Tax Gap:
Limiting Sole Proprietor Loss Deductions Could Improve Compliance but Would Also Limit Some Legitimate Losses

Sole proprietors, who own unincorporated businesses by themselves, underreported their net income by 57 percent or $68 billion for 2001, according to the Internal Revenue Service's (IRS) most recent estimate. The underreporting includes both understated receipts and overstated expenses and may result in losses that can be deducted against income from other sources, such as wages. GAO was asked to (1) describe sole proprietor losses and the extent to which the losses are noncompliant, (2) assess how well IRS addresses the noncompliance, and (3) identify any options to better limit noncompliant losses. To meet its objectives, GAO analyzed IRS research databases, case files, and examination results data and met with IRS officials.
About 5.4 million or 25 percent of all sole proprietors reported losses in 2006. Ninety-five percent of these loss filers deducted some or all of their losses against other income, deducting a total of $40 billion. According to IRS estimates last made for 2001, 70 percent of the sole proprietor tax returns reporting losses had losses that were either fully or partially noncompliant. About 53 percent of aggregate dollar losses reported in 2001 were noncompliant. This noncompliance would correspond to billions of dollars of lost tax revenue. IRS's compliance programs address only a small portion of sole proprietor expense noncompliance. Despite investing nearly a quarter of all revenue agent time in 2008, IRS was able to examine (audit) about 1 percent of estimated noncompliant sole proprietors. These exams are costly and yielded less revenue than exams of other categories of taxpayers, in part because sole proprietorships are small in terms of receipts. Another enforcement program that primarily uses third-party information to electronically verify compliance is not effective because little expense information is reported by third parties. One approach for limiting sole proprietor loss noncompliance would impose a rule that limits losses that could be deducted from other income. The tax code has a number of such limitations. A loss limitation could reduce noncompliant losses but would also limit the ability of sole proprietors to claim legitimate losses. Another approach would improve IRS's estimates of the extent to which activities not engaged in for profit, such as hobbies, are contributing to noncompliant sole proprietor losses. Expenses associated with these activities are not deductible, but IRS's research on the causes of sole proprietor noncompliance has not used available data to estimate the extent of this type of noncompliance. Without such an estimate, IRS could be missing an opportunity to reduce noncompliant sole proprietor losses.
Recommendations for Executive Action
Status: Open
Comments: IRS will use the National Research Program (NRP) reporting compliance study of form 1040 filers to gather information to estimate the extent of activities not engaged in for profit. This research will start with NRP's Tax Year (TY) 2009 sample and also cover TY 2010 and 2011. According to IRS, the time required to complete this research will depend on the number of observations identified during each tax year's NRP examinations. Update: Since the TY 2009 examinations do not start until FY 2011 and 3 years of examinations are needed to measure the noncompliance and a year is needed to analyze examination results, noncompliance data will not be available until FY 2015. Update: IRS added guidance in the IRM (Sec 184.108.40.206.2.9) in 2011 for NRP auditors of Schedule C filers that they suspect of being not engaged in for profit to classify the issue under " Section 183 - Not Engaged in for Profit Activity." As of October 2014, IRS has delayed its initial estimates of noncompliance from losses claimed by these sole proprietors until the latter half of calendar year 2015. IRS plans to finish all audits in 2015. Resource constraints created classification and re-programming adjustments and delayed "perfection" of the TY09 and TY10 study data until the Summer 2015. IRS plans to perfect the TY2011 study data by Spring 2016.
Recommendation: In order to better assess whether changes are needed in the way IRS administers activities not engaged in for profit provisions, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue should take steps to estimate the extent of activities not engaged in for profit noncompliance from its ongoing research programs.
Agency Affected: Department of the Treasury: Internal Revenue Service
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: IRS has provided a preliminary update on revisions to its information systems which capture and analyze the results of all individual income tax examinations. According to IRS, additional codes were added to identify whether examiners considered not for profit issues during individual income tax examinations. GAO has requested additional supporting documentation related to these changes. In February 2010, IRS modified the software used to record and analyze income tax examination results. Codes were added that identified whether not-for-profit activities were considered during the examination. From February 2010 to the end of fiscal year 2010, these not-for-profit activities codes were cited 621 times during examinations.
Recommendation: In order to better assess whether changes are needed in the way IRS administers activities not engaged in for profit provisions, the Commissioner of Internal Revenue should take steps to collect information on examinations of activities not engaged in for profit issues from the compliance program.

