Who can be a CE provider?
1. Who can become an IRS CE provider? (revised 9/23/13)
An IRS-approved CE provider must be:
I) An accredited educational institution;
II) Recognized for continuing education purposes by the licensing body of any state, territory, or possession of the United States, including a commonwealth, or the District of Columbia;
III) Approved by a qualifying organization (an IRS CE accrediting organization) as a provider of continuing education on subject matters designed for enrolled agents or enrolled retirement plan agents; or
IV) Any other professional organization, society, or business recognized by the IRS as a provider of continuing education on subject matters designed for enrolled agents or enrolled retirement plan agents.
All CE providers, regardless of status of CE provider, must obtain a continuing education provider number to offer IRS approved continuing education. You can apply for a provider number using our online system. There is an annual fee for each calendar year to obtain a continuing education provider number (currently $419).
2. What is an "accredited educational institution"? (posted 12/6/11)
It is an educational institution that has been accredited by a national or state educational accrediting body.
3. What is a CE provider "recognized for continuing education purposes by the licensing body of a State, territory, or possession of the United States, including a Commonwealth, or the District of Columbia"? (posted 12/6/11)
It is an individual or entity that is recognized for continuing education purposes by a licensing body of any State, territory, or possession of the United States, including a Commonwealth, or the District of Columbia. For example: The Oregon Board of Accountancy registers sponsors of approved CPE for certified public accountants licensed in Oregon, the Minimum Continuing Legal Education Department of the Oregon State Bar approves continuing education programs for Oregon attorneys on behalf of the Oregon Supreme Court and the Oregon Board of Tax Practitioners approves sponsors of continuing education for Oregon's tax return preparers.
4. What is a CE provider "recognized for continuing education purposes by an IRS CE accrediting organization"? (revised 12/16/11)
It is an individual or entity that is recognized for continuing education purposes by a qualifying organization as a provider of continuing education on subject matters within section 10.6(f) of Circular 230. At this time, the only IRS approved accrediting organization is:
National Association of State Boards of Accountancy, Inc.
National Registry of CPE Sponsors
Phone: 1.866.627.2286
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
5. My organization is a CE provider recognized for continuing education purposes by the California Tax Educational Council (CTEC). Is my organization a CE provider recognized by the licensing body of a State? (posted 12/6/11)
Yes. Under California law an approved curriculum provider for tax preparers is an organization approved by CTEC. See CAL. BUS. & PROF § 22251(c) (West 2011). A CE provider that identifies itself as an organization recognized by CTEC must complete the Form 8498, Continuing Education Provider Application and Request for Provider Number, providing a copy of the approval letter it received from CTEC. The Form 8498 can be completed and submitted using our online system.
6. I work for a state or local chapter of a national organization that offers CE programs. I am offering a program that was created by the national organization. Do I need to register separately and obtain a separate provider/program number? (posted 12/6/11)
The state or local chapter must receive their own provider/program number(s), even if they are using programs provided by their national organization since they will have responsibility for record-keeping and reporting PTIN level programs.
Provider Application Process
1. What do I need to submit in order to become an IRS-approved CE provider?
Submission requirements vary based on provider status. View this chart to determine what you must attach to your application.
2. What is the fee to become an IRS-approved continuing education provider? (revised 9/23/13)
The third-party vendor administering the continuing education program for the IRS charges each CE provider an annual fee (currently $419). There is no fee for adding additional programs during the same renewal year and the IRS is not currently charging an additional fee.
3. Approximately how long will it take to approve continuing education providers? (posted 12/6/11)
Online status i, ii, and iii applicants applying for provider and program numbers generally will be issued numbers within 24 hours of a complete application.
Online status iv CE provider applicants generally should receive a response 21 days after a completed application is received.
View a chart with the different approval times based on provider statuses.
NOTE: All paper applications will take 6-8 weeks to process.
4. Can I offer a program for credit before I get a program number? (posted 5/29/12)
No. All programs must be approved by the IRS and receive an official program number before being offered to students for IRS credit.
5. How do I change my point of contact? (revised 3/3/14)
Contact the IRS Continuing Education Help Line at 1-855-296-3150 between 9 a.m.-6 p.m. ET.
6. I am the Point of Contact, but need to update my address, e-mail, or other contact information, what do I do? (posted 5/29/12)
You can update your contact information by accessing your online CE provider account and making changes through the Account Management feature on your home page.
7. How do I change the information showing in the public listing? (revised 3/3/14)
Contact the IRS Continuing Education Help Line at 1-855-296-3150 between 9 a.m.-6 p.m. ET. You should periodically check the public listing and test the links to ensure your information is relevant and displays what you want tax preparers to see.
8. I received an IRS CE Provider Approval letter in my secure mailbox in the electronic system, but I also got another document that appeared to be an IRS-approved logo. What do I do with it? (posted 12/6/11)
The Return Preparer Office has created an "IRS-Approved Continuing Education Provider" logo that you may use on your web site and in marketing materials. We also encourage you to use the logo on your continuing education completion certificates that you provide your attendees so they can easily see that you are IRS-approved. Follow the instructions received with the logo for appropriate use.
1. Can the fee be waived under certain circumstances? (revised 9/23/13)
No. The annual fee (currently $419) is strictly a vendor fee for providing the electronic service. IRS does not receive any of the fee and does not have the authority to waive the fee.
2. We are currently an approved provider for EAs. Do we need to pay the annual fee (currently $419) in order to be listed on the public listing? (revised 9/23/13)
Yes. All providers must register in the new system. Upon registration, you will be included in the Public Listing.
3. My organization is a state agency. Can we receive a fee waiver? (revised 3/20/13)
There is no waiver of the CE provider fee. If you are offering credit to enrolled agents or enrolled retirement plan agents, you must apply to become an IRS-approved CE provider and pay the fee.
What programs qualify for IRS approval?
1. Is there a minimum length of time that my continuing education program must be to qualify for IRS approved continuing education? (updated 1/3/12)
Yes. Continuing education credit is only given for full contact hours, or multiple thereof. A contact hour is 50 minutes in length, excluding breaks and introductions.
2. What must a continuing education program cover to be considered an ethics program? (posted 12/6/11)
An ethics or professional conduct program must be designed for the tax professional and principally cover ethical issues or professional conduct issues that arise in a tax practice, including return preparation, environment. For example, programs that address provisions of Treasury Circular 230 will qualify. A program description of an ethics program must include the following: succinct topics for discussion, how the program will be presented (panel, lecture, etc.), and how practical application of the subject matter will be tested in real world situations (hypothetical examples, panel discussion, fact patterns).
