Tax mistakes can happen to anyone -- just ask President Obama. At last count, at least four nominees to Obama's administration were found to owe back taxes. Tom Daschle, nominated to head the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, owed more than $100,000 in taxes related to unreported income and untaxed limousine service. News of the unpaid taxes led Daschle to withdraw himself from consideration for the position. Tim Geithner, Obama's secretary of the Treasury, faced fierce criticism for his failure to pay $34,000 in taxes related to his work for the International Monetary Fund, among other things. Tax issues also hindered or derailed the nominations of Obama's picks for U.S. trade representative (Ron Kirk) and chief performance officer (Nancy Killefer).
You might (or might not) be inclined to cut the president's nominees some slack. After all, the official U.S. Tax Code now numbers more than 70,000 pages long and grows thicker every year. That's the equivalent of more than 33 Oxford American dictionaries [source: Reuters]. Clearly, it's difficult to keep up with all of these constantly changing rules and regulations.
You don't need to be a tax accountant, however, to avoid some of the most common mistakes people make when filing their returns. While most of these mistakes won't land you in a jail cell next to Bernie Madoff, they might cause you a few headaches as you deal with delays in your refund check or pay penalties and interest. So without further ado, and in no particular order, let's get on to some tax doozies that you won't commit after reading our list.
Not Filing on Time
April 15. The date stirs feelings of dread and anxiety in working Americans nationwide, and with good reason. Between gathering your W-2s, finding all of your receipts and financial records, and filling out your tax forms, doing your taxes can be an ordeal. No wonder people tend to wait until the last possible moment to file their taxes. In fact, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) reports that more than 20 percent of Americans wait until the last week to file their taxes [source: Reuters]. These people typically have more complicated returns as well, adding to their stress as the tax deadline draws near.
While taxpayers might naturally be tempted to wait a few weeks after the deadline before filing, that decision could cost them. The IRS charges interest (compounded daily) at an annual rate equivalent to the federal short-term rate plus 3 percent on any unpaid taxes, starting from when payment is due until the payment is received. In addition to charging interest, the IRS also charges a penalty for filing late (5 percent of the amount owed for each month or partial month the payment is late, up to a total of 25 percent). Depending on the amount someone owes and how long he or she waits to pay, interest and penalties can mount up in a hurry.
If you need any more motivation to get started on your taxes early, the IRS notes that people who wait until the last minute to file typically make more mistakes on their returns. What kinds of mistakes? Read on to find out.
Missing or Incorrect Information
You've gathered all your records, filled out your paperwork and sent everything in on time. What's holding up your refund check? Chances are your return wasn't fully filled out. Maybe your Social Security number was incomplete or illegible. Perhaps you incorrectly filled out your routing information, so instead of having your refund check deposited directly into your bank account, the check was sent by mail. Although these mistakes are easily fixable, they happen a lot, and they can result in substantial delays in processing your return. And make sure to sign before you file. Mark Green, IRS spokesman for Georgia, says, "One of the main errors that we notice, and this is generally with people that wait toward the end to file, is that they forget to sign their returns."
These errors can be particularly costly if you have a tax liability, since the time required to fix the mistake can effectively push the filing date past April 15 (see mistake No. 10). A little diligence can ensure these types of mistakes don't happen to you. If you're filing by mail, make sure that you've filled in correctly and legibly all required information. If you're filing jointly, both individuals must sign the return. Better yet, file electronically, or e-file. According to Green, processing e-file returns costs the IRS 35 cents, compared to $2.87 to process a paper return. You'll be helping yourself, too. E-filing can result in quicker turnaround time for refunds. In addition, your tax software can catch a number of mistakes for you, including the next type on our list.
Math Errors
Careless mistakes. The phrase conjures up memories of algebra class and tests covered in red X's. For some of us, math class might have been the last time we dusted off the calculator and crunched some numbers. No wonder, then, that math errors are common on tax returns. Filing electronically can help, since your tax software will do most of the math for you. Of course, if you accidentally enter the wrong numbers in the first place, your tax software won't be able to help you out.
The IRS does check the returns, and sometimes those math errors work out in your favor, resulting in bigger returns than you were expecting. Other times, you may end up owing the IRS money and incur interest payments as well. Even the IRS makes mistakes occasionally, so if you receive a letter from the agency regarding math errors on your return, make sure to check its work, too.
Avoiding the next mistake on our list requires more effort, but that effort can be very rewarding. Read on to find out why.
Falling Behind on the Latest Tax News
We've already established that keeping up with the latest changes to the tax code can be quite a challenge, but you can miss out on some major opportunities if you fall too far out of the loop. This year, for instance, first-time U.S. homeowners who purchased their homes in 2007 and 2008 are eligible for substantial tax credits. The IRS also posts the latest news for individuals affected by natural disasters, as well as information about the latest tax scams or even Super Saturday, when the agency teams up with community partners to prepare qualified individual tax returns for free.
The easiest way to get this information is through the IRS Web site, irs.gov (the "Latest News" section is particularly helpful). Looking through some of the agency's resources can be time very well spent. You can also talk to tax professionals about your situation. If they're knowledgeable and current on the latest changes, and they should be if you're paying them, they can tell you of any credits or rebates that might apply to you. After you've read up on the latest changes and filed your tax returns, make sure to avoid the next mistake on our list.
Not Keeping a Copy of Your Return
You probably have a file cabinet (or two or three) full of papers you never look at. When it comes time to get rid of some of them, make sure your prior tax returns don't make it into the "shred" pile. What if you made a mistake on a previous return? In that case, you can file an amended U.S. income tax return (Form 1040-X) and possibly receive a larger refund for the amended year. While you'll need to file an amendment within three years of the initial filing date, Green recommends letting your initial return process before filing an amended one, since having both returns open at the same time can cause massive headaches for both you and the IRS.
The IRS has several guidelines to help you know how long to keep your returns. For instance, if you fail to report income greater than 25 percent of the income reported on your return, the agency has six years before the statute of limitations runs out, so you should hold onto the return in question for six years.
Most people don't need to worry about tax fraud investigations and unreported income. Still, definitely get a copy of your return, particularly if you enlist the help of a tax professional. Your previous tax returns will help you to see trends in your income taxes and to prepare your tax returns in the future, making them well worth a little space in your filing cabinet.
The next mistake goes well beyond paperwork and filing folders. Read on to see what we mean.
Faking Your Death (and Other Dirty Tricks)
On Jan. 11, 2009, financier Marcus Schrenker's private plane crashed in the Florida Panhandle. Schrenker, strangely enough, was nowhere to be found. After tracking down Schrenker over the next few days, investigators now believe he may have been faking his own death in an attempt to run from financial and legal problems.
Granted, faking your own death may not strictly fall under a list of "common" tax mistakes, but Schrenker wouldn't be the first person to give it a try. In 2007, British nightclub bouncer Mark Vaughan was convicted of two counts of tax evasion related to faking his death. Vaughan's scheme was a bit less dramatic than Marcus Schrenker's plan. Vaughan simply called the tax office and informed them that he'd died of a stroke, and he actually managed to go two years before he was finally caught. Faking your own death is hardly the only way to commit tax fraud. Hiding money offshore and abusing charity donations also fall into the category of fraud and can land you in serious trouble.
More recently, the IRS has reported an alarming increase in phishing, where scam artists send e-mails claiming to represent the IRS in an attempt to gain sensitive financial information from unwitting taxpayers. According to Green, however, the IRS never sends unsolicited e-mails or asks for detailed personal and financial information. He also encourages taxpayers to be cautious and aware, and to forward suspicious e-mails to firstname.lastname@example.com.
Missing a Tax Break
Up until now, most of the mistakes on our list were the sort that result in penalties and hassles. Missing tax credits and deductions can sting in a different way, since you can end up paying way too much when you file. You wouldn't be alone. In fact, Americans overpay taxes by almost a billion dollars every year [source: Johnson].
To make sure you don't contribute to that figure, pay close attention to any tax credits or deductions that apply to you. Tax credits are particularly valuable and work by directly reducing the amount of taxes you owe. For instance, people with children can often receive a $1,000 credit, assuming their income doesn't disqualify them. Deductions work by reducing the amount of taxable income the IRS considers when determining what an individual owes. Charitable donations, mortgage interest, medical expenses -- there are a number of costs that qualify as itemized deductions. If those itemized deductions add up to be greater than the standard deduction (determined by your filing status), then they can lower your taxable income. Less taxable income translates into less money going to Uncle Sam and more money in your pocket.
If you're interested in itemizing your deductions, you might want to pay particular attention to avoiding the next mistake on our list.
Filing the Wrong Tax Forms
There are three different forms people can use when filing an individual tax return; 1040, 1040A and 1040EZ. Form 1040 takes the longest to fill out, but it also gives you the flexibility to do things like itemize deductions or reflect self-employment income. At the other end of the spectrum, the 1040EZ is fairly easy to complete (as you might have guessed from the name), but the form is only appropriate if you have a simple tax situation (no student loan interest or IRA contributions to write off, for instance). The IRS encourages all filers to use the simplest form that they can to speed up processing refund checks. Make sure, though, that you don't end up overpaying on your taxes for the sake of an easy filing process or so that you can get your refund check. As we learned from our discussion on tax credits and deductions, credits and deductions can result in huge savings to the taxpayer at the end of the day. At the very least, however, you'll want to maximize your standard deduction by avoiding the next mistake on our list in the process.
Filing Under the Wrong Status
Choosing your status has a big impact on the types of standard deductions you'll receive on your tax return. While the process is often straightforward, a couple of areas can cause some confusion. First, make sure to check only one status. If you're married, for instance, make sure to choose between filing separately and filing jointly. For many people, their status changes during the year. If you get married or divorced over the course of the year, make sure to reference your status as of Dec. 31 of that year.
Checking head of household can be particularly tricky. While filing as the head will get you a larger standard deduction than filing as single, you should make certain that you qualify for that status. Again, the IRS has multiple resources available to answer any questions you might have about filing status, so take advantage of them.
Although choosing the right status on your returns is important, avoiding our next mistake is even more so.
Not Filing at All
Even if you don't have the funds to pay your tax liability at the moment, the IRS encourages everyone to file something.
One option is to file an installment agreement request (Form 9465). This form allows you to outline a payment schedule for your taxes in the event you don't have the money to pay all at once. The IRS will accept your installment plan if you meet a certain set of requirements. For instance, you'll can't already be on an installment plan with the IRS. While you will still be charged interest and penalties once you've worked out a repayment schedule, those rates are much better than the rates for not filing at all.
Another option is to file for an application for automatic extension of time to file U.S. individual income tax return (Form 4868). Granted, the form's name is a mouthful, but the six-month extension for filing your returns that you'll receive in return will help you forgive the clunky title. While a 4868 doesn't grant you an extension on payments, the penalties for late payment are much less severe.
No matter what you do, don't let April 15 pass you by without filing your returns. Even if you're owed a refund, you'll cause yourself problems in the future by not filing (and you can lose your refund in the process).