It's time to start the Redszone top 40 prospects poll. There will be three days in between each poll...
I chose Alonso. I also considered Frazier, Leake, and Yorman but I went with Alonso. The broken bone in his hand held him back some but he still had a solid season (.829 OPS in AA, including a 1.021 OPS in his final 50+ plate appearances). I still see him as a future .300/.400/.550 type of player. I expect him to begin 2010 in Louisville and push for a callup sometime during the summer. The only question is will the Reds trade Alonso or move Votto to left field?
IMO, the only guys that really should be considered for the #1 spot is Alonso or Leake.
Everyone else can fight for 3rd and beyond.
Yonder Alonso.
Pro's - Elite plate discipline. Power to all fields. Projects to hit for a strong average.
Con's - Stuck at first base defensively. Hasn't had a great line against lefties in his 71 career pro AB's versus left handers (13 walks and 15 strikeouts).
The guy looks like a legit option to be .300/.400/.500 each year for a long time. Easy choice for me.
Alonso, easy enough.
IMO, the Reds top three prospects are Alonso, Francisco and Frazier - in whatever order you choose. I saw Leake pitch in the CWS and I can't put him that high before one pro inning. Yorman is another candidate but is so young and raw that I can't rate him above guys with a track record.
I've stuck up for Francisco for over two years and will try to avoid the same old debate. He's the impact guy, the one managers and pitchers will fear. Frazier is very consistent. Alonso has high end talent, hasn't shown power, supposedly doesn't hit lefties. Looks like a very patient high OBP hitter though who uses the whole field.
I don't think guys like Heisey or Wood have the tools to match the top three, from what I've read and based on certain of their stats. They have skills, don't think they have as much upside. I like Cozart, but not in the top five.
So for me it's Alonso, Francisco, and Frazier in whatever order you choose. I'm going with JF because he's the youngest, has come the farthest, and was very impressive with the Reds in September.
He's not a wild swinger, I'm not that worried about his walk rate at this stage. Sweet complimented his LF instincts. And he's a powerhouse at the plate.
Alonso is likely the only potential impact guy in the high minors. Easy number 1 choice. After this it is much less clear. For me the drop is so big that the next two choices are based more on potential than production (Leake and Rodriguez). The next several are likely role players in the big leagues (but guys like FRancisco, Frazier and Heisey could be really good ones). Cozart is the wild card for me. If he can hit like he has shown flashes of, he could be a productive every day SS and that is pretty valuable.
Beats the heck out of all those years when the Reds had to sign guys for $2 or $3 Million per year to be role players.
How does Alonso grade out/differ/project as a prospect to Jay Bruce? More or less power overall? More or less power to the opposite field?
I usually use the baseball cube scores as a good reference point, but I enjoy your posts on matters like this. Wanted to see what you had to say.
Mike Leake hasn't pitched a professional inning yet, but he has pitched at the highest level of college competition with great success. He is, by all accounts, a very polished and mature pitcher, and his path to the bigs isn't blocked, as Alonso's is. He gets my vote.
I'm in the Francisco camp. His lack of walks don't bother me too much as long as he maintains a high average, because he'll be hitting in an RBI position of the lineup (and walks don't drive in runs). I just think the guy is a gifted hitter. He seems to get better at every level, and even showed signs of that in Cincinnati in September. He handled off-speed stuff. He walked. He showed his power. It was, of course, an absurdly small sample, but it was also consistent with his patterns of improvement. And he's very young. Now, his defense is another matter. I believe he's better than he demonstrated last year, but it still gives me pause.
I also like Frazier for his makeup. Something about Alonso hasn't lit my fire yet.
Yorman for me. Advanced skills defensively, especially for his age, plays the premier OF position, has room to grow and could see time in Dayton next year. Personally, I'd consider starting him at Dayton, despite the .600 OPS he put up at Billings. I'd consider it, though I'm not sure I would actually do it. You don't want him developing bad habits like overswinging and losing patience. He may have the highest ceiling in the org. as an overall player.
Alonso. I've got him pencilled in at 1b in Cinti in July. Team guy Votto, who wants to win, to LF.
Easy choice for me in Yonder Alonso as he is clearly the only elite prospect in our system. Frazier would have been considered if he could play shortstop adequately and had Stewart not been traded he would have been considered as well. Francisco has too many holes and Leake is a #3 starter, while yorman, duran and soto are far from being ready. Alonso has the highest floor of all of our prospects and a high ceiling as well.

44 year old man | Miami, FL, USA | Seeking men 25-45 within 50 miles
Nice masculine guy looking for same.
I am looking for a monogamous relationship. Almost all of my friends are straight. I love to be with my family and friends, just doing regular day to day stuff. Everyone says that I am extremely masculine and I've got street creds to prove it... JK ....(no really, I do have creds).... Anyways, although I was born here, I am not the typical Miami person (pepe chulo o pepito de Hialeah). I was in the military for many years (active and reserve (USAF)), been in war, traveled and have lived all over the US, and to be honest there is no place like Miami. I am looking for a person who is willing to be with my family, friends and me (and visa versa). My job does take a bit of my time and although it's a known profession, the position is a bit different than, lets say, an employee (for instance) of mine, but it also lets me to be super flexible. I'm hallf Cuban and half Puertorican. Kinda a homebody and a bit (un poquito) geeky (just a bit). Like to play video games. I can fix almost anything, including, pluming, electrical, A/C, advanced robotics and cars. I get mesmerized with the History channel, TLC and I use to like HGTV until they started showing crap that I can't even afford, even with this kinda of salary for a single guy like me (I mean come on). Well to be honest I adapt to who I am with....... Really, I just want to meet a normal guy here in SoFlo, for once.

