Women's USA Half Marathon: Duluth native Kara Goucher wins with course record (with video)
Duluth native Kara Goucher, who will run the marathon at this year's Summer Olympics in London, won the USA Half Marathon Championships women's race today, setting a course record in 1 hour, 9 minutes and 46 seconds.By: Rick Weegman, Duluth News Tribune
Near the finish line, a fist-pumping Kara Goucher finally was able to show what returning to Duluth meant to her.
Goucher, who will run the marathon at this year's Summer Olympics in London, won the USA Half Marathon Championships women's race today, setting a course record in 1 hour, 9 minutes and 46 seconds.
"I had to try and shut my emotions down during the race because I was trying to get something out of this race and prepare for London," the 1997 Duluth East graduate said. "But there were times that people were telling me very personal things like 'You ran the (4x400 relay) with my daughter.' It's hard to tune that out.
"When I came down Superior Street with two miles to go, I literally had goose bumps because people were cheering so loud. Every elite athlete dreams big dreams when they are growing up, and for me to come here on my way to the Olympics, I couldn't have asked for anything more."
Goucher, runner-up Maegan Krifchin and Lindsey Scherf ran the first five kilometers together before Goucher eventually pulled away to win by 70 seconds and break Colleen De Reuck's course-record time by 14 seconds.
For Goucher, who resides in Portland, Ore., with her husband, Adam, and son, Colt, it was a good step on her way to the Olympics later this summer. Upon changing coaches from Alberto Salazar to Jerry Schumacher of the Oregon Track Club, Goucher said, that unlike training partner and fellow Olympian Shalane Flanagan, she never finished one of Schumacher's workouts leading up to the U.S. Olympic Trials.
"Shalane always went at least a mile, if not 11, 12 or 13 miles further than me," Goucher said. "But I do every single step with her now. I went through a very weird period last summer — I had my son, I wasn't sure what I wanted anymore, I was injured and I knew I wanted to change but didn't know if that meant not running anymore. By the time I found a new coach, I had let myself go a little bit as far as an elite athlete goes. I had put myself in that position and was holding myself accountable. I've been healthy since then and now am on a level playing field with everyone."
Goucher, whose best marathon time is 2:24:52 at the 2011 Boston Marathon, is hoping for a time in the low 2:20s in London.
"I feel like I'm a different athlete now," she said. "I'm not confident that I could break 2:20, but with help — and in a marathon there would be a lot of help — I feel like low 2:20s is realistic."
On Saturday, her main help was an adoring crowd.
"It was tough because everyone on the road was cheering for Kara and I don't think anyone knew who I was," said Krifchin, who set a personal-best time of 1:10:56. "As I was running by, the crowd was going wild and crazy for Kara. And that's great because it's her hometown and I respect that, but it's hard to hear that.
"But even though they were cheering for her, hearing the emotion and joy from the crowd helped me, too, and pumped me up. Whether it was my name or Kara's, it was getting me motivated."
It's a long time removed from when Goucher used to hand out water to runners on London Road, and wonder why anyone would ever run 26.2 miles.
"I never thought I'd run the marathon; I thought it was crazy," she said. "A lot of my friends would run the half marathon, which was just starting, and I thought they were crazy."
Goucher described the weekend as the high school reunion she never had, having missed an actual East reunion due to running another race, and she is forever appreciative of the support she receives from her hometown.
"This community has embraced me forever — since I started running when I was 12, almost 22 years ago — and they've been there for me through it all," she said. "For me to come back and do this, it's the best way I can thank them."

Endless fit options - feminine results. Rocket raises the bar in fit and comfort yet again with the Atomic 4.0. Thanks to the endless options of our exclusive SureFit™ multi-point adjustment system, you get the look you want while keeping your important armor in place when you need it most!
Please measure the circumference of your chest using a cloth tape measure and add 1" if the measurement is an odd number to get to the next even number and choose your size from the chart below. Please note all measurements are in inches.
Comment: The materials and fit are great!!! Waterproof makes it the perfect choice!!
Comment: Great fit, great look. Feminine without being 'too girly'. The vents are really good for the hot summer days.
Corona, CA
Comment: I've really enjoyed my jacket- have used it for over 2 months. Love the cut and fit. I'm in Diva 1 size and hard to find something that fits that well and looks so cool. I feel a lot safer rollin' now too. Wish there was a color option with red.
