Peih-Gee Law the twelfth castaway eliminated from 'Survivor: China'
By Christopher Rocchio, 12/14/2007
Peih-Gee Law
wouldn't go down without a fight.
But the 29-year-old jeweler from Marina Del Rey, CA and last remaining
original Zhan Hum member
could only do so much -- which wasn't enough -- as she became the twelfth castaway eliminated from
: China
during last night's penultimate broadcast of the long-running CBS reality competition series.
"I am glad that I
played to my utmost
," said Peih-Gee following her ouster. "I pushed myself physically, mentally, strategically and ultimately everybody was scared to death to go against me in the Final 3. So I am not going to be a millionaire, but I still feel like I will walk away way richer than I was before I came in this game."

: China's
penultimate episode began with the five remaining castaways returning to the merged Hae Da Fung camp following the
previous Tribal Council
, where
Erik Huffman
was given the boot.
Denise Martin
, a 40-year-old school lunch lady from Douglas, MA, was approached by Peih-Gee and Erik before the Tribal Council and asked about forming a three-person alliance with them.
"I kind of decided to play it safe," said Denise in hindsight. "This could have been one of the biggest mistakes I have made in the game so far."
The next morning, Peih-Gee opined about how hard it was to know she was an outsider at the merged camp since she was the only remaining Zhan Hu member. The castaways then met for their next Reward Challenge, and host Jeff Probst explained the rules.
The castaways would fire arrows using a replica of an ancient Chinese crossbow at a target wall that had their names randomly written on it. Each time an arrow hit a name, that person would score a point regardless of who shot it. To make it more interesting, the castaways would be given five arrows to secretly distribute to give someone more attempts. The person whose target was hit the most wins. The Reward was an overnight trip to the Great Wall of China, where they'd enjoy a large meal and camp overnight.
Peih-Gee received only one arrow -- which she said she "expected" -- and missed the target with it. Denise received two arrows, and she missed the target on her first shot but scored a point for herself on her second shot.
Amanda Kimmel
, a 23-year-old hiking guide and Miss Montana USA 2005 from Los Angeles, CA, had four arrows. She missed the target twice and inadvertently scored two points for Denise with her other two shots.
Todd Herzog
, a 22-year-old flight attendant from Pleasant Grove, UT, was impressive with the ancient Chinese crossbow, scoring a point for himself with each of his first five shots. He missed the target with his sixth and final shot.
Courtney Yates
, a 26-year-old waitress from New York, NY, received the most arrows with 12, and missed the target only three times. She scored one point for herself; one point for Amanda; two points for Todd; and five points for Denise.
Thanks to Courtney's aim, Denise won Reward and -- not surprisingly -- chose to take Courtney. Denise got to pick one more person, and Peih-Gee pleaded to be taken since she
shared a previous Reward
she won with Denise.
"I don't want Peih-Gee to go because I don't want her to get stronger," Denise told Courtney before choosing to take Todd.
"I took Denise on a great Reward," said Peih-Gee. "I gave her the Shaolin Monks. I have been friendly with her from the very beginning and she just doesn't care. Itâs tough to be left out of everything."
Back at camp, Peih-Gee was still pretty pissed. While she realized she "said some things" she "probably shouldn't have," she was sick of being treated like an outcast.
"It's like, hello!" said Peih-Gee. "I'm still a person!"
Despite being part of an alliance with the other three remaining Fei Long members, Amanda also started to hit an emotional wall, upset she wasn't chosen for the Reward. Trying to make the best of a bad situation, the two hashed out their differences and collected fruit together.
As Courtney, Denise and Todd took a private jet to the Great Wall, Todd said he supported Denise's decision to not take Peih-Gee and he also assured Denise that Amanda would "understand" why she wasn't chosen.
"Plus what is she going to do?" said an arrogant Todd. "Align with Peih-Gee in a bush right now?"
The three ate dinner -- which was a complicated process that saw complaining from Todd and Courtney -- before relaxing for the night. Courtney was glad Denise chose to take Todd over Amanda, and had a simple reason for it.
"An angry Todd is a bad Todd," she said.
Back at camp, Peih-Gee and Amanda did some fishing and hauled in a bountiful catch. They had a good time at camp talking and frying up fish, deciding to use a large portion of rice because the others were enjoying a larger meal while on Reward. Amanda described Denise as a "puppet" for ousted Zhan Hu members Jean-Robert Bellande and James Clement, and added she was now serving as a "puppet" for Todd.
"Would you be willing to do Todd or Denise yet if we could swing it?" asked Peih-Gee, sensing her opportunity.
Amanda answered with a pretty non-committal response that she's "open" for anything, however Peih-Gee said it gave her a "little bit of hope." As the group at the Great Wall turned in for the night, Todd asked what would happen if Peih-Gee won Individual Immunity and they were required to vote for one of their own, suggesting they take out Amanda. All the comment did was make Denise scared.
"This is a critical time right now," said Denise. "Someone is going to be left out of our group and I donât want it to be me."
