Chronic Care Management in Long Term Care
There is perhaps no population of patients who can benefit from chronic care management more than long term care residents. Long term residents of nursing facilities typically have more than six chronic conditions, and many are affected by memory impairment, gait disorders and mood disorders. Dedicated nursing staff, caregivers and practitioners do their best to provide sound management for this frail population. However, when practitioners round on their long term care patients, often there are acute issues that must be managed. So, often the patients goals of care, advanced care plan, emergency plan for flares of chronic conditions and other important areas may not be as regularly addressed as the should. This is where chronic care management can help.
In March of 2016, Medicare clarified that residents of long term care facilities (as well as assisted livings) are indeed eligible for CMS's chronic care management program. The program can provide your patients an overarching "CCM Medical Management Plan" while providing your group a valuable new recurring revenue source. At Chronic Care Management, LLC we uniquely understand the long term care population: we have practiced in it, and are dedicated to best-in-class CCM in LTC program development for your practice. We are currently working with a number of long term care practices of various sizes–from small group to large national practice–and have developed leading workflow solutions in this unique space. We can help your practice succeed with CCM in long term care.

Google Plus is again in Beta with some dramatic changes. I haven't openly commented three weeks ago, when they launched this version because it's an experiment. Google Plus architects claim it's based on people feedback. The thing is that people who gave feedback usually know how to complain for every constructive change trying to dump it asap, and when idiotic changes like this new UI interface appear, they "love it". It is incredible!
Google Plus has never consulted the masses when it changed something, it pretends to be the ultimate technical tool for sharing content, and the greatest social network ever created on Earth. They have unsuccessfully tried to match Facebook from day one, and when they couldn't really match it, they copied features and made the site at least to look like Facebook. They haven't adverts on the sidebar, but they tried to make you to endorse adverts with your Google Profile. They unified all Google services under the same G+ umbrella, with a sort of common API, and now they crashed it again, literally. You have to click more to find less! It was not enough, it is never enough. If the new UI which is now in Beta stays, Circle management will be out, hover cards will be out, bio will be out. What will matter will be your collections, their content will be seen by your followers and collections' followers, which is a dumb move. If your collections are featured, almost every newcomer will follow them because he can't figure out what exactly is a collection, nor if it's good or not. Anyway, the most important thing that's out, is YOU. In, is only your content. You don't matter anymore, and to make things more confusing, the relationship symbols under your avatar disappeared. You won't know if a certain person is following you back or not, because what matters is just your content.
Creating great products that solve real needs and make life easier for people is something Google is always striving for. Your feedback got us this far—as we continue to refine Google+, we'd love to keep hearing from you. In the meantime, we look forward to seeing how today's changes help kickstart even more conversations around everything from Zombie Cats to Vintage Calculators.
Posted by Eddie Kessler, Director of Streams
Above is the end of the official announcement about the change, published on the Official Google Blog they have on Blogger. I consider it another proof of disrespect for us, the users.
I couldn't find my "Story" on the "About" section, which is now moved on a subdomain. I found there only my other links. So, nothing "about me", the bio, the stuff which is like a card with what you are as a person on the internet or whatever. A lot of their hundreds of millions of users did not bother to complete something like this in the first place. A lot of Google Plus users want to keep their anonymity on the great site, because they still don't know what to do with it. These last changes which put the accent on content (great part of it unscrupulously just copied from the original creators) and eventually on sterile "discussions" are going to confuse any newcomer and even the older members. A lot of them just click the "plus one" button for the preview they see on the post, rarely read the post, and most of the time they even don't figure that the post is actually a link sending him/her to the website who published it.
If the Google Plus masters will decide to eventually leave it out, here's what is stated on my Bio:
Let Me Make Your Website!
More than a ship engineer with background in sea transportation, real estate, yacht brokerage, even industrial ocean fishing, and construction, mostly property development.
Movie lover and critic. Avid reader, traveled a lot. Scorpio, INTJ…
Never stopped learning.
I want to help you, with a very competitive and good looking blog! Please check Own Your Website! – A Way to a Better Blog! and contact me there.You won't regret! The connected page, is +Maximum Performance, an appropriate name for what you will have when you decide to work with me.
I have two blogs of my own, Rodolfo Grimaldi Blog and The Yacht Owner with their correspondent Pages: Rodolfo Grimaldi Blog G+ Page and The Yacht Owner G+Page respectively. I sometimes blog in Romanian, my native language, at Ipoteze despre concluzii.
I have been invited to moderate the following Communities:
Romania, G+ Pages Directory, and another two based on circle sharing.
I used to share my own circles with #danielmihaipopescusharedcircles and #maximumperformance
I have also used to share my friends' circles with great pleasure, but ceased to do that after a few months, for aesthetic reasons, and lack of time. They will understand 🙂
[Important Update – September 2015]
No more circle sharing on Google Plus, which is bad, especially for newcomers. Some people who never understood the beauty of quality circle sharing, invented the term "circle sharing jerks", which I found very offensive. A lot of them owed their new acquired popularity and great number of followers to quality circle sharing. When some of them became "verified accounts" and were put on SUL (Suggested Users List), the order doesn't really matter, they begun to advocate against circle sharing. They wanted to make a difference between them and the rest. Anyway, their feedback was listened to, and G+ architects eliminated the function.
I stand for the idea that for expressing yourself you need a site of your own. Google Plus is a great community, but if you want to remain somehow unforgettable, you need the support offered by your self owned site. On your website you can publish your own content, it will have your own design and nobody will cease to show it or to change the interface, or the way somebody will interact with it, except yourself. Your relevant content won't be visible for just a part of your friends, but for everybody who will look at it, or seek it. After you secure your content on your own website, you can fearlessly start to share it on Social Media 😄
I'm not new in Social Media, I value every connection I make and most of the time I can see the difference between genuine and fake without a specialized tool. I'd like to connect with you on all my other Social Media sites I treasure, on Twitter or Pinterest, even Facebook when I'll make my mind to put up an account there. I like you to visit my blogs and comment there, too.
[Important Update – November 2015]
G+ architects changed completely the User Interface, eliminating almost all the "social" elements of this (once) great Social Network. It's in Beta now, so maybe that's not all quite lost, but the changes are so radical that I'm afraid they will eventually become definitive. Guess who love the new UI and praise it in posts and comments? The same "advocates" against circle sharing, guys who really don't get it, and I'm lost of words…
My life is rich because I'm sharing it with +Adriana Popovici, my love, my partner, my soul mate, the air I'm breathing, my wonderful best friend, my everything.
Bragging rights
Seeking the hidden nature of things!
If you want to still make sense of your G+ account, keep it "classic", don't take the bait to change it to the new "look".
That was all for now. Instead of bitching about G+, I'll better start creating some really useful content which I'm gonna spread on Twitter, Pinterest and Facebook.
If you liked what you read (and for that I humbly thank you for your patience), subscribe to this blog by Email! Follow this blog on Twitter, on Facebook, and on Google+! For a joyous day, check out my pins on Pinterest or my grams on Instagram 😄. I hope you like this blog so much that you think it's time to take a step further by becoming yourself a blogger; in order to do that have the kindness to read the Own Your Website offer I have prepared for you! You won't regret. Thanks for passing by 😄 Speak your mind, don't be shy!

