The Internal Revenue Service deferred the beginning of tax-filing season until 50 of its data processing systems are programmed, tested and deployed -- a delay IRS officials attributed to the government shutdown. A key House Republican, however, wants to know whether the change is really related to the rollout of HealthCare.gov.
The IRS said on Oct. 22 that it had to postpone the beginning of the tax-filing season by a week or two because the 16-day shutdown came at one of busiest times of the year for its IT managers, who must make sure systems are ready for the huge volume of tax filings.
But Rep. Dave Camp (R-Mich.) fired off a letter to Acting IRS Commissioner Danny Werfel on Oct. 24 questioning the agency's decision to delay and accusing the agency of "putting a higher priority on implementing ObamaCare than tending to its core mission" of processing tax returns.
Camp, who chairs the House Ways and Means Committee, said President Barack Obama had signed into law significant changes to the tax code last January, which the agency coped with in only a week. "It strains credulity to believe that today, with absolutely no changes to the tax law — 13 weeks away from the originally scheduled date — the IRS can't make up 12 work days," Camp said. "This determination raises serious questions about how the IRS actually allocated its resources during the shutdown."
The IRS said in a statement to FCW that it had received and is reviewing Camp's letter, while stressing that the challenges posed by the shutdown were different from those presented by changes in the tax code.
"The current one- to two-week delay is much different than delays in prior years caused by legislation enacted late in the year, such as the AMT patch," the IRS statement reads. "With late tax law changes, the vast majority of core programming and systems work had been completed in the months leading up to the legislation being passed in December or later. The government shutdown delay in early October coincided with a crucial period for building our new systems for the filing season starting in 2014."
Camp, however, contends that the IRS had designated 77 IT professionals as essential before the shutdown so they could remain on the job to continue work on the health insurance exchange website, which went live Oct. 1. The congressman also noted that the IRS shutdown contingency plan said "key IT specialists" were needed to "triage any issues that arise in the initial weeks of deployment, as well as operate a continuously operating control room during the period." Camp said four non-IT employees in the Affordable Care Act Office were also deemed "excepted" in the IRS shutdown plan.
"The IRS needs to explain why implementing the president's health care law is more important than processing tax returns in a timely manner," Camp's letter states.
The original start date for the 2014 season had been Jan. 21, Werfel said in a statement. With the delay, the IRS would start accepting and processing 2013 individual tax returns no earlier than Jan. 28. A final decision on the start date is expected in December. The April 15 deadline for individuals to file tax returns remains in place.
"The government closure came during the peak period for preparing ITS systems for the 2014 filing season," the agency said in a statement. "Programming, testing and deployment of more than 50 IRS systems is needed to handle processing of nearly 150 million tax returns. Updating these core systems is a complex, year-round process with the majority of work beginning in the fall of each year."
An IRS spokesman declined to identify which systems were being updated, saying the information was sensitive.
The agency said about 90 percent of its employees were sent home during the 16-day shutdown, and some major work streams were closed completely. Officials said additional training, programming and testing demands are being made on IRS systems this year with the aim of enhancing capabilities related to detecting and preventing refund fraud and identity theft.

Easy question to answer, because Obama needs the taxes/income from the AHA (AKA Obamacare) in order to make it appear to work.