Oregon coast
Comment: I looked for a while to find an all- weather/season jacket that matched my pink helmet without being ridiculously girly. I'm now hooked on Joe Rocket! The adjustable straps make for a great fit, especially when I take out the liner. The fit is a little bulky, but any armor jacket well be. The armor is easy to remove but I leave mine in. The liner provides a suprising amount of warmth, allowing the riding from cold Arizona mornings to the hot days. I ride in the low 50s on the highway for hours with no problem. This morning it was 44 and I didn't have a problem zipping through town to work. I stay completely dry in heavy rain. I can't think of anything bad to say except the pink shoulder stripe is getting dirty but that's just from all time I spend riding with this jacket.

Wildlife students partner with natural resource agencies to develop conservation policy skills
A University of Idaho Service Learning Grant provided funding for wildlife students to conduct a conservation project on Ten Mile Creek Ranch near Lewiston. The students worked with the Palouse Land Trust, Idaho Fish and Game and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service on a conservation easement to protect 28 species of wintering birds and other vulnerable plant and animal species on the 2,800-acre ranch owned by Rick Rupp and Bill Mathews.
"Working with local land owners on this project gives students real-world opportunities to collaborate with state agencies and federal agencies, practice presentation skills and conduct research that that could be used to improve management," said Lisette Waits, associate professor and instructor.
Wildife students practiced investigative science and developed important conservation policy recommendations by
- conducting bird counts
- evaluating bighorn sheep habitat use
- assessing the abundance of spawning salmon
Students also developed long-term monitoring protocols for birds, natural springs and vegetation on the property. Additionally, three CNR students in Lee Vierling's remote sensing class developed a vegetation map for the property as a class project.
Final reports were given to Rupp and Mathews to help guide future management and habitat monitoring for the area. Additionally, three students will continue to develop their projects into senior theses over the next couple of years.
By participating in hands-on learning experiences, wildlife students are well prepared for careers in:
- State and federal agencies
- Consulting firms
- Natural resources and non-profit organizations
"Ten Mile Creek Ranch was extremely pleased to have University of Idaho students use our property to advance the study of natural resources. Our working relationship has been easy and rewarding - a true winning relationship," said Rupp. "We will use what we learn from their projects to make the property, which has home owners living on it, a better natural habitat. We hope more property owners might consider doing a similar experience."

Listen live to Atlanta's breaking news, severe weather, & traffic online
Hi, (not you?) | Member Center | Sign Out
Posted: 8:39 a.m. Thursday, Oct. 11, 2012
By Neal Boortz
Good morning! Actually feeling human today …. So let's get started:
A quote for you to muse over today .. one from Joe Biden. I found it on a Tweet from @JamesPethokoukis from the American Enterprise Institute … and upon stealing his material, I started writing. Now think about this when Biden is on the stage with GOP vice-presidential candidate Paul Ryan tonight. This I something that Biden said in 2008:
"For too long in this society we have celebrated
unrestrained individualism over the common community."
Before we move ahead with this, I just must point out to you that this "common community" phrase is the core idea behind the word "communism." No … I'm not one who screams communist at everyone with a (D) after their name, but I do recognize that the philosophy exists and I have a rather good understanding of the underpinnings of Lenin and Marx. One thing is clear … communism cannot co-exist with a society that values the individual.
Now … since I have now presented you with a quote from Joe Biden, let's try a few more quotes. See if you can figure out who uttered these lovely phrases. This will mean a lot more to those of you who actually value your worth as an individual rather than as merely another cog in the gears of society:
Quote 1. "We must abolish the cult of the individual decisively, once and for all."
Quote 2. "We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what's best for society."
Any guesses? The surprise comes later. You need to hold on a few more moments while we discuss the war against individuality.
Yes, a war – a war against the individual. A war that has been waged by the American left for decades.
Why, you might ask, would anyone want to fight the concept of individuality? Good question. Simple answer. Individualism must be fought and suppressed because the concept of the individual is completely incompatible with basic liberal doctrine.
Here's the rub. If you recognize the existence of the individual, it then follows that you must also recognize the concept of individual rights. Among those individual rights are such pesky little nuances as – dare we say it – property rights! Among those property rights would be what our founding fathers might call the right to the fruit of your labors, or what we in our less flowery age would call the money you earn by busting your buns 60 hours a week.
