makes Group Travel Easy with Global Launch of Split Payments
Sharing a trip with friends can create some of the most unforgettable adventures and memories. Sharing the bill at the end? That's a different story. Between determining who paid for what, how to split evenly and adding up every last cost, group travel payments can easily make anyone's head spin. Roughly 4 out of 5 American travelers (79%) have been on multiple group trips in the last five years, according to a recent Airbnb survey conducted online by DKC Analytics among 2,000 people*, and that's why today, Airbnb is becoming the first accommodation provider to build and implement a seamless, global split payments feature to travelers around the world.
At the end of 2016, Brian Chesky asked consumers: "If @Airbnb could launch anything in 2017, what would it be?" One of the top requests was group payments. We heard consumers loud and clear, and with the launch of split payments, we're delivering on that promise. We've tested this in recent months with over 80,000 groups successfully using the feature from all over the world in nearly 175 countries, using over 44 different currencies.
We are excited this tool will help solve a problem that has plagued many groups while traveling together. For those that have traveled with a group, two-fifths (38%) have experienced not receiving all the money owed from a group trip. Of these people, a whopping 43 percent have lost $1,000 or more in group trip repayments, and a stunning 18 percent of the most frequent group trip takers* report losses of $10,000 or more. Group trips often times mean one person fronting big costs. Fifty-two percent of group travelers report they've fronted $500 or more, and almost a third (31%) have fronted more than $1,000.
Now, the split payments feature will ease the financial burden on group trip organizers, and alleviate the pain for travelers to front costs associated with booking. Airbnb guests won't have to chase their friends and family after a trip to pay them back. It's simple to use — when a trip organizer requests to book a listing that qualifies for splitting payments, the reservation is put in an "awaiting payment" state, with the organizer's portion of the booking charged on their credit card while the host's calendar is blocked. The organizer can hold a reservation for up to 72 hours, giving time to others in the group to log on to Airbnb and pay their portion. You can learn more here.
This year, we have seen group travel surge. New Year's Eve 2016 was our biggest night yet for group stays, and over the course of last year, 15.5 million groups took trips on Airbnb*, with an average stay of 3.5 nights. As social travel continues to grow in 2018, you won't have your family holiday travel plans or New Year's buddymoon end up like this:
The ability to split payments is just part of our commitment to make group travel easier. In using the split payments tool, groups will have even more listings to choose from that often fall outside of what an organizer can afford to reserve if they had to front the total cost.
With this newfound freedom, we hope some of these popular destinations and listings for group travel will inspire friends and families for their next adventure:

Tam-George: Government is concerned with the situation
Dr. Austin Tam-George is Rivers State Commissioner for Information and Communication. He spoke with ANN GODWIN in Port Harcourt on what government is doing about the rising killings in the state.
What is the state government doing to stop the killings in Omoku, Abua/Odua, Ubima, Abonnema and Okrika?
Governor Nyesom Wike has given unprecedented financial and logistic support to the Rivers State Police Command and other security agencies in the state. He was the first in this political dispensation to give over 60 security-fitted vehicles to the police within just two months in office and he has continued to fund operations of security agencies in the state.
In addition to funding, the governor has had series of security meetings to galvanise the police, civic groups, youth leaders, traditional chiefs and business leaders into common front in a bid to curb crime and criminality across the state.
But we have experienced too frequent deployment and redeployment of police commissioners and other key security personnel in and out of the state. This has tended to undermine the strong security architecture the governor had worked so hard to build from his first day in office. Each new police commissioner needs time to settle down, and criminals tend to take advantage of any loss of the security momentum. But the governor has never relented in his efforts to secure the state.
Is this administration really concerned about the killings. How can Rivers get back its peace?
Of course, we are extremely concerned about the killing of even a single individual. And the State government continues to fight violent crime vigorously in Rivers Sate. Rivers State is probably the only state in the country where there are standing financial and other incentives for any traditional ruler that helps keep the peace in his domain.
Violent crimes are not limited to Rivers State; we've seen audacious daylight armed robberies in the country. There is an active insurgency in the Northeast that has claimed several lives in the past six years. In Rivers State, police investigations have shown again and again that most of these sporadic killings stem from the retributive attacks launched by rival cult gangs battling for supremacy. The arrests of key cult figures have revealed critical intelligence that the police continue to use to infiltrate and degrade these gangs.
The APC has accused the state government of being behind the killings, how do you react to that?
This is just a mindless propaganda peddled by the All Progressives Congress (APC). It's sickening that a political party would politicize not just crime, but the victims of criminality. As I said, police investigations have shown that much of this violence are gang-related, and have nothing to do with the government.
In fact, it is the APC that has used the military to launch politically motivated raids on communities and the homes of PDP supporters in the state. These invasions have taken place in Ogoni, Okrika, Ogu-Bolo, Etche, Abonnema, Ahoada, Ikwerre, and so forth.