"Es klang vermutlich im ursprünglichen Deutsch besser," said Professor Plum, poking his head and all six chins into the mail room.
Apparently hiding the mail amidst the student course evaluations was not as successful as we'd hoped. (More)
Ah Sunday, when the resident faculty at Blogistan Polytechnic Institute make their way to the wine cellar library to drink think on our motto of Magis vinum, magis verum ("More wine, more truth"), and Professor Plum pauses to let us know he's found our mail again. Had your lowly mail room clerk known the faculty actually read course evaluations when we were in college, we might not have written some of those things.
Fortunately Plum's entry did not disrupt progress in the staff poker game, because the Professor of Astrology Janitor was on a hot streak and up nearly two dollars. Then all of those chirping chips went to his head and he decided to play a Seven-Deuce offsuit as if it were a pair of Aces. When an Ace fell on the flop he carefully concealed his glee as Chef bet. He called, then added a big raise when she bet again at the turn. It looked exactly as if he had been trapping her, and it might have worked had Chef not held … a pair of Aces.
Of course that triggered his plaintive mewling and Chef headed for the kitchen to prepare Bauernfrühstück, a German Farmer's Breakfast. This gave your lowly mail room clerk a chance to respond to the week's correspondence….
Dear Ms. Crissie,
Y'know what's wrong with you liberal Democrats? You don't value diversity! When was the last time a Democratic president nominated a white Christian male to the Supreme Court? It was Justice Byron White, nominated by JFK. Every nominee since has been a woman, a black, or a Jew. Mostly Jews: five of your last seven nominees. When will you liberals stand up for the kind of people who made America great?
Pat in VA
Dear Pat,
We disagree with Molly Ivins' comment on your speech at the 1992 GOP convention, "It probably sounded better in the original German," a quip many have cited in response to your most recent verbal diarrhea. Ms. Ivins' wit offered an excuse that you should not be allowed. You don't live in the Germany of the 1920s-1940s, where racism was accepted as a fact supposedly proved by the science of the day. Were you in Germany today, your hateful words would be reviled and your career as a public figure would quickly end. We suggest cognitive Kaopectate or, failing that, a long-overdue retirement into anonymity.
Dear Ms. Crissie,
Now don't pick on my brother. The fact is President Obama is dumbing down the Supreme Court with his nominees. Look at his nominees. They don't look like judges to me. My brother and I just want qualified people, that's all.
Bay in VA
Dear Bay,
We must define qualified very differently, as you famously said that half-term Governor Airspace was "extraordinarily qualified" to be President of the United States. We suggest you could be the poster woman for cultural hegemony, and encourage you to join your brother in that cognitive Kaopectate, or in long-overdue retirement.
Dear Ms. Crissie,
You liberals just don't get it, do you. Conservatives stand up for common sense like racial profiling. Law enforcement should consider a person's race as an indicator of threats like international terrorism. It's downright stupid not to suspect young Middle Eastern males, but you liberals are all about political correctness. Or take the ENDA bill. Who needs it? Nobody could discriminate against homosexuals if they didn't wear their sexuality on their sleeves. If you don't project it, if you don't advertise it, nobody knows about it and they can't discriminate against you. Who needs a law for that?
Steve in IA
Dear Steve,
We wonder if you're aware that neither of the suspects in the two most recent terrorist attempts – so-called "underpants bomber" Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab and Times Square bomber Faisal Shazad – was "Middle Eastern." Abdulmutallab is from Nigeria, which for your benefit we shall note is in Africa. Shazad was born in Pakistan, which for your benefit we shall note is southern Asia. Perhaps "they" all look the same to you in which case we are grateful you're not in law enforcement, or perhaps you used "Middle Eastern" as code for "Muslim" in which case you need to consult the First Amendment. The issue is not "political correctness" but "probable cause" and, your xenophobia notwithstanding, race and religion are not "probable cause."
As for your thoughts on ENDA, they might be less absurd were this not in the first paragraph of your biography at your official website: "He attended Denison Community High School, where he met Marilyn Kelly, whom he married in 1972." Routine fluff, unless your name were Stephanie King and you met and married Marilyn Kelly, or as Steve King you met and married Mark Kelly, at which point "routine fluff" becomes "wearing their sexuality on their sleeves." Likewise for employees who have photos of spouses on their desks, or invite them to office family parties. Routine if the couple are straight, and "wearing their sexuality on their sleeves" if the couple are LGBT. In fact you're saying we LGBTs have a special duty to conceal our lives.
We would suggest you plug the hole from which your verbal diarrhea emerged, but you would probably say we're "wearing our sexuality on our sleeves."
Dear Ms. Crissie,
Uggh. Just, uggh. Please tell me that German Farmer's Breakfast is more appetizing than this week's letters.
Hungry and Hoping in Blogistan
Dear Hungry and Hoping,
We have good news. Bauernfrühstück, or German Farmer's Breakfast, is both very appetizing and easy to make. First peel, quarter, and boil 3 potatoes until a toothpick just slides in. Set them aside and roughly chop 1 cup of green onions, 1 cup of white onions, 2 cups of green bell peppers, 1 cup of ham, and ¼ cup of parsley. Brown the onions and peppers in olive oil over medium-high heat, then push them to the side of the pan and brown the potatoes, salting to taste. When the potatoes are browned, stir the ham into the potatoes and cover the pan for 1-2 minutes, until the ham is heated. Then stir the onions and peppers into the potatoes and ham, add the parsley, and stir in 4 beaten eggs. Cook until the eggs begin to firm up, and serve immediately. Bon appétit!
Steve in IA on racial profiling; on ENDA; bio at official website.
Happy Sunday!