If, then, there is any recognition that you, as a real flesh and blood individual human being, have any right to the money you work for, what sort of excuse can the left come up with to seize those earnings for their wonderful vote-buying income redistribution schemes?
So, you think I'm going a bit overboard here? Well, while you sit down and grip the arms of your chair for stability, let me tell you that a California congresswoman (Democrat, natch!) said back in the early 2000s that all wages really belong to the federal government. How's that for individual property rights?
Not convinced? You still don't believe that there's a full-blown war on individuality raging around you? Well then, allow me to invoke the name of one of Washington's premier class warlords, none other than the Senate's Prince of Bloviation, the late Ted Kennedy. The unlikely event that brought forth this Kennedy gem was the New England Patriots' Super Bowl win in (I think) 2002. Naturally, Kennedy wanted a part in the celebration, so he pushed his way to the television cameras to extol the value of teamwork. Amazingly, Kennedy tells the nation that the Patriots set a wonderful example for us all to follow at a time when we, in America, are engaged in a "war against the individual." His words, not mine. Go plow through The Boston Globe on the Monday following that Super Bowl win to find out for yourself. Do it! You need the research practice.
Driving the point home just a bit more, what do you think this whole "diversity" thing is all about? Diversity committees – diversity seminars – diversity directors. What's behind this love of "diversity"? Why was the University of Texas (liberal institution, in case you didn't know) pushing "diversity" as an excuse for racial discrimination in student admissions? Easy enough. Diversity identity is group identity. Attention paid to diversity is attention paid to someone's group status, not his or her individual identity. When you are identified according to group status, any claim to individual rights, or worth, for that matter, fade into meaninglessness.
Let's go back through history to see, other than Teddy Kennedy, just who we have out there blasting the concept of the individual. It's a rough ride. Hold on.
"There is the great, silent, continuous struggle: the struggle between the State and the Individual; between the State, which demands, and the individual, who attempts to evade such demands."
That gem is from our friend, Italian dictator Benito Mussolini.
"The main plank in the National Socialist program is to abolish the liberalistic concept of the individual and the Marxist concept of humanity and to substitute for them the folk community, rooted in the soil and bound together by the bond of its common blood."
The National Socialist bit should be your clue. Nazi was the acronym for Germany's national socialist party. That quote is from Adolf Hitler. I'm reading The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich right now … you would not believe the hatred of individualism present in the Nazi regime.
Now for the two quotes at the beginning of this Nuze bit:
"We must abolish the cult of the individual decisively, once and for all."
I left out the first word of this quote. That word is "Comrades!" This from the lips of none other than Nikita Khrushchev.
"We must stop thinking of the individual and start thinking about what is best for society."
Ahh. The best for last. The person who uttered those words is none other than Hillary Clinton back in 2003 when she was pushing her version of government controlled medical care.
One more quote. A quickie from Ayn Rand:
"The smallest minority on earth is the individual. Those who deny individual rights cannot claim to be defenders of minorities."
Are you ready to give up – to surrender – your individuality to the state? That is the essence of liberalism. You exist to serve the state. Remember the video at the Democrat National Convention? "The government is the only thing we all belong to." What's your take? Do you belong to the government? Or do you belong to yourself. That's another choice you'll be making on November 6th.

Posttranslational modifications of proteins play key roles in the regulation of biological processes and lead to various physiological responses. In recent years, a number of analytical technologies have been developed to help understand the diversity and disease relevance of these modifications. The main areas of focus have included phosphorylation, cysteine redox chemistry, and transformations mediated directly by oxidative stress. However, the nitration of biomolecules is an exciting and relatively understudied area of research. Reactive nitrogen species generated in various disease states can create nitrated biomolecules, and we are only beginning to understand the potential implications of these species. This review explores some of the recent advances in current knowledge concerning the chemistry and biology of nitrated biomolecules.

Ireland v Australia at Belfast
Australia tour of England and Ireland
Ireland have offered free entry to their upcoming matches for those supporters who saw only 10.4 overs of their ODI with Australia in Belfast. Brett Lee took two wickets in his first three deliveries and a fantastic catch from Michael Clarke helped Australia further reduce Ireland to 36 for 3 before the rain returned to cause the abandonment of the one-off ODI.
Supporters will be able to gain free entry to one of Ireland's two World Cricket League matches against Afghanistan in Dublin on July 3 or 5, or for their T20 series against Bangladesh back in Belfast on July 18, 20 or 21.