3. What must a continuing education program cover to be considered a federal tax law update program? (revised 3/20/13)
A qualified federal tax law update program must provide a practical working knowledge of the latest legislative tax law changes and associated IRS forms/instructions/publications.
4. What must a continuing education program cover to be considered a federal tax law/federal tax-related program? (posted 12/6/11)
Tax Law programs must cover federal tax law topics typically reported on Form1040 returns, as well as, other returns and covering basic to advanced topics. This category does not include: business skills, leadership, practice development or personal development, management skills, negotiation, communication programs, or programs such as learning to use software products.
5. Can I receive continuing education credit for completing a program covering state tax law issues? (posted 12/6/11)
Generally, no. A program that covers state tax law issues will not qualify for IRS continuing education credit unless at least 80% of the program material consists of a comparison between federal and state tax laws. Programs approved by state licensing bodies must meet this criteria to qualify for IRS continuing education credit.
6. Will there be best practice guidance for program descriptions? (posted 12/6/11)
Yes, click here for program description examples (pdf).
The general rule: succinctly describe the major elements or contents of each program offered in a manner that provides sufficient information for the reviewer to make a determination that the program covers appropriate subject matter (federal tax, federal tax-related, qualified retirement plan matters, or ethics). Also include the manner in which the program will be delivered (e.g. speaker, panel discussion, lecture). If it is an ethics program, how will application of the subject matter be verified (e.g. scenarios presented and discussed).
7. What if the CE program is only offered in Spanish? (posted 12/6/11)
The program material, if required, can be submitted in Spanish if there is not an English version available. The program name and program description, however, must be submitted in English.
8. When should I request a program number? (e.g., when I'm planning the program or just before I begin advertising the program) (posted 1/4/12)
An organization should only request the program number when they have the program material available that they will be providing to attendees. Please do not request a program number until the program has been fully developed for your audience.
9. What does a program number look like? (posted 1/4/12)
Review this program number breakdown showing the various components of the number.
10. What is the difference between a group internet and a self-study program? (revised 9/21/12)
Group internet programs must ensure attendance during the entire program (e.g. utilizes polling questions throughout the program or a system that provides attendance reports, such as an IRS webinar) and are generally, but not always live programs. Self-study, including archived or taped programs, requires a means for evaluating successful completion of a program (an examination). Further detail can be found in the CE Provider Standards document (Standard Number 5).
11. Can you accept credit hours in 1.5, 2.5 or other increments outside of one hour? (posted 3/12/12)
No, Circular 230 requires delivery in one hour increments (one hour = 50 minutes).
12. Can I obtain a program number for a program covering state tax law issues? (posted 3/12/12)
Generally, no. A program that covers state tax law issues will not qualify for IRS continuing education credit unless at least 80% of the program material consists of a comparison between federal and state tax laws. Programs approved by state licensing bodies must meet these criteria to qualify for IRS continuing education credit.
13. What if a program covers multiple topics/categories? (posted 5/29/12)
If you are offering an 8-hour program, and 2 hours are ethics and 2 hours are federal tax updates and the remainder covers federal tax, you will need to obtain 3 program numbers - one for each category. This will determine the exact category of credit the preparers will receive. It also allows providers to mix and match and offer topics separately.
14. When is a new program number required? (posted 3/12/12)
Any program (course) you want to offer for continuing education credit MUST have a program number. You must put this program number on the attendee's certificate of completion.
15. How should we handle a program that is offered via two separate delivery methods (e.g., on-line and in person)? (posted 3/12/12)
You must apply for 2 program numbers – one for each delivery method.
16. Do CPE providers need a new program number when the same course is being repeated on different dates and / or in different locations? (posted 3/12/12)
You don't need a new program number for different dates or locations. You only need to obtain a new program number if the program is being offered by a different delivery method (e.g., one is in person, one is online, and one is self-study) or if the content of the program changes.
17. What is the best way to add a program that is a multi-day conference? (posted 5/29/12)
If you are offering a multi-day conference, for example a conference with cafeteria-style options of 25 different topics, you should obtain 25 separate program numbers - one for each topic. When adding programs, you must define them appropriately as federal tax, tax update or ethics.
18. Do you expect us to define who the audience is when we submit our programs?(posted 3/12/12)
Yes, you must select an audience(s) when you apply for your program number.
19. Will a last minute change in a program speaker (after the issuance of a program number) (due to speaker illness, etc) invalidate the program number? (posted 3/12/12)
No, but speakers must still meet Standard #12 with regard to speaker qualifications.
20. How do CPE providers notify RPO (post event) of any last minute changes to the program content/topic? (posted 3/12/12)
If there are last minute changes to the program material/content, then you must obtain a new program number. Log into your CE Provider account and select the "Add a Program" button. You will be prompted through the process of adding the information. A new program number will be appended to your Approval Letter once approved and be sent to your secure e-mail box.
21. Sometimes the same program is presented at multiple events. What should we do if we know that some preparers will attend the same program and receive credit for a program they have already attended? (revised 3/12/12)
We understand that this may occur and we will be monitoring this practice. As a general rule, preparers should not repeat a program with the same enrollment cycle. However, we do understand that a preparer may have a reason to take a program again if they feel they need a refresher on the subject matter.
22. Do panel discussions qualify as IRS approved programs? (posted 3/12/12)
If your panel discussion contains a write-up of the questions and issues that will be discussed, it will likely be eligible for IRS approved credit. If the program is just an open-ended Q&A session, it will likely not be approved.
23. As an IRS approved provider, do my programs qualify for attorney or CPA continuing education credit? (revised 3/20/13)
The rules vary by state and type of credential. If you are unsure if your programs qualify for more than EA and/or ERPA credit, it would be prudent to inform prospective students that they should check with their respective state licensing board or accrediting organization to determine if a program meets their requirements. You may also want to consider adding a statement to your certificates of completion such as: "Individuals with other professional credentials should check with their state licensing board or accrediting organization to determine if this program meets their continuing education requirements."
24. Is there a word count formula that I can use to calculate CE hours for self-study programs? (posted 5/29/12)
Yes. You can use the word count formula developed by the AICPA and NASBA.