- It's not getting any easier to make money in property in the UK
- Regulations and higher taxes are everywhere, making a real nuisance of themselves
- But with the right approach, any idiot could still succeed!
Don't you just hate it when you meet or hear about someone who has made millions in property – someone who does not seem especially smart – with few talents, no qualifications and no silver spoon in their mouth from birth.
Putting it politely, someone who seems kinda dumb.
You scratch your head, "How on earth did such a blooming idiot achieve such success?"
You speculate, "They must have done some serious jail-dodging stuff to get so far!"
Of course you shouldn't be hating; you should be appreciating…and working out how they got to be so successful whilst you have to use the loose change when you pop round to the corner shop.
The good news is that you too can earn big money in property without any exceptional knowledge, experience or skill. Nor does it require a ton of money.
It is about starting off on tried and tested firm foundations:
- Cultivating the right mindset which sees success as the result of hard work, not magic or luck
- Taking the time to learn the knowledge and strategies to be a property winner
- Taking the correct steps at every stage, relying on the help, advice and expertise of people who have done it before, got the t-shirts to prove it.
Property success can be broken down into 5 simple steps, steps even an idiot could manage without hyperventilating. Let's call them "the idiot's guide to making megabucks in property in 2019…in fact, in any year."
The 5 steps are:
1. Preparing properly before starting up
2. Deciding your investment approach
3. Choosing the property strategy or strategies most appropriate for you
4. Drawing up a written property plan
5. Operating professionally at all times
1. Preparing properly before starting up
You can't just jump into property, not any more. Full and thorough preparation is essential if you are not to fall flat on your face.
The days when anyone could buy a property and make serious money with no planning or preparation are long gone.
Yes, "idiots" can still make money in property – but not just any idiot!
Expertise and knowledge are more important than ever. "Preparing properly" is about two things:
- Education
- Securing expert advice and assistance.
In Terms of education, you should be educating yourself generally on all property matters or strategies you are looking to deal with. Resources to use include:
- Books
- E-books
- Magazines
- Courses
- Training
- Workshops
- Webinars
- Podcasts.
Further, you can join property groups such as Your Property Network (YPN) and Property Hub. In addition, you can get involved in forums and attend property meetings, where you may be able to meet or gain access to a range of property people including:
- Potential business partners or joint venturers
- Advisers
- Mentors
- Experts
- Workmen, builders and contractors.
In terms of securing expert advice and assistance, it is advisable to address these issues before you start on your first project.
At the very least you should speak to a lawyer, a mortgage adviser, an accountant and at least one property professional – such as a property mentor or coach – with knowledge and experience of the strategies you intend to take up.
2. Deciding your investment approach
The second simple thing you have to do is to decide your financial reasons or objectives for investing in property.
At its most basic, this is deciding what you are investing for:
- Income or
- Capital?
Further, you should decide whether you are investing for the:
- Long term or
- Short term?
Of course you should know what exactly you mean by "long" and "short" in terms of number of years.
Finally you should decide whether you want your involvement to be:
- Hands-on or
- Hands-free?
3. Choosing the property strategy or strategies most appropriate for you
The third step is identifying the property strategy or strategies best for you, taking into account the second step, your investment approach.
Think of a property strategy as nothing more than the way you make money from property. The different ways or strategies will have pros and cons in terms of the key factors in your investment approach:
- Income/capital
- Long-term/short-term
- Hands-on/hands-free.
You will select a strategy according to how much it meets your investment approach, goals or preferences.
Here is a brief summary of some of the most common property strategies and their relevant characteristics:
Buy to let – you buy a property and rent it out usually to a single person or family.
Buy to let is a long-term investment and can be (a) hands-on – if you manage the property yourself or (b) hands-free – if you hand over the running of the property to a managing agent.
Some locations and some property types will perform better than others in terms of income or capital growth.
HMOs – similar to a buy to let, but with the property having multiple occupants and so securing a higher rent.
The higher rent will appeal to you if your priority is maximising your rental income.
The higher rents will also boost the capital value of the property.
Serviced accommodation – similar to buy to let but with the addition of services (such as laundry, wi-fi, TV and cleaning). Occupiers, a bit like hotel guests, typically stay for short periods.
Serviced apartments can attract even more lucrative rents than HMOs and are all the rage at the moment as landlords seek to super-size their rents in the face of a raft of unfavourable government policies against landlords – including the reduction of mortgage interest deductibility and the imposition of the 3% stamp duty surcharge.
If you want to gain maximum income from your property, operating it as serviced accommodation is the way to go – although it has to be said that there is a high risk of the government legislating away some of the advantages of this strategy in the not too distant future.
Buy refurbish refinance (BRR) – you buy a rundown property, refurbish it to add value, refinance it to take out some of the added value, and then let it out.
BRR is similar to buy to let except value is "forced upwards" after purchase – with any growth in value during the period of ownership being extra.
This is a great strategy for you if your priority is long term rental income, but you also want the chance to use some of the newly added equity to invest in your next purchase.
This is a powerful way to add to your portfolio after every refurbishment, and is the fast lane to property millionaire status for many property investors.
Flipping – flipping is basically BRR without the refinancing. Once the property is done up, it is sold – releasing the full equity or profit.
This is the strategy for you if you are looking to grow and recycle your capital, progressing to bigger and more lucrative projects each time.
It is a way to climb the property food chain, with bigger projects typically providing bigger gains or profits. Of course, they also present greater risks.
Flipping is a good strategy if you like the idea of property but don't want to deal with tenants.
A key part of choosing the right strategy for you is to seek and take expert advice in advance. If you need to pay for that, shying away at that point is unlikely to be your best ever decision.
Many would-be property millionaires who are "blooming idiots" end up looking on at others with insane jealously simply because they fail to properly explore and use start-up funds readily available to them.
Seed capital to get your property empire off the ground could come from countless sources, including:
- Selling, mortgaging, remortgaging or releasing equity from a property owned by you or a relative
- Securing an early legacy if one is due to you
- Accessing your pension or other lump sum available to you
- Disposing of high value assets which you don't need or use, especially if depreciating in value over time
- Private loans.
Any capital raising should of course be taken only after taking due professional advice.
4. Drawing up a good property plan
Once you have worked out the property strategy you intend to follow, the next step is to put it all down in writing in the form of a property plan, which you can refer to, review and revise over time as necessary.
A bunch of ideas and "a plan in your head" is no good – too easy for you to forget, veer off course and give up.
Being accountable to someone on your property journey (such as an adviser, coach or experienced property investor) is almost essential for your success.
"Blooming idiots" don't usually end up with a seven figure bank account because they listened to no-one, relied on no-one and did it their way like Frank Sinatra.
Your "accountability partner" can, with your commitment, use your property plan to guide, assess and measure your progress – making it more likely that you achieve your property goals.
They can help you when the going gets tough, providing that vital second option, getting you back on the right track.
5. Operating professionally at all times
The final step in the idiot's guide to property success is about not messing things up.
Over the last few years in particular, the government has brought in a formidable number of rules and regulations which impact on anyone renting out property.
If you want to build your property wealth with the minimum of red tape, avoiding tenants completely could make things easier for you.
But even without tenants, successful property investing requires high levels of ongoing professionalism if you are to minimise risks and stop things from going wrong.
To be successful in property investing, you need to adhere to the highest levels of professionalism in all your business activities.
You need to know the rules and regulations which apply to your business and apply them accurately, efficiently and effectively.
You need to have first class principles, practices, systems and procedures.
You particularly need to give priority to people management, budgeting, cashflow and taxation.
That way you are unlikely to come a cropper by ending up in court or, worse still, finding yourself in an intractable financial tangle where insolvency or financial ruin is your only way out.
Yes, the essential 5 steps to becoming a property millionaire are few and simple. But you should not under-estimate them.
"Simple" doesn't necessarily mean "easy" or "inevitable".
Idiots more than most need to be smart if they are not to be epic fails!
But if you follow and master the 5 steps, seeking and following expert advice and assistance at every stage, you are more likely to succeed than fail.
Pretty soon you could be that "blooming idiot" someone else is looking at enviously…wondering how on earth someone so unexceptional ended up as a property multi-millionaire!