Courtney, Denise and Todd returned to camp the next morning and -- instead of pissing off Peih-Gee and Amanda by gushing about the food they ate -- they pissed Peih-Gee and Amanda off by actually complaining about the food. To make matters worse, Denise told Amanda and Peih-Gee that they had made sandwiches to bring back to camp, but Todd ate them on the plane.
"Todd and Courtney still find things to complain about when they win a Reward, and it just blows my mind. Some people are just so ungrateful. Honestly it just made me mad," said Amanda, adding she thought Denise was at least showing some "compassion." "If Todd doesn't win the next Immunity Challenge, I may have to think about getting rid of Todd."
Hae Da Fung then gathered for
: China's
next Immunity Challenge, and Jeff explained the rules. The castaways would compete in a four-round race, revisiting some of the previous
: China
The first round was a Chinese throwing star contest, in which the four highest scores would move on to the next round, where they were then required to eat one balut. The first three to eat the balut would move on to the next round, in which they had to bounce a ball on a drum while racing through a series of obstacles. The first two to bounce their ball in the finishing bin would move on to the final round. For the final round, they'd use a sword to cut through ropes that release wooden puzzle disks. Using the disks they had to complete a puzzle. First one to finish the puzzle won Immunity.
In the first round, Denise scored six points; Amanda scored three; Peih-Gee and Courtney each scored two; and Todd only scored one, as he was eliminated from the challenge. In the second round -- similar to the way the challenge went
the first time it happened
-- Denise gave-up and refused to eat the balut, allowed Amanda., Courtney and Peih-Gee to advance. Amanda was the first to deposit her ball in the third round's bin, followed by Peih-Gee.
In the final round, Amanda was the first to cut through the ropes and start to carry her puzzle discs. Peih-Gee was right behind her -- and while Amanda had some minor problems with the puzzle -- she claimed Individual Immunity, assuring her a spot in
: China's
Final 4.
Back at camp, Peih-Gee was frustrated since she had come "so close" to winning Immunity for the second week in a row. She was aware she was the next person on the chopping block, and realized Amanda was her "best hope for a reprieve." Amanda wasn't stupid and knew that winning Immunity put her in a powerful position, and while she may have been reluctant to test the waters at first, Todd started to dig himself a grave by complaining about Amanda and Peih-Gee eating too much rice the previous day.
"I just kind of looked at him like, 'I donât even want to hear it,'" explained Amanda. "It took everything I had not to like flip out... I have been dancing around the idea of getting rid of Todd for a while now, because he's a threat -- he's a strategist -- like he could go behind my back at any point in the game and take me out. Me and Peih-Gee have definitely bonded on a personal level, so I'm beginning to think maybe I'll have a better chance to get to the Final 3 right now with Denise and Peih-Gee."
Peih-Gee lobbied hard with Denise and Amanda to try to save her skin, however Denise correctly stated that Todd's "made a lot of enemies on the jury" so it may be worth keeping him around. Todd and Courtney thought it was a little strange that they hadn't heard any lobbying from Peih-Gee.
"Watch me get blind-sided tonight," said Todd, before expressing confidence in his alliance.
"I had a little paranoia when I saw my name read twice at the last Tribal Council," explained Todd. "But I still feel kind of comfortable. It's just really, really, really worked out for me, that my alliance was the right one. Peih-Gee was coming off as a fighter, and that's why she has to go so badly. If she somehow convinces those other girls to vote me off, I will be pissed off if I go home... livid! But big ups to them for figuring a way to get rid of me."
: China's
twelfth Tribal Council commenced, and Erik, James, Michael "Frosti" Zernow, Jean-Robert and Jaime Dugan entered as the first five members of the jury. Peih-Gee gave everyone a good laugh when she described herself as a "positive person," but Amanda stood-up for her new friend.
"I got to learn a lot about Peih-Gee and I really respect how she's made it this far -- and she is still strong and fighting -- and I really respect her for that," said Amanda.
Todd stated he had "pissed the most people off" on the jury and thus was a good castaway to keep around. Peih-Gee made one final attempt to save her butt by explaining who deserved to remain in the game.
"For me, most deserving means somebody who fought hard every single chance they had... really came out here and challenged themselves," she said. "I think someone who came out here and managed to get to the same position -- and did it honorably -- I think they deserve to be here more than somebody who go to the same position and did it by cheating, lying and backstabbing, all of that."
However Peih-Gee's plea fell of deaf ears, as she was unanimously ousted by a 4-1 margin, becoming the sixth member of the jury.
: China's
two-hour finale is scheduled to air Sunday, December 16 at 8PM ET/PT on CBS and will be immediately followed by a live one-hour reunion show. Despite last night's "three Tribal Councils" promo, CBS has confirmed to Reality TV World that
: China
will actually end with three castaways attempting to convince the game's jury to award them the show's $1,000,000 grand prize (the third "Tribal Council" will reveal the results of a home viewers vote that will award $100,000 to one of the season's castaways).

Majority of healthy people gain their daily requirements for Vitamin B12 from their diet since the nutrient is found in animal-based products and seafood. However, there are instances when an individual does not absorb the nutrient from the diet or the vitamin is not present in the foods eaten because it mainly consists of vegetables, legumes and yeast-based products. In order to treat the B12 deficiency, these individuals may be required to fitness edge to avoid serious health complications.