Pop quiz… What do comedy routines and IRA planning have in common? Give up? The answer is "timing is everything!" Unfortunately though, the tax code isn't exactly friendly when it comes to timing issues. Advisors must be aware of all sorts of different dates, ages and "clocks."
Age 59 ½ Exception to the 10% Early Distribution Penalty
In general, IRA owners must wait until they are 59 ½ to withdraw IRA funds without a penalty. The age 59 ½ rule is based on a client's actual age. A person is considered to be 59 ½ on the same numbered day of the month (when possible) six months after they turn 59. For instance, someone born on March 5th will turn 59 ½ on September 5th, regardless of the actual number of days between the two dates.
Age 55 Exception to the 10% Early Distribution Penalty (Plans Only)
Unlike the age 59 ½ exception to the 10% penalty, the age 55 exception applies to distributions from company plans when the plan participant separates from service in the year they turn 55 or older. For the purpose of this rule, the applicable year is a calendar year and not 365 days. Remember though; the age 55 exception only applies to distributions made from plans and NOT from IRAs (including SEP and SIMPLE IRAS.
Age 70 ½ Rule for IRA RMDs
Required minimum distributions (RMDs) must begin for the calendar year in which an individual turns 70 ½. This is true even if the IRA owner is still working, as there is no "still working" exception for IRAs, including SEP and SIMPLE IRAs. What makes this rule a little tricky is that even though distributions must begin for a specific calendar year, it's possible for a client to take their first distribution in either of two calendar years to satisfy the requirement. That's sounds a little crazy, but here's how it works…
A distribution taken in the calendar year in which a client turns 70 ½ will count towards fulfilling the client's first RMD requirement, even if the client is not yet 70 ½. However, a special rule allows clients to defer taking their first RMD until April 1st of the calendar year after the year in which they turn 70 ½. This is known as the required beginning date (RBD). A distribution taken in the calendar year after a client turns 70 ½, but by no later than April 1st, will still satisfy the first year's RMD requirement without triggering any penalties.
Age 70 ½ Rule for QCDs
Qualified charitable distributions (QCDs) are direct transfers to charitable organizations from an individual's IRA or inherited IRA. Using this provision, eligible clients are able to exclude the amount transferred, up to $100,000, from AGI. The transfer can also be used to help satisfy a client's RMD.
As of this writing, QCDs are not currently in effect, but each time it's expired in the past, it has been brought back (sometimes retroactively) with the same age 70 ½ rule.
Under this rule, the only individuals able to make QCDs are IRA owners and IRA beneficiaries who are actually age 70 ½ or older at the time the QCD is made. Direct transfers to charity made in the year an IRA owner or IRA beneficiary turns 70 ½, but before the individual actually turns 70 ½, do not qualify for QCD status. Instead, the income from the distribution must be added to AGI and a charitable deduction may be taken as an itemized deduction.
5-Year Rule for Roth IRA Conversions
When it comes to the taxation of Roth IRA distributions, many advisors and clients struggle to figure out just what is taxable and/or subject to a penalty. And given the fact that there are actually two separate Roth IRA five-year rules, it's not too difficult to understand why. One five-year rule applies only to Roth IRA conversions. Under this five-year rule, penalty-free distributions of Roth conversions may be made at the client's actual attainment of age 59 ½ OR after five full years, whichever is sooner. A separate five-year period is established for each of a client's conversions.
The wrinkle that throws many advisors off is that the five-year clock begins to tick on January 1st of the year the funds are deposited in the Roth IRA. As a result, even though a separate five-year period applies to each Roth conversion, multiple conversions made in the same calendar year have a common clock.
5-Year Rule for Roth IRA Qualified Distributions
Roth IRA qualified distributions are the name of the game. In a qualified distribution, every dollar that comes out of the Roth IRA is tax-free and penalty-free. Qualified distribution are distributions made five full years after a client establishes their first Roth IRA AND the client's attainment of age 59 ½, their death, disability or the first-time purchase of a home ($10,000 lifetime cap).
Here again, attainment of age 59 ½ is the client's actual age 59 ½, but the client must also complete the five-year requirement. Remember, this five-year rule is a different five-year rule than the rule for conversions. One difference is that the five-year clock for qualified distributions can, in some cases, begin to tick on January 1st of the year before the first dollars are actually contributed to a Roth IRA.
How? A contribution to a Roth IRA will start the Roth qualified distribution clock ticking on January 1st of the year the contribution is made for, which is not necessarily the year the contribution is made in (since Roth contributions can be made up until April 15th of the year after the calendar year it is being made for). Another important point is that the five-year rule for qualified distributions is common for all Roth IRAs (separate clocks are not needed).
5-Year Rule for 72(t) Payments
72(t) payments, also known as SEPPs or SOSEPPs (a series of substantially equal periodic payments), are distributions from an IRA that allow the owner to access money penalty free. 72(t) schedules can be doubly confusing since there are two separate timeframes to keep track of. In order to successfully "complete" a 72(t) payment schedule and avoid back penalties and interest, the schedule must continue for the longer of five years or until a client reaches 59 ½.