You all do wonderful work and I have download a numerous amount of AFCAD/Scenery from all of you within the last few months.The question and request is:Do any of you plan on doing a nice scenery/AFCAD update to KFLL -Ft. Lauderdale, FL? Something to the effect of what Ray Smith did for KTUS.Something to spice it up a little bit(Parking garage, parking lots, etc.). Perhaps even a photo underlay of the airport defined by the surrounding freeways. I am surprised that this airport seems to get little attention by the payware guys and so far for FSX the freeware guys. Someone did a nice little upgrade for FS9 that looked good but was an FPS killer.Thanks for all the stuff you guys have done so far.Regards,Sean Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Series features in 15-race event weekend at Pittsburgh International Race Complex
WAMPUM, Pa. [August 1, 2018] – For the first time in the history of the Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli, teams and competitors are descending on Pittsburgh International Race Complex for the Keystone Speedfest The 15 race weekend will feature Trans Am's TA, TA3 and TA4 classes, Formula Promotion's F1600, F2000 and Atlantic Championship series, the F3 US Championship and the debuting F3 Americas Championship.
For another first in Series history, Trans Am will host an independent TA3 and TA4 class competition, giving Trans Am's production-based classes their own opportunity to shine on the 2.78 mile, 19 turn "full track." As a result, the TA class will also run on their own, marking the first time since 2010 that the class has raced solo. Both races will span 100.8 miles.
As the Trans Am Series approaches its midway point, defending TA class champion Ernie Francis, Jr., in the No. 98 Frameless Shower Doors Ford Mustang, holds the class points lead, 31 points ahead of Chris Dyson, in the No. 20 @PlaidCrafts Ford Mustang. Together the two have monopolized the top spot of the podium over the initial four rounds, with Dyson taking Road Atlanta and Francis Sebring, Homestead-Miami and Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Looking to bring a fresh face to the winners' circle will be Canfield, Ohio's David Pintaric, in the No. 57 Kryderacing Cadillac CTS-V. All of 40 minutes from his front door, Pitt represents an opportunity for Pintaric to race in his backyard on his home track. It is also a chance to bolster his current championship points, with the No. 57 currently residing third in the standings, just four points behind Dyson.
Everything looked like it was coming together for Lawrence Loshak last round at Indianapolis Motor Speedway for a career-first TA class victory; however, his No. 2 Pennzoil/ ETE/ GoShare Chevrolet Camaro was sidelined by mechanical issues while holding a comfortable lead. Now Loshak and the No. 2 gets a shot at redemption and a chance to prove why his was the team to beat in Indy.
Amy Ruman, in the No. 23 McNichols Company Chevrolet Corvette, enters Pitt riding a streak of two consecutive podium finishes, a third at Homestead-Miami and a second in Indy. Now the former two-time champ gets a chance to continue that streak at nearby Pitt, then at her home track of Mid-Ohio next round.
Other TA class competitors entered include Ryan McManus, Kerry Pitt, Richard Grant, Simon Gregg, John Baucom and Jim McAleese. Pitt will mark the season debut for both McManus and McAleese.
A last minute updated to the entry list marks the inclusion of Paul Fix, in the No. 4 StopFlex/Ave Racing Ford Mustang, adding another proven race winner to the TA class competition.
TA3 class competition will see the addition of 2017 TA4 class championship winning team DWW Motorsports, with Brian Kleeman, in the No. 07 DWW/RaceTech/Expoit Ford Mustang, and Chris Outzen, in the No. 09 DWW/itrackzone/PFC Ford Mustang making their class debuts. Kleeman, the 2017 TA4 champ, was dominant throughout last year's season winning seven of the 12 rounds of competition.