Providers Already Approved for EAs/ERPAs
1. My organization was approved as a CE provider for enrolled agent and enrolled retirement plan agent programs under the former process overseen by the Office of Professional Responsibility. Do I have to take any action? (revised 9/23/13)
Yes. You must apply for a new provider number through the new online system and pay the annual fee (currently $419).
2. My organization is an accredited educational institution. Students could get IRS credit for our programs previously, but we never applied to the IRS for approval. Has this changed? (revised 9/23/13)
Yes. Previously, enrolled agents and enrolled retirement plan agents could obtain IRS CE credit for completing qualified continuing education at an accredited educational institution even if the educational institution did not register with the IRS. Now, accredited educational institutions must register and pay the annual fee (currently $419) for their programs to qualify for IRS CE credit.
Recordkeeping and Upload
1. Are IRS approved CE providers required to obtain information about program attendees? (updated 1/3/12)
Yes. You should gather the first and last name of the student, their preparer tax identification number (PTIN), and the number of CE hours received if less than the full amount of the program.
2. What do we do with information gathered from program attendees? (posted 3/12/12)
The first and last name of the program attendee, their preparer tax identification number (PTIN), the program number, the number of CE hours and the CE program completion date must be sent to IRS via file upload through your online CE Provider Account.
3. Are providers required to do real time reporting of attendee data to the IRS? (posted 3/12/12)
No. Providers are generally required to report quarterly until the fourth quarter when reporting must be more frequent. Providers may opt to report after each program offered or more often than quarterly. Approved providers receive detailed reporting instructions.
4. Do we have to collect PTIN information for 2012 and forward? What about prior years? (posted 3/12/12)
You must begin collecting PTIN information in 2012. You do not have to obtain PTIN information for prior years.
5. What are the recordkeeping requirements for a CE Provider? (posted 1/4/12)
Records must be maintained by the CE Provider for four years verifying the participants who attended and completed the program.
6. Do CE providers have to retain records of program materials? (revised 9/24/12)
Yes. You must retain all program materials (syllabus, program material, evaluation forms, master certificate of completion, and all records of who took programs and when) for a period of 4 years.
7. Do I have to keep original hardcopies of my records or can they be electronic? (posted 5/2/2013)
You may retain your records in either paper or electronic format. You must be able to produce all original documents or scanned files of all original documents when requested by the IRS.
8. What information do I need to include when reporting the attendees of my program(s)? (posted 3/12/12)
You must report: first and last name of the PTIN holder, PTIN (PXXXXXXXX), the number of CE hours given, the program number assigned by the IRS, and the date the participant completed the program.
9. As a provider, do I have to upload PTIN information on everyone who took my programs? (revised 3/8/13)
You should report information for everyone who provides you a PTIN. It is the responsibility of the student to provide you their PTIN.
10. How do I report program completion/PTIN information to the IRS? (posted 3/12/12)
There are two methods:
- The organization's Point of Contact, responsible for the provider's online account in the IRS CE provider system, must log in to their account to access the PTIN upload template (available on the front page of the account). You will be able to input the data directly into the IRS CE provider system. This option is a manual data entry process and providers will input information for each preparer by program delivered. This method is recommended for providers submitting 25 or less individual PTIN-level CE records at a time.
- You can input the individual PTIN holder data into the Excel template provided by the IRS and upload the document to your individual IRS CE Provider account. This method is recommended for providers submitting more than 25 individual PTIN-level CE records at one time.
11. How often do I have to report program completion information to IRS? (revised 5/21/12)
For 2012, the system will open for input and upload on July 1, 2012.
For 2012 ONLY, you will be required to upload program completion information by September 30, 2012 for all programs delivered between January 1, 2012 and September 30, 2012. During the fourth quarter (October 1 –December 31), you must report program completion information within ten business days of delivery of each program. This will help ensure that CE information is available during the PTIN renewal period.
Beginning in 2013 and beyond, during the first nine months of the year, you must report program completion information quarterly at a minimum (by March 31, June 30, and September 30). During the fourth quarter (October 1 –December 31), you must report program completion information within ten business days of delivery of each program.
NOTE: the system allows you to upload data more frequently than the required intervals.
12. Where can I find the template for uploading PTIN information? (posted 3/12/12)
Download the template here. The template is also available within the CE system via your user account home page.
13. Is there a size limit on the Excel PTIN upload template? (posted 3/26/12)
Yes. The maximum file size is 2MB, which equates to approximately 20,000 records. If your file exceeds 2MB, the information must be broken up into multiple files and uploaded separately.
14. What do I do if an attendee doesn't have a PTIN? (revised 3/20/13)
Attendees must provide a PTIN if they wish to obtain credit that meets the CE requirement for the EA or ERPA programs.
15. If I delivered a program in January and I failed to collect PTINs, what should I do? (posted 3/12/12)
Attempt to contact the attendees to get their PTINs. Collecting the PTIN is a requirement stated in your provider approval letter, the jurat your Point of Contact signed when registering to become an IRS approved provider, and in CE FAQs.
16. How will I know if the PTIN that I collected is correct? (revised 12/18/12)
The IRS will validate the PTIN when you submit it. If it is incorrect, the record(s) will be returned to you and your Point of Contact notified by e-mail. IRS will also validate the program number, date of program completion and number of CE credit hours.
17. Do I have to collect PTINs from EAs and ERPAs? (posted 3/8/13)
Only if they have a PTIN and want the information to display in their online PTIN account in the future. All EAs must have PTINs. Not all ERPAs are required to obtain PTINs.
Adding/Changing/Deleting Programs
1. My organization has already received approval, but I want to add programs. How do I do that? (posted 1/4/12)
Log into the CE Provider system. On the front page, you should see the programs you have approved and an "Add A Program" button in the "Application" section. If you click on this button, you can designate how many programs you would like to add and input the required information for each program. Your program numbers will be sent to the Point of Contact's secure e-mail box.
New programs generally will be approved and a program number issued within 24 hours.
2. When is it okay to delete a program? (posted 4/10/14)
The following tips should assist providers in determining when to delete a program:
- If a program was created during the current calendar year (e.g. 2014) and you plan to sell or offer it for credit during the current calendar year and will have PTINs to report, do NOT delete the program.
- If you have been notified that you have been selected for a random program review, do not delete the program that was selected for review until you have been informed your review is officially closed
- If the program was created in a prior year (e.g. 2012, 2013) and you no longer intend to offer or sell the program moving forward, you may delete it. You WILL still be able to report PTIN records from those prior years.