Weld County commissioners on Monday jousted over who was listening to the public regarding a plan to reclassify Weld County Road 29, adding a pinch of flavor to what would typically be a bland second reading of a bureaucratic recommendation.
The conflict centers on a Weld County staff recommendation to reclassify Weld 29 from Nunn to Greeley as an arterial road, two steps above its current local road designation.
The north-south, 17-mile stretch features dirt and gravel but was identified as a possible arterial mainly because of its long, uninterrupted run.
Reclassification doesn't actually do anything to the road, but it does increase the county's right-of-way should any improvements be deemed necessary in the future. For example, a local road has 60 feet of right-of-way, while an arterial road has 140 feet. For Weld County Commissioner Barbara Kirkmeyer, classifying the road as arterial means less of a headache for future staff members or commissioners if and when the road is improved. Without right-of-way extensions, county staff would have to acquire it, piece-by-piece, from landowners all along the 17-mile stretch of Weld 29.
"Changing the classification does not change traffic patterns or volumes, it doesn't change the character of the driver or how they're driving," Kirkmeyer said. "It allows us to improve the safety in the future."
Several residents who live along Weld 29 spoke against the reclassification, saying the road should remain local or be classified as a collector at most. They cited Weld 31 and other north-south roads near Weld 29, among other concerns.
In response, Commissioner Sean Conway attempted to have the road classified as a collector – a happy medium between local and arterial road classifications. Conway's motion didn't get a single vote, but it likely pleased residents whom he referenced in several comments.
Conway talked about the changes being sprung on the public and said it would be good to take the time – two years – to involve the public.
"It would be nice if Commissioner Conway would stop implying we're not listening to the public," Kirkmeyer said, adding commissioners already made the Weld 29 stretch south of Colo. 392 a collector based on public input. "Our job is not just to listen to the public in this one session. Our job is (to ensure) a county-wide transportation system."
The county's capital infrastructure plan calls for $35 million for paving Weld 29 north of Colo. 14, and the potential for another $26 million in improvements to Weld 29 between Colo. 14 and Colo. 392.