Overtime Pay. Did You Know?
Only hours actually worked count toward overtime when determining if employees are owed time and a half for hours over 40 in a workweek. For instance, if Monday was a paid holiday observed by the company—meaning no one worked and everyone got paid—a non-exempt employee could still work a full 40 hours in that workweek without being in overtime territory (barring any daily overtime that might be applicable).
In the case of a paid 8-hour holiday and 40 hours of work, the employee would receive 48 hours of straight time; the breakdown of holiday pay and regular pay should be reflected on their paystub to avoid confusion and fend off future wage claims. The same applies to vacation time, sick time, and other non-working leaves—the overtime premium only applies if more than 40 hours of real work are done.

Illumining and inspiring stories about our pioneer runners, handlers and staff.
Read about Dipali Cunningham: "It's not easy to break a world record." Once long ago Sri Chinmoy told this to Dipali Cunningham as she set one of her many world bests. It is also not easy to run 446 miles over 6 days as she did here in Flushing Meadow today.
And hear her audio interview...
For more on the following runners:
Alex Swenson, Manjula, John Geesler, Nishima, Shashanka, Smarana, Dharbasana, Barbara Szeprethy, Bigalita, Marvin Skagerberg, Fred Davis, Misha Ukrainskyi, Barney McBryde, Pete Stringer
Click on individual photo to hear audio interview...
Read about Yuri Trostenyuk: "To me it is an inexplicable mystery that the first 3 men in the 10 day race are not only from the same country, Ukraine, but also that they come from the same small city, Vinnitsa. If that were not enough to make you scratch your head in amazement, there are also 2 other citizens of Vinnitsa in the race...."
Read about Dipali Cunningham: "She is not just the leading woman in the 6 day race, Dipali Cunningham 51 from Melbourne Australia is the leader overall. In so many ways it is this race that is the focus for her of an entire years worth of training..."
What is it like for our runners and staff during the night: "When the sky is bright and the air is fresh and warm it easy to see how and perhaps why 68 runners would choose to be part of this amazing world of self-transcendence running. I am at the race now though in the dwindling seconds of a Saturday night, which in moments, will stride into the even inkier dark wet blackness of a dismal Sunday..."
Read about Alex Swenson: "He is the new kid on the 6 day block, but you would never know it. He is moving easily here around the course on this gorgeous Saturday afternoon without any signs of wear and tear. It is really hard to believe, as he runs so effortlessly now, that he has been at this for more than 24 hours.
About Smarana... "The very need to run is a primal aspect of our beings. It hearkens back to a long ago ancient time when the ability to run was an integral part of our makeups...."
Six Day Race Start: "At noon time today, the second great wave of runners stepped off from the starting line in Flushing Meadow. There were 40 in total and under bright sunny skies they set off on a journey that will not be completed until 144 hours have passed..."
About our cooks..."The race is heading into its 3rd day now and the sun bright weather of the past 2 days took a decidedly damp turn this afternoon..."
Some opening thoughts on the beginning of the race..."I don't know what you did last night but I have a good idea what 29 ten day runners in Flushing meadow did. As the warm bright afternoon of their first day settled away and was replaced by a still cool night, the true enormity of their task truly opened up in front of them..."
Read about Igor Mudryk from Vinnitsa Ukraine: "There are times when you just know that something special is happening. The Self-Transcendence 6 and 10 day race is just a few hours old and already 36 year old Igor Mudryk from Vinnitsa Ukraine seems to be doing something above and beyond everyone else in the field.
Beautiful Flushing Meadow Park ..."The skies are fresh, bright, and clear over Flushing Meadow today. Below, by the rippling waters of Meadow Lake, the walkers and the gawkers are out and about enjoying an usually early spring. One in which the flowers have emerged much ahead of schedule."