Are you having problems getting individuals to comment on your site posts? It's either your comment box is not working (which is highly unlikely) or you are not reaching the right control buttons. One of the most ignored ways of building stable viewers on a site is through the use of comment box.
There's simply no better way of evaluating your blog's health than by computing the actual number of individuals who are not only examining your articles, but are actually offering reviews and reviews. Below described are few tips which might get your comment box going…
Good excellent articles should be useful. But if it isn't able to tickle your reader's creativeness or depart them no road for pondering then your articles has only been effective in schooling which is excellent for anyone publishing it on Wikipedia.
Asking concerns at the end of the articles is the most immediate way of asking for your reader's reviews or reviews. These should be simple to answer but avoid using concerns that could be responded to by yes or no. Start finished concerns provide your visitors allows your visitors communicate themselves more easily and is builds a healthy atmosphere for conversation.
Everything begins with great articles. Create on subjects you experience highly about or trending subjects that produce your reader's views. However, this should be in line with your market and putting governmental concerns on a meals site is not a smart idea.
Again, a little bit of creativeness and research would help you come up with an exciting topic. Food weblogs for example could discuss debatable diets or meals dishes that are entirely peculiar to their visitors. The opportunities are unlimited and only your creativeness could stop you with coming up with a excellent topic.
The best way to get utilizing is to look at with your own comment. You could end the articles with a question or instantly publish a comment after the articles giving your individual viewpoint on the topic. Other methods involve delivering messages to your visitors telling them about the newest writing and asking them how they experience about it.
Most of the websites that provide a comment box require visitors to log in their private information which could be a bit of a move for anyone only planning to position a few terms or terms. Some weblogs even assist individuals to become lovers or become a member of the website before enabling them to comment.
Comments and reviews give you a further understanding into what form of viewers is examining your weblogs. This is why developing it simpler for individuals to position their reviews gives you a better look into what form of writing works for your site. A simple opt-in box asking them their contact and person name is a excellent way of developing commenting simpler while defending your site from trash reviews.
Taking a tip from conversation boards, developing commenting beneficial allows produce included interest among your visitors. This could be done by enabling them to involve hyperlinks or a trademark on their reviews. Creating a top list of commenter's and displaying it at the side bar for example is a wonderful way of displaying that you appreciate and recognize their initiatives. A individual contact allows develop believe in and create more powerful interactions with visitors.
Another way of alluring individuals to compose reviews on your weblogs and bring customers is to become an dynamic commenter yourself. Giving your opinions with other site owners and alluring them to visit and comment on your site allows develop more powerful connection with other people.