Who are most likely to require Vitamin B12 supplements?
Most vegetarians or vegans as they are commonly called avoid animal-based products and the bulk of their diet consists of fresh produce, grains and legumes. Nutritional deficiencies are a common concern that is why it is recommended that all vegans use commercially available supplements to increase their intake to required dietary levels to avoid the serious consequences of Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Another group of people who run a higher risk of vitamin B12 deficiency are those who are above 50 and are at risk due to a condition known as atrophic gastritis. Atrophic gastritis is a condition wherein the stomach lining has thinned. If the symptoms have been overlooked, it can lead to Vitamin B12 deficiency.
Why are people with atrophic gastritis given Vitamin B12 shots?
Diagnosis for atrophic gastritis is determined through clinical observation and testing. Signs of B12 deficiency are determined through blood tests before the proper treatment is prescribed. Treatment for the deficiency has traditionally been administered through intramuscular injections based on the patient's condition. B12 injections have consistent results regardless if the reasons for the deficiency are due to problems with absorption or pernicious anemia. Normally injections are administered because the absorption of Vitamin B12 may not be possible since the production of intrinsic factor has been seriously affected. Intrinsic factor has to be combined with Vitamin B12 for absorption. B12 injections may be administered daily until the body is able to store up on the nutrient and can supply the body's needs for months. After which, a B12 injection will only be necessary to top up the supply once every 3 months. If the patient is suffering from pernicious anemia, the B12 supplement will be required for the rest of his life.
What happens if Vitamin B12 deficiency is not treated?
Vitamin B12 deficiency can damage the nervous system even among individuals who do not suffer from pernicious anemia. Early detection of the symptoms will make treatment a lot easier. Some of the most common symptoms include fatigue, weakness, loss of appetite, weight loss and nerve problems like numbness and tingling sensation on the arms and legs. Other symptoms include depression, mood swings, confusion, loss memory and dementia which mean immediate consultation with a doctor to determine whether the underlying reason is Vitamin B12 deficiency. Aside from suggesting a diet of animal-based products, Vitamin B12 supplements are usually prescribed which can be administered through injections, pills or sublingual forms. The dosage will depend upon the prescription after the tests are done.
Having harmful chemicals or toxic substances within your body can be quite a problem due to the fact that your liver and kidneys may be heavily affected. You have to understand that both your liver and kidneys play vital roles to help keep you alive.

Hair loss can be caused by a multiple number of causes and although scientists are studying and finding ways on how to cure different conditions, they still haven't found a cure to all hair loss conditions. However, their studies have led them to figure out the different mechanisms by which hair loss happens. They have high hopes of developing cures because they are already getting to know more about these conditions. Recent studies may not have produced a lot of faster hair growth solution, but they have discovered some other things that can help with the hair loss. Let us take a closer look at them.
1. Dermal Papillae Cells – With the different studies, scientist found out that these cells have something to do with the growth of new hair. They are now studying about it a little bit more to see if it can be used as a potential treatment for hair loss. They harvested these cells and grouped them into clumps. They then grafted it onto the scalp of a subject where they are now seeing hair growth in bald areas. It looks promising but studies about this method are still being conducted.
2. Ruxolitinib – This is a drug that is used to treat patients who have cancer of the bone marrow. What is does is to kill the t-cells that causes an immune reaction. They are now looking into its ability to kill t-cells that cause an immune reaction to the follicles which then lead to hair loss. More clinical trials are needed before it can be released in the market as a treatment for hair loss.
3. Tofacitinib – This is a drug that is used to treat patients with rheumatoid arthritis but was successful in regrowing the hair of 25 year old male with Alopecia Universalis, which is a type of alopecia that causes no hair to grow not only in the heat but in the other body parts such as the eyebrows or eyelashes. This is very exciting but there are still some side effects on this drug that needs to be considered. This is why more clinical trials are to be done on this drug.
4. Stem Cell – Stem cells have lots of different uses and there is still a controversy in this field because of the use of stem cells. The two cell types, namely the fibroblast and keratinocytes are the ones that are used in tests. These stem cells are planted onto the scalp of the subject where hairs are allowed to grow naturally. This treatment is still under study and experimentation are still done on men and women. This treatment is meant for only a few different kind of hair loss and alopecia is not one of them.
All are still hoping that they find more and more cure to the hair loss conditions because it does not just affect the hair of the patient but the whole self confidence of the patient. Some may live with the fact that their hair is getting thinner and thinner but there are still some who cannot accept this fact.
Is your whole foot or some portions of it infected with fungi? Is the color of your nail whitish or a bit yellow right now? Right now, if you think you've been infected with a fungus, you should go ahead and treat yourself in the best way possible. That's because fungi can spread throughout your body and cause various types of diseases. Mainly, you could have systemic troubles because of them. For you to get rid of the fungi that are on your foot, you should first find out what kind of fungus you're dealing with, know the extent of your infection and then seek medical treatment by going to a physician or immediately applying a topical solution which has managed to work for many. For some specifics which can assist you in getting your foot free from any fungus, have a look at what's written below.