Product Market Fit
This week's episode is the first in a series highlighting the Catalyst Sale practice areas.
Catalyst Sale works with organizations to determine Product Market fit before making investments in expensive sales resources. We help validate your sales readiness and build out your initial sales strategy.
We do this via a 60 to 90 day engagment, where we will...
- Evaluate Product Capabilities through testing
- Validate defined use cases with external customers
- Deliver a Gap Analysis with and action plan
Founders/CoFounders and entrepreneurs are optimistic when it comes to product market fit. The product you have created may pass the family test, but have you been able to get customers outside of your network to purchase?
Can you relate to any of these statements?
- We've identified product market fit, but…
- We are not seeing adoption
- Users do not stay engaged
- Customers are not spending money
- Metrics do not align with our original expectations
- Our focus changes quarterly, monthly, weekly
- We don't know where to start
- We've started, but we are not making progress
As we go through the process we assess readiness. We test assumptions, identify use cases, and test these use cases in real world scenarios outside of the bubble.
Listener questions are great, please send them to firstname.lastname@example.com or contact us directly on twitter, facebook or LinkedIn.

The President of Qualcomm Greater China, Mr. Wang Xiang, has left the company to join Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi as its senior VP of strategic cooperation. Both companies involved have verified the news in separately released statements. Qualcomm further announced that Frank Meng, thus far the President of 21Vianet Group in Beijing, will be joining Qualcomm China as its Chairman. Meanwhile, Xiaomi's founder and CEO Mr. Lei Jun released a statement confirming the appointment of Mr. Wang Xiang at his firm, saying, "I believe that with Wang Xiang's excellent leadership skills, over 20 years of experience in the industry, and close ties with players within the mobile ecosystem, he will be able to steer Xiaomi to the next level of success in strategic cooperation and establishing important partner relations. He was the one who successfully helped Qualcomm establish a strategic cooperation with Xiaomi, which has only deepened over time".
Mr. Xiang worked for thirteen years at Qualcomm, and assumed leadership of the company's Greater China operations in 2010. Qualcomm's global President Mr. Derek Aberle released a statement thanking Mr. Xiang for his work at the company, saying "Under Xiang's leadership, the Company has contributed extensively to the growth and success of the mobile and semiconductor industries in China. Xiang has contributed greatly to these achievements. I'd like to thank Xiang for his more than a decade of hard work and wish him the best in his future endeavors". Qualcomm is one of the major suppliers for Xiaomi, and many of the company's current smartphones including flagships Mi Note and Mi Note Pro are powered by Qualcomm chips. While such appointments may be seen in some quarters as blatant poaching, leading to unease and strained relationships, both companies, at least outwardly, maintained a dignified silence and indeed, even passed of the developments as "a sign of continued cooperation".
In related news, Mr. Frank Meng has re-joined Qualcomm after a hiatus of four years, having previously worked with the company for eight years, serving as its senior Vice-President of Chinese operations from 2008 to 2010. Mr. Meng left the company in 2010 for Motorola Mobility, where he served as the President of Greater China. He later joined 21Vianet Group in Beijing as its President, and was responsible for strategic planning, branding and marketing. He also looked after the company's relations with the public sector, and was in charge of government affairs and strategic initiatives at the company.

Mac App - Avoid downloading notes offline (avoid local storage)
meny posted a topic in Mac ArchivesHello! In order to save space on our MacBooks I would love to have an option in the OS X App to stop storing everything locally, instead access notes from the web. I think as we are moving our stuff to the cloud, we may rely less and less on local storage in the future and instead have gigabytes of data always available in the cloud. I myself only use Evernote in this way and it is the reason why I have to put up with the web interface, which although nice, logs me out each week and an app interface (just like on my iPhone & iPad) would be the preferred option. Your thoughts? Roman
ios Lost data/note on save with iPad
meny replied to vududeman's topic in Evernote for iOSHappened to me, too. I inserted several tiny (100px wide images) to illustrate my point in the text. Then I opened the text in iPad and gone they were. Since I'm not a premium user, the image parts of the whole document have been erased. Is this OK?
Windows (Archived) REQUEST: Portable Version
meny replied to vogelap's topic in Windows ArchiveI'm also dependent on a portable solution or no-admin-rights-required version, something like dropbox installer. There the installer will first ask for system permission, if a "no" is given, it'll continue and install it with [i guess] some features disabled. But it works very well. A fully portable ZIP file would be even better. Many many people work in enterprises with no admin rights, locked down windows behind proxy servers. The only option is evernote web, which is wonderful, but not all powerful.