New Delhi�s own initiatives in Kashmir have also not led to a breakthrough. While there seems to be a new re solve within the Central government to combat militan cy in the state, it is still not clear whether there is a well thought out long term plan to restore peace in Jammu and Kashmir. Indeed, the last year has demonstrated that ad hocism has continued to define New Delhi�s policies to wards the state. Policies are often initiated on the basis of insufficient evidence, and imaginative measures are rarely given enough time to bear results. The unilateral ceasefire announced last November was implemented halfheartedly and was abandoned without a careful eval uation of the adverse impact that the decision would have on popular opinion. It is also clear that the Agra summit was conducted without much preparation and New Delhi�s invitation to Mr Pervez Musharraf was not root ed in an adequate understanding of Pakistan�s percep tions. It is, of course, imperative that the security forces reestablish their authority, but it is equally important for New Delhi to articulate a series of policy initiatives that can win back the confidence of the people in Indian democracy and just governance. In his New Year mes sage last year, the Indian prime minister, Atal Bihari Vaj payee had written: .In our search for a lasting solution to the Kashmir problem, both in its external and internal dimensions, we shall not traverse solely on the beaten track of the past.. It is time to translate the promise of these .musings. into longterm policy initiatives to wards Jammu and Kashmir.
A few years ago, all this would have been considered normal. But the remarkable success the administration has achieved in the last two years in reducing sound pol lution makes this year�s failure rather striking. Besides, the discipline and comparative quietness with which Durga Puja was conducted this year gave reason to hope that such success had come to stay. The violations point up a number of things. In the first place, they are viola tions of a court directive, because it is the green bench of the Calcutta high court, besides the Supreme Court, which had come down heavily on sound pollution. Sec ond, the last two years and this year�s Durga Puja show that it is possible to implement these instructions, and the PCB and the police can do so if they so desire. It is dif ficult to understand what went wrong.The obvious laxity in those responsible for implementation of the rules and of doling out penalties during Diwali may have been a re sult of complacency. This is not an unfamiliar response, particularly in West Bengal. The problem is that the se cret of success in any disciplinary movement lies in un relenting vigilance till that particular discipline becomes a habit. Calcutta and its surroundings are still far from that happy state as far as sound pollution is concerned. The administration simply cannot afford to sit back now. Besides, there is popular awareness and support for the campaign to reduce sound pollution. By slackening, the police and the government will lose the popular sup port they have in the matter. Reducing sound pollution depends heavily on people�s awareness. Diluting it will put the process back further. Unless the decline is re versed, it will be possible to believe again that Calcutta can never change.
The premier business school in Eu rope, the International Institute for Management Development, selected the Murugappa Group this year, and its chairman till recently, M.V. Subiah, for an award for familyrun business. This is an old business family of South India, which after losing large investments in trade and real estate in Burma and Ma laysia, entered into manufacturing in vestments in India. A lowprofile and co nservative group, it started manufactur ing bicycles in an integrated operation that made almost everything that was re quired, from steel tubes to bicycle chains.
The operations were spread over many companies, each company having a male member of the family heading it. Unlike others in western and northern India, they did not borrow heavily for ex pansion and so their stake remained high. From the Seventies, when he began to exercise responsibility, Subiah developed the reputation of being a tough nononsense manager, delibera tive and firm on implementing a plan of action. The group expanded into new areas, mostly unsuccessfully, presum ably to give opportunity to the younger members of the family. Over time, the group exited from them. In the Eighties, the group got control of E.I.D. Parry, an old and highly diversified British com pany. Not only were its shares still quot ed on the London Stock Exchange, its managers followed the work culture and hierarchy of the British era.
Initially run by employee managers who could not turn it around, Subiah took over and brought his resultori ented nononsense approach to it. Soon, it was the flagship of the group. He in ducted highly qualified and experienced managers to run the different parts of this very diverse business, paid them well, but demanded results. It was possi bly this experience that convinced him to expand the supply of top managers from outside the family into the rest of the group. Today the family has dis tanced itself from operations and even from direction of the whole group, keep ing a mentoring role for itself.
There are other familycontrolled en terprises that are handing over to em ployees. However, most continue to de pend on the family for talent. At a confer ence on corporate governance in 1998, N.R. Narayanamurthy of Infosys, refer ring to his son, said, .Just by virtue of his being my son, I don.t think he has a right to be the chairman.. Rahul Bajaj responded that competence was vital today and if his son lost wealth for the family, the son would have to answer for that. Bajaj today is desperately trying to regain its position as the foremost two wheeler manufacturer in India, not hav ing invested in development and brand building when it was at the top.
Another lowprofile familycon trolled group, the Munjals, has taken over the position. They have other fami ly members in top positions and the com pany�s future success will be tested when the founder hands over. The Mun jals invested heavily in design and devel opment with Japanese collaboration, and into building their brands.TVS (ear lier also Suzuki) is run by the founder but with no other family member in it. How much real authority is invested in the managers is uncertain.
There is no doubting that the best run companies look for talent wherever it is available, not merely from within the family. The days when family mem bers had to be given top corporate posi tions so that they could live well are gone. Taxation is far lower and dividend income on shareholdings should keep families in comfort without their being active in the business. Businesses today are trying to replicate the conditions that enable family members to make mistakes and to learn from them, and to share experience.
The attempt is to develop entrepre neurial ability among employee man agers. But in familyrun businesses it is more difficult to develop among family members a sense that others might have better ideas.Arrogance is a weakness in many family businesses. In the famous words of Henry Ford III when he sacked Lee Iacocca, who had made Ford into a thriving empire, .Remember whose name is on the gate?. There is the story in the automotive industry of the family member who sacked the brightest man ager that he had done so because the manager did not automatically agree with the boss. The manager went on to join the competition and play havoc in the market with his previous company.
It is said that a family business rarely survives its third generation. By that time the vision, enterprise, ability to work hard, suffer hardships, the steely determination to succeed, have become diluted by automatic authority and easy living. The intelligent family will proba bly put its scions on a loose rein and let them choose whatever career they wish. If it is the family business, they have to be suitable for it.
One has to merely look at the dom inant names in Indian business twenty years ago that did not do so, to recognize the truth of this com ment. No one today is .born to rule. a business or anything else. There is no longer .a divine right. to do so. When India tried it as a country, we got the .Hindu. rate of growth of 3.5 per cent for three decades, the Emergency, over seas adventures and spendthrift habits with our foreign exchange reserves. When businesses try it, they die. We must join IMD in saluting the Murugap pa Group and Subiah. They have shown courage in withdrawing themselves from active roles in the business started by their fathers and grandfathers.Will they be able to stay away from it? Or will they, like the latest Mr Ford, find excuses to don the mantle once again?
It is at this point that we must note the relevance of the discussions on cor porate governance in India. Families in India rarely own all the shares in the businesses that they control. They are using public money from shareholders and through borrowings. With only a proportion of shares owned by them, they are able to exercise control. Many times, this is at the expense of the other shareholders.
There are innumerable companies that in Rajiv Gandhi.s words .are sick, but their owners (i.e. those controlling them) are not.. By promoting trans parency and maximum, if not full, dis closure, good corporate governance pre vents this exploitation of the others whose money is also in the business. These remarks are as relevant for gov ernmentowned enterprises.At least the family has a vested interest in the sur vival and growth of their business.
The civil servant and the politician, who take the place of the family, do not have any such longterm stake. Their interests are shortterm, for the duration that they have the responsi bility. Since they also control govern ment policy, they are able many times to show performance by giving the state owned enterprises special privileges. The lack of a real sense of the responsi bility and accountability of ownership is the single most important argument for privatization.
Families are as much the foundation of societies as they are of enterprises. But they must not be allowed to use their positions purely for their selfish advan tage.Nor must anyone else.