First of all, you should find out what's causing your foot disease before trying out anything. Even if you know that it's a fungus that's causing your troubles, you should find out just what type of fungus you have to deal with. Go to a doctor who specializes in fungal treatment and have your foot thoroughly examined. Some nail infections may have the same symptoms but the agent that's responsible may be different. When you go to a physician, a sample might be taken from you and then sent to a laboratory for analysis. In some cases, a doctor might be able to identify the pathogen that's responsible right away. It's when you visit a certified healthcare provider wherein you would be able to not only examined but also prescribed with certain medications which cannot be bought without a prescription.
Keeping an infection from spreading and gradually treating it through natural means can also help. To keep fungi from scattering, you should make sure that you separate the towels that you use to wipe the infected area or dispose of them properly. Take note that fungi can be transmitted from one person to another through direct contact. It also helps to wash the affected area to make sure that particles or pathogens which can spread would be removed. Of course, to really get rid of fungi, you really have to modify your diet and apply appropriate medication.
Try looking for where to find nail fungus treatment online for you to be directed to some of the most popular and effective drugs which many have tried to work. Now, there are oral and even just topical remedies which are approved by the FDA and available worldwide. There are now fungicide drugs that are sold as over-the-counter medicines and also creams that one can apply easily. Aside from getting some medications into your system for you to eliminate fungi, you should also modify your food intake as well. Try eating those that do not have yeast so that you won't promote fungal growth. Instead, you could try taking in yogurt which has live anti-microbial ingredients that can help you kill fungi and other pathogens like bacteria.
If you are one of the ever increasing number of people that are considered to be over-weight, you have probably considered at one time or other, to either commence an un-appetizing diet or join a gymnasium in order to try and reduce that weight. Like all too many others though, you have decided that a bland looking diet would never satisfy your hunger and so you would be compelled to snack between meals if you were to maintain any kind of energy level, and as snacking would probably make the weight problem worse, why bother. You may have considered a gymnasium subscription but, you have a busy work schedule hardly affording you any time for a decent social life as it is and so, instead of subscribing to a gymnasium, you decided to use the stairs instead of the elevator which, isn't a bad idea except, there always seems to be a reason why you can't use the stairs today; late for work, extra tired or just too upset with the world.
Now though, you no longer have to consider these extreme methods in order to shed those pounds, there are new ways to lose weight that don't require the soul destroying diet or the over excessive exercising, all you have to do is find one. Although the weight loss center Addison is one, there are many more to be found for those that are serious about losing weight, just find one that suits your life style, so you know that you will be able to maintain the program.
If you are one of the people that is over-weight, especially if you are one that is considered to be obese, which is 20% or more over-weight than the average for your height and age, you should perhaps consider a weight loss program of one type or another, not because it may increase your energy level or because it could build your self-esteem but because it is healthier. Being obese has been proven to contribute to many health problems and so by shedding a few pounds you could well look forward to a longer healthier life.
Some health problems that obesity have been proven to attribute to are type 2 diabetes, high blood pressure, gout, heart decease, sleeping disorders and several different types of cancer. Although just because you are obese, it doesn't mean by any study that you will automatically have to suffer from one of these problems, it is just that you are more likely to. Plus of course losing weight can add to your own self-esteem, energy and all round feeling of well-ness and so considering that there is no real need to sacrifice eating well or missing out on social hours by exercising to lose weight, there is little reason as to why you shouldn't at least look into the different possibilities of how to lose weight. Now with the new hassle free programs that exist today, there is no better time than the present to look them up.
There are many diet training programs out there- have you considered Old School New Body yet? A quick Google search will bring you tones of old school new body pdf details, but here's some information on this fabulous new training program to get you started. We know you'll want to explore it further.
We all age, after all- and there's nothing wrong with that.
But part of that aging process is the fact that we can no longer keep up the same muscle tone we had in our youth- not, that is, if we're not actively doing anything to maintain it. Modern culture has socialized us that the only way to tackle this is endless cardio cranked out in a gym- and the matching starvation diet that leaves us drawn, unhealthy, susceptible to every virus going around, and generally unhappy. And let's face it- they tend not to be very open or welcoming to older participants, or anyone not thoroughly invested in the 'gym' culture. Old school New Body wants to change that mindset.
Really? How would that work?
Muscle burns fat all the time, not just when you're exercising. That's why strength training can have awesome effects on your fitness. This resistance program returns to old school roots to help you achieve a body that's not only strong, but that's also optimized to burn fat and keep you fit. In the process, it counters the aging process- and you have time to live your life and the energy to do it. The routines are short, sweet and work to the max to ensure effectiveness- so you don't need to spend hour after hour unproductively laboring.
Who is this program not ideal for?
There are a few people this program won't suit.
• Those who are totally ingrained in the diet and cardio mentality.
• Those who do not want to undertake a strength training program
• Those who are unwilling to work on their physique.
• Those who have convinced themselves there's a reason they can't undertake training- like being 'too old'.