IMPORTANT! You should only delete programs from your "list of currently approved programs". You should NEVER delete any programs from your "previous program offerings" link(s) on your homepage.
- If you have never offered or sold the program and never plan to, then you can safely delete it from your "list of currently approved programs". This would include programs created as placeholders.
1. Who is allowed to sign the certificates of completion? (posted 1/13/12)
The instructor, provider's officer, or provider's Chair of Education may sign the certificates of completion. View a sample (pdf).
2. Do we have to include the program number on the certificate of completion? (posted 3/12/12)
Yes. See the sample certificate (pdf).
3. Do I have to include the attendee's PTIN on their certificate of completion? (posted 3/12/12)
No. PTINs do not have to appear on certificates.
4. If I am a NASBA approved provider, can my certificate of completion for the IRS be a joint certificate with NASBA? (posted 3/27/12)
Yes, as long as the required information for both organizations is included on the certificate. For IRS requirements, please view the sample certificate (pdf).
5. If I am officially an approved provider for other programs (e.g., for attorneys or CPAs), may I create one program certificate that includes information for all attendees? (revised 3/20/13)
Yes. As long as your program certificate contains the required information for EA and/or ERPA programs, you may include other information required by other licensing boards or accrediting organizations.
1. What are the reporting requirements for the data on the evaluation form? Are we required to include all of the questions each time? (posted 3/12/12)
Currently, evaluations do not have to be sent to the IRS. Evaluations should be used as a reference tool to ensure providers are presenting quality CE programs or in the event of a CE Provider Review.
2. Is completion of the evaluation required by attendees? (posted 3/12/12)
Providers must provide attendees a means of evaluation, but completion of the form by attendees is voluntary. See the sample evaluation (pdf).
Evaluation forms must be retained for the recordkeeping period of four years, but currently do not need to be compiled nor sent to RPO. The feedback should be utilized in improving your program and RPO may request this information upon a CE Provider Review of programs (see Standard #9).
1. How often must my organization renew its continuing education provider status? (revised 9/23/13)
Your organization must renew its continuing education provider status and pay the annual CE Provider fee each calendar year (currently $419). Renewals will be accepted between October and December for the next calendar year.
2. Do CE providers need a new program number when the program is essentially the same as the previous year's program? (revised 9/23/13)
It depends. During the renewal process, all of your existing 2012 and 2013 approved programs will be displayed in a table. You must indicate which programs you want to continue to offer in the next calendar year and whether you want to edit them or leave them unchanged. For example:
- If you want to continue to offer a program exactly the way it is with no changes whatsoever, the program will retain its 2012 or 2013 program number
- If you want to edit an existing program, you may make changes to all fields – title, program content, category, credit hours, audience type and delivery method. Selecting this option will generate a new 2014 program number.
The CE system WILL accept PTIN records with previous year program numbers because the date of completion will determine the year the preparer gets credit.
3. What happens if a CE provider does not renew by December 31? (posted 9/26/12)
Your CE provider account will be deactivated. You will no longer be authorized to offer IRS CE programs. You may neither market yourself as an IRS Approved CE Provider nor use the IRS approved continuing education provider logo. Upon deactivation, your CE provider contact information will be removed from the IRS CE Provider Public Listing.
4. How do I renew my continuing education provider status? (revised 9/23/13)
Renew your status by logging into your existing CE Provider online account between October 1 and December 31 and selecting "Renew Now" from the Main Menu. You must also pay the annual CE Provider fee (currently $419.00). PLEASE DO NOT create a new application by selecting the "Apply Now" button on the login page.
5. Does renewal cause my CE provider number and/or program numbers to change? (revised 9/23/13)
Your CE provider number will remain the same from year to year as you renew your status. Programs numbers may change depending on how you choose to treat programs during the renewal process. See FAQ 2 above.
You can continue to offer programs with 2012 and 2013 program numbers in 2014. The CE system WILL accept PTIN records with 2012 and 2013 program numbers during 2014, because the date of completion determines the year the preparer gets credit.
6. Can I add a test preparation program during renewal? (posted 9/23/13)
A Special Enrollment Exam (SEE) test preparation program can be added as a new program during the renewal process.
Note: Adding a RTRP Test Preparation program is currently not an option.
7. How long do I have to report PTIN records if I choose not to renew an existing program? (posted 9/23/13)
If you choose not to offer an existing program in 2014, you must report any associated program completion information within ten business days of delivery of each program October 1 through December 31
8. During renewal, how would I handle a 2013 program that I offered with a 2014 completion date, but I don't intend to offer it again 2014? (posted 9/26/13)
If you offered a program in 2013 and the student has until sometime in 2014 to complete the program, you will want to select "Continue Using" for that program, even if you do not plan to offer it 2014. This will ensure the program number is accepted when you report PTIN data in 2014 and the participant receives the credit hours they earned.

Draft guidance for the website NHS Choices warning that there is no evidence that homeopathy works was suppressed by officials following lobbying by a charity set up by the Prince of Wales.
Homeopathy, which involves the use of remedies so heavily diluted with water that they no longer contain any active substance, is "rubbish", said chief medical officer Sally Davies in January to the House of Commons science and technology committee. She added that she was "perpetually surprised" that homeopathy was available in some places on the NHS.
But the government's NHS Choices website, which is intended to offer evidence-based information and advice to the public on treatments, does not reflect her view. A draft page that spelled out the scientific implausibility of homeopathic remedies was neutered by Department of Health officials. It is now uncritical, with just links to reports on the lack of evidence.
Lobbying by opponents, and the response from DH officials who did not want to take on Prince Charles's now defunct Foundation for Integrated Medicine and other supporters of homeopathy, is revealed in correspondence from the department discussing the new guidance. It was released under the Freedom of Information Act to Prof David Colquhoun of University College London, a Fellow of the Royal Society and prominent science blogger.

The People Have Spoken! Four More blah blah blah...
Published: November 14, 2012 at 5:12 pm
The ballots have finally been cast and the media got their wish. The candidate they worked their hardest to protect has come out on top. But did the people receive the victor which they need? Many will say yes, and of course I will say no. Nothing personal you see, it is just I do not agree with the policies of Mr. President. In fact I am not quite sure what they might be as he has been on the campaign trail for the last four years and we all know campaign talk is putrid drivel. From both sides of course.