The ordinance defines terror ism as an act that involves the use of weapons of mass destruction, re sulting in death and injury to peo ple or the loss or damage of proper ty or the disruption of essential supplies and services. The maxi mum punishment for committing a terrorist act is death while the min imum is five years imprisonment. The police can detain a person for a period of three months without charging him and without a trial.
Organizations found guilty of raising money to facilitate terror ism will also come under the purview of this act. The govern ment will be empowered to seize the properties of terrorist outfits and their members. The act also makes it mandatory for a person possessing knowledge about a ter rorist activity to disclose all such information to the police. Failure to do so is punishable by imprison ment for three years or a fine. Fur ther, any confession made before the police will be admissible in a court of law.
Unsafe provisionsThere are certain builtin safe guards in the act that are aimed to prevent its misuse in the hands of law enforcement agencies. First, only a police officer above the rank of a deputy superintendent of po lice can arrest a person accused under this act.A report of the ar rest will also have to be sent to the director general of police and the review committee comprising of home and law secretaries, all of whom will determine the validity of the arrest. Moreover, confes sions made before the police will have to be recorded by a magistrate. These safeguards are, however, in adequate and the act may well be misused by the police to extract confessions from the accused.
The rash promulgation of the POTO cannot be justified on grounds of national security. There is no reason why the bill cannot be delayed beyond the winter session of Parliament. Any legislation that seeks to override ordinary crimi nal law and legal procedures should go through careful scrutiny before it is passed. It is astonishing that the government should try to pass this law without developing a consensus on the issue.
One must remember too that be fore it was withdrawn in 1995, the TADA had been in force for eight years. During that period, as many as 70,036 people were detained under it. Not even one per cent was convicted. In fact, the state with the highest number of TADA cases was neither Punjab, nor Jammu and Kashmir but Gujarat. The act was also used against minorities.
Look before we leapFurther, the argument that other democracies like the United States of America and Britain have laws that deal with terrorism is not ten able given that a law that reverses the onus of proof from the prosecu tion to the accused is likely to be misused. Such laws only succeed in arming the police with enormous powers that curb the rights of the citizens. That the police in our country do not command much credibility makes matters worse.
Moreover, once the ordinance comes into force, reporters would be forced to reveal their sources. In other words, a journalist may be jailed for talking to a member of a banned organization.
It is ironical that the Bharatiya Janata Partyled government should try to pass a legislation that bears a strong resemblance to the TADA,which the party had vehe mently opposed in 1994. The func tion of the review committee also seems to be ornamental, as there is no provision for the accused to make a representation before it. That the new law is nothing more than a preventive detention meas ure says very little in its favour.
Ultimately, the question that we need to ask ourselves is whether we need this law. Both Andhra Prad esh and Tripura,which have been troubled by militancy, are not in favour of such a harsh measure. No law, no matter how effective, can annihilate terrorism. The govern ment should have concentrated its efforts on streamlining the criminal justice system before thinking of passing an antiterror ordinance.
There is no old middle class Bangalorean who does not recall the time before traffic, when cars were few and far between, and walking was an unmatched pleasure. There is no new middle class Bangalorean for whom the state of the city roads is not the cause for .bitterness. about the state of this otherwise charming city. With the opening of the sec ond flyover and most of the ring road in Ban galore, there were rising hopes among some sections of the riding public in Bangalore that these abominable traffic conditions would be transformed.
The news that about 90 central roads are now going to be made one way streets must somewhat dampen their ardour. For too many people who have grown up in Banga lore, the proposed one way systems are a dis orienting experience, and render the city even more unfamiliar. The highpitched de mands for better roads have yielded little; if unwarranted profits and bribes were once cornered by small time contractors and petty politicians, today big companies and state level politicians enjoy even larger profits and bribes for the same indifferent product.
Time wounds all heels in this city.Roads in Bangalore seem to have taken on a scan dalous life of their own, stubbornly resisting repair efforts and impeding mobility rather than enhancing it. Bad roads have become a metaphor for corruption, for the impossibili ty of being .modern., and for the intractable problems posed by legal claims over land use in the city. In all this, the venal politician and his/her contractor are easily blamed.
There is the mistaken belief among the sections clamouring for immediate relief that improving the road surface will increase mobility, improve traffic conditions and re duce accident rates. What remains largely unquestioned is the need for intensified (pri vate) automobilization of a society that is wretchedly unequal and unjust, and where the majority of road users are pedestrians, cyclists, and bus riders, not car owners. Pleas that focus on the road as primary make road users into a secondary concern.
What we have witnessed in the past two decades in Bangalore is neither unique nor exceptional in the history of automobiliza tion of societies. Even the solutions seem to follow the tried and tested routes. Roads too narrow to take private car traffic? Remove the sidewalk. Not enough parking? Use the footpath. Too much traffic on certain routes at peak hours? Make them into one way sys tems. Introduce grade separators. Throw a ring road as a girdle around the vastly ex panding city. Ban slow moving vehicles from using certain roads. And for those who still talk about Mass Rapid Transit, build up the dream of an elevated rail system which can only be realized if large tracts of land are thrown in as an incentive for the developer. Meanwhile, Mysore will soon be another Bangalore layout, thanks to the proposed BangaloreMysore infrastructure corridor which will reduce travel time between the cities to an hour.
There is only cold comfort in such sug gestions, since the expressway may be ready only 13 years from now,well after many of us, not to speak of our vehicles, have passed on. This too, only if the state govern ment is determined to wear down the grow ing opposition to what is clearly an unjust and unviable scheme.The Karnataka govern ment, according to the public works minister, Dharam Singh, has handed over .5000 acres of land at a nominal rate, granted duty ex emption of 58 crores and is seeking Central clearance for 168 acres of forest land.: all this and more promised to an infrastructure com pany whose eyes gleam and mouth waters at the prospect of the five exclusive townships it plans to build along the expressway.
The dispossessed farmers meanwhile will be paid according to the .revenue code., mea gre compensation for rich irrigated lands. All this sacrifice to .save Bangalore., and for a barricaded toll road which will force farmers on either side of the road to trek long dis tances for the simplest daily needs.
What is disturbing is the ease with which planners, corporate groups and private vehi cleowning citizens concur that .the car is king., so that an increasing number of roads and highways must be sin gle purpose routes, reducing the multipurpose uses to which most Indian roads are currently put. Not only is there money to be made, but prestige and short term po litical mileage to be gained from such infrastructure schemes. Critics of such schemes will be dismissed as those who are bent on pre venting the Singaporization of Bangalore, killjoys who are repulsed by good clean progress.
How many of those who admire the spanking clean environment of Singapore will admit that facilities for mass rapid tran sit in that citystate are combined with severe disincentives to private car ownership and usage? Cars are heavily taxed (150 per cent), licences issued to the highest bidder and entering certain zones at peak hours is possible only at a formi dable price. (That there are innumerable cars despite this battery of disincen tives is a sign of much high er material standards.)
The example of the gas chamber called Delhi should be a good enough answer to those who seek flyovers as solutions to traffic problems. But there are excellent examples from elsewhere. Despite the speed with which flyovers and ring roads are constructed in major Chinese cities, stud ies reveal that far from improving travelling times and quality of life, the increase in road capacity actually induces greater private ve hicle usage, and increases travel times.
For instance, road area in Shanghai has been increased by 42 per cent between 1991 and 1997, and 400 roads have been designated as one way streets; yet the 1.3 mil lion vehicles only achieve speeds of 16 kilo metres per hour in peak hours. The compara ble rates for Beijing (1.2 million vehicles, 119 flyovers and 202 overpasses) are 1319 kmph; for Guangzhou, (vehicles 1 million) on cer tain trunk routes, 1821 kmph; for Shenzen (250,000 vehicles, 139 km of highways) 20 kmph. In other words, when all our flyovers, ring roads and one ways streets are in place, we will need to develop attitude, Road Zen in stead of Road Rage, perhaps, towards spend ing long hours in our vehicles.