• Those unwilling to alter their eating patterns at all, or who have attached themselves to the 'crash diet' mentality and won't undertake a lifestyle eating change.
So, what's Old School New Body all about?
As we've mentioned, it's about harnessing the power of resistance training to improve muscular strength and help you achieve your fitness goals. Combined with a simple dietary swing that's not about deprivation but rather about learning to eat healthy and nutrient dense foods that heal, promote and support the body on the journey. You'll find that the short but effective program leaves you more time in the day for the things that really matter- family, fun and friends.
And best of all, it's completely accessible to people of all ages, sizes and personalities. Achieve your body dreams with the Old School New Body training pdf!
Losing weight has become one of the greatest concerns of most people nowadays. More and more people are becoming overweight and obese. This is a worrying trend given the fact that obesity, aside from being a nuisance on its own, comes with myriads of other problems such as heart diseases and diabetes.
Hence, many people are in need of urgent weight loss solutions. Unfortunately, unscrupulous people have taken advantage of this and are now involved in selling fad diets and food supplements that are designed to help people lose weight. One thing you can be sure of is that most of them never actually work.
Paleo diet is one of those diet plans that can help one lose weight so long as he or she is able to stick to simple paleo recipes
which will aid him/her in losing weight. Paleo way of living has come out as one of the most popular method of losing weight without going through the painful process of eating low-carb diets.
Let me tell you why low-carb diets never work: first, they deprive us of essential nutrients in the body. Actually, our bodies need carbohydrates to function optimally and without them, we become very weak and very thin. Secondly, you can only remain thin (not lose weight)as long as you keep avoiding carbs. As a matter of fact, there is a difference between losing weight and looking thin and frail. If your aim is to lose weight, do not fall for the low-carb diet fads because they cause more harm than good. Thirdly, if you are relying on low-carb diets, ensure you never eat carbohydrate-rich food again. Otherwise, if you do, you will regain your weight and sometimes it might even be worse.
So the answer to weight problems lies in adopting a paleo diet lifestyle. The diet has gained popularity in the recent past because it has helped millions of people regain their health and stay strong. Paleo diet also helps reduce fatigue, clear up the skin and reduce stress and inflammation. Paleo adherents also have extremely lower risk of contracting diabetes and heart diseases. Even the act of just changing your body's composition can be life changing.
Paleo will actually help you reduce weight because it prevents your from eating a lot of fluff such as candies, cookies, bread, bagels, crackers, sandwich wraps, tortilla chips, pasta, rise and added sugar. Most of thse things contain many calories, especially those manufactured from refined flours. It means they are not helping you. Our lifestyle today does not allow us to eat these kind of foods and get away with it because most of the carbohydrates will be unused and stored in the body as fats.
Another reason why paleo diet helps you to reduce weight is that it increases your thirst for water. As you are probably already aware, drinking a lot of water will help in reducing weight. So if you are looking to lose weight, paleo is probably the best alternative.
The popularity of websites like NutritionThatFits.com continues to soar as people realize the value in remaining healthy. More people realize that processed foods and fast foods are horrible for their health. If you're interested in living a long and happy life, then you must do what it takes to make real changes. A nutritionist can help you to realize these changes. If you choose not to hire a nutritionist, then you can simply find a friend or family member, and pledge to help one another to stay on the right path. It takes team work to become successful with good nutrition.
Everyone gets sick, but even common colds can put a stop on your day. No one wants to go to work feeling awful. Colleagues do not want to be around you when you are sick, but you do not want to miss work and lose money, either. The best thing to do, is to eat healthy. When you eat plenty of fruits and vegetables, it allows you to recover from illnesses much faster. A cold or flu virus will fester and linger for long periods of time if you do not do something to make yourself start feeling better. This is important, as your recovery will help you to return to work or school.
Many people do not equate good nutrition with being more social, but it does matter. Eating right will help you to feel much more healthy. This includes mental aspects of your life. You will be more social if you feel better about yourself. Eating foods high in sugar and fat can make you feel lethargic. These foods also cause sleeping problems. When you do not get enough sleep, then it can negatively affect your mind function. Eating so-called "power foods," will help you to think through problems much more easily.
Changing to a nutritious diet also allows you to leave fast food behind. Fast food chains are heard to give up because they are so convenient. When we have been working all day long, the last thing many of us wants to do, is cook a dinner from scratch. However, this is necessary if you want to start being much more healthy. Fast foods are high in saturated fats, and they consist almost entirely of processed meat. Recently, China processing plants came under fire for their methods of meat usage. McDonald's and other fast food chains import much of their meat from abroad.
Eating healthy foods allows you to lead an active life. Your heart will become stronger, and you will be able to achieve much more than you ever have before. Active lifestyles require energy, and not the kind of energy that you get from fast food. Change your eating habits and you will begin to see what a difference it makes.