Within the U.S. Department of State, there is an office known as the OpCenter. It is located in the office of the secretary of state and is staffed around the clock (24/7) by seasoned foreign service officers.
The OpCenter has direct lines of communication to all American missions around the world.
Its function is to be sensitive to any threat to American interests wherever they might arise. The OpCenter has direct secure communication lines to the White House Situation Room, the National Military Command Center at the Pentagon and the CIAs OpCenter.
Having worked as a watch officer at the OpCenter, I know that any information that indicates a threat to the safety of American citizens overseas is passed on to the other agencies mentioned above.
If a significant message concerning American interests is received, it is the watch officers job to ensure these other agencies are informed. Communications from the U.S. embassy in Tripoli and the U.S. consulate in Benghazi on Sept. 11, 2012, and earlier, would have been passed on instantly.
My point is the White House and the president, through the Situation Room, are provided meaningful information on world events on a continuing basis.
There can be no doubt that all messages emanating from Benghazi and Tripoli on the invasion of American grounds and the murder of our four dedicated Americans, including an ambassador, were received by the White House as they were transmitted.
It is reasonable to assume President Obamas director of national intelligence, James Clapper, read these messages in the Situation Room, particularly because of the hostile climate that existed in Libya.
Chris Stevens was a good old-school diplomat. He reached out to local people honestly and they accepted him personally.
I commend him for doing the tough job of availing himself to the people of Libya and elsewhere where he served. Thats the job of an effective diplomat.
We lost one of our best.
There are many questions that need to be answered.
First and foremost, what was going on in Washington while our consulate was under attack?
Why the delay in labeling the attack as terrorism, when it was immediately known thats what it was?
September 11 is the anniversary of the disastrous events of 9/11/01. Chris Stevens was ambassador to Libya based at the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, protected by U.S. Marine guards. What was so important that he needed to be in Benghazi on such an infamous anniversary, with our consulate so inadequately protected?
Why werent Marine guards posted in Benghazi in the first place?
In such a tumultuous environment, why did the state department refuse requests to enhance security at our consulate?
Given prior threats, why did the state department allow Amb. Stevens to proceed to Benghazi at that particular time?
When an ambassador moves about, away from the embassy, the state department is always informed and is responsible for raising questions if there are perceived problems.
This also points to an abysmal lapse in management that caused a fatal breach in a trust that all diplomats hold Washington accountable in supporting them when on a mission representing the president and the United States.

Wildlife World Zoo & AquariumRead MoreThe giraffe smells a food pellet. He pokes his head just over the railing and starts sniffing for the guest holding his treat. Not far off, some brightly plumed parrots land on another visitor?s arm, spying the tasty apple slices in her hand. Though you can?t get this close to every animal at Wildlife World Zoo & Aquarium?such as the lions and the wild Larry Fitzgeralds?the keepers do facilitate animal-human exchanges as often as possible with the zoo?s more than 600 species. They also give visitors novel views of some exhibits by welcoming them aboard the Skyride, the Australian boat ride, and the African train safari. The adjacent aquarium adds to the zoo?s impressive animal collection, housing more than 75 exhibits and enough water to start a new earth colony. Further attractions include a children?s petting zoo, daily shows, and a baby-animal nursery. At the 15-acre Safari Park, guests stroll or ride the tram through animal habitats, where they can spy on species that live on the other side of the equator. Wildlife World also features two restaurants where guests can feed themselves and their own helpless progeny.16501 W Northern Ave.Litchfield Park, AZ US
Phoenix ZooRead MoreThe dream of philanthropists Robert and Nancy Maytag became reality in 1962, and today, the Phoenix Zoo has welcomed more than 43 million guests onto its 125 acre oasis in the Papago Park neighborhood. It's easy to spend an entire day here, strolling the 2.5 miles of walking trails or taking the tram, meeting and greeting more than 1,400 animals residing in state-of-the-art, humane habitats designed to mimic life in the wild. Some 30 species are endangered or threatened, including creatures being brought back to sustainable numbers like the Arabian Oryx, Black-footed ferrets, Chiricahua leopard frogs, narrow-headed garter snake, thick-billed parrots and Mexican wolves. Many critters enjoy the sunshine hours, but to best see the nocturnal natives, visitors will want to sign up for Twilight or Night Camp flashlight tours.455 N Galvin PkwyPhoenix, AZ US
Walking M FarmsRead MoreAnimal lovers can make their next gathering extra special and avoid wrangling the neighborhood's stray cats by bringing the menagerie to them. Walking M Farms provides mobile petting zoos and pony rides, which are perfect for parties. Up to 12 types of friendly and cared-for animals, including bunnies, pigs, ducks, and even a miniature horse, greet guests young and old. Whether organizing a horse-drawn hayride or a pig race, Walking M Farms carefully sets up and takes down each special event, ensuring hosts and guests alike can enjoy their time with the animals instead of cleaning up after any hard-partying chickens.8357 East Warner RoadMesa, AZ US
Heritage Park Zoological SanctuaryRead MoreHeritage Park and its volunteers are dedicated to the conservation and protection of wildlife, caring for more than 150 indigenous and exotic mammals, reptiles, and birds in a 10-acre haven. Many of Heritage Park's animals were previously injured, abandoned, or marked with a human imprint that prevents them from rejoining their packs without bringing personalized coffee mugs for everyone. While prowling through the sanctuary, visitors might spy a mountain lion that was kept as a pet, a black bear that was orphaned by his mother, or a fox rescued from a swimming pool. Emus, tarantulas, and ring-tailed lemurs also run free in their habitats, serenading onlookers with their wild cries. Heritage Park also plays an important role in the Association of Zoos & Aquariums' Species Survival Plan, granting asylum to critically endangered Mexican gray wolves, which are being reintroduced into the wild after a 20-year absence. The zoological sanctuary is open every day, with extended hours from May 1 to October 31 to give guests a chance to see animals that are usually out running errands during business hours.1403 Heritage Park Rd.Prescott, AZ US
Deb's DragonsRead MoreMany creatures are simply misunderstood. Just because they're a little creepy, a little crawly, or perhaps just a bit slimy and prone to swallowing mice whole, some people get frightened. But when a child touches their first tarantula, stares a crestie gecko in its big orange eye, or feels the soothing wrap of a python, those fears flourish into open-eyed wonder and fascination that can't be leashed. Since 2002, Deb's Dragons has been inciting the awe of Greater Arizona and Southern California residents with their menagerie of exotic species culled from six continents. In interactive shows that entrance all ages, they liven up events such as birthday parities, classroom assemblies, and even corporate and team building exercises. Every showcase of lizards, bugs, dragons, constrictors, and tortoises is steered by informative wranglers who illuminate the creature's wonders and dispel misconceptions about why hissing cockroaches hiss and why gopher snakes snub moles at parties.W Maya DrPeoria, AZ US
Arabian Horse Association of ArizonaRead MoreIn 1955, 50 horses and their handlers gathered on the grounds of the Arizona Biltmore Hotel for the first Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show. Over the next 58 years, the event moved twice?first to Paradise Park, then to WestWorld?and grew to nearly 2,500 participants. Today, the 450 members of the Arabian Horse Association of Arizona, which was incorporated the same year as the horse show, help to oversee the annual flagship event. Many of the members also serve as competition judges, work to foster youth participation in the equestrian arts, and raise awareness about which tiny hats look best on thoroughbreds. The annual Scottsdale Arabian Horse Show draws competitors from local Arizona farms and across the country. The showcase gathers thousands of horse enthusiasts for seminars, competitions, galas, international cuisine, and more than 300 vendors. Though the Arabian Horse Association of Arizona holds the show as its main event, it also oversees the Arabian Breeder Finals, a halter and breeding showcase; the annual qualifying America Cup Championship; and yearly endurance rides and stallion auctions.7762 E Gray RdScottsdale, AZ US