The cost effectiveness and wisdom of metro rail and elevated rail projects have been repeatedly questioned, and doubts cast on whether they relieve congestion or de crease private vehicle usage. A recent thesis by Sanjeev Aundhe amply demonstrates this. Yet these gleaming dreams exert such a pow erful hold on our imaginations that they cast in the shadow the more achievable, afford able example of Curitiba in Brazil,which has developed an enviable public transport sys tem using buses at a fraction of the cost of ex pensive metro rail projects.
In Bangalore, nearly 60 per cent of trips are made on buses which account for less than two per cent of the vehicles on the road. Will the better road surface improve the con ditions of travel of this mass of bus users in the absence of systemic changes at other lev els? Will improved road surfaces place pedes trians and bicyclists on a safer plane? Is it so disgraceful to speak of the rights of nonmo torized vehicle users, who brave the greatest risks on our roads today?
The roads are an expression of the deep and systematic divisions of our society and perhaps the only encounter that many people have with the inequalities of our soci ety: riding in airconditioned comfort be tween airconditioned home and office, there is a brief encounter with the tedium of the road surface.
Some years ago, several chief executive of ficers of major companies at Electronic City on Hosur Road made a spectacle of repairing the road, and successfully drew attention to their commuting plight. Yet the latest crop of information technology companies who are held up as exemplars of good civic sense themselves add to the problem on Bangalore roads. There is widespread use of residential accommodation by small companies who clog small streets with their hire purchase ve hicles.
One of the newest and more menacing problems in the city today is the private bus operator who serves the new industries on the outskirts of the city, but enjoys rentfree parking on city roads and empty lots at night, even in residential areas.The privatized solu tion to the problem of transport thus relieves the company of its liabilities and transfers it on to the general public, while keeping the shining image of the good citizen intact. But the image of the city is not made up of road surfaces alone:we must be as ashamed by the sight of men and women who hang from every bus door on their way to work, humili ated by the sight of children who dart be tween speeding vehicles to cross the road, and angered at the sight of the bicycle rider poised between two moving vehicles.
Speaking of images brings to mind a late 19th century map of Bangalore whose most important feature was the dense blue network of tanks and connecting veins(tank systems), dotted with vineyards and gardens. Today the dominant coordi nates of the faceless urban sprawl called Ban galore are the roads: arterial roads, ring roads and highways, as well as crosses and mains, speaking of a new organization of so cial and economic space in the city. But the city is far too complex a space to be subordi nated to a system of roads through which some people have unrestricted ease of mo tion, at the expense of other people�s lives and livelihoods.
The politics of gasSir . It is heartening to see that the public in Bangladesh is react ing to news of gas exports to India with as much ignorance and prej udice as we would in a similar situation vis�vis Pakistan. Last Thursday, the Left Democratic Front in Bangladesh declared a strike to protest against Friday�s talks between India and Pakistan (.Strike over Bangla gas plans., Nov 16). Schools and businesses closed in Dhaka and some 60 other towns and cities. Rusty Antican, an executive of the com pany that plans to export the gas, had earlier made a revenue estimate that might have been expected to cut through the vagueness of .national interests.: $ 3.7 billion for the Bangladesh government. But the strike has gone ahead. All this might re mind one of our equally trenchant trade unions during the controversy of the Great Eastern Hotel�s takeover by the French company, Accor. Happily our current gov ernment has realized some of the financial benefits of private investment. Let us hope Bangladesh can also depoliticize its economics.
And the talk was goodSir . I was delighted with the outcome of the recently concluded World Trade talks in Doha (.Govt claims more give than take at Doha., Nov 17). Unlike the debacle of Seattle, two years ago,when developing countries walked away from the negotiating table, Doha saw construc tive alliances made to offset the bullying tactics of the industrialized nations. With assistance from South Africa and Brazil, India made significant gains on the issues of intellectual property. It was agreed that the patenting of drugs would become part of a flexible system where research costs will be reimbursed, but only to the extent where the developing nations. production of lifesaving drugs will not be jeopardized. Although this was more a recognition of the current status quo, its official stamp suggests that developing countries. concerns have achieved a new legitimacy.
The Union commerce minister, Mura soli Maran, also led a 12nation struggle against the European Union�s insistence that the next round of talks include a new range of issues. These include protecting investment, assuring the equal applica tion of competition, and the making of government procurement more transpar ent. The EU is widely seen by developing countries as trying to complicate and ob struct constructive dialogue on the issues already under negotiation . like the sen sitive subject of the subsidies used by the developed countries for agriculture and textiles. After the extension of talks by two days Maran had to settle for a veto clause on the new topics, and France was allowed to add wording to the agreement that would sufficiently blur any future demands for the abolition of its current agricultural subsidies.
It is, however, the developing coun tries. ability to work together, to insist on future agendas,which I take to be a con siderable success.We are finally using our numerical superiority in the 140 member body to reflect our views. And this situation can only be strengthened by the recent inclusion of China. In this context we don.t need to see China as a threat. Rather, they are new allies to help India in her battle against the strangle hold of the industrialized nations.
Sir . I would like to congratulate India�s commerce minister, Murasoli Maran, on his exemplary leadership at the latest talks of the World Trade Orga nization at Doha. Are we seeing the sort of leadership by Maran that might make him the Bharatiya Janata Party�s best hope for winning the next national elec tions? In Doha, he extracted from the in dustrialized nations a vital concession that the issues of investment and compe tition could be vetoed by any single na tion at the next round of talks in two years.
I read in your newspaper that Atal Bi hari Vajpayee was feted in London (.Lady and Miss at Atal durbar., Nov 14). But whilst Vajpayee was acting the pea cock, Maran was taking the offensive, looking at how the Kyoto Protocol . that great bane of the industrialized nations . might affect future WTO talks. Let Vaj payee be wary of this tiger.
Sir . May I applaud the Congress�s in sistence that the government publish a white paper on the recent WTO negotia tions? Greater transparency is always welcome. I only hope the Congress is not making gesture politics to dampen what was otherwise a successful round of talks for India.
Festive thoughtsSir . In response to your article, .Mar ket forces sneak into Puja pandals. (Oct 26), I would suggest that introducing tick ets and guestcards for the pandals for next year�s pujas will lead to utter chaos, commotion and pandemonium. This has been suggested by such luminaries as the minister in charge of the fire service and the police commissioner. I certainly don.t expect to see these gentlemen queuing for tickets. They probably won.t be idle though . they.ll have to cope with the stampedes.
Sir . I would be delighted at the impo sition of fares for pandals only if the spir it of holiday generosity is remembered. We must not let the money disappear into the deep pockets of the puja committees, especially of the larger pandals,which are already receiving large amounts of corporate sponsorship.Why not give the money to relief funds, or announce a .special cause. for that year�s puja? This year the plight of Afghan refugees or the displaced families from Bangladesh would have been particularly appropri ate. If the pandals were to shrink in size a little because of money given for a good reason our hearts would only grow the more.Maybe this scheme could extended to all our festivals.
Sir . Seeing the expression of happi ness on Afghan faces after Diwali (photo graph on page 4, Nov 15) made me feel that the spirit of the celebration in India had briefly skipped a few time zones and countries. It reminded me of the 1977 elections when India reacted against the oppression of the Emergency and threw out the Congress regime. That was also a time when the holiday spirit prevailed. Now let us give to the people of Afghanistan the gift of democracy and a degree of secularism, to keep their own sense of celebration alive.
Sir . We have holidays to satisfy Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Jain, Sikh, Christian and Parsi sentiments. Un doubtedly, this is the biggest achievement since our Independence. Even the most developed nations cannot boast of such an achievement. The United States of America has many races and religions, but it has only four or five holidays every year. It does not have even a single Christ ian holiday. Offices do not close for Easter or Good Friday.
The only holidays are for Indepen dence Day, Thanksgiving, Labour Day, Memorial Day and New Year.We certain ly have a leisurely way to secularism and socialism!