Post–Ownership Change Treatment of Built-in Gains and Losses
By Maureen McGetrick and Randy Schwartzman
Built-in Gains and Losses
An exception to the general loss limitation rules of IRC section 382 occurs when a built-in gain or loss is recognized following an ownership change. The exceptions apply only if the loss company has a net unrealized built-in gain (NUBIG) or loss (NUBIL). A NUBIG or NUBIL is defined as "the amount by which the fair market value of the assets of such (loss) corporation is more or less, respectively, than the aggregate adjusted tax basis of such assets at such time." If the NUBIG or NUBIL does not exceed the threshold amount (the lesser of $10 million or 15% of the fair market value of the assets at the date of the ownership change), then it is considered zero. If the loss company has a NUBIG and a built-in gain is recognized (RBIG) during the recognition period, the section 382 limitation is increased by the amount of the RBIG for that year. If the loss company has a NUBIL and a built-in loss is recognized (RBIL) during the recognition period, that loss is subject to limitation as if it were a pre-change loss. The recognition period refers to the five-year period beginning on the change date.
An additional provision under IRC section 382 states that items of income or loss that are properly taken into account during the recognition period but are attributable to periods before the ownership change will be treated as RBIGs or RBILs. In determining whether the threshold amounts have been met, the amount of the NUBIG or NUBIL is adjusted for amounts that would be treated as built-in gains or losses if such amounts were properly taken into account during the recognition period.
Because regulations have not been written on the built-in gain and loss rules under IRC section 382(h), only limited guidance was available before the issuance of Notice 2003-65 in September 2003. The notice provides two safe harbor methods for computing built-in gains and losses: the IRC section 1374 approach and the IRC section 338 approach. The choice and implementation of the proper method could have substantial impact on a taxpayer's ability to maximize the utilization of NOLs.
Section 1374 Approach
The IRC section 1374 approach is a direct asset sale approach and should be the preferred method for a loss company with a NUBIL. Under this approach, the NUBIG or NUBIL is the amount of gain or loss that would be recognized if the company had sold all of its assets immediately before the ownership change. Specifically, the NUBIG or NUBIL is computed by determining the following:
This amount represents a NUBIG to the extent it is greater than zero. It is a NUBIL to the extent it is less than zero.
The section 1374 approach relies on the accrual method of accounting to identify income or deduction items as RBIG or RBIL. An accrual-basis taxpayer might not have any income or deduction items treated as RBIG or RBIL under this method, while a cash-basis taxpayer will. Items of income or deduction properly included in income during the recognition period are considered "attributable to periods before the change date" if an accrual method taxpayer would have included the item in income or been allowed a deduction for the item before the change date.
Under this approach, income from built-in gain assets (wasting assets) is not considered RBIG, because the income did not accrue prior to the change date. This approach departs from the tax accrual rule, however, in its treatment of depreciation and amortization deductions. In accordance with IRC section 382(h)(2)(B), depreciation and amortization deductions are treated as RBIL except to the extent that the loss company can establish that the deduction is not attributable to the excess of the tax basis of the assets over the fair market value (FMV) as of the change date. Other special exceptions to the accrual rule apply to cancellation of indebtedness (COD) income and bad debt deductions recognized during the first 12 months of the five-year recognition period. These items are treated as RBIG and RBIL, respectively, if the debt was held as of the beginning of the recognition period.
The following example from the proposed regulations illustrates how income from wasting assets is treated for purposes of the section 1374 approach:
Example: LossCo has a NUBIG of $300,000 that is attributable to several nonamortizable assets with an aggregate fair market value of $650,000 and an aggregate adjusted basis of $500,000, and a patent with a fair market value of $170,000 and an adjusted basis of $20,000. The patent is an amortizable section 197 intangible as defined in section 197(c). In Year 1 of the recognition period, LossCo has gross income of $75,000, $20,000 of which is attributable to royalties collected in connection with the license of the patent. No part of the $20,000 attributable to the royalties is RBIG in Year 1, because the income would not have been properly taken into account before the change date by an accrual method taxpayer. Accordingly, LossCo's section 382 limitation for Year 1 is not increased by any part of that amount. Comments: LossCo has a NUBIG because the net BIG of $300,000 is greater than 15% of the FMV of the assets ($650,000 x 0.15 = $97,500). If the patent were sold in the recognition period for a gain of $200,000, then $150,000 would be considered a RBIG (FMV minus the adjusted tax basis at the date of the ownership change).
Section 338 Approach
This approach determines whether a NUBIG or NUBIL exists by reference to the value of a company's stock. If 100% of a company's stock is acquired in a single transaction, the price in that acquisition should set the value of the company for the purposes of the annual IRC section 382 limitation as well as the value to be used in determining if a NUBIG or NUBIL exists under the IRC section 338 approach. When individuals or entities in the aggregate acquire greater than 50% of the stock in discrete transactions that involve minority blocks of stock, however, aggressive planning, supported by appraisals, can increase the annual limitation as well as the amount of NUBIG.
The IRC section 338 approach identifies items of RBIG and RBIL by comparing the loss corporation's actual income and deductions with income and deductions that would result had the corporation made a section 338 election on a hypothetical sale of its stock on the date of the ownership change. As a result, certain assets may be treated as generating RBIG even if they are not disposed of during the recognition period (e.g., goodwill and other intangibles). This approach represents a significant departure from the section 1374 approach and presents significant planning opportunities.