What I do know is I have witnessed an utter lack of leadership on all fronts and a sad propensity to assign blame routinely. I do not find it becoming of a leader. Campaign speeches are like visiting Santa Claus and carry little weight with me as a politician will spout anything. I am happy for those on the left as they got their wish as well. I hope the next four years yield more fruit for them as statistically his strongest supporters have suffered the most.
But the media is in Valhalla. Chris Mathews went so far as to thank the storm of the century for allowing the photo ops to make O look Presidential thus insuring his victory. What a load of tripe and a more vicious comment I have not heard. How insensitive Chris. I don't buy your apology either as you are a long time political hack and winning is all that matters. No crocodile tears please.
The financial markets are not so pleased for some reason. It went slightly unnoticed but on election day the markets anticipated a Romney win and rallied strongly. Romney got wiped and for some reason the markets have been down handsomely ever since election day. Not a good omen if you ask me. What do investors fear? Answer, lots of potential policies and tax hikes and other goodies which sound good to some, but in the end harm us all. Ever heard of Obamacare? Be careful what you wish for and I will leave thoughts on it to posterity.
Fiscal cliffs on the horizon and FHA just announced they are out of reserves. CIA problems and still no answers on the loss of our Ambassador. Many questions should have been addressed by the media prior to the election yet they decided to spend their time deriding Mr. Romney and his wife. The next four ought to be fun for scandal observers. Israel and Syria are at war and of course Amad is waiting in the wings.Continued on the next page

Whoever asks about 1827 should probably use 1829 or 1830, lumping Schubert and Beethoven as in or out.
Just a suggestion for the future.
funny you should consider Schubert a major composer.
I invented the 1827 question, mostly because I would have Schubert in mind when thinking of romantic music, not so with Beethoven. but I guess 1829 would be better, just two years and you eliminate another so-called major composer.
and, BTW, if you were going to ask such a small elimination question (Schubert late works), you should at least ask 1829 to eliminate a fe w more pieces.

Symptoms of strep throat, which is very common among kids and teens, include fever, stomach pain, and red, swollen tonsils.
Strep throat usually requires treatment with antibiotics. With the proper medical care — along with plenty of rest and fluids — a child should be back to school and play within a few days.
Anybody can get strep throat, but it's most common in school-age kids and teens. These infections occur most often during the school year when big groups of kids and teens are in close quarters.
The bacteria that cause strep throat (group A streptococcus) tend to hang out in the nose and throat, so normal activities like sneezing, coughing, or shaking hands can easily spread infection from one person to another.
That's why it's so important to teach kids the importance of hand washing — good hygiene can lessen their chances of getting contagious diseases like strep throat.
Not all sore throats are strep throats. Most episodes of sore throat — which can be accompanied by a runny nose, cough, hoarseness, and red eyes — are caused by viruses and usually clear up on their own without medical treatment.
A child with strep throat will start to develop other symptoms within about 3 days, such as:
If your child has a sore throat and other strep throat symptoms, call your doctor. The doctor will likely do a rapid strep test in the office, using a cotton swab to take a sample of the fluids at the back of the throat. The test only takes about 5 minutes.
If it's positive, your child has strep throat. If it's negative, the doctor will send a sample to a lab for a throat culture. The results are usually available within a few days.
In most cases, doctors prescribe about 10 days of antibiotic medication to treat strep throat. Within about 24 hours after starting on antibiotics, your child will probably no longer have a fever and won't be contagious. By the second or third day after taking antibiotics, the other symptoms should start to go away, too. Even when feeling better, your child should finish the antibiotics as prescribed. If he or she stops taking antibiotics too soon, bacteria can remain in the throat and symptoms can return.
Sometimes a doctor might choose to treat strep throat with one antibiotic shot, without giving any medicine by mouth.
A person whose strep throat isn't treated is most infectious when the symptoms are the most severe but could remain contagious for up to 21 days. Lack of treatment — or not finishing the prescribed course of antibiotics — also can put someone at risk for other health problems, such as rheumatic fever (which can cause permanent damage to the heart), scarlet fever, blood infections, or kidney disease.
To prevent your sick child from spreading strep throat to others in your home, keep his or her eating utensils, dishes, and drinking glasses separate from others' and wash them in hot, soapy water after each use. Also, make sure your child doesn't share food, drinks, napkins, handkerchiefs, or towels with other family members.
Make sure your child covers his or her mouth and nose during a sneeze or a cough to prevent passing infectious fluid droplets to others. Also, throw out your child's toothbrush after the antibiotic treatment has been started and he or she is no longer contagious, and make sure your child uses a new one.
You can help your child feel better while battling strep throat. Provide plenty of liquids to prevent dehydration, such as water or ginger ale, especially if he or she has had a fever. Avoid orange juice, grapefruit juice, lemonade, or other acidic beverages that can irritate a sore throat. Warm liquids like soups, sweetened tea, or hot chocolate can be soothing.
As recovery progresses, talk to your doctor about when your child can return to school and other routine activities.

Then, There's The American Way To Be Crazy
by eataTREE
So I'm hoping you read the Tactician's previous post about what around here we call ADHD. You know, the original membership criteria for Editorhood Without Conviction was originally to be a) expatriation; b) moderate, or at least nuanced, political views, and c) one or more neurological conditions, but the latter was discarded in the interests of broadening the universe of potential collaborators. Nevertheless, the majority of us still qualify, with extra diagnoses to go around, even. (Perhaps we should retroactively amend the hiring policy such that the number of separate psych and/or neurological diagnoses cannot be fewer than the number of editors; sort of a Craziness Parity rule that would also be a form of affirmative action.)
So. Yeah, I'm pretty crazy. I don't particularly enjoy talking about it, but the Tactician is good for making one feel usefully uncomfortable. ADHD — the H is for hyperactivity, which I don't have, but according to the American diagnostic manual, that's "ADHD without hyperactivity" and not the infinitely more sense-making "ADD" — makes my head a pretty awful place to be. Because I don't actually need external stimuli to be distracted; they will arise from within, and they arise from within pretty much always in the form of thoughts about how much I suck; usually including but not limited to how much I suck for not making progress on the task I'm currently being distracted from by thinking about how much I suck.