GUEST COMMENTARY: Speak up in support of the University of Alaska
Posted Wednesday, April 19, 2017 - 1:08 pm
It is time to speak up to support the University of Alaska. By 2025, 65 percent of the jobs in Alaska will require some form of postsecondary education. The last time this was measured, just 37 percent of Alaskans held a degree and only 50 percent had some form of higher education. Alaska is facing large workforce gaps today and these will only grow if we can't educate and train our own residents to compete in an economy that increasingly demands, and rewards, higher education. The university has historically been a major economic driver and a primary source for developing Alaska's workforce. So when UA President Jim Johnsen asked us to co-chair the Alaska Public Higher Education Roundtable, we quickly agreed. We know that the university solves real world problems, produces an informed citizenry, and helps propel Alaska forward. We want our young people to study, work and stay in Alaska. A strong state university helps ensure that happens, and positions our people to build innovative new enterprises that will serve our state well into the future. Maintaining our global leadership in Arctic research also is essential. The university is the number one Arctic research institution in the world, but it needs our support to remain competitive. There is a direct correlation between educational attainment and income. Education builds a stronger, more diversified economy and healthier, more engaged citizens who give back to the communities in which they live and work. That's great for families, businesses, and our state. However, our university faces a series of challenges: Alaska's low high school graduation and college going rates, the university's land grant deficit (only Delaware received less than we did), recent state budget cuts, and a rapidly changing economy, which will demand a more highly educated workforce. The University of Alaska is facing these issues head on, but it is being hit by year-over-year budget reductions. Over the last three years the university's budget has been cut by $52 million dollars. As a result, there are 927 fewer people working at UA today than in 2015, 50 academic programs have been suspended or discontinued, fewer classes are offered, less research is being done, and fewer Alaskans are being educated. Through our engagement with the university, we know that it is proactively pursuing several worthwhile strategies to diversify and increase its revenues, reduce its costs, and gradually moderate its reliance on state funding. These include: • Increasing enrollment through aggressive recruitment and online programs • Building stronger partnerships with Alaska's school districts • Growing research capacity and investments • Eliminating unnecessary redundant programs and services • Cutting administrative overhead • Increasing public/private partnerships • Increasing philanthropic support • Addressing its land grant deficit • Looking out 10 years to make sure Alaska's long term education needs are met However, the university still relies on the state for an important part of its funding. The legislature should give the university ample time and the funding needed to continue the progress it is making to pursue these worthwhile strategies. The Alaska Public Higher Education Roundtable agrees that it takes a great university to build a great state. The University of Alaska changes lives and creates economic opportunity at a time when our state desperately needs it. Let's show our support. ^ Aaron Schutt and Ed Rasmuson are the co-chairs of the Alaska Public Higher Education Roundtable.

Open letter to Legislature: 2017 is last chance for hard choices
Posted Tuesday, January 17, 2017 - 4:45 pm
Dear Alaska Legislators, We know each of you wants to do what is best for our state's long-term future. We all want jobs for Alaskans, a healthy economy, a stable state fiscal structure that helps attracts private investment to Alaska, and quality education and public services to serve the needs of our residents. We are encouraged when we hear legislators talk about Alaska's long-term economic health. But we are discouraged that we are running out of time to accomplish the one goal that must underpin all the others — a stable fiscal structure for our state treasury. We write you today to once again offer our encouragement, with an emphasis on the urgency of the situation as you prepare for the 2017 legislative session. We are sharing this with the public because Alaskans need to understand this is a critical time for our state. We've grown wealthy from oil development, and we all hope for decades more of oil and gas production in Alaska. But the time has come for a diversified revenue stream into the state treasury, and Alaskans must support their legislators in making the hard decisions ahead. The facts are clear: • The fiscal 2017 state unrestricted general fund budget is about $4.36 billion. • Even with higher oil prices of recent weeks, it looks like the FY17 draw on savings to cover the budget will total close to $2.92 billion. • With that math, the state expects to start the fiscal year 2018 on July 1, 2017, with perhaps $3.7 billion remaining in the Constitutional Budget Reserve. • Prudent fiscal and cash management requires we keep at least $2 billion in the budget reserve, which means Alaska must make changes to its fiscal structure during the 2017 legislative session. • If the budget reserve disappears as an option for covering the state's needs, the Permanent Fund earnings reserve becomes the only alternative. As of Nov. 30, 2016, at approximately $8.8 billion in realized gains, that reserve account looks healthy but is always susceptible to investment volatility, and any unplanned withdrawals could jeopardize the Permanent Fund dividend. It appears to many Alaskans that nibbling at the edges of the problem in the 2017 legislative session and drawing $2 billion to $3 billion from the budget reserve for one more year would bring the state perilously close to writing unplanned checks out of the Permanent Fund. It's time for a managed answer, not a default answer, and we urge you to take action and assure you we will support you in that effort. The options for a long-term fiscal plan are the same ones Alaska has been looking in the past several years. We see four major pieces to any solution: • An orderly, responsible, managed use of Permanent Fund earnings, including a change in how the dividends are calculated. We cannot spend the same dollar twice, which means a dollar that goes to schools, roads, troopers, the courts and other public services cannot also go to dividends. Legislators are fully aware that choices must be made. If, for example, the Legislature adopted a percent-of-market-value approach to limiting the annual withdrawal from the Permanent Fund, and if that were set at 4.5 percent of the fund's average market value looking back five years, the maximum draw for fiscal 2018 would be about $2.43 billion. And if, for example, you wanted to maintain a $1,000-per-person dividend from that total, that would leave about $1.73 billion for public services. • An orderly, responsible, managed examination of state spending and potential for further budget reductions in the range of $250 million to $500 million implemented over two to three years to lessen harm to the economy and allow the public, municipalities and businesses time to prepare for reduced services. • A responsible broad-based tax, such as a modest personal income tax on Alaska's higher income earners and/or a sales tax that would accomplish several goals: 1) Give all Alaskans a personal stake in how state money is spent; 2) Collect income from nonresidents who come to Alaska to work, and go home to spend their money; and 3) Help diversify state revenues from our total dependence on natural resource prices and investment earnings. • Excise and industry-specific taxes of perhaps $100 million a year on motor fuels, alcohol, tobacco, fisheries and mining. Here is the math for the current set of options: $4.36 billion fiscal 2018 state unrestricted general fund budget using fiscal 2017 as the base. • $1.59 billion in general fund revenues (assuming today's improved oil prices remain) • $250 million to $500 million in additional budget cuts, including re-examining oil and gas tax credit policy • $1.73 billion in Permanent Fund earnings, after paying a $1,000 dividend • $500 million in new revenues (income and/or sales tax, higher excise taxes and industry taxes, including expansion of the corporate income tax to cover LLCs and S Corps.) That still leaves a $40 million to $290 million shortfall, which we could work to close over the next few years. By taking action on the major pieces above, we gain some time. Meanwhile, we should not forget that the state needs to deal with the hundreds of millions of dollars we owe to companies for unpaid oil and gas tax credits. We need to resolve that debt if we're to truly solve our fiscal problems. And we need to remember that, because it will take time to implement any new taxes and to collect on other changes in Alaska's tax structure, we should expect a larger drawdown on our budget reserves in fiscal 2018 as the changes take effect. The budget reserve, however, can only afford a limited future drawdown, so we need to make the big decisions in 2017 that will extend the life of the reserve to give us the time to put our state on a path to fiscal stability. There isn't enough time for new oil or triple-digit prices to save us. That's wishful thinking, and we need responsible decisions based on today's reality. We support you in the challenges ahead, and urge you to make those decisions in 2017. Anything else puts the future of our state at risk. Ed Rasmuson is a retired banker.