Arkansas quarterback Matt Jones has his work cut out for him learning a new position at the highest level. He will be looked at for the first time as a WR/TE. The learning curve will be long, but nobody has enough time to have all the answers. This week's Senior Bowl practices will be the first of many evaluations that will go a long way toward determining how high he will be drafted.
Sometimes scouts and other personnel people throw around ideas of players changing positions without much thought. Most times these experiments are a reach, at best. The expansion of NFL practice squads this year from five to eight makes it somewhat easier to keep an inexperienced player around. But taking a guy in the first day of the draft means you'll need him to contribute immediately, and there will be no time for the practice squad. The NFL is not really a training ground for learning a new trade.
Learning the characteristics of the new position won't be Matt's problem. Acquiring the instincts will be the toughest thing.

The pine nuts are ripe
We're getting sunshine some days and rain other days. The plants are doing better with some sun.
My elephant ears were so beaten up in the last rainstorm they fell over. I'm thinking they want a new home anyhow. I staked them up until I decide where to put them. The mother-in-laws tongues are doing very well, I've new leaves pushing through the ground on all of them. They should fill in that shady, dry side bed nicely. There's not a lot that will grow happily in the shade in a dry location. I put the African spear plant out there as well. I think it wants more sun than it will get there but I thought I'd experiment anyhow.
The rosemary is toast. I cut it back to the ground and I'll see if it will grow back from the roots. It seems unlikely but there's no harm in trying. The lemon grass and basil are doing well. The rest of the herbs look shabby as do the tomatoes and peppers.
The Dutchman's pipe and banana plant are growing in leaps and bounds. Still no bananas but I'm told it'll take a couple of years.
Everything else seems happy, no bugs, and not many weeds this week either.
That woodpecker that was drinking from the hummingbird feeder is still at it. I guess she is not going to out grow it, though she is growing wider. She spends 15 to 20 minutes at a time, several times a day slurping down that sugar water. The hummingbirds try to chase her off by she's not impressed with them.
And lastly the pine nuts are ripe. I know this because I can't walk in the yard with out pine nut scales falling on my head. The squirrels are gathering the pine cones, pulling off the scales to get to the nuts and dropping the scales every where. In some parts of the yard they will be a couple of inches deep before the season is over. And don't forget the shoes! Those pine cone scales are pointy like thorns.

The Power of a Fruit Basket
It's hard not to know that Christmas is right around the corner on Black Friday. By now you have heard countless commercials on television, read the ads and maybe stood in line in the wee hours of the night to get the best deals the stores have to offer. When I was a kid we didn't have the mega Toys"R"Us catalog to notify us that the season was upon us; we only had the fall JC Penney catalog.
So how did I know Christmas was near when I was a child?
Fruit baskets.
My grandfather owned a grocery store and the holiday season was kicked off when people ordered fruit baskets to give as gifts. In his small grocery store they made hundreds of fruit baskets. Fresh fruit and nuts were creatively stacked, put in paper-wrapped boxes then wrapped in red or green cellophane with a bow. Fruit baskets originated from the concept that hunters and gatherers went out, gathered fruit and brought it back to their village to share with everyone. The cellophane packaging was added around the 1950s.
I remember our family receiving fruit baskets when I was a kid. I always claimed the grapefruit if there was one. What fun it was to receive a surprise fruit basket. Who doesn't like opening the door to a fresh fruity basket of goodness in the dead of winter? More than the benefit of a healthy snack was the concept that someone made a choice to select you to do something nice for in the spirit of the Christmas season.
We are called in Philippians 2:3-4 to "Do nothing out of selfish ambition or vain conceit. Rather, in humility value others above yourselves, not looking to your own interests but each of you to the interests of others."
It is easy to get locked on to our own interests during the holidays when we really want that new iPhone 7 and allow the serving of others to be an afterthought.
I challenge you to give your first fruits to God by making your "serving and giving to the others who need it list" before your personal Christmas lists this year.
Be bold, be generous and have fun.
There are so many ways to help others.
Maybe you will ring bells for the Salvation Army, deliver Christmas food boxes for a local pantry or buy gifts for an adopted family.
My recommendation is to pray first about where your blessings should go then write down your budget and giving goals.
What if every year you try exceed what you gave last year, even if just by a little? Whatever you do, put a plan in action and set a date to accomplish it.
Nothing is worse than having a case of the "I should haves" this holiday season, harboring guilt over not getting it done. There is no room for guilt during the holidays or ever because:
Romans 8:1 says "There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus."
When you believe that Jesus is your Savior and repent of your sins, all of the guilt is taken away. No gift is better (even than a fruit basket delivered at your door during the holidays) than the gift of the Holy Spirit, but guess what? When you are filled with the Holy Spirit, the Spirit comes bearing a BONUS FRUIT BASKET, the nine fruits of the spirit that we are called to live out.
When you are filled with the Holy Spirit it comes with a BONUS FRUIT BASKET @darcycottone Click To Tweet
The Apostle Paul tells us in Galatians 5:22-23:
"But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control."
Fruits that are designed to be taken back to your village and shared. Yes, you should ring the bells or adopt a family, but if your family doesn't have the resources to give physical items, you still have plenty to offer others this holiday season. What if all of us shared our spiritual fruit basket abundantly, practicing patience in the crowded lines at stores, kindness in the airport by giving someone our seat, self-control with our coworkers or gentleness at our Christmas gatherings this year?
I can't think of any better gift for the world's immune system this giving season than a shot of God's own natural vitamin C.
Please share your favorite way to serve others during the holidays in the comment section.

Sizing perfect fit for Down Royal Summer Festival
Sizing Solution can solve the feature - the Tote Galway Plate Trial - on the opening night of the eagerly anticipated Down Royal Summer Festival.
The Festival's showpiece race is tomorrow's Magners Ulster Derby - worth £100,000, making it Ulster's richest Flat race - which will be broadcast live on BBC NI, along with two other contests.
Trainer Jim Dreaper's runners have been in excellent form of late and he has engaged novice Sizing Solution, which won at the course in October last year.
Mr Fiftyone and Mister Hotelier warrant consideration on recent form however in a very competitive renewal Sizing Solution just gets preference over Rathlin, with Bryan Cooper aboard.
Marito, trained at Crossgar by Colin McBratney, tops the weights after finishing runner-up at the track last month to Make A Track and the local handler, having claimed the Galway Plate in 2009 with Ballyholland, will be hoping his charge can complete a Ballybrit double.
While the local runner holds major claims, trainer Mouse Morris is doubly represented by Band Of Blood and Rathlin - the latter also having finished second to Make A Track by the same margin at Punchestown this month.
Realt Mor and Protaras are another duo of locally-owned contenders with the former from Gordon Elliott's all-conquering stable.
Trainer Henry De Bromhead is also doubly represented with Elegant Statesman and Never Complain.
The Megan McManus Memorial Hurdle honours a loyal supporter of the Lisburn course and the local training ranks.
The conditions provide an opportunity for the Elliott-trained Bayan to warm up for another assault on the Galway Hurdle next month having finished runner-up last year.
Rising star Jack Kennedy takes the mount and claims a valuable 7lb, while the Willie Mullins-trained Devils Bride can supply the main danger.
The opening mares hurdle is an open affair but Queen Alphabet is taken to score for trainer Peter Fahy at the expense of The Nutcracker and Collen Beag.
Three Stars and Scorpion Star appear the top pair in the maiden hurdle with the former, trained by Henry De Bromhead, getting the vote.
Ram Them All, May Dullea, Colm's Dream and Gold Class are the principal quartet on form in the handicap hurdle with young Kennedy an eye-catching booking for the latter after finishing second to Colm's Dream at Clonmel last week.
Bellgorve, Empresario and Mister Red are a trio of possible winners in the beginners chase. Swantykay, runner-up on his two most recent starts, could continue the run of success of Meath trainer Elliott at Ulster tracks.
The concluding bumper provides an opportunity for Prickly, trained by Edward O'Grady and ridden by Downpatrick jockey Declan Lavery, to follow up victory at Limerick.
DOWN ROYAL TOP TIPS: 5.50 Queen Alphabet 6.20 Three Stars 6.55 Bayan 7.25 Colm's Dream 7.55 Swantykay 8.30 Sizing Solution 9.00 Prickly