Under the IRC section 338 approach, NUBIG or NUBIL is computed in the same manner as under the IRC section 1374 approach. Therefore, contingent consideration (including contingent liabilities) is taken into account in the initial calculation of NUBIG and NUBIL, rather than adjusted for later, as it would be in an actual section 338 election.
The IRC section 338 approach identifies RBIG and RBIL from sales and exchanges of assets by comparing the actual gain or loss with what would have resulted had the loss corporation made an IRC section 338 election with respect to a "hypothetical purchase" of all of its stock on the change date.
The major benefit of the section 338 approach is that a loss corporation with a NUBIG can treat income from "wasting" built-in gain assets as generating RBIG even if the assets are not disposed of during the recognition period. This approach assumes, for any given year, that the asset generates income equal to the cost recovery deduction that would have been allowed for the asset if a section 338 election had been made with respect to the hypothetical purchase. A valuation may be required to determine a proper value for the stock of the company and the hypothetical allocation of purchase price to the various wasting assets under the seven asset classes, using the methodology of section 338. The RBIG attributable to a wasting asset is determined as the excess of the cost recovery that would have been allowed had the section 338 election been made over the actual cost recovery deduction attributable to the asset.
The following example from the proposed regulations illustrates this principle:
Example: LossCo has a NUBIG of $300,000 that is attributable to various nonamortizable assets with an aggregate fair market value of $710,000 and an aggregate adjusted basis of $500,000, and a patent with a fair market value of $120,000 and an adjusted basis of $30,000. The patent is an amortizable section 197 intangible as defined in section 197(c), for which 10 years of tax depreciation remain. In Year 1 of the recognition period, LossCo has gross income of $75,000. In Year 1, $5,000 is RBIG attributable to the patent: the excess of the $8,000 amortization deduction that would have been allowed had a section 338 election been made with respect to a hypothetical purchase of all of the stock of LossCo ($120,000 FMV divided by 15, the amortization period), over $3,000 (the actual allowable amortization deduction). This $5,000 of RBIG increases LossCo's section 382 limitation for Year 1.
Unfortunately, symmetry exists for a loss corporation with a NUBIL. In this situation, the 338 approach treats certain BIL assets as generating RBIL even if those assets are not disposed of during the recognition period. The IRC section 1374 approach will generally yield a more favorable result for a loss corporation with a NUBIL, while the IRC section 338 approach would yield a more favorable result for a loss corporation with a NUBIG.
Evaluating Options and Opportunities
Selecting the best approach under Notice 2003-65 for identifying BIG and BIL could have significant impact on a taxpayer's ability to use its NOL. In particular, the acknowledgement by the IRS that income from a wasting asset can generate RBIG represents a significant planning opportunity for companies with significant goodwill and other appreciated assets that have undergone a change in ownership.
Taxpayers may rely on either of the two approaches set forth in Notice 2003-65 for purposes of applying the BIG and BIL rules to ownership changes that occurred prior to the issuance of this notice (limited to open years) or after the issuance of the notice (and prior to the effective date of temporary or final regulations to be issued in the future).

KATIE Vs. MEN: Whats Your Deal-Breaker?
By Katie Michaels, DERF Lifestyle Columnist
You would think that girls have a smaller list of things that would qualify as deal-breakers. Not true. Call it shallow if you want, but our list may surprise you.
You would think that girls have a smaller list of things that would qualify as deal-breakers. Not true. Call it shallow if you want, but our list may surprise you.
Yes, we still believe that it's what's on the inside that counts. That's definitely most important…if you can get there.
I've made reference, at least a few times, to letting out the guys' secrets. Well, I'm feeling friendly today, for whatever reason…the great sex I had this weekend? Maybe. Point is, I'm feeling friendly enough to throw you guys a bone. I'll even make it simple for you and give you a nice little list.
It's a deal-breaker, so run like hell if…
1. It takes your guy longer to get ready than you - can we say, "metro?"
2. His teeth glow brighter than Jessica Simpson's - what's next, an audition for a reality TV show?
3. He has a fake tan - does he get facials and pedicures too?
4. He struts instead of walks - really, "hun", you're not all that.
5. He has questionable tattoos (cartoon characters, a design across his lower back, the word "MOM"!) - he's either an absolute dork, or super creepy!
6. He's skinnier than you - I mean, really, how are you going to have mind-blowing sex if you're stronger than he is? (Yes boys, no matter what those other girls are innocently proclaiming, we do like it rough sometimes.)
7. He's shorter than you - too Wizard of Oz.
8. He gets his eyebrows waxed - what a wuss! I'm all for getting rid of that uni-brow, but be a man and take the pain - pluck!
9. He gets his hair highlighted - again, say it with me…"metro."
10. His, um, "package" has piercings - I said we liked it rough sometimes…not sadism.
11. You suggest to him that you have sex in front of a mirror, so you both can watch, and he says, "No." - is he gay?
12. He talks dirty in bed, but when you do, he tells you, with a disgusted look on his face, to stop - can you say, "Prude?" Boys, boys, boys, we reeeally don't like double-standards.