Imagine if your school teacher was an emcee and the subject he taught was hip-hop. Well for some lucky students, that dream is now a reality, because Asheru teaches in Washington DC. For 13 years he has taught as well as produced incredible hip-hop music. And after feeling aggrieved with the education system failing to connect with the youth, he has created H.E.L.P. standing for "Hip Hop Educational Literacy Program".
His idea was simple, to engage students with books filled with their favourite hip-hop lyrics and therefore they will get the oppurtunity to learn important tools like literacy analysis. Asheru is sure to pick songs and artists of the highest calibre such as Nas and Common. While the books themselves have been endorsed by Krs-One (pictured above with Asheru) and Dr. Cornel West of Princeton University. NBC recently picked up the story:
Aside from making a real difference to the youth, Asheru's music is critically acclaimed by fans of underground hip-hop. He wrote and performed the theme song for the popular 'Boondocks' cartoon. While many proclaim his debut LP "Soon Come" to be a classic album. Recently Asheru released a stand alone single which featured an emcee from South Africa as part of his project to unify hip-hop globally. Here you can listen to Asheru (verse 3) on his brand new single 'Love On The Go':

Rapper COREY MILLER will spend the next 10 years behind
Rapper COREY MILLER will spend the next 10 years behind bars after pleading no contest to charges of second degree murder dating back to 2002. Miller, formerly known as C-Murder, was hit with the charges following the death of a 16 year old during a brawl at a New Orleans, Louisiana nightclub in 2002. He was convicted in 2003 and handed a life sentence, but it was overturned in 2006 after he had spent three years in a Louisiana prison. A new trial was granted based on claims prosecutors improperly withheld criminal background information on three of their witnesses. Miller was placed on house arrest pending the retrial, which was due to begin this week, with jury selection scheduled for Tuesday (26May09). But he reportedly struck a deal with prosecutors on Wednesday (27May09) and has pleaded no contest to the two counts of attempted murder. As per the agreement, Miller will be sentenced to 10 years in prison but the term will not be handed down officially until 25 August (09), when State District Judge Tony Marabella will formerly sentence the star. Prior to the agreement with prosecutors, Miller the brother of hip-hop entrepreneur Percy Miller was facing a mandatory life sentence if convicted of teenager Steve Thomas' death.

7 Meals in 1 Hour Slow Cooker Crockpot Freezer Meals. Slow Cooker Paleo Jalapeno Popper Chicken Chili. Fall, football games, and chili season is JUST around the corner.
Here's a delicious, hearty, bean-less chili recipe made in the slow cooker with ground chicken, ground beef and sweet potatoes – the perfect combination from Juli Bauer's Paleo Cookbook. This might be the easiest slow cooker chili recipe I've ever made because it's very little prep! Just throw all the ingredients into the slow cooker – no need to brown the ground meat or any of the other ingredients first. After the meat cooks, you then break it up with a wooden spoon – genius!
I wasn't sure how this would turn out, so I did break the meat up in the slow cooker with my hands so it wasn't a big chunk of meat. This was pretty spicy, the original recipe calls for 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes plus two jalapeños.