I Am Naive In ...
I admit I am naive in this task because I thought this is just a a throw away solution and therefore no need to bother about rigorous testing. Obviously I was wrong. Anyway, since I am learning Python, I just wonder whether Python can catch this type of exception. Below showed code snippet how I did it Tcl. If I were to use the "id" after the foreach loop, the "id" is no longer "CCH" as it should be for the bad data set.
$In order to split into just two fileds based on the first colon, I need to use non-greedy quantifiers in the regular expression syntax, which match the same possibilities but prefer the smallest number rather than the largest number of matches.
tclsh% set gooddata {CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd}CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd % set badData {CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd, Tel:1234567}CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd, Tel:1234567 % foreach { id value } [split $goodData :] {}% puts "id=$id, value=$value"id=CCH, value=Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd % foreach { id value } [split $badData :] {}% puts "id=$id, value=$value"id=1234567, value= %
regexp {^(.*?):(.*)$} $badData x id value1 % puts "id=$id, value=$value"id=CCH, value=Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd, Tel:1234567 %
With Python, it throws exception if you are not getting 2 strings in the return list. DO you know that
split method for string can limit the amount of separator fields to be splitted. This gives you the flexibility to choose how you want to split the string.
pythonPython 2.5.1 (r251:54863, May 18 2007, 16:56:43) [GCC 3.4.4 (cygming special, gdc 0.12, using dmd 0.125)] on cygwin Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> goodData='CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd'>>> badData='CCH:Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd, Tel: 1234567'>>> [id,value]=goodData.split(':')>>> print 'id=%s, value=%s' % (id,value)id=CCH, value=Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd >>> [id,value]=badData.split(':')Traceback (most recent call last): File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module> ValueError: too many values to unpack >>> [id,value]=badData.split(':',1)>>> print 'id=%s, value=%s' % (id,value)id=CCH, value=Chan Chi Hung Pte Ltd, Tel: 1234567 >>>
Moral of the story is:
Do not trust your users totally.
Make sure you test your program with all kinds of data set to ensure it can handle various situation.
Program in defensive manner, even though it is a throw away solution.

Memory of the Poor
Reading of the Word of God
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
This is the Gospel of the poor,
liberation for the imprisoned,
sight for the blind,
freedom for the oppressed.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Acts 19,1-8
It happened that while Apollos was in Corinth, Paul made his way overland as far as Ephesus, where he found a number of disciples. When he asked, 'Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you became believers?' they answered, 'No, we were never even told there was such a thing as a Holy Spirit.' He asked, 'Then how were you baptised?' They replied, 'With John's baptism.' Paul said, 'John's baptism was a baptism of repentance; but he insisted that the people should believe in the one who was to come after him -- namely Jesus.' When they heard this, they were baptised in the name of the Lord Jesus, and the moment Paul had laid hands on them the Holy Spirit came down on them, and they began to speak with tongues and to prophesy. There were about twelve of these men in all. He began by going to the synagogue, where he spoke out fearlessly and argued persuasively about the kingdom of God. He did this for three months,
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
The Son of Man came to serve,
whoever wants to be great
should become servant of all.
Alleluia, alleluia, alleluia
Paul remains there for three entire years, making it the centre of his mission. In fact, he travels from Ephesus to found Christian communities in other cities, like Colossae, Laodicea, and Hierapolis. And he wrote several letters to his communities from Ephesus, including the one to the Corinthians. As soon as he arrives in the city, Paul finds several disciples of the Baptist. Paul immediately understands the opportunity he has been given to increase their faith. They had accepted the prophecy of the Baptist, the forerunner. The time had now come for them to encounter the Teacher for whom the Baptist had prepared the way. It is a little story of great teaching value: it reveals the attentiveness of Paul in seizing every occasion to proclaim the Gospel, in paying attention to questions of conversion, which are often hidden in people's hearts. Paul had understood their question, and joined them on their spiritual journey. He communicated the Gospel to them until the time of their Baptism. And, while the apostle laid his hands on them, the Holy Spirit descended into the hearts of those dozen believers and transformed them into disciples of Jesus. The Spirit immediately revealed its strength through those newly baptized disciples and Luke notes: "They spoke in tongues and prophesied." Paul teaches us to be attentive to the need for help, and for mercy, that is hidden in the hearts of many. Indeed even today there is much thirst for the Gospel in the world. Our task is not to let anything slip through the cracks and to proclaim the Word of God that satisfy our thirst for eternal life.