Lagos - Travel and Tourism
There must be a reason that Lagos is the second most populous city in Africa.
Go to the private beaches as much as you can.
The weather is fairly stable throughout the year.
All foreigners require a visa to enter Nigeria regardless of the length of the stay.
There is no better way to experience the diversity and richness of Africa's people, cultures, and landscapes than through video. [caption id="attachment_13070" align="alignnone" width="500"] Photo Credit :- Flickr[/caption]
When traveling between cities in Nigeria, it is best to start the journey early and arrive before nightfall, especially if you are traveling by bus or car.
Plan to have a car or a driver so that you can get the most out of your stay and move around easily

Originally written on Patriots Life | Last updated 10/14/12
For anyone that missed this news on twitter last night, Hightower and Edelman are officially out. Though neither is a surprise, Edelman is the lesser of the two and probably the least impactful.Hightower on the other hand was off to a great start to his rookie season, but his hamstring injury has now sidelined him for two straight weeks. Look for Bobby Carpenter to get the start here, as he was recently brought on for insurance.The Hightower thing is a little puzzling because he's been consistently practicing the past two weeks, perhaps he just hasn't looked healthy enough with his injury to get on the field? Hopefully he returns soon. ESPNBoston.comRookie linebacker Dont'a Hightower and fourth-year wide receiver Julian Edelman have been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Seahawks.Hightower, who has been limited with a hamstring injury, will miss his second straight game. His top backup, Tracy White (foot), is also out, so the Patriots are thin on the strong side.One possibilit...

According to Peter Moore offline only games are off the table at EA from now on.
EA COO Peter Moore has stated at Gamescom 2013 last week, "We don't ship a game at EA that is offline." Speaking to Engadget , he said, "It just doesn't happen," and emphasized "we don't deliver offline experiences."
Here is the source article: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2013/08/26/ea-we-dont-ship-a-game-at-ea-that-is-offline
From the wording at the end
Speaking about FIFA and Battlefield, Moore expressed that both franchises "have free-to-play options depending on where you are in the world.... The ability for you to be able to interact with those franchises on a free-to-play basis has got to be part and parcel to every major franchise we do now." He continued to say this is "very important to Electronic Arts" regardless of "how much money you've got in your wallet and where you are in the world."
I was left the impression that EA is thinking of going the direction of Activision Blizzard, and charge for a membership to some elite online service for some of their games, for example Madden and FIFA, similar to Call of Duty Elite. Although it is true that there is the microtransactions model system implemented in the last FIFA and Mass Effect 3 in effect.
What do you think of this? Is it confirmed that next gen will be all played online?