13. He won't do it with the lights on - by far, the biggest deal-breaker of all - saying no to the mirror is bad enough, but not even wanting to watch for
himself is a HUGE turn-off. Guys, big tip - it's hard to resist being absolutely turned on when we can watch you watch us. Man, I'm nice.
Well, I think that's enough for now. You guys should really thank my boyfriend for this weekend, I guess, lol…I gave you a lot more information than I planned!

Wild Magnolias Featuring Big Chief Bo Dollis and Big Chief Monk Boudreaux @ Tipitina's – 3/10/12
Review by Scott Kushner || Photo gallery courtesy of Jeffrey Dupuis
New Orleans is easily distracted.
While eating at world-class restaurants, we talk about our next meal. During cherished celebrations like Jazz Fest and Mardi Gras, we continuously compare it to past years' events to display our keen levels of appreciation.
Yet on Saturday night at Tipitina's, there was nothing but joy, gratitude and awe from the age-diverse crowd as Big Chief Bo Dollis took his ailing body to the stage for what some believed to be the final time.
Flanked by fellow legend Big Chief Monk Boudreaux and the Wild Magnolias, Dollis forced his signature scream and ebullient attitude to crack through the illness which wouldn't even allow him to stand on his own.
Backed by Billy Iuso and the Restless Natives, the Wild Magnolias with Boudreaux spun through a series of Mardi Gras Indian staples, cranking out crowd favorites "Big Chief", "Hoo Na Nae" and "Handa Wanda" amongst many others.
But it was Dollis who ratcheted the energy up into a new stratosphere in both of his stints on the microphone. After limping onto the stage with the support of the Wild Magnolias and various family members, Dollis repeatedly told the crowd, "I can't sing the way I used to."
He was greeted with a hearty response of, "sing it anyway!".
So, decked out in a three-piece suit, sitting on a folding chair, Dollis harkened back to the days of parading in a headdress and belted out everything he could in prolonged versions of "Cabbage Alley".
As he plowed through verse after verse, the crowd's response grew into a roar of excitement and gratefulness which kept Dollis' face transfixed with an ear-to-ear smile, and prompted him to frequently proclaim his love for those in attendance.
By his second stint, there were occasions when it seemed Dollis could no longer muster the energy to push out another word into the microphone. For a brief period Dollis appeared frustrated by his limitations and Boudreaux stepped in to assist his old friend as Dollis' body wouldn't do what his mind wanted.
Yet just when it seemed Dollis was ready to step down, the grin came back on his face and he let out a perfectly-timed, gravely, throated howl to a sea of raised hands and hearty applause. He sustained the screams between verses and made sure if he was going out, it would be on his own terms.
When the song finally came toward its conclusion, family members went to assist Dollis out of his chair, to escort him off the stage. But Dollis wasn't quite done yet.
He made certain to capture the poetry of the moment.
With both arms attached to loved-ones, the Big Chief was risen to his feet where he started to swivel his hips, shake his forearms and dance with everything he had left as an eruption of noise came from the crowd.
Jubilant fists filled the air and the floor swayed back and forth as Dollis exited.
Still, the most encapsulating images from Saturday night came on the numerous occasions when Dollis stuck his pronounced, crooked index finger to the crowd and commanded, "One more! One more time!"
God willing, he's right.

Flowers for Eve and Tom's wedding, version one
November 26, 2012
This is sort of the "first draft" of a collection of flowers I created for Eve and Tom, a couple from the U.K. I'm going to add a few more details to the bridal bouquet for sure but I'm still thinking on it a little bit. The heart in the bouquet is made to hold one of Eve's beloved brooches. These posie-style bouquets have been super popular for me lately. I love making them because they take less time to make the foundation of each flower so I can spend more time thinking creatively about how to make the bouquet special on the whole.
I took these photos at night in my office against a white backdrop, so they're pretty cold. I tried to work with it.
Hope you had a lovely Cyber Monday and found some good deals!
I haven't started my shopping yet. It might be a year of homemade gifts.

Cold doesn't enter my mind at all when I see these pictures — they are some of my favorite bouquet pictures you've posted! Wintery, yes. But not cold. Beautiful!
I love all of this so much. These are my favorite you've ever done besides mine. The colors are perfect. I would buy these just to have.
thanks brittan! I love those little black polka dot buttons. I wish I had a million more.

Dead Meadow's unique marriage of Sabbath riffs, dreamy layers of guitars fuzz bliss, and singer Jason Simon's high-pitched melodic croon have wond over both psychedelic pop/rock and stoner-rock fans alike. Although the band's members met while attending all-ages punk shows in and around Washington D.C.'s punk/indie scene, the trio's sound draws more of their sound from such classic rock legends as Pink Floyd and Black Sabbath. The trio formed in the fall of 1998 out the ashes of local indie rock bands The Impossible Five and Coulour by singer-guitarist Jason Simon, bassist Steve Kille, and drummer Mark Laughlin. The three members set out to fuse their love of early 70's hard rock and 60's psychedelia with their love of fantasy and horror writers J.R.R. Tolkien and H.P. Lovecraft. ~ Rick Kutner, All Music Guide