New Information Suggests Guccifer 2.0 Leak was a DNC Ruse Fabricated by "Warren Flood"
By: Shepard Ambellas, Intellihub |
Whoever created the files from Guccifer 2.0 did it using a version of Microsoft Office registered to "Warren Flood".
The Democratic National Committee (DNC) claims that it was the so-called Russian hacker Guccifer 2.0 and not the murdered DNC staffer Seth Rich who hacked into the DNC servers and gave Wikileaks the emails which later revealed how the DNC rigged the Primary against Senator Bernie Sanders to thrust Hillary Clinton into the forefront.
Now, new evidence has emerged which proves that either:
a. That Guccifer 2.0 is not the Russian hacker as the DNC claims
b. That Guccifer 2.0 was set up by the DNC to be a patsy and may be a legitimate hacker
According to a new video posted to the Mike Cerovich YouTube channel, narrated by Devon Stack: "There's evidence to suggest that Guccifer 2.0 isn't a Russian hacker as the DNC claims but rather an invention of someone using software registered to the DNC, a staffer named Warren Flood."
The videos narrator goes on to point out how Warren Flood is a "tech worker" who has previously worked for organizations such as Obama For America, the DNC, and even the White House. But even more shocking is the fact that whoever created the files from Guccifer 2.0 did it using a version of Microsoft Office registered to "Warren Flood."
The metadata embedded within the Wikileaks emails, when compared to the metadata released by 'Guccifer 2.0,' doesn't match up and is not the same (i.e. the files released by Guccifer 2.0 are not the same files released by Wikileaks). What the metadata actually shows is that the Wikileaks files clearly were taken from DNC Research Director Lauren Dillon's computer and not Warren Floods who used Microsoft Office to create the document.
So how does all of this tie in?
Keep in mind that, still, to this day, the FBI has never inspected the DNC's servers. This fact was admitted by Fmr. FBI Director James Comey in his recent hearing.
"In the case of the DNC and I believe the D-triple-C, but I'm sure the DNC, we did not have access to the devises themselves," Comey testified, proving that nobody has ever inspected the DNC servers.
A timeline of events according to the video, as follows:
- June 14, 2016: The DNC announced that it had been hacked, the Washington Post suggested "the Russians" did it
- June 15, 2016: Crowdstrike, the company paid by the DNC to maintain its servers, also blamed the attack on the Russians
- June 15, 2016: Guccifer 2.0 appeared on the Internet claiming responsibility for the DNC hack, releases opposition research on Trump
- June 15, 2016: Vice releases opposition research on Trump
- Aug. 9, 2016: Wikileaks offered a "$20K reward for information leading to conviction for the murder of DNC staffer Seth Rich"
- Aug. 25, 2016: A chat between Guccifer 2.0 and actress Robin Young appeared on the internet in which Guccifer 2.0 admits he got the info from Seth Rich and that Wikileaks Julian Assange is in cahoots with the Russians. Robin Young later claimed that all of her direct messages were missing.
As pointed out by Stack, the new evidence "further illustrates how baseless the Russian conspiracy theory is and casts suspicion on none other than the DNC and possibly even the [Obama] White House."

DAWSON COUNTY, Ga. — The man who is accused of killing his wife in front of their two children outside a Dawson County fire department was in court Wednesday.
Jeremy Wade Gibson had a probable cause hearing in a Dawson County magistrate court.
Gibson has been in custody since last month after allegedly shooting his wife, Amy Alexandria Gibson, 44, to death. Their children, ages 8 and 5, were in the back seat of the vehicle. They were not injured in the shooting. Authorities say they do have a domestic violence history with them.
RELATED: Deputies called to home at least 8 times in months leading to wife being shot outside fire station
An investigator with the Dawson County Sheriff's Office, Jeff Moore, testified on the stand.
Moore says that Gibson claimed Amy was sexually assaulting the children in the parking lot of an elementary school, near where they were going to be releasing a turtle they found.
Surveillance video from the school shows that at no time would Gibson have been able to observe such type of an assault, Moore said. He said that at no time were either of them outside of the vehicle and that Amy was seen speeding away once Gibson's vehicle showed up.
Gibson told investigators following the incident he blacked out once he got to the fire station where the shooting occurred.
Moore said he was calm, sweaty and did not show any emotion when he made contact with him on scene.
Moore said there was no evidence that Gibson was acting in self defense.
Gibson is being charged with felony murder, cruelty children in the first degree, aggravated assault and firearms charges.
Moore said there were several calls and incidents at the Gibson home prior to the shooting incident.
Judge Lisa Thurmond found probable cause in the murder. The case is now bound over to Dawson Superior Court.

It's a rainy Friday in the Carolinas but I'm not complaining. This rain is greatly appreciated because we need it. Our yard has been looking like a dry cracked desert for weeks. We're supposed to get more rain throughout the weekend. So we'll be hanging out indoors for the most part. In the meanwhile though, let's catch up friends!
Recently . . .
Ended | Our 2018-19 homeschool year has finally ended. Hello Summer Break!!! These last 8 days of being able to sleep-in have been glorious y'all. Although, the first day I forgot to turn off my alarms and ended waking up early. This school year was a bit of a challenge.
I'm definitely going to sit down and write out my thoughts to share with you all. Homeschooling is something that I'm very passionate about but I realized it's one of the things that I don't really go much into detail about here on the blog. I want to change that.
Designed | Remember when I told y'all that I restarted bullet journaling? Well, I finally got around to designing the start of my June spread. It's nothing elaborate but I love the bright colors. I'm toying with the idea of giving each week of this month a different spread design. We'll see how it goes though.
Excited | Our vegetable garden is really taking off and we're so excited. So far we've harvested two pea pods. I know that doesn't seem like a lot but it is considering everything else we planted takes about 3 months to harvest minus the collard greens. We started everything from seed with the exception of our lone tomato plant.
When you start things from seeds versus buying seedlings or plants from the store, it can seem like it takes forever for things to really get on and popping. I am disappointed that our lettuce bolted though. I've done some more research though and I'm ready to try my hand at replanting it.
Watched | We saw The Secret Life Of Pets 2 and it was adorable. The overall theme for this movie was about learning to face and overcome our fears. I think it's worth a watch. The kids have already asked to see it again. I've also started watching the Charmed reboot now that the first season is available on Netflix. So far so good. I love that the Charmed Ones are POC/Black Latinas this time around.
Participated | Lashawn from Everyday Eyecandy started a #FifteenSecondsOfSummer project and I've had a blast participating in it. I missed two days this week because I started feeling under the weather but I'm hoping right back on the wagon. I love that once summer is over we'll have these little clips to look back on.
What have you been up to recently? Let's chat in the comments.