Insert Quarter is our showcase for some of the best and most interesting writing about video games on the Internet.
Konami would prefer it if gamers everywhere just forgot about PT and the game it was promoting, Silent Hills. The publisher removed PT from the PlayStation Store in late April and then officially canceled Silent Hills a day later. Now, Konami has completely removed PT from Sony's servers, preventing players from re-downloading the demo if they delete it from their PS4. Needless to say, fans are unhappy with Konami's treatment of the franchise and the three men who were working to bring it back (Hideo Kojima, film director Guillermo Del Toro, and actor Norman Reedus).
Others, like Offworld's Leigh Alexander, are lamenting the death of the Silent Hill franchise as we know it. Specifically the weird and off-kilter little town that was created by weird and off-kilter people. The Silent Hill series may continue, but it won't be the same:
We just don't have that anymore, now that video games make so much sense, so much business sense. They are so eloquently risk-averse, these days. For fear of needlessly glorifying a prior era, though, a couple of years ago I played through Silent Hill 2 again, to see how it 'held up.' I expected its quirks and flaws to loom large with time. I expected to be a little embarrassed at how much it had transported and impacted a younger me.
But somehow it was better and more beautiful.
And in a rare Insert Quarter two-fer, Polygon's Nick Robinson looks into the efforts fans are going to to keep PT alive, including selling the game on eBay (actually, selling a PS4 console with the game installed on it). Robinson also muses on how Konami's attempt to kill it has only made PT a bigger part of the conversation among gamers:
Of course, P.T. isn't actually going anywhere; the game was downloaded over one million times, which means it's backed up across over one million hard drives and SSDs in over one million PlayStation 4s all over the world. In reality, the game is not going to truly disappear — at least not until those hard drives start failing. But even then, Konami's attempts to restrict access to P.T. are foolish, because copies will be made and encryption barriers will be broken. The coolest part, though, isn't just that Konami failed — it's how spectacularly the company's plan has backfired.
Both articles are available for your perusal at Offworld and Polygon.

Happy Easter everyone! Yes it may be a bit late, but I hope you all had a wonderful Easter weekend. We had a really fun weekend filled with family, and Evie got to do her first egg hunt.
Easter brings about many childhood memories for me, and I hope that Easter will be filled with memories for Evie too as she grows up. My memories include wearing dresses that matched my sisters, and squashing into the car to drive out to our churches Easter conference. I remember going to the play room where there was lots of play dough and felt board and felt board characters used to help tell all us kids about the Easter story. I remember sitting in on the bible studies and ministry meetings and Mom giving us girls a baggy with Lifesaver candies in it to keep us quiet and distracted. I also have fond memories of making kites to bring to our families Easter picnic at Stanley Park. I even won that contest to make a kite that flew, the trophy is still at my parent's house to this day.
On Saturday night Jason and I stayed up doing some final preparations for having people over to our home on Easter Sunday. He worked on preparing the turkey, though I was the one who basket weaved the bacon to go on top, and I put the finishing touches on the bunny sugar cookies I had baked earlier in the week. We both did a frenzied cleaning of the house.
We even decided to be kids at heart again, and we dyed some eggs. Instead of the store bought dyes we tried using natural vegetable dyes. We used red onion for one batch and that gave us a yellow brown colour, and we used red cabbage which gave this incredible blue. Next year we plan to add beets to the mix. Using natural dyes takes a bit longer to get the colour, but it is so worth it. Evie is just going to grow up knowing that the eggs have to sit in the dye over night and then in the morning they will be ready.
Evie's Easter basket was so much fun to put together, and there was no chocolate in it. She did get a container of her favourite snacks to enjoy. We first got the four mini Winnie the Pooh characters from Hallmark. Then we included sidewalk chalk, Guess How Much I Love You movie, a book called Little White Rabbit, a bunny mask that she got from a little friend's birthday party but we saved to include in this, and two Boo Boo Bags.
This was her first time searching for Easter eggs, last year she was too young. You would have thought she has done this many times before, as she caught on very quickly to go and collect her Easter eggs that we had tossed around the front yard. The plastic eggs are probably going to become bath toys for a little bit now before we pack them away.
It was so much fun having our home crammed full with some of our family and friends. Both my parent's and Jason's were over, and we had friends of ours join us too. It was a full house. We scrambled to figure out seating, and even had my family bring a folding table. Dinner was done potluck style with everyone bringing something to contribute. At one point we had 5 cooks in the kitchen putting last minute touches on everything. It must have tasted good because it was very quiet while everyone enjoyed their meal. Evie even enjoyed her first sugar cookie. I thought we had placed them out of her reach when we needed more space on the island to serve dinner. Wrong. She figured out that she could reach if she opened the door on her play fridge. Thankfully she had already had her dinner, and being the little lady she is she only ate one little ear off of it before giving the rest to Mommy.
Easter Monday was very laid back. I went out early in the morning to do some shopping, and get a few clearance Easter treats for Jason and I. Evie must have been all tuckered out from having fun the day before, as she slept in well past 8:30 am! We went out for a little walk around Tynehead Park, we all needed the fresh air. Evie even walked on her own for a good chunk. Soon it was her nap time though so we rushed home, and I actually suggested to Jason to see if his brother wanted to go golfing. They managed to fit in a quick round of 9 holes while I stayed home with Evie during her nap. We then headed to my parents for the afternoon. Where we were spoiled with another very yummy dinner.
Easter weekend is always going to be filled with family, memories, and lots of meaning for us.