If you're seeing the potential for a bit of a downward spiral there, you are to be congratulated on your perspicacity. And my tendency to ride the Spiral Waterslide of Anxiety all the way down to the Crazy Lagoon would constitute my second diagnosis, that of GAD, Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Then there's the autism. I really hate talking about it. I would rather you just assume I'm weird and an asshole than some species of mental deficient; assholes have more dignity. Suffice it to say that I have never understood why the fuck any of you wonderful people were doing whatever you were doing. To the extent that I was ever able to gauge your feelings or engage in appropriate social interaction with you, it was by carefully considering your likely motivations and goals and making an intellectual guess about what was going on in your head, and what you might be expecting from me at that moment. Long years of practice have made me adequate at this; you should have seen me when I was younger. Still, if there are more than three of you together at once, trying to keep track of everything you're all doing at once becomes total sensory overload and I find myself needing to flee the room.
There are a few, and only a few, things I can easily do to help. One is to get up quite early, which is not remotely in my nature, and start getting work done before I'm awake enough to remember that I actually hate myself. I always prioritize tasks in descending order of odiousness so that I can get the worst out of the way before distraction sets in. And I try to divide tasks into discrete, easily completed chunks, so that no task looms too large. Sometimes these methods work adequately, other times, miserably poorly.
So how do I cope with all this and still maintain my high-flying lifestyle of looting Western Civilization's twitching corpse?
Well, I'll tell you.
It's very simple.
I take speed.
No, don't be thumbing the "Report This" link at the top of the page, it's all quite legal, I can assure you. I am duly prescribed the stuff by a physician. Who, I promise, really does have my best interests in mind in so doing.
The first time I took a dose, it was though God's hand reached down and turned my metaphysical tuner dial just that extra fraction of a degree into the radio station of my soul. I know you're howling with laughter right now, but I can't describe it in terms less exotic and get across just how much of a difference it made. All of a sudden, impersonating one of you fine, normal, non-crazy people seemed a laughably easy thing! I could do it while barely thinking about it! I could… go to parties! And stay there! And not run and hide in the bathroom! And during the day, I could actually concentrate on doing work and not on why and how I've gone wrong with my life to lead me to my sad pass.
There is a downside. Speed frees the id. It tells you that what you want is right and that you should have it. In a culture where being a greedy, scheming, ambitious striver is seen as the highest good, it will make you more of one. One has less patience. One relaxes and allows emotional connections only by thinking about it. One finds one's self thinking of the bad things one could get away with.
And yet. To be normal. Successful, even. Socially well-integrated. Living outside one's invisible mobile fish tank. Of course I take the pills.

The White House has released the text of President Obama's State of the Union address, as prepared for delivery:
Mr. Speaker, Mr. Vice President, Members of Congress, distinguished guests, and fellow Americans:
Tonight I want to begin by congratulating the men and women of the 112th Congress, as well as your new Speaker, John Boehner. And as we mark this occasion, we are also mindful of the empty chair in this Chamber, and pray for the health of our colleague — and our friend — Gabby Giffords.
Originally published on Fri January 21, 2011 12:22 pm
RENEE MONTAGNE, host:
President Obama will be in upstate New York today touring a General Electric factory and showcasing that company's successes. Mr. Obama just named GE's chief executive the head of a new panel on jobs and competitiveness. GE boss Jeff Immelt has been speaking about the need to focus on manufacturing and increase the country's exports.
Here's NPR's Chris Arnold.
While the housing sector's troubles continue to drag down the U.S. economy, manufacturing is doing well, largely because of strong sales overseas.
The exports boom has helped the manufacturing sector grow at a pace three times faster than the rest of the economy. According to federal data released last week, exports rose for the third straight month in November to nearly $160 billion.
Overseas customers are buying more U.S. airplanes, pharmaceuticals, foods, industrial supplies, cotton, computers and more.
The Obama administration is talking to Congress about reopening U.S. highways to cross-border truck traffic from Mexico -- beyond a narrow strip along the border. American unionized truckers object.

Snowflake PendantWilson A. Bentley (1865-1931), also known as "Snowflake Bentley," devoted his life to showing the beauty and variety of snowflakes. A self-educated farmer from the small town of Jericho, Vermont, he pioneered "photomicrography," the photographing of very small objects, especially snow-flakes. In 1903, he donated a collection of 500 snowflake photographs to the Smithsonian to ensure their safety. He wrote that he was "deeply grateful for your kindly help in thus placing my collection of snow photographs beyond all possibility of loss and destruction, through fire or accident." Material: Pewter with silver finish and Swarovski crystals.

The Summer Set - 06.26.13
Interviewed by:
Jake Denning
The Summer Set is one of the bands that you might want to check out on Warped Tour, because once this summer's tour is done, you may never see them play the festival ever again. The band is starting to blow up, as they've released a very successful third full-length record, Legendary. I caught up with lead singer Brian Logan Dales in Portland to chat about the record and more.
You're back on Warped Tour after not doing it for a few years. What are your thoughts on returning?
Brian Logan Dales: Yeah, we're back on Warped Tour. We did the tour in 2010, and we're obviously a bigger band than when we did it last time; it feels like back then we were freshman in high school, and now we're seniors. We just put out a new record, so the timing is great, and we're excited to be here.
Who are you excited to see on this year's tour?
Brian Logan Dales: Yesterday, I watched Goldfinger, because John Feldman has always been good to our band. I've been watching William Beckett play and I sometimes sing a song with him. So far it's been about watching friends. I really want to watch Wallpaper's set, I like that stage a lot. There's a lot of stuff to check.
You have a line in one of the new songs that goes "I must confess, I'm a little obsessed with..."
Brian Logan Dales: "Dawson's Creek?"
Exactly. What else are you obsessed with?
Brian Logan Dales: (Insert Television show here), I watch a lot of TV...I like How I Met Your Mother, I've always liked that show. I'm obsessed with Mickey Mouse, as I have on my t-shirt.
Dancing With The Stars?
Brian Logan Dales: NOT Dancing With The Stars, I only watched it that one time Chelsea danced to our song on there. I'm obsessed with the state of California, now that I live there. The Detroit Red Wings, who really fucked me up this year. I'm obsessed with people who don't want the Blackhawks to win the Stanley Cup this year, anyone but them, please!
Did you watch the first game of the finals? It was like 3 minutes removed from the longest game in NHL Playoff history or something...
Brian Logan Dales: Yeah, that definitely has to count as two games!
Your new album is titled Legendary - what inspired you guys to name it that?