Trevor Phillips today made good on his promise to relinquish some of his power – a pledge made in the aftermath of a spate of resignations from the equalities watchdog
Exclusive by Lester Holloway
In a departure from the previous set-up Phillips announced that the Equalities and Human Rights Commission is to get a senior official and commissioner dedicated to race equality.
The explicit recognition of race as a 'strand' within the equalities institution for the first time complete with its' own champions, sets the tone for a different kind of commission to the one that has operated since 2007.
Speaking at an east London seminar looking at the impact of the recession on Black communities, Phillips delivered on a promise he made to The Times in August this year to devolve power and allow the different figureheads for specific equalities subject areas more profile.
Phillips told the Black Training and Enterprise Group conference this afternoon that he had appointed Alan Christie, who is currently the EHRC lead officer for the private sector, to "focus on race for the commission." Christie previously worked with Phillips at the now-abolished Commission for Racial Equality.
Phillips also promised that "a new commissioner, when appointed, will also be dealing with race." It is expected that the other strands – disabilities, gender, sexual orientation, age, and religion – will also get their own designated officials and commissioners.
Phillips said that the CEHR was "trying our best to listen hard" to concerns of the various equalities interests. But he stressed he was still keen to see the organisation continue with a common approach to equality, commenting that "discrimination doesn't come in neat boxes", and issues often overlapped.
Six commissioners resigned this summer after the government reappointed Phillips to serve another three year term. Some former commissioners, like Dr Kay Hampton, questioned the chairman's style of leadership.
Today's move appears to pave the way for a more harmonious relationship with other senior figures for the remainder of his time at the helm.

Last Supper at Chick-fil-A
For weeks, we've been hearing about fast-food chain Chick –fil-A and the very public stance taken by its president, Dan Cathy, opposing gay marriage. We've learned about mayors who want to block the company from coming to their town. We've seen reports about the crowds lining up for Chick-fil-A Appreciation Day, an idea suggested by conservative pundit and former Republican presidential contender Mike Huckabee. And no doubt, we'll be seeing reports about the counter protest – namely, today's same-sex "kiss in" that's being organized by gay rights activists at Chick-fil-A locations across the country.
But in the midst of all this, we've not heard a thing about the issue that's at the real heart – or breast, as it were – of the matter. Yup, the chicken itself. You may think that food is actually besides the point in the controversy. But hear me out.

Other services allow customers to "check-in" on their location.
Small businesses all over the country have seen the benefits that an active presence in social media can have. Whether it be Facebook or LinkedIn, many entrepreneurs have found that the use of a new platform can be advantageous. One of the most notable sites to catch the wave is foursquare.com. By seeing when customers "check in" to a location, businesses can better understand their habits. Yet, even as the site dominates the marketplace, there is another application that is hot on its heals.
One of the most popular sites to emerge from the over-saturated marketplace is Gowalla.com. The website, like foursquare, allows users to check in but differs in that it allows users to leave advice for others who are interested learning more.
According to a recent article in OpenForum.com, the site first gained notice at the 2010 South by Southwest festival in Austin, Texas. The site also allows users to create specific "trips."
"Creating Gowalla trips in your neighborhood or city is a great way to start using Gowalla and encourage interaction from local users," writes Jolie O'Dell of the social media site Mashable. " Many brands have also worked with Gowalla to create in-game virtual items."
The customer-tracking aspect of these sites is one of the hottest topics in news for small business. The options are out there for small business owners to use the inexpensive applications to increase profits.

Reebok has announced it is collaborating with Victoria Beckham on a long-term basis and the designer's first collection for the brand will launch in late 2018.
The collection will sit under the "Reebok Innovation Collective" – a brand initiative that focuses on developing innovative and future-focused footwear and apparel from conceptual runway designs to tech-driven products. Collaborators in the initiative include British design duo Cottweiler and Demna Gvasalia's Vetements.
Reebok senior vice president of women's initiatives Corinna Werkle said the brand looked to work with women who wanted to "change the world" and described Beckham as a "true visionary". "[She] possesses a relentless desire to help women become the best version of themselves. This desire shines through in everything she touches, especially her designs, which continue to push industry standards season after season. We cannot wait for the world to see what she will do with our collaboration," Werkle said.
Beckham said she was "incredibly excited" about embarking on the partnership. "I have always championed instilling confidence in women and Reebok is a brand that has been at the forefront of this same message for decades." she said.
"To have the opportunity to challenge the traditional notions of fitness wear within a fashion context is something I have always wanted to do. I have long incorporated sportswear into my wardrobe and daily life and I am thrilled to be coming together with Reebok on such a dynamic proposition," Beckham added.