31 year old woman | Alexandria, VA, USA | Seeking men 27-36 within 100 miles
I'm a fun, energetic girl who is comfortable with who I am! I am looking for someone trustworthy, honest and enjoys life to the fullest!
I believe that everyone has good in them, and it amazes me how God works through each of us differently. I strive to daily show others how they can be the best version of themselves, by showing them God's love. I hang out in DC on a weekly basis, building relationships with the homeless people. My goal is to show them hope in a world that can be so hard. I love to travel and have been overseas several times; including 2 years that I spent as a missionary in Australia. I enjoy being outdoors, and am a big fan of swimming pools and picnics. I feel like I'm pretty stealthy when it comes to paintball, but have bruises that might suggest otherwise. I have a pretty competitive streak, so you should expect me to bring it. Always. :) I have a head for trivia, especially when it comes to TV and Movies. I'm also an avid reader and I really enjoy live music. I love all kinds of movies, and if it is a good one, I'll see a movie multiple times in the theater. I will try any food, unless it has stewed tomatoes in it. I need someone who likes kids and who would entertain the idea of eventually having a family. I need someone who will cherish and respect me, challenge and encourage me.
Coffee and conversation , Dining out , Movies/Videos , Museums and art , Music and concerts , Travel/Sightseeing , Volunteering , Watching sports
Baseball, Basketball, Football, Other types of exercise, Walking / Hiking
I exercise 3-4 times per week.
Don't display my sign
I have Fish
I like Dogs
Middle of the Road
I love to travel! Some of my favorite places to travel are Australia (where I lived for 2 years) and Europe (especially Vienna and southern Italy). In the DC area, I love visiting the monuments, especially at night.
I love listening to music, like The Shins, Guster, Death Cab for Cutie. A few of my favorite TV shows are Bones, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, NCIS, How I Met Your Mother and New Girl. I enjoy going out and trying new foods!
I enjoy watching movies and television. I like going out with friends, but also staying home and reading a good book.
I love to read, and I read quite a bit, so a few books that I've read lately are the Game of Thrones series, A Discovery of Witches and the Outlander series. I also love the Harry Potter books.

New surveillance video from the Walgreens on Boonville Road in Bryan is offering a glimpse at a man who last week threatened to detonate a bomb during a tense hold up.
Investigators say a man got away with drugs from the pharmacy counter after he pulled out a knife and passed a note saying he'd detonate a bomb if police showed up.
Police say there were customers in the store at the time, but no bomb was found. The suspect had his face covered.
He's described as a man with light-skin and average height. If you recognize this man's clothing or mannerisms, you're asked to give police a call.

Vero Chicky meets the World Guy, walking to end diabetes
VERO BEACH - Everyone around Vero Beach knows me from all my pictures.
I love to take pictures, but most of all I love to tell a story and make a video to get it out to the people in Vero Beach and around the world (there's a little News reporter inside of me) .
A friend of mine gave me a heads up on "the World Guy," a.k.a. Erik Bendl, was walking on U.S. 1, so i jumped in my car with camera and video camera and went looking for the Man with The World Ball! He has amazing stories to tell and is walking for a great cause, diabetes.
When I found him, my heart was racing, thinking who is that guy and what is he doing in Vero Beach?
I jumped out of my car, while some other people were talking to him at the time, so I waited. Then it was my turn, I went up to him with a big smile and started telling him about who i was and I would love to hear his story. I think he is amazing. I went to Subway to get him some water amd a sub for lunch and water for his dog "Nice."
After I asked him if I could take some pictures and video to share on my Facebook, Twitter and Youtube. He said yes, with a big smile. I thought to myself how lucky am I to meet such a amazing man amd get to help him spread the word about his walk for American Diabetes Association.
My mother has diabetes along with lymphoma. There is always a reason why things happen and I feel this was a special reason. Thanks to my friend Brook Malone for connecting us.

But what of all those people watching at home, waiting for Ann to explain the cipher that is Mittens?
But Allen Barra says he remains a cipher for his actions off the field.
He is a cipher who has reduced his own party to near-cipher status.
late 14c., "arithmetical symbol for zero," from Old French cifre "nought, zero," Medieval Latin cifra, with Spanish and Italian cifra, ultimately from Arabic sifr "zero," literally "empty, nothing," from safara "to be empty;" loan-translation of Sanskrit sunya-s "empty." The word came to Europe with Arabic numerals. Originally in English "zero," then "any numeral" (early 15c.), then (first in French and Italian) "secret way of writing; coded message" (a sense first attested in English 1520s), because early codes often substituted numbers for letters. Klein says Modern French chiffre is from Italian cifra.
"to do arithmetic" (with Arabic numerals), 1520s, from cipher (n.). Meaning "to write in code" is from 1560s. Related: Ciphered; ciphering.