Vietnam Day 1

Namo Amitabha, hi Rachel, do you consider your cousin's wedding better than your health? Poor little girl Rachel! Da Nang city is about in the middle of Vietnam. The weather doesn't look good on that day. Most of everything in Vietnam are cheap especially Vietnamese food. So enjoy having fun and eat plenty of good foods in Vietnam :):) Some of famous Vietnamese foods you may try are Vietnamese rice noodle, Vietnamese egg rolls (nom nom nom, the best and famous of Vietnamese foods), Vietnamese fried rice, others are just meaty foods, not vegan foods and I don't know how to say their names in English. Don't go in the crowds much or you can easily lose your purse! You should pay everything up front in cash possible to avoid over charges by bad illiterate people after they have complete their services! Ask your cousins who live in Vietnam to aware more of bad things and to enjoy more good things :) Wish you have a safe and good trip. Sincerely, your Dharma friend Tam Tinh.ReplyDelete

Sustainability is a practice operating across a variety of scales and skills. We will explore the ways that decision makers use systems analysis and design thinking to confront the career-defining challenges facing the next generation of leaders. Networks of practice from across North America and around the globe will provide case material and guest lectures.
About the course
Sustainability is defining a generation of students and young professionals and their influence is transforming things like cities, companies, and laws around the world. Sustainability is often explained as meeting "the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." In practice, this means understanding connections, including connections across time. These connections create systems that are greater than the simple sums of their parts, with consequences that are often unexpected by people paying attention to only one part of a system. This course provides an introduction to the ideas and practices that people are using to understand and change these connections in pursuing more sustainable processes, communities, environments, and organizations.
Course Syllabus
Week 1: Connections
Week 2: Accounting
Week 3: Resilience
Week 4: Emergence
Week 5: Jurisdiction
Week 6: Performance
Week 7: Disruption
Week 8: Connections

What. Just. Happened?
A netizen by the name of Natt Haya shared two videos that will definitely make you ask if what you just saw was real or just downright laugh. This video tells the story of two people who had a fun night; a very fun night.
In the first video, the two just couldn't get enough of each other. From getting too intimate and rubbing stuff down below to just humping, the two of them were planning things for a wild night. All these were caught on CCTV, they knew and the girl, even waved at the camera.
Take note: the girl's hair was wild and she was definitely sexy.
Here's the first video:
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
Looks like the usual stuff, but just like any good joke, that's the setup!
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); After that, the girl goes into the elevator and the CCTV catches her with her hair in a bun and she's walking wobbly while holding her stomach as if something broke inside.
What the heck did they make up in that room? Did they use some toys or something? Did it involve extreme gymnastics? Whatever the case, it was definitely funny.
Here's the second video:
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});
One thing's for sure though, it looks like they were using some heavy machinery in their hotel room.
As of now, the CCTV post has gone so viral that it has 99,368 shares and 23,929 comments!
Most netizens keep hitting the laugh, react to this video while there are some who said that her cervix might be broken. Well, from the looks of it, she might need a hip replacement surgery.
Could be anything though, you never know. They might be staying in a hotel with a mechanical bull or something. Maybe they had some bad room service?
What do you think happened? Tell us in the comments below and don't forget to share this story!

How Does an LLC Owner Get Paid?

The limited liability company (LLC) is a peculiar form of business type, and a recent addition to the types of businesses. The LLC owners are called members.

There are two types of LLC's - a single owner LLC (called a "single-member LLC") and a multiple-owner (multiple-member) LLC.

How does LLC membership work?

As a member of an LLC, either a single member or one of multiple members in the business, you are a business owner, not an employee of your company. You don't receive a paycheck. Instead, each member has a capital account, which is the member's share of the ownership of the LLC (shown as owner's equity on the business balance sheet).

In most cases, when you become a member, either when the LLC is formed or later, you will need to contribute money to this account. When you need money, you draw out (take a distribution from) your capital account.

How do I take money from my capital account?

When you take money out of your LLC, you are taking money out of your ownership account for the business. This ownership (or equity) is shown in your capital account. The capital account is shown on your business balance sheet.

If you need money for personal living expenses, you take a from your capital account. Sometimes this is called a "distribution" or a "draw." The draw is usually in the form of a check, written to you personally on a business check.

But this check is NOT a paycheck. No federal or state income taxes are withheld from your draw, nor is there any FICA tax (Social Security/Medicare) withheld from your draw. Make sure the draw is paid to you by the business, using the business checking account, and that the draw is deposited into your personal checking account.

Note: Because no money is withheld automatically from your draw, you may need to pay quarterly estimated taxes. Talk to your tax professional.

If you don't have any money in your capital account, you can't draw any money out for personal expenses. For example, if you start a new business and you have little income and lots of money that must be paid out - for rent, equipment, interest on your business loan - there is nothing left to pay you for personal expenses.

Does the money I take out get taxed?

You (personally and business) don't get taxed on the money you draw out for personal use. Your business tax amount is determined by your portion of the net income or loss from your business for the year.

Just to be clear, if you take out more than the net income, it doesn't increase your income tax liability. If you take out less than the net income, it doesn't decrease your income tax liability.

Single-member LLC Distributions: An Example

Monthly profits average $3,000, and annual net income of the LLC is $36,000.

Single member/owner takes a draw each month, and all draws total $30,000 for the year.

Net income of $36,000 is calculated on Schedule C.

Schedule C net income of $36,000 is included in owner's personal tax return.

Multiple-member LLC Distributions: An Example

The LLC member takes a draw of $2000 a month, or $24,000 a year.

The LLC net income for the year is $50,000. There are two members, each with half of the ownership. So each member's share of the net income (profit) is $25,000.

The LLC gives the member a Schedule K-1 showing his or her share of net profit at $25,000. The LLC member is taxed on the net profit of $25,000. The draw amount ($24,000 in this year) is not taxed since it's included in the net profit. Note that the member's share of net profit is taxable even if not taken out of the business.

The fact that an LLC member pays income taxes on the profit of the business, even if that profit is not paid out to the individual, is considered a drawback of the LLC business form.

What about Social Security/Medicare Taxes?

Everyone who works in the U.S. pays Social Security/Medicare taxes on their income. You must pay self-employment taxes, which are Social Security/Medicare taxes on the net income (profit) from your LLC business. In the examples above, the single-member LLC owner would pay self-employment tax on $36,000. The multiple-member LLC owner would pay self-employment tax on $25,000 share of income.

Knightsbridge is a road in the west of central London, which runs along the south side of Hyde Park. Named after a bridge which once crossed the area of water now known as the Serpentine in Hyde Park, it also gives its name to the residential area between Hyde Park and Chelsea, one of the world's most expensive places to live. Once a known haunt for highwaymen who used to hold up coaches on their way out of London, in the nineteenth century Knightsbridge was transformed into the exclusive area it is today. A large number of upmarket shops, restaurants, bars and private banks are located here, not least the department stores Harrods and Harvey Nichols. The world's most expensive apartment, at One Hyde Park, Knightsbridge, sold for £100 million in 2007.

I found Brendan very good to deal with.
He was very helpful in solving the problems I was having in remotely viewing television channels.
He updated my remote expander and left the new one with me on trial and then contacted me again 2 days later to make sure that the new one was going alright and that I was happy to make the purchase.
I also received an e-mail from him outlining the guarantees that applied to the purchase and that I could contact him again if I had any further problems.
He gave exceptional service, was extremely obliging and so nice to deal with and I would have no hesitation in recommending his service.