There was little action against Australia but Lee, making his first appearance of the tour ahead of Australia's five-match ODI series against England, proved his form by knocking over the off stumps of both William Porterfield - for a golden duck - and Ed Joyce in a double-wicket maiden to start the match. Paul Stirling hit four fours in his 24 but fell in Pat Cummins' third over to check Ireland's mini-revival.
With little more than 10 overs bowled, the teams were forced off by a heavy downpour and, despite repeated inspections, the umpires finally called play off shortly before 4pm.
Australia's captain, Clarke, won the toss and sent Ireland in to bat after a 45-minute delay to the scheduled start. The ground had recovered well from heavy pre-match rain, allowing the match to get underway at 11.30am local time, without a reduction on the allotted 50 overs a side.
The tourists made four changes from the team that accounted for Leicestershire in their opening match of the tour, a minor muscle strain ruling out George Bailey and allowing Peter Forrest to come in. The pace attack was reshuffled entirely, Lee, Cummins and Ben Hilfenhaus for Mitchell Johnson, James Pattinson and Clint McKay.
Ireland opened up with Stirling and Porterfield at the top of the order, the same combination that gave Australia a fright the last time these two sides met in 2010, while Tim Murtagh was handed an expected debut.
Ireland 1 Paul Stirling, 2 Will Porterfield (capt), 3 Ed Joyce, 4 Niall O'Brien (wk), 5 Gary Wilson, 6 Kevin O'Brien, 7 Alex Cusack, 8 John Mooney, 9 Trent Johnston, 10 George Dockrell, 11 Tim Murtagh.
Australia 1 David Warner, 2 Matthew Wade (wk), 3 Shane Watson, 4 Michael Clarke (capt), 5 David Hussey, 6 Peter Forrest, 7 Steve Smith, 8 Brett Lee, 9 Pat Cummins, 10 Ben Hilfenhaus, 11 Xavier Doherty.

An Excerpt from My Mother's Secret
A novel based on a true story, a mother and daughter risk their lives to provide shelter to two families and a German soldier--all unbeknownst to each other--in a tiny two-room house in Sokal, Poland, during the Nazi invasion. Based on a true story, MY MOTHER'S SECRET is a profound, captivating, and ultimately uplifting tale intertwining the lives of two Jewish families in hiding from the Nazis, a fleeing German soldier, and the clever and "righteous" mother and daughter who teamed up to save them. Franciszka and her daughter, Helena, are unlikely heroines. They are simple people who mind their own business and don't stand out from the crowd. Until 1939, when crisis strikes. The Nazis have invaded Poland and they are starting to persecute the Jews. Providing shelter to a Jew has become a death sentence. And yet, Franciszka and Helena decide to do just that. In their tiny, two-bedroom home in Sokal, Poland, they cleverly hide one Jewish family of two brothers and their wives in their pigsty out back, another in a makeshift cellar under the kitchen floorboards, and a defecting German soldier in the attic--each group completely unbeknownst to the others. For everyone to survive, Franciszka will have to outsmart her neighbors and the German commanders standing guard right outside her yard. Told simply and succinctly from four different perspectives, MY MOTHER'S SECRET is a reminder that you don't have to be extraordinary to make a difference. You can become extraordinary by making a difference. This book was inspired by the true story of Franciszka Halamajowa, who, with her daughter, saved the lives of fifteen Jews in Poland during the Second World War. She also hid a young German soldier in her attic at the same time. Before the war, there were six thousand Jews in Sokal, Poland. Only thirty survived the war and half of those did so because of Franciszka. This book is fictional, but it was inspired by the true story of Franciszka Halamajowa, who with her daughter saved the lives of fifteen Jews in Poland during the Second World War. She also hid a young German soldier in her attic at the same time. Her son died while transporting a wagon full of supplies to partisan Jews hiding in the forest. Before the war, there were six thousand Jews in Sokal, Poland. Only thirty survived the war and half of those because of one Polish woman, Franciszka. I believe that all of us, like Franciszka, have within us the potential to be great. Sometimes we coast through life without this potential surfacing because life has been easy on us. When we have much to lose, but still choose to do the right thing, we uncover the nobility that is within all of us. To endure what is unbearable and to do it with grace, that is how we know that we have arrived. Trip to Israel In 2012, I visited Yad Vashem, the Holocaust museum in Jerusalem, where there is a tree planted and a plaque to honor Franciszka Halamajowa and her daughter, Helena. People who were not Jewish, but who nevertheless risked their lives to help the Jews escape execution during the Holocaust, are recognized as "the Righteous among the Nations" in Israel. This is how Franciszka and her daughter are remembered. It was my son, Matthew, who actually found the tree, as bushes had grown in front of the plaque, preventing me from seeing it initially. Upon seeing their names there in print before me, I was overcome with emotion. I had written about this woman and her daughter and had imagined their lives, but here was evidence that they indeed did exist. I didn't realize how deeply I would feel until this moment. Planting a tree to remember them by feels so right. |