HE REINDEER QUEEN (2nd Release) profiles "Sinrock Mary" Antisarlook also known by her fellow Eskimos as "Queen Mary" the Arctic's wealthiest woman during the Alaska Gold Rush. Sinrock Mary's life mirrors the turbulent times in turn-of-the-century Alaska during the rush to mine the territory's gold. The daughter of a Russian merchant father and a native Alaskan mother, Mary, through twists of fate, amassed the largest reindeer herd in the North. As her reputation and riches grew, ne'er-do-wells and drifters conspired to gain control of her herd, but she outwitted them all. This unusual documentary, the recipient of awards from the National Educational Film and Video Festival and New York's Margaret Mead Film Festival, brings Mary's remarkable story to life through archival photographs, film footage and interviews with her granddaughters.
There are no upcoming episodes of this series scheduled on Alabama Public Television.

They each had their reasons for being a soldier. They each had their illusions. Goodrich came from Harvard. Snake got the tattoo - Death Before Dishonor - before he got the uniform. And Hodges was haunted by the ghosts of family heroes. They were three young men from different worlds plunged into a white-hot, murderous realm of jungle warfare as it was fought by one Marine platoon in the An Hoa Basin, 1969. They had no way of knowing what awaited them. Nothing could have prepared them for the madness to come. And in the heat and horror of battle they took on new identities, took on each other, and were each reborn in fields of fire....
Fields of Fire is James Webb's classic, searing novel of the Vietnam War, a novel of poetic power, razor-sharp observation, and agonizing human truths seen through the prism of nonstop combat. Weaving together a cast of vivid characters, Fields of Fire captures the journey of unformed men through a man-made hell - until each man finds his fate.

The overall impact of the foregoing on profitability is partially offset by savings in cost of revenues and SG&A.
Express Scripts originally estimated that adjusted EBITDA per claim (as defined in the attached Appendix) for 2011 would be in the range of $3.70 to $3.90. However, primarily as a result of the foregoing, the Company now believes that adjusted EBITDA per claim will instead likely be between $3.55 and $3.70, which represents an increase of between 11% and 16% over fiscal year 2010 reported numbers.
Express Scripts continues to expect that cash flow from operations will be between $2.2 billion and $2.4 billion for fiscal year 2011, excluding any transaction related fees and expenses due to the pending Medco merger.
In addition, due to the pending transaction with Medco, at the conclusion of the Company's previously-announced accelerated share repurchase program, the Company does not anticipate that it will engage in any further share repurchase activity until after the closing of the transaction.

NEW YORK (AP) — Strong earnings reports from Home Depot and Macy's helped lift stock indexes in early trading on Wall Street Tuesday. A jump in home sales and consumer confidence also brought buyers back to the market.
The Dow Jones industrial average was up 77 points, or 0.6 percent, at 13,858 as of 10:22 a.m. The Dow fell 216 points the day before, its biggest drop in three months, after closely contested elections in Italy suggested the country might be headed for political gridlock, which could undermine the euro.
Other indexes also rose, but not as much as the Dow. The Standard & Poor's 500 index was up three points, or 0.2 percent, at 1,490. The Nasdaq composite rose one point, or 0.04 percent, to 3,118.
Home Depot, the biggest home improvement store chain in the country, jumped $3.27, or 5 percent, to $67.19 after reporting that its income rose 32 percent in the latest quarter thanks to strong U.S. sales and the cleanup that followed Superstorm Sandy. Macy's results also beat analysts' forecasts, and its stock rose $1.43, or 3.7 percent, to $39.95.
Two strong economic reports also encouraged investors. The government reported that sales of new homes jumped 16 percent last month to the highest level since July 2008, the latest sign that the housing recovery is accelerating. Also, a measure of consumer confidence rose sharply, reversing three months of declines, as shoppers began adjusting to a payroll tax hike last month.
Investors will also be watching testimony by Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke, who heads to Capitol Hill to explain what the Fed will do to accelerate the economic recovery. Bernanke is sure to face questions about the Fed's bond-buying program, which has been used to keep the economy flush with cash and interest rates low. Stocks fell sharply over two days last week after minutes from the Fed's last policy meeting revealed disagreement among the bank's policymakers over how long to continue the program.

One of the most important keys to successful career management is knowing how your career interests match up with the real working world.
Careers and Six Basic "Types"
John Holland, a career psychologist, developed a theory that people and careers can be characterized by six basic "types." These types, or Holland Codes, are commonly referred to as RIASEC to reflect the first letter in each of the themes. Each type and corresponding preferred work environment are listed and explained below.
Your Holland Code will generally consist of three letters that correspond to your first, second, and third strongest preferences or interests. The hexagon below demonstrates the placement of each "type" in a visual manner and can be explained further by meeting with a career counselor.
Learning what your type is and how the types are related to each other is important to your successful career planning process. Counseling and Career Services uses the Strong Interest Inventory, a computerized career assessment tool, to assist you in identifying your "type," or Holland Code. Stop in or call CCS at 443-518-1340 to find out more about this helpful career tool . See below for a visual of Holland's types.