Brian Logan Dales: The title track of the record is kind of one of the first songs that set the tone for the rest of the record. We all had moved into a house together in Arizona, and I couldn't figure out what kind of record we wanted to make, and we didn't want to force it in any direction. We were on the road basically for three years straight, and we were pretty burnt out, possibly me more than others. We had this house warming pool party, and everyone's hanging out with friends, hanging around the pool and drinking, and it was nice being domestic again and getting back to the roots. I was laying in my bed in my room by myself while the party was going on outside, watching How I Met Your Mother re-runs, and this weird thing hit me where I was like "Holy shit, you've got to get it together!"; I picked up guitar, even though I'm terrible at it, and I wrote this quirky chorus idea about how I watch too much How I Met Your Mother and how I need to get up off my ass and do something epic. I thought it was the sillest thing but the melody was cool, and then I showed John and Steven Gomez and they were a little bit inebriated and thought it was the coolest thing ever, and we rolled with it. It turned from this silly little idea to the most auto-biographical song I've ever written, this song about not giving up on this "Peter Pan" feeling and reminding yourself that everyone has the opportunity to be legendary to someone and do what you love, and it became such a thesis to the record. I think at that point I wanted to call the album Legendary.
I think there's a fine line when you're calling an album "Legendary" between sounding pretentious and having enough confidence. I'm not a pretentious person, and I felt like it had just the right edge of confidence.
Yeah, you mention the pool party, and that's exactly what I envision when I hear this record. It's funny how that works out.
Brian Logan Dales: I think calling the album
is a reminder to myself to step it up and have that sort of confidence.
What's your favorite song off the record?
Brian Logan Dales: God, that's such a hard question, it changes every day.
How about today?
Brian Logan Dales: Today, my favorite song is "Jukebox". We played it for the first time live today and it went really well. It's hard, we wrote 55 songs for this record, and 12 made it. So I always say my favorite songs are the 12 that made it. With our past records, there's always those two songs that if you put it in front of someone new, you'd say "Oh wait, listen to these songs first, that's what we sound like" - but with Legendary, I feel like I can put it on shuffle and any song would work. We did the record with so many people, and I was worried about it sounding cohesive, and it totally feels cohesive though.
Dia Frampton made an appearance on "Heart On The Floor". What was it like working with her?
Brian Logan Dales: Dia's great, she's a good friend. We have the same manager and we're all like a little family, and she sang on our first record when she was still doing Meg and Dia. The song "Heart On The Floor" was one of the earlier songs written for the record, and it's a very different song and we ended up not doing the final verse until 9 months later. I always envisioned the song having this "choir" feel to it, and a lot of vocals, and call and response near the end. So I really needed a girl, and a friend of mine who was originally going to be on it fell through, and I needed somebody last minute, and we hit up our manager and asked Dia if she'd sing on the song, and she said "I'll do my best" because she's so modest, and she absolutely slayed it.
Was there a song that you really had a hard time writing lyrically?
Brian Logan Dales: There song that took the longest to write was "Lighting In A Bottle", but it was one of the most rewarding. We've been playing it live recently, and it's the craziest song in our set. The verses took the longest, because we wrote them four different ways, we wrote it with Emily Wright, and we spent four days working on that song at different times; we'd write half the song one day, and then come back to it three weeks later and write another half of it. It's crazy though, because songs like "Maybe Tonight" were written in a couple hours, and songs like "Someday" were written in an hour and a half.
I know some bands put something out, and then they're like "Oh man, I wish I would've done this instead", and then they re-do it later. I remember Breathe Carolina putting out a new version of "Vegas". Would you guys consider re-doing Lighting In A Bottle, since you had four different ways of writing the verses?
Brian Logan Dales: No, I'm very happy with how that song turned out. That's what's so cool about songwriting - sometimes it takes four hours, and sometimes it takes four days. But I think this song is one of the most lyric perfect songs I've ever written, I'm so proud of it. Every single word I feel great about.
You mentioned you had 55 songs written for the album. Is there a chance we might get a B-sides EP or something with some of the songs that initially didn't make the cut?
Brian Logan Dales: There are a few songs we could do a B-sides release with, or maybe a couple of acoustic versions of a few songs. I think I could take 55 and narrow it down to 20 that I was really comfortable with releasing. There's maybe 8 or 9 other songs I'd like to put out in the world, or I've gotten really into the world of songwriting, I've had so many songwriter mentor friends who really help. I remember with
Everything's Fine
, we wrote a handful of songs too, and I think some of those songs got graveyarded because I was so precious about them. There's so many songwriter friends, and I've gotten to accept the mentality that "Every song could find it's home, whether it's with me or someone else". A great song will always find it's home with somebody, and to not get too attached to the ones we didn't use maybe helps someone else, or maybe we'll use it later on down the line.
Have you written for someone lately?
Brian Logan Dales: I've been doing some outside writing, I've been doing a lot of stuff with Paradise Fears, they're putting out in like a week in which I co-wrote three of the songs. I really believe in that band, and I hope that they find their way, they released a song "Lullaby", and I think it's one of my favorite songs that I've ever written.
Has there been an immediate fan favorite off the new record, or the whole record pretty unanimously liked?
Brian Logan Dales: It's been pretty unanimous, which is great. With
Everything's Fine
there were two fan favorites very quickly, which were "Someone Like You" and "When We Were Young". And with
Love Like This
, we've seen more songs get popular later on, like "Chelsea" and "The Boys You Do" and "Young" were so immediately fan favorites. It's pretty cool to see people respond to the whole record, instead of just one or two songs. Oh, and "Boomerang" goes OFF on our set.
I think that's one of the songs that I felt was going to explode on radio, given the chance...
Brian Logan Dales: Yeah, we've been radio minded with this record especially. We've always made pop music; as far as a band, we've always been a little more pop lenient. I think there were always times during our past two records in which we thought about doing some radio stuff, I think it's hard for a band to push to radio too pre-maturity, because if it fails, you're blacklisted. So we'd always think about it...and then pump the brakes and make a new record. Now, it's our third record and our fan base is stronger than ever, and we have a great new team with Fearless, and it's the best chance we've had so far to even try. When we started making the record we never thought "Radio, radio, radio!", we had the mindset of "Let's make a record, and if a song happens that is so perfect for radio, we'll talk about it then", and then Boomerang happened in the final hour, and then we decided "Yeah, we're gonna do this".