Effective: May 3, 1993 COORDINATED ISSUE SHIPPING INDUSTRY FEDERAL INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING ON WAGES PAID TO U.S. CREW BY A FOREIGN TRANSPORTATION SHIPPING ENTITY ISSUE: Whether under IRC section 3402, (INCOME TAX COLLECTED AT SOURCE), wages paid by a foreign transportation shipping entity to U.S. seamen crew employees aboard its vessels, should be withheld and reported on Form 941? FACTS: The taxpayers are principally corporations organized in a foreign country, which operate a trade or business in the United States and have a permanent establishment in the United States. They are engaged in the international transportation of cargo or passengers for hire by a water transportation vessel, flagged in a foreign country. The ships typically sail around the world, transporting cargo and/or passengers. Some of the shipping entities sail between the U.S. and a foreign port, while some sail foreign port to foreign port. Some foreign flagged ships operate "cruises to nowhere" which embark and disembark from the same U.S. port. The ship's U.S. crew is typically paid weekly in cash, in international waters. The crew member signs the weekly payroll voucher, acknowledging the receipt of his compensation. The employer does not make any accounting of the employee's yearly earnings. Additionally, the employer does not issue any Form W 2's and/or 1099's to the Internal Revenue Service indicating the yearly earnings of the employee and the amount of the Federal Income Tax Withheld. Additionally, the employer shipping entity has not obtained an "SSN" from their respective employees. Typically, the employer has filed Forms 941 for their shore side personnel. LAW: Section 3401, Definitions & Section 3402, Income Tax Collect At Source: Under section 3402(a)(1), every employer making a payment of wages (as defined in section 3401(a)) is required to withhold federal income taxes as provided in the regulations. Section 3401(d) defines an "employer" generally as any person for whom an individual performs or performed any service, of whatever nature, as the employee 2 of such person. An employer includes a foreign corporation (or other entity) engaged in a U.S. trade or business. Section 3401(a) defines "wages" generally as remuneration for services performed by an employee for his employer with certain exceptions, including for certain services performed outside the U.S. Employee/Employer Relationship General Rules: Income tax withholding under section 3402(a) applies to wages paid to an individual who is an employee, with certain exceptions. Determination as to who is an employee made under common law principles. Treas. Reg. 31.3401(c) 1(b) provides that an employment relationship generally exists "when the person for whom the services are performed has the right to control and direct the individual, not only as to the result to be accomplished by the work but also as to the details and means by which that result is accomplished." The cases of T.L. Bishop v. U.S., 476 F.2d 977 (5th Cir. 1973), Cert. denied, 414 U.S. 911 (1973) and Mayport Fisheries Co, v. U.S., 476 F.2d 981 (5th Cir. 1973) have held that seaman are employees of the ship owner (ship operator) and not the ship master. Wages Paid to U.S. Crew Citizens and Resident Aliens: The U.S. crew members are employees of foreign shipping cargo, cruise line operating entities, or of the vessel owning companies. The remuneration paid to U.S. crew members who are U.S. citizens or resident aliens (including nonresident aliens who have elected to be taxed as resident aliens under section 6013(g) or (h)) would be wages for purposes of section 3401(a). These wages would generally not be excepted under section 3401(a)(8), which excludes from the term "wages" remuneration paid to U.S. citizens that is reasonably anticipated to be exempt from tax under Section 911 or remuneration paid for services performed in a foreign country or a U.S. possession with respect to which wage withholding is required under foreign law. Unless U.S. citizen seaman can establish that they are a resident of a foreign country and their seaman wages are subject to taxation in that resident foreign country, they are not eligible to exclude their income from withholding under section 911. For reasons discussed below, an exemption based upon section 911 would not be available with respect to U.S. citizen crew members, unless they can establish their presence or residence in a foreign country independent of their presence on a foreign flag ship. Section 911 exception is available only to U.S. citizens and not to U.S. resident aliens. Inapplicability of the Section 911 Exception: Benefits under section 911 are conditioned upon the taxpayer being present or residing 3 in a foreign country. A ship employee's presence or residence aboard a ship does not qualify as presence or residence in a foreign country for purposes of section 911 even though the ship is of a foreign registry or is in international