Jewish Shanghai: The Moller Villa Story
14 Jan 2014 Leave a comment
in Jews in China, Shanghai Jews, Uncategorized Tags: Eric Moller, Jewish Shanghai Travel, Moller Villa, Moller Villa Hotel, Shanghai Jewish architecture, Shanghai Jewish buildings, Shanghai Villas
If you plan to visit Shanghai, there is a building that you should not miss. Its official name is Moller Villa, named after Eric Moller, a Jewish resident of Shanghai in the early 20th century. When I had a seventeen-hour layover last week, I decided to stay there overnight—it has since been converted into a hotel. Located on South Shanxi Road in the former French foreign concession area, Moller Villa is a sight for sore eyes. It may seem out-of-place to the virgin traveler. In the midst of modern apartment buildings, shopping centers, and a lot of traffic noise—this villa is a tranquil place of relaxation.
According to local legend, Eric Moller built this Villa for his beloved daughter in 1936 after she had conveyed her dream of having a fairytale castle. Moller was a Swedish-British merchant who first came to Shanghai in 1919. After much success in the shipping business, he became well-known in Shanghai elite circles and a member of the notorious Shanghai Race Club. He invited many different architects to design the Villa to become his own private residence. The end product is a hybrid-fusion style that includes Western and Eastern architectural elements.
The building today still stands in its original condition, protected by the local Shanghai government. At the entryway to the villa, there is a plaque that explains its current status in Shanghai. The plaque states in English and Chinese that it is an "Important Monument under the State Protection." Not bad for an almost-decade old foreign structure. The villa itself is a mix of browns and reds intermixed with a layered-brick feel. The pointed rooftops give the boxy rectangular structure a much-needed softness by drawing the eyes from the ground to the Shanghai skies. Two traditional Chinese lions flank the front steps providing an interesting mix of East and West styles.
A small garden covers the area to the mansion's immediate side and back area—easily accessible from the front door and back porch of the restaurant area. A small creek flows through the miniature garden flanked by tall hundred-year-old trees. The wooden foot-bridge takes you from one side of the garden to the other—transporting you through the world the Moller family built.
Once you step inside the main hotel area, if feels as if you are living in Europe. The tall stained-glass windows are covered in nature designs of greens, pinks, and shades of gray and black. Elaborate crystal chandeliers reflect the outside sunlight throughout the check-in area. Lush upholstered couches lay opposite of the wooden check-in area—welcoming guests to a villa fitting for a gentleman and lady. Photographs of the Moller family, his horseracing, and the villa's stories in Shanghai history line the walls.
Next time you are in Shanghai for a 24-hour layover or longer ;-), try exploring Moller Villa and add it to your itinerary. It is a gem of a sight for the modern age.

Project allofasuddenpartJew: 2013 Recap
30 Dec 2013 Leave a comment
in Uncategorized Tags: allofasuddenpartJew project, Chinese, family history, Genealogy, Jews, Jews in China, Limmud China, Schusterman MakeitHappen
As the year 2013 comes to a close, I would like to reflect on the milestones this year for allofasuddenpartJew. From Limmud conferences in Hong Kong and Shanghai, traveling to Japan to visit the Chabad house, and walking around Jewish Lower East Side–I feel I have furthered my understanding of the Jewish people and beliefs.
- Limmud – A Hebrew word that means learning, I attended my first Limmud conference in Hong Kong and Shanghai. Made a few valuable connections from the Jewish philanthropy and non-profit space.
- Jewish Japan – Traveled to Japan (My new favorite Asian country) and spent Sukkot at the Chabad House of Tokyo. Many Japanese people are interested in Jewish people. Some Japanese believe they are descendents of the lost tribes.
- Melton Mini-School – After an initial Intro to Judaism course at the United Jewish Congregation of Hong Kong, I felt I needed to go deeper. I enrolled in the Melton Adult Mini-School course at Ohel Leah Synagogue and have enjoyed the teachings from Rabbi Oser.
- Chinese Studies – Continued my studies in relevant topics. I started to pursue an MA in Chinese Studies at CUHK to deepen my knowledge of China.
- Jewish New York City – Visited NYC to visit Jewish enclaves like Williamsburg and the Lower East Side.
I have to be honest, I haven't been keeping up with my social media as much as I would like. My social media stats for as of December 2013 are:
- Blog – allofasuddenpartJew (83 posts)
- Facebook – page under the same title (480 Fans)
- Twitter – account under the same title (285 Followers)
Looking forward to 2014–the year of the horse in Chinese astrology. The horse is a highly respected animal in Chinese culture–one that symbolizes strength, agility, and endurance. Even the German carmaker BMW's brand name in China is 宝马(Baoma), which literally means treasure horse, contains the character for horse.
Happy New Year 2014!