FAA finally issues its small drone rule
Drones can begin flying low over the American skyscape by 2017 under rules proposed Sunday by the Obama administration that will finally allow their legal use for business purposes.
The rules, which still need to go through an extensive public comment phase, apply to smaller drones weighing 55 pounds or less. Such small flyers aren't likely to share airspace with manned flights.
Unrelenting winter storms blast New England again
Snow and dangerously high winds roared into New England for the fourth time in less than a month Sunday, threatening to deliver life-threatening blizzards, hurricane-force winds, whiteouts and widespread power outages.
The storm is the latest blow to a region that has already seen more than 6 feet of snow in some areas.
A blizzard warning was in effect for coastal areas from Connecticut to Maine through Monday morning, promising 8 to 14 inches in southern New England and up to 2 feet in Maine.
Schools start treating e-cigarettes as drug paraphernalia
Some schools are getting tougher on e-cigarettes, even punishing possession of the devices more harshly than regular cigarettes.
The devices, which heat a nicotine solution to create a vapor instead of burning tobacco, have passed traditional smokes in popularity among teenagers. Schools are clamping down because e-cigarettes, sometimes also known as vaporizers, can also be used for illegal substances like marijuana.
West Coast ports partially shut down amid labor dispute
The 29 ports on the U.S. West Coast were effectively closed to cargo ships for the second time in less than a week on Thursday under a partial shutdown imposed by shipping lines and terminal operators in an escalating labor dispute with the dockworkers' union.
The loading and unloading of cargo vessels was halted for 24 hours starting Thursday morning, and the companies said those operations will be suspended — as they were last weekend — this coming Saturday, Sunday and Monday, unless a contract settlement with the union is reached.
Judge Halts TransCanada's Use Of Eminent Domain On Nebraskans For Keystone Pipeline
A Nebraska district judge has halted TransCanada's attempts to use eminent domain to force landowners to turn over their land for the construction of the Keystone XL pipeline, an act that anti-Keystone activists are calling a major win.
Nebraska State District Court Judge Mark Kozisek issued a temporary injunction against TransCanada on Thursday after a hearing during which nearly 70 landowners called on the judge to grant the injunction. The injunction will remain in place until Nebraska's Supreme Court takes up the landowners' case against state law LB1161, which gave TransCanada the right to use eminent domain against the landowners.

I would like to do some customization of the UIPickerView.
End Goal: have a picker view rotating a few icon sized images.
firstly i would like to change the black/grey boarder surrounding the spindle to a transparent colour. i.e. [UIColor clearColor];
Then shrink the picker view down so it is relatively small, (probably around 40 x 40 pixels) Experimenting with this is IB did not make it seem easy.
Finally change the view returned to the picker for each section. This i think is easy with
The rest, not sure if it is possible or if i am going to have to delve into some of the core animation/graphics (or find a different way to do what i want).

Furthermore, at a chosen battery level phone can be automatically switched to Flight Mode, making you chances of running out of battery even lower. (This feature is available on Android 4.1 and earlier.)
*Power-saving experiments were conducted on Galaxy S3.
If you phone's coverage is unstable you'll be able to save even more battery power!

Dual Battery Widget
IMPORTANT! It is possible that the widget will not immediately appear in the widget list after installation. To refresh the widget list, you should either restart your device (long press the power button and shut down, the start again), or restart the launcher app (Settings -> Applications -> Manage applications -> All -> Launcher -> Force stop).
Do this after installing the widget, then go to your home screen, tap the "+" in the top right corner of your screen, go to the widgets tab, and scroll to the right. You will find the widget there.
This is a Battery Widget that displays the status for the internal battery, and the secondary battery in your dock station. It is mostly intended for the Asus Eee Pad Transformer tablet (which is the only device that currently reports the dock battery life). All other devices will only show the main battery icon.
The widget is resizable, and can be as little as 1 cell on your screen, or fill your whole home screen! Advanced options allow you to change the size and the position of the status text, and hide the second battery gauge when it is disconnected.
It will also store the battery history and display the stored values in a chart for later review.
Any feedback is welcomed!
If you have a device that has access to a secondary battery, but this widget does not identify it, drop me an e-mail with the device model, so that I can add support for it.