waters. The regulations have consistently defined the term "foreign country" as " any territory under the sovereignty of a government other than that of the United States." See Treas. Reg. section 1.9112(h). It includes the territorial waters of the foreign country as determined in accordance with the laws of the United States. In Revenue Ruling 6752, 19671 C.B. 186, cited in L.R. Martin, 50 T.C. 59 (1968), the Service ruled that the Antarctica region is not under the sovereignty of any government and, therefore, is not considered a foreign country for purposes of section 911. Also, in Revenue Ruling 73181, 19731 C.B. 347, the Service ruled that physical presence on a fishing boat in international waters, adjacent to the territorial waters of a foreign country, does not satisfy the presence requirement of Section 911(d)(2). In Souza, 33 T.C. 817 (1960), the court held that a U.S. registered fishing vessel operating off the coast of Peru beyond the 3 mile territorial waters limit but within the 200 mile limit recognized by Peru as its territorial waters does not constitute presence in a foreign country for purposes of section 911. The court ruled, the fact that a vessel is of U.S. or foreign registry should have no effect on the determination of whether its crews members are present or resident in a foreign country. Consequently, the high seas and Antarctica are not considered a foreign country for purposes of section 911. See also, Balestries, 47 BTA 241. Applicability of Section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978: Congress enacted section 530 of the Revenue Act of 1978 as a relief measure for employers to avoid heavy assessments for failing to properly comply with federal employment taxes, i.e., social security taxes and federal income tax withholding. Specifically, section 530 provides relief to employers who fail to treat their workers as employees but have a reasonable basis for treating them as independent contractors. This "interim", but not permanent, solution was intended to give Congress time to resolve the complex problem of defining who is an employee. Section 530 was made permanent under section 269 of TEFRA, and applies to all taxable years beginning after December 31, 1978 until such time as Congress enacts legislation as to the classification of workers as independent contractors or employees. Under section 530, if the Service determines that the workers were improperly treated as independent contractors, the employer may obtain relief if the employer has been consistent in treating the workers as independent contractors and timely issued all appropriate forms, i.e. Forms 1099's. Late filing of the relevant Form 1099's (e.g., in connection with an audit of the relevant years) would not constitute compliance with the filing requirement. If, however, these two conditions are met, then the employer must show he had a reasonable basis for treating the workers as independent contractors. 4 Section 530 did not change the status of the worker as a common law employee. Thus, the worker is considered an employee for all other purposes of the Code. Liability for Tax: Treas. Reg. 31.34031 (Liability for Tax) provides that every employer is required to deduct and withhold the tax under section 3402(a) from the wages of an employee who is liable for the payment of such tax whether or not it is collected from the employee by the employer. If the employer deducts less than the correct amount of tax or fails to deduct any part of the tax, the employer is nevertheless liable for the correct amount of the tax. Federal income tax withholding tax assessments may be adjusted under section 3402(d), to the extent of the amount of tax paid by the employee. However, the employer is not relieved of any penalties or additions to the tax for failure to pay over amounts as withholding, including the 100% penalty under section 6672, Failure To Collect And Pay Over Tax, or section 7201 Attempt To Evade Or Defeat Tax. Section, 3509; Determination Of Employer's Liability For Certain Employment Taxes: Under section 3509 , (effective September 3, 1982), if the failure to withhold income taxes is due to reclassification by the Service of a worker as an employee, the maximum amount of tax that may be assessed is 1.5 percent of the relevant wages as defined in Section 3401 (or 3 percent where the employer has also failed to file the appropriate Form 1099 information returns). Section 3509 relief is available only with respect to reclassification cases. Prop. Treas. Reg. 31.35091((a) and (b)(2) under section 3509 provide that the section applies if the failure is due to the treatment of an employee as not being an employee for purposes of Chapter 24, based on the employer's belief that the worker was not an employee. Thus, where failure to withhold the tax required under section 3402(a) is due to reasons other than the treatment as independent contractors, section 3509 would not apply. Section 3509, also does not apply where the failure to withhold is due to the taxpayer's intentional disregard of the requirements to deduct and withhold the tax, per section 3509(c). It is important to understand that relief under section 530 or Code section 3509 is available only with regard