Penang food never used to appeal to me even though my mum is a native Penangite. It was only until my recent trip to her hometown earlier this year did I start to appreciate the intense flavors of classic dishes like Assam Laksa, Penang Prawn Mee, Char Kway Teow, and others.
I had a craving for Penang Fruit Rojak last night so I suggested to Pari a place which I ate several years ago, Penang Kitchen, next to Coronation Plaza, along Bukit Timah Road.
The place is a small, casual eatery and the menu is pretty much what you would expect for a Penang Restaurant.
We ordered the Assam Laksa, Char Kway Teow, Fruit Rojak, Almond Drink to share, and a Gula Melaka dessert to round things off.
The Fruit Rojak was the first to arrive and with the proper ingredients (prawn paste, peanuts, fresh fruit and cucumber), it shouldn't be too difficult to make this at home.
Still, it managed to satisfy my craving, though it cost a rather princely $7.80 for a small plate.
The Assam Laksa was a little different from what I expect. The portion was huge, and the Laksa gravy full of chopped sardines, though the flavor in itself was a little different from the typical Penang Laksa.
The Char Kway Teow was fried well, and had the "wok hei" taste, though if there were cockles it would have been perfect. I'm pretty certain cockles don't form part of traditional Penang Fried Kway Teow though, so the local version still wins for me.
We ended the meal with a bowl of Gula Melaka sago, though it didn't leave a lasting impression on me.
In all, we spent around $33 for the meal.
It's not easy to find good and authentic Penang food, and the best I have eaten so far is at Jason's Penang Cuisine, located in ABC Hawker Centre (though the owners have a slight attitude problem). Penang Kitchen does its best to offer authentic Penang fare, albeit at a cost. However, the quality doesn't separate itself much from Jason's, and the price is a tad too expensive for me to consider coming again.

Another amazing blog by Nutmeg Nanny. What great recipes she has, Nutmeg Nanny's blogs are all a must read. Here is a quick preview.
"If you saw my post on Monday about my tour of Tuthilltown Spirits you will love this post too!

OAKLAND — A sign admonishing the residents of an East Oakland housing complex not to skateboard, roller skate or ride bicycles became the site Wednesday of a makeshift memorial for 15-year-old Hadari Askari.
The high school student and Oakland Fire Department summer intern was gunned down inside the locked gates of the Lion Creek Crossing housing estate Tuesday evening, less than 100 yards from his front door and within view of dozens of apartments. Family members, friends and residents gathered Wednesday morning to mourn the loss of the boy known around the neighborhood as "cousin" by lighting candles, hugging and crying, and placing several teddy bears near the site of the shooting, which still bore faint traces of blood.
"He was my baby doll, my first little brother, my toy," said Anthonesha Alexander, 23, Hadari's older sister, fingering the collar of the pink Abercrombie & Fitch polo shirt that was her brother's favorite. "He got jumped in the most senseless way. They targeted him out of ignorance and murdered him brutally."
Hadari, whose name means "young soldier" in Swahili, was popular with kids around the neighborhood. They often came around asking to play basketball with the 6-foot-1 teen or join him at home to play video games. He baby-sat for other kids, looked after some of the older folks in the neighborhood, and volunteered at a local computer technology program.
Hadari had just begun the fulfillment of a lifelong dream of becoming a firefighter. Just days before he was gunned down, his family sat down to look at a home movie in which a 3-year old Hadari is asked what he wants to do when he grows up. "I'm Hadari and I want to be a firefighter," he says to the camera. On Monday, he started a seven-week internship with the Oakland Fire Department.
"During orientation, he was very attentive and raised his hand with enthusiasm when asked who wants to become a firefighter," a saddened Oakland Fire Chief Teresa Reed said Wednesday. "Hadari stood out to me; he appeared to be a good kid, with a good spirit. Life shouldn't be like this for our youth. My prayers goes out to Hadari and his family."
Hadari, who suffered from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, was a student at Stars, a San Leandro high school for kids with behavioral problems. He planned to transfer to Skyline, where he would have been a junior in the fall.
The circumstances of the fatal shooting, which happened about 8:08 p.m. Tuesday in the 6700 block of Leona Creek Drive, remain unclear.
Diane Metivier, a 51-year-old nursing home worker, heard shots and was one of the first to come upon Hadari lying in a pool of blood and gasping for breath. She rushed back to her apartment and called 911. "I've never experienced anything like this," she said, "You live in a gated community, you think it's safe."
Alexander, Hadari's sister, said she believes the killers jumped over the metal fence while chasing her brother and gunned him down as he tried to turn a corner and head for home. So far, none of her neighbors have come forward with information to the police, though she believes many know what happened. "It's hurtful when people come and give condolences but won't say anything about what happened," she said.
Officer Jason Andersen said Wednesday that police don't have a motive yet for the shooting and no arrests have been made.
The killing was Oakland's 62nd homicide of the year, the same number as last year at this time.
Shaken residents of the gated complex continued to pour out of their apartments Wednesday morning.
"I just came to say a prayer for him and his family," said Gail Ellis, a 59-year old wheelchair-bound neighbor. She sighed and shook her head. "This really shook me up."
Police and Crime Stoppers of Oakland are offering up to $10,000 in reward money for information leading to the arrest of the gunman. Anyone with information can call police at 510-238-3821 or Crime Stoppers at 510-777-8572 or 510-777-3211.