I think one of the catalysts for you guys moving towards radio is you guys recently winning the opening slot on the iHeartRadio festival. I mean, last year Justin Bieber, Green Day, and more headlined that festival.
Brian Logan Dales: Yeah, last year was like Bieber, Green Day, Taylor Swift, Aerosmith...
So everyone that's on the radio is THERE, so it only makes sense for you guys now...
Brian Logan Dales: Yeah, it's a newer festival and it's very shortly become one of the biggest radio festivals in the U.S., which is incredible. It's really cool because iHeart Radio supports about half of the Top 40 stations in the nation, so winning this contest gets our foot in the door with anyone that's partnered with them. So winning is a wonderful surprise, because it's hard for a band on an indie label to go to a radio station with a backstory of "Indie band that's touring all the time". So winning this Macy's iHeartRadio contest gives us a bit of a different story than what we've had before. I'm so proud of where we come from, from this Warped Tour scene, is that we've already played a few of those radio shows - we recently played a show with Carly Rae Jepsen and those shows are so different, but they're so much fun because in this Warped tour world you have to bring a certain level of energy to fit in...I mean, we just played in between two heavier bands today (Stick To Your Guns and Woe, Is Me). Growing up in the scene, you have to have a certain level of energy in order for people to respect you. But with the pop radio shows, the energy is so different but we go up and play those same shows, and those 30 minute opening slots for Carly Rae Jepsen are explosive. Playing Warped really helped us stand out with those types of shows.
What was it like playing the Tilly's stage yesterday and then the Main Stage today? I know Woe, Is Me had a HUGE crowd today, and they normally don't.
Brian Logan Dales: It's tricky, most of the shows on the Tilly's stage are held in the amphitheater. Today I knew it wasn't going to be like that, and it's cool because I like playing the amphitheaters, but I definitely hope we get to do the main stage a few more times, it was awesome.
Fall Tour plans?
Brian Logan Dales: We're going to do something in the U.S. in the fall, but we have literally no idea what we're doing. I'd love to sneak in a few shows in the U.K. before the end of the year, because they've been really good to us lately
If you could pick any three bands to tour with right now, who would they be and why?
Brian Logan Dales: Right now, with us trying to bridge the gap between the world of Warped Tour and the world of radio, I would love to go on tour with a band like Fun., or like One Republic, something a little different. We've toured with every band right now that fits. It's all based around this iHeartRadio festival.
Anything else you'd like to add?
Brian Logan Dales: Our new record
is out now and Warped Tour just started, so check us out in a city near you.

Substance Abuse and Addiction Health Center
Barbiturate Abuse
When to Seek Medical Care
The doctor cannot give appropriate treatment for barbiturate abuse over the telephone. Observation at a hospital emergency department is necessary.
If you believe someone has taken barbiturates inappropriately, take him or her to a hospital emergency department for evaluation by a doctor. Soon after taking barbiturates, a person may only be drowsy or seem intoxicated, but more serious symptoms can develop quickly and unpredictably.
- If the person is drowsy or you are unable to arouse the person (if he or she seems to be in a coma), call 911 for emergency medical transport and immediate treatment in the ambulance.
- Bring any leftover pills, pill bottles, or other medicines the person may have taken to the hospital with you.
Exams and Tests
A urine test can readily identify barbiturate use. Diagnosis in a hospital emergency department, however, concentrates on diagnosing other potential reasons for the person to be drowsy, such as other drugs taken, head injury, stroke, infection, or shock. These diagnostic efforts take place while the person is being treated.
In general, the person will have an IV started and blood will be drawn. An ECG (electrocardiogram) will be performed to evaluate the person's heart. Other diagnostic efforts depend on the specific situation.
Barbiturate Abuse Treatment - Self-Care at Home
There is no home treatment for barbiturate abuse. If you believe someone has taken barbiturates inappropriately, take him or her to the hospital for evaluation by a doctor.
- Barbiturates have a narrow therapeutic index and can cause coma or death if taken inappropriately. This is especially true in children and in elderly persons.
- Because children are smaller and weigh less than adults, even small doses of barbiturates could be life threatening.
- Elderly people can be more sensitive to barbiturates and develop a coma with small doses.
- Because children are smaller and weigh less than adults, even small doses of barbiturates could be life threatening.
Medical Treatment
The treatment of barbiturate abuse or overdose is generally supportive. The amount of support required depends on the person's symptoms.
- If the person is drowsy but awake and can swallow and breathe without difficulty, the treatment may consist of just watching the person closely.
- If the person is not breathing, a breathing machine is used to ensure the person can breathe well until the drugs have worn off.
- Most people receive a liquid form of activated charcoal to bind to any drugs in their stomach. This may be done by placing a tube into the stomach (through the nose or mouth) or by having the person drink it.
- Most people are admitted to the hospital or are observed in the emergency department for a number of hours. Other treatments depend on the specific situation.
Next Steps - Follow-up
Although rare, anyone who is addicted to barbiturates requires prolonged therapy to avoid the dangerous symptoms of withdrawal. Addicted individuals are treated with decreasing doses of barbiturates (called detoxification) until they are drug free. For more information, see drug dependence and abuse.

I stopped by for dinner last night. I sat down at the bar and asked for a glass of soda-water while I perused the menu and was told - "that'll be $2.95 OK?"... Really?! I hadn't been in the restaurant 5 minutes before the penny-pinching began. Give me a break - I'm a business traveler who lives on the road and takes good care of establishments that take good care of me. Short-Story: Outback Dublin got my $3.00 for soda water (congratulations), but they lost out on any bar-bill profit and any follow on business... Penny wise and dollar foolish. Not going back. You're free to run your restaurant any way you see fit - I vote with my feet and my money. $3.00 for water... Good luck with that.
Outback Steakhouse Dublin is the best! – I had a surprise birthday party last Friday at Outback Steakhouse Dublin. We all had an amazing time. Everything was excellent! We were blown away by the service, steaks, seafood, chicken, ribs, desserts and cocktails. Both presentation and taste were superb. We dine in the Patio and brought a band to play live music. Enrique - owner and Seth - Manager are simply the best. They make every event splendid and train the employees to give exceptional service every time.
Thanks for making Jim's Birthday Party a great one.

Besides more than a half-dozen cuts of steak, diners can pick from large-portioned entrees like ribs, chops and shrimp or chicken "on the barbie." The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.