to situations involving the misclassification of workers as independent contractors. These provisions do not apply with regard to "wage" issues. In any event, in view of the Supreme Courts' decision in United states v. Webb, 397 U.S. 179 (1969), 19701 C.B. 194, concluding that seaman are employees for federal employment tax purposes, it seems unlikely that an employer could be entitled to 5 section 530 relief under other than on the basis of a "prior audit." Thus, relief under section 3509 would also be unavailable. BACKUP WITHHOLDING: A 20 percent backup withholding is imposed under section 3406 with respect to a reportable payment, generally where the payee has failed to furnish a taxpayer identification number (TIN) to the payor. The payor may be liable for the amount which should have been backup withheld if it has failed to secure the TIN from a payee to whom it makes a reportable payment and backup withholding is required. The backup withholding tax provisions are effective with respect to payments after December 31, 1983. A reportable payment is defined in section 3405(b). In the case of wages or other remuneration for personal services, a reportable payment includes only a payment that is required to be shown on a return under section 6041 (relating to information returns at source) or section 6041A (relating to information returns concerning payments of remuneration for services). Section 1.60413 of the regulations provides that information returns are not required under section 6041 with respect to payments of income required to be reported on Forms W 2. All wages subject to income tax withholding under section 3402(a)(1) are required to be reported on a Form W 2. See Regulations section 1.60412. Further, regulations section 1.6041A1(d)(2) provides that no return is required under section 6041A with respect to a payment that is exempted under section 1.60413 from reporting requirements of section 6041. Thus, no backup withholding applies with respect to wages paid to crew members who are U.S. citizens or resident aliens attributable to their services performed, to the extent such crew members are employees and not independent contractors. Also, an exemption from the backup withholding tax is provided in section 3406(g)(2) which provides that the tax does not apply to any amount for which withholding is otherwise required under Title 26 of the Code. Amounts paid to individuals who are independent contractors may be subject to information reporting under section 6041 and, thus, to backup withholding under section 3406. Thus, if the taxpayer successfully argues that its crew members are independent contractors, but did not comply with the information reporting and back up withholding requirements, it is exposed to additions to taxes and to the penalties that may be imposed on payors that failed to comply with their obligations under sections 6041 or 3406. A penalty would be imposed on the taxpayer under section 6721(a) for the failure to file 6 an information return. The penalty is $50 for each failure, not to exceed $100,000 for any calendar year. Also, a payor that fails to backup withhold under section 3406 may be assessed the 20 percent backup withholding tax under code section 3403 and regulation section 31.34031. COMPUTATION OF WITHHOLDING TAX: The Income Tax Withholding used by the employer may be either the Percentage Method, Wage Bracket Method or an Alternative Method of Income Tax Withholding as explained, Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service "Circular E" Employer's Tax Guide. The rate of withholding is variable depending upon, martial status, number of exemptions and the frequency of the wage compensation payment. SUMMARY: U.S. seamen wages (are subject to withholding per IRC section 3402(a)(1)) paid by foreign shipping entities, which operate a trade or business within the U.S. and have a permanent establishment. The employer is to maintain an accounting of all compensation paid to his respective employees for the calendar year, indicating the total compensation paid and the amount of Federal Income Tax Withheld. The employer will withhold the Federal Income Tax and report the amounts on the employer's quarterly Form 941 Tax return. Additionally, the employer will furnish the employee by January 31 of the following year, with a Form W 2, indicating the amount of the employees annual gross income and the amount of tax withheld.

Sounds too good to be true? The range of robotic vacuum cleaners does just that. Obviously one of the best advantages of using a robotic vacuum cleaner is the time and convenience it provides. Simply hit the switch and watch it clean your home without any effort from your end. As long as you give it a good clean down when it has accomplished its cleaning job, you don't have to worry too much about its maintenance. Some models of robotic cleaners have the option to clean when you are away, so you always have a nice, clean home to come back to. You don't have to worry if the robotic vacuum cleaner will work on your floor, because it works on vinyl, tiles, carpet or floor boards in your home. It's compact and easy to store so you don't have to worry about making room for a robotic vacuum cleaner in your home.