Remember when I said the second instalment of "Upcoming Books" had "given me an idea which I'll share with you later" (Hogg 2013c)? I'm ready to share it now.
Since writing that blog post, I've combed through Amazon and Books in Print's Global Edition for non-fiction vampire books published this year. I compiled my findings into an Amazon list: "Vampire Non-Fiction: 2013, Vol. 1." You'll find it in the sidebar of this blog under the "Listmania!" heading, along with two different lists—both mentioned in previous entries (Hogg 2013a; 2013c).
Yeah, "Vol. 1." It turns out you can only add 40 entries to Amazon "Listmania!" lists. I discovered that while writing this blog post. That said, the current tally's 41. It hasn't stopped me from creating the second volume, as I'm sure I'll come across others I've overlooked.
So, what's the point of "Vampire Non-Fiction: 2013"? Well, I've learned a few things from my trawlings through Amazon, y'arr. Firstly, many non-fiction vampire books get published over the year. Many intriguing titles—yet most are obscure. Even to me (that's why "Overlooked Books" exists [Hogg 2013b]). Second, there's little in the way of a centralised record for these things. A bibliography. Take the "Non-Fiction" page of The Vampire Library (2013). It's pretty good—well, decent—but many items featured on it are more than a decade old. That's fine, but what about the new stuff? Like I said, there's a lot out there.
That's where "Vampire Non-Fiction: 2013" comes in. It's a cross between an annual; Amazon "Wish List"; catalogue; bibliography; my "Overlooked Books," "Upcoming Books" and "Vampire Library" segments—and just in time for Christmas, too!
I also intend to create one for 2014. And who knows, maybe more for previous years. We'll see. But let's move onto my selection process for the list.
First, no reprints. They're the same book. Don't care if it's got a new cover. Same deal for Kindle versions. It's never been published in ebook format? Irrelevant (though I have included ebooks). Unless it's got original content—which should be mentioned in the product description—doesn't count. Sure, it might be a different format, but it's the same previously-published book.
Editions are a different matter. Second, third, revised, whatever. They add something to the original. Do books with new prefaces, even if the bulk of the content's unchanged, count? Sure! They're in.
What if the book's not strictly about vampires, but gives them decent coverage? That's a tough one. To settle that matter, I've followed a simple rule: if vampires are mentioned in the book's title, I figure they're given substantial coverage. It's an admittedly flawed approach,¹ but the closest option I've got to actually buying them and manually checking their contents. That's why books like Alison Peirse's After Dracula: The 1930s Horror Film, Varla Ventura's Banshees, Werewolves, Vampires, and Other Creatures of the Night: Facts, Fictions, and First-Hand Accounts and Christopher Hart's Manga for the Beginner Midnight Monsters: How to Draw Zombies, Vampires, and Other Delightfully Devious Characters of Japanese Comics made the cut.
I've also counted works about specific vampire literature, TV shows and film as non-fiction vampire books. So, books like BookCaps' The Dracula Companion, Jennifer K. Stuller's Fan Phenomena: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Maria Lindgren Leavenworth and Malin Isaksson's Fanged Fan Fiction: Variations on Twilight, True Blood and The Vampire Diaries, Jennifer Vogt's The Image of Vampires in the TV Series "The Vampire Diaries" and Catalin Gruia's What About Dracula? Romania's Schizophrenic Dilemma are also included.
Those two qualifiers merge for a few inclusions—even if the vampire aspect seems tacked on. I'm talking about Dan Elish's American Life and Movies from the Ten Commandments to Twilight and Kathleen McConnell's Pain, Porn and Complicity: Women Heroes from Pygmalian to Twilight—both added with great hesitation.
¹ Consider it a friendly warning. Certain titles over-represent their subject matter: Vampires in the Carpathians: Magical Acts, Rites, and Beliefs in Subcarpathian Rus' (1998) and Forests of the Vampire: Slavic Myth (2003) spring to mind (Hogg 2008).

text: Paper Title Application Of Integrated Education As An Anti-Bullying Approach To Reduce The Number Of School Bullying: A Literature Study Abstract Bullying is a problem affecting the life of children worldwide. Bullying is an aggressive behavior that done directly or indirectly that involves an imbalance of strength or power. Many perpetrators done bullying because they thought have a high power and do bullying to another people. The form of bullying can be done by physical, verbal or social and it is repeated behavior. Most bullying occurred in middle school and the most common types is social and verbal bullying. Based on the data from Indonesian Child Protection Commission (KPAI) from 2011 to 2014, the number of bullying case was reported among the education community reached 369 from all kinds of complaint. In the United States also showed that 1 in 4 children students say they have been bullied at school. The case of bullying still increase from year to year and it is became a serious case that should be solved because many problems arise to the victims such as psychological injury that affect the behavior of victims. Both in terms of psychological and physical that will affect the productivity and quality of life. The psychological impact of bullying include stress, panic or nervousness, recurring memories of the incident, and impaired concentration in school, the victims of bullying also experience hyperactivity, difficulty to think and difficult to develop their talent. This is a detrimental effect that we should solve, because the children are the young generation that should have a best performance in education also in social life. This is required an integrated education from the school, parent also community. There are three approaches to prevent the bullying cases that need a best cooperation between all parties involved, that is education at home (home-based bullying prevention), environmental education in schools (school-based bullying prevention), also education from community (community-based bullying prevention). All parties such as family, school and community should have an awareness of a coordinated approach for the creation of a bully-free atmosphere, with the application of integrated education it will reduce the number of school bullying among students. Index Terms — Bullying, Detrimental Effect, Integrated Education, Students

Mated Buckfast Cross Queen - Apis Mellifera BuckfastAbout the Buckfast BeeWe are now taking reservation for 2020 mated Buckfast cross queens. £5 deposit is paid to reserve your queen, the balance of £31 will be invoiced when the queens are ready. Please do bear in mind the dates are provisional and the weeks may slip back depending on the weather. As soon as we have information on dates we will email you with an update.The Buckfast bee, often referred to as the renowned Brother Adam bee is a cross of many strains of bee from Brother Adam's search for the most ideal bee with the development of the Buckfast breeding programme. It has a colour variation that is quite unique. The colours can vary from very light to stripy to very dark, this is no doubt as a result of the wide genetic pool used to keep the variability of the Buckfast strain. Regardless of their colour, the spring build up and over wintering abilities are the same.
These Buckfast crosses originate from Greece and are breed to increase resistance to disease. The queens are open mated, they have a boundless capacity for foraging, as well as being very hygienic bees which goes hand in hand with their genetic disposition for disease resistance They are very nice to handle with a lower swarming tendency As with all hybrid queens the second generations can be quite different depending on what drones they mate with.
These F1 Queens are naturally open mated. We do not sell artificially inseminated queens (AI).All our queens come marked, Blue for 2020.About delivery & OrderingOur first are available from around early April but this is weather dependant.