Privacy Advisor
You'd be amazed at what some apps can do behind your back! Some can peek into your private data and share it on the Web. Others can access the Internet without your knowledge and download unwanted data to your Android. Privacy Advisor helps you keep an eye on installed apps and shows you which ones abuse your privacy.
NEW! App Lock
Ever leave your phone laying around, unlocked, only to discover a friend hijacked your Facebook account with a silly status? Imagine if this wasn't done by a friend. Imagine if it was your bank account or stocks app, personal pictures, or any other app containing your sensitive/personal info that was accessed without your knowledge. App Lock lists all the apps installed on your phone, and allows you to easily pick and choose which ones you'd like to setup passcodes for… so the only one that opens them up is you!
Web Security

It even allows you to listen in on your phone, send out SMS Commands, and alerts you if the SIM card has been changed .
Clueful Privacy Advisor
You'd be surprised how many things an app can learn about you. Without you ever knowing it.
Clueful is like your own personal "Privacy Consultant" giving you detailed info as to what your installed apps are doing in the background without your knowledge. It checks your apps against Bitdefender's constantly updated Cloud database, calculates your device's "Privacy Score", and then informs you as to which apps are sacrificing your privacy.
Benefit from Clueful's extended database of verified apps. Curious to find out more about an app? Look for it using Clueful's newest Search feature. Now you are able to check whether an app does more than it says in the background before installing it. If we've already scanned the app we will display a list of clues from the Cloud allowing you to make informed decisions when it comes to the apps you're downloading.
Did you know that apps can:
- Leak your phone number, e-mail address, contacts from address book to aggressive ad networks or third-parties
- Play audio ads while you're on the phone
- Spam you in the notification bar, even if not accessed
- Send your password unencrypted over the Internet, a password that can be easily intercepted
- Upload your calendar
- Read your browsing history, which contains sensitive data
- Read and send SMS with or without your permission, thus incurring charges to your bill
- Intercept SMS
- Make phone calls with or without asking for your permission
- Monitor your phone calls
- Upload your device ID. (This unique ID can be used by developers, advertisers and analytics tools to track your location or behaviour across more than one app)
- Track your location and share it with third-parties
- Access your photos
…and many more. Really know your apps with Clueful!
Clueful doesn't only display a list of permissions requested by apps upon install, it goes even further by showing you what apps REALLY do behind your back: leaking your phone number, spamming your notification bar, playing audio ads while on the phone, sending your password unencrypted over the Internet, or even send text messages without asking for your permission!
Bitdefender Clueful monitors apps that you install from the Google Play Store and immediately tells you if they're not respecting your privacy.
Bitdefender Clueful examines the apps on your smartphone and calculates a precise and personal overview of how vulnerable you are, so that you can evaluate and take appropriate actions for each installed app.
Clueful utilizes the Bitdefender Cloud to access the very latest information from a growing database comprised of hundreds of thousands of apps that is updated 24/7.

Bitdefender Carrier IQ Finder
Earlier this week, independent developers identified a software package from Carrier IQ shipped within a number of Android-based mobile devices. This piece of software was apparently designed to provide metrics to help mobile carriers improve their services, but in some circumstances, the software is not optional and in many cases the users don't know it's there, tracking all interactions with their mobile phone.
Designed to help mobile carriers solve customer-support and infrastructure issues, the application has been discovered to systematically syphon out location data, keystrokes and other aspects of e-mail and SMS conversations.
As Bitdefender values users' privacy and the right to informed consent, we have developed Bitdefender Carrier IQ, a low-footprint detector that can reveal the presence of the Carrier IQ package on the personal device and, if found, whether it has been enabled by the carrier.
The Bitdefender Carrier IQ finder is merely a diagnostic tool that prompts the user about the presence or absence of the Carrier IQ package. The package is deeply buried in the device firmware, so it can be uninstalled only through special privileges on the smartphone.
Please note that the Bitdefender Carrier IQ finder does not substitute for a mobile antivirus and consequently, will not detect malware. For a fully featured security solution, please install Bitdefender Mobile Security (available on Android Market).
Bitdefender USSD Wipe Stopper
The operating system your smartphone is running may be vulnerable to USSD commands that could wipe your entire phone.
Tapping on a link to a cleverly coded web page could order you phone to reset itself to factory settings and disintegrate all your private data with it.
Any Android phone running Phone.apk v 4.1 or lower is at risk and that's the broader base of them. Install Bitdefender's USSD Wipe Stopper to protect against such attacks. Now, once you would tap on a exploiting link, Bitdefender will intercept the wipe command and ask you to decide what to do next. You may, if unsure, dismiss the USSD command.
Find out more about this security vulnerability at http://www.hotforsecurity.com/blog/bitdefender-wipe-stopper-prevents-remote-ussd-attack-on-androids-3657.html

If you are insolvent, you may not need to file a bankruptcy owing to tax implications. You frequently can avoid forgiveness of debt income if you are insolvent by filing appropriate tax forms. Of course, bankruptcy results in no "FOD" income at all.