Patrick's Day is almost here, a day when all Irish love to celebrate their heritage — and the rest of us join the party. A lot of attention is always paid to the drinks involved in that celebration, but I, of course, think more about the food. One of my favorite foods to cook and eat for St. Patrick's Day is traditional corned beef and cabbage. It's one of the most delicious and satisfying home-style main dishes I know, a comforting and nourishing combination of lean brine-cured beef brisket, slowly braised in broth and beer with a generous assortment of vegetables, including big wedges of cabbage. For a holiday that comes a few days before the official end of winter, it perfectly bridges the two seasons. Cooking corned beef and cabbage can have its challenges, the biggest being how long it can take to simmer that big piece of meat to absolute tenderness — generally, at least three hours for a 3-pound brisket.
Let me offer a couple of important tip for success: Makes 6 to 8 servings. Easy Instant Pot Beef Stew. So you might be asking what is Instant Pot beef stew.
The Instant Pot is a pot that functions as a slow cooker, a pressure cooker, a rice cooker, it makes congee and more, and how does it work? It works brilliantly. I was looking to replace my pressure cooker with something that could multi-task. I found it. No, this isn't a paid endorsement. Tonight, I had to cook a roast. Tonight's inspiration was from my father's parents. I did pressure cook my stew twice. What I like about using the Instant Pot it is that is a safe, easy way to pressure cook.

We were blessed with cooler weather than we normally have.
We did have a little rain, but nothing to close anything down.
Here is a little view of our week!
Tuesday: first day horseshow
Thursday: goat (wasn't there so no pics) and cattle show.
Friday night: rodeo
Saturday: Farm Olympics hosted by Alex's FFA
(more PW action on this one)
As always, I'm happy when this week is over so we can get some rest!
Today was spent doing our biggest community service activity for 4H, we clean the entire fairgrounds. Picking up trash from the midway and rodeo is not a pleasant experience I can tell you, but it is nice to be able to give back to our community in this way and when everything is cleaned up and back in its place it is quite rewarding!
I'll end with this old phrase:
Give a Hoot, Don't Pollute!
Please, when you are out at a public place or event, throw your trash in the nearest receptacle. Someone WILL have to pick it up at some point!

Student Tax Reporting Information - 1098-T
As required by the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Form 1098-T is mailed by Jan. 31 to all students who had qualified tuition and other related educational expenses paid during the previous calendar year, with one exception. International students (nonresident aliens) will be provided a 1098-T form, only if the university has a Social Security Number (SSN) or an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) in the Student Information System for them.
The 1098-T form is informational only and should not be considered as tax advice - please see the IRS website for tax information. It serves to alert students that they may be eligible for federal income tax education credits such as the American Opportunity Credit and the Lifetime Learning Credit as part of their Federal Income Tax Return. IRS Publication 970, "Tax Benefits for Higher Education," as well as Chapter 35 of IRS Publication 17, provide additional information on these credits. While it is a good starting point, the 1098-T, as designed and regulated by the IRS, does not contain all of the information needed to claim a tax credit. To determine the amount of qualified tuition and fees paid, and the amount of scholarships and grants received, a taxpayer should use their own financial records. There is no IRS requirement that you must claim the tuition and fees deduction or an education credit. Claiming education tax benefits is a voluntary decision for those who may qualify.
The 1098T form contains important information for the calendar year, which may be needed to complete either your or your parent's tax return.
Delivery Information:
Your 2018 1098-T form will be mailed by January 31, 2019 to your mailing address. In prior years, you were able to access your 1098-T form electronically. Unfortunately, this year, due to unanticipated changes in the reporting system our vendor uses, the online delivery option is not available.
Prior year 1098-T forms are available online by logging into Get My Document.
Changes in Reporting Method:
In previous years, your 1098-T included a figure in Box 2 that represented the qualified tuition and related expenses (QTRE) we BILLED to your student account for the calendar (tax) year. Due to a change to federal reporting requirements, beginning with tax year 2018, we will report in Box 1 the amount of QTRE you PAID during the calendar year.
Depending on your income (or your family's income, if you are a dependent), whether you were considered enrolled full or half-time, and the amount of your qualified educational expenses for the year, you may be eligible for a federal educational tax credit. You can find detailed information about claiming education tax credits in IRS Publication 970 Tax Benefits for Education.
The dollar amounts reported on your Form 1098-T may assist you in completing IRS Form 8863 Education Credits. This is the form used for calculating the educational tax credits that a taxpayer may claim as part of your tax return.UW-Superior is unable to provide you with individual tax advice, but should you have questions, you should seek the counsel of an informed tax preparer or adviser. View FAQs.
Below is a blank sample of the 2018 Form 1098-T for your reference. For more information about Form 1098-T, visit https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-1098-t.

Fort Calgary
In 1875, amid a sea of scarlet jackets and thundering hooves, "F" Troop of the North West Mounted Police crossed the Bow River to build Fort Calgary. Under the command of Inspector Ephrem Brisebois, they were instructed to suppress whiskey traffic along the Bow River. They choose a location at the forks of the Bow and Elbow Rivers to build their fort.
The construction of Fort Calgary was hastily completed in about six weeks. In 1882, the fort palisade was torn down and the new substantial buildings of Calgary Barracks were constructed. A fire destroyed one of the men's barracks a few years later and it was replaced by an impressive two-storey building that could house 100 men.
The Grand Trunk Pacific Railway bought the land in 1914 and demolished all the fort buildings except Superintendent Deane's house.
For more information, please visit www.fortcalgary.com
What to Explore:
- Try on a Northwest Mounted Police Uniform.
- Hear fascinating stories of the Northwest Mounted Police Officers and other characters from Calgary's past.
- Experience a jail cell - from the inside!