You can't be jailed for not paying a debt. But you could be put in jail, at least in Illinois, if you fail to respond to a citation to discover assets after judgment. In that case, you could be held in contempt of court and put in jail until you post bond or otherwise purge yourself of the contempt.

Theoretically, a bankruptcy trustee could close your business and try to sell it. Your tools are at risk unless they can be claimed as exempt,. There are rather generous exemptions in California. You'd have to work out a deal with your landlord for renting your place of busienss. If your business has no value without you, I can't imagine a trustee liquidating it. Be sure to protect your business assets with exemptions to the fullest extent possible.

It is extremely important to list any potential claim, even if you don't know what it's worth. Yes, use whatever exemptions to which you are entitled. If you don't know the amount, that's OK. But if you fail to list the claim, the defense may argue that you are legally prevented ("estopped") from raising the claim subsequent to your bankruptcy.

The LLC may well want to acquire...

You can file legally a mechanic's lien as an authorized agent for a claimaint. You cannot file a complaint to enforce a mechanic's lien unless you are an attorney. A mechanic's lien in Illinois is highly technical. Perfect compliance is necessary. So even though you are not an attorney, you are held to the standards of the law in doing so. Accordingly, I would be very sure that I understood all aspects of Illinois mechanics' lien law before acting as agent for anyone.

You asked several questions. But the most important one is the statute of limitations for credit cards. There is contention about this. But it could be as little as 4 years or 5 years. Credit card companies assert 10 years but the courts typically won't accept that. Negative credit reporting information may stay on your credit report for 7 years and an additional 180 days in the case of a charge-off.

World War II veterans dedicate new war memorial
Red Wing resident Alex Huppert was injured during combat in Germany eight days before World War II ended. Huppert received a concussion and a flight to a hospital in France. Later he was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star.
"I wasn't a hero," Huppert said, "I did what I had to do."
Huppert said when he returned from the war it took him a
while to adjust and he didn't receive the response from civilians
that he had expected he would.

I was a bit anxious when I ordered this that it would look too stumpy. As it turns out, it looks way more elegant and slender in real life and the chrome has a lovely luster. The flow from this spout is even and powerful. It does the job and looks great doing it. Highly recommended.

Anyone grow S. concinnus?

Anyone grows the spoon-leaf sansevieria?
Just recently acquired one in trade for a sharp tipped spear species.

'Gray' Has Random House Employees Seeing Green
By editor
Good morning. I'm Renee Montagne. The publishing industry isn't doing too hot, except Random House, where things got downright steamy this year after it published "Fifty Shades of Grey." That bestselling tale of kinky passion has sold over 60 million copies, which is why Random House employees are now seeing green. The big announcement at the publisher's Christmas party: a $5,000 bonus for every employee, from editors to the mailroom. It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

Forum hails decision to increase the amount, but says it is inadequate
Compensation for banana, sugarcane should be hiked List of beneficiaries should be displayed in villages
NAGAPATTINAM: Farmers in the Cauvery delta region have urged Chief Minister Jayalalithaa to give more compensation to farmers for the loss of crops in the recent heavy rain and floods.
Arupathy Kalyanam, general secretary, Federation of Farmers Associations in Thanjavur, Tiruvarur and Nagapattinam districts, said on Saturday that the federation hailed the Chief Minister's announcement on increasing the compensation to Rs.7, 500 a hectare of paddy (Rs.3, 000 an acre) from the Central Calamity Relief norms of Rs.2, 500 per hectare. However, the amount was inadequate, as the farmers had spent Rs.20,000 a hectare (Rs.8,000 an acre) for raising the crop.
Mr. Kalyanam said the compensation for banana, coconut, sugarcane should also be increased. The federation had demanded Rs.20, 000 a hectare for paddy. The list of beneficiaries should be displayed in villages and put on the Government's web site.
"No provision"
K.G. Krishnamoorthy, vice-president, composite Thanjavur District Farmers Association, said the Government should have announced 50 per cent of the amount recommended to the Centre as compensation.
No provision was made in the interim budget for the compensation and waiver of interest on farm loans. There was no mention of allocation for desilting irrigation channels