Brooklyn Hasidics, Jewish Lower East Side, and Rambam's 13 Principles
24 Dec 2013 1 Comment
in Uncategorized Tags: Brooklyn Jews, Hasidism Brooklyn, Jewish Lower East Side, Rambam Chinese, Williamsburg Hasidic Jewish Community
Only a few days until Christmas! First and foremost, I would like to wish my Christian friends a Merry Christmas 2013. In addition, I like to wish secular friends from around the world a happy gift-giving holiday. Christmas these days has become such a capitalist tradition, even in China where Christians are the minority.
Now back to NYC….
I made the short journey out to Williamsburg Brooklyn to survey the Hasidic community of NYC. Women wore head wraps and dressed in all black. Men wore black suits and had long curly sideburns. I walked around Lee and Division Street enclave areas and saw lots of kosher markets and restaurants. It was like a step back in time where clocks stopped turning. I would pass homes and the young children would turn to look at me, as if they are wondering what's she doing here….
After a visit to Brooklyn, I took a Jewish walk around Lower East Side of Manhattan. I stopped at the Tenement Museum and took a food tour–boy was that a great decision. Likely, the best tour I have ever been on. I got to taste pickles, cheese, bialys, and green-tea puff pastry. The guides at the Tenement were awesome and friendly–they made everyone feel at home and super welcome. A bit later, a few friends joined me to walk around a few key Jewish institutions around LES. We met at the Katz's Delicatessen, a place so famous there were lines wrapped around the next block. We stopped at the Eldridge Street Synagogue right before Shabbat and walked over to the Angel Orensenz Foundation after. Two exquisitely beautiful synagogues in Lower East Side's Jewish history. My friends and I stopped to refresh at a local diner. I made my way to Jewish Queens later that night–and to the La Guardia airport the next morning.
Last but not least, Maimonides or Rambam passed away today in 1204. He is a famous Jewish philosopher and scholar who changed the course of Judaism forever. It was he who created the Mishneh Torah, the widest and broadest Jewish Law available. It was also he who created the 13 principles of faith of Judaism. If you call yourself a Jew, per Rambam, you should believe in the following: (Source: Wikipedia)
- The Existence of G-d
- G-d's unity and indivisibility into elements
- G-d's spirituality and incorporeality (sorry Christians!)
- G-d's eternity
- G-d alone should be the object of worship
- Revelation through G-d's prophets
- The preeminence of Moses among the prophets
- The Torah that we have today is the one dictated to Moses by G-d
- The Torah given by Moses will not be replaced and that nothing may be added or removed from it
- G-d's awareness of human actions
- Reward of good and punishment of evil
- The coming of the Jewish Messiah
- The resurrection of the dead
I left New York City yesterday and am now in the southern USA spending the holidays with family.
Until next time, let's memorize these 13 principles! :-)

Gippsland looks to meet growing global demand with partial assembly deal as it prepares for turbocharged GA8
Australian utility aircraft manufacturer Gippsland Aeronautics is to sign a partial assembly deal with an Indian facility as it prepares to certificate a turbocharged variant of its GA8 Airvan.
The manufacturer is also close to signing an agreement with Rolls-Royce to re-engine the GA8 with a turbine engine, which will pave the way for an all-new 10-seat stretch version dubbed the GA10.
Gippsland expects to sign the deal for local installation of the GA8's 300shp (225kW) Lycoming IO-540 engine into completed airframes by the end of March. The move will come as the Airvan is scheduled to achieve Indian certification during April.
The partial assembly plan is in response to strong demand from India, which could push production rates past the 50 aircraft a year maximum at its facilities.
Currently the company produces 25 GA8s a year, with this to rise to 30 next year, but the challenge of recruiting engineering personnel to its plant in a rural area of Victoria has forced it to look overseas.
"We have letters of intent from several large customers in India subject to certification that could end up accounting for one quarter of our output," says Gippsland chairman Gary Wight.
Gippsland is also starting certification of a turbocharged version of the GA8 in response to demand from Latin American operators for better hot and high performance. A turbocharged version has been undergoing tests for nine months and Gippsland had hoped to get approval from Lycoming to rate the TIO-540 at 340hp, but has been frustrated by delays relating to recent crankshaft issues.
"We are optimistic we will get approval within the next few weeks, but if not we will press ahead with engine certification at 300hp," says Gippsland manager for global sales Marguerite Morgan. Despite the lower power rating, Morgan says the aircraft will still maintain its maximum power, at higher altitude.
Certification of the A$668,000 ($527,000) turbocharged GA8 may be achieved as early as the third quarter of this year. The company then plans to work on a turboprop version of the GA8, re-engined with a derated R-R B17F powerplant and the 10-seat GA10.

Mayor Rudolph W. Giuliani said the toll was raised to reflect the number of foreigners believed to have been killed in the terrorist attack last week.
After more than a week of holding out hope of finding people alive in the ruins, Giuliani now says it is all but certain that no one will be found alive. A total of 241 people have been confirmed dead.
As Giuliani led 40 U.S. senators, including Sen. Barbara A. Mikulski of Maryland, in a tour of the rubble, the first of about 35,000 National Guard and Reserve forces were called to active duty.
The call-up is part of a "homeland defense" drive as the Bush administration plans military retaliation for the terrorist assaults.
The Pentagon said 5,131 members of the Air National Guard and Air Force Reserve from 29 units in 24 states and the District of Columbia had been called up.
The order includes 100 members of the 113th Fighter Wing at Andrews Air Force Base in Maryland, along with four of their F-16 Fighting Falcon warplanes.
The Air Force citizen soldiers are pilots and ground crews who will fly random combat patrols at 26 bases around the country.
Army special operations forces are part of the deployment, along with Air Force commandos who fly aircraft and helicopters and take part in search-and-rescue operations, officials said.
Special operations forces, the elite units of the services, include the Army Green Berets, Rangers, Delta Force and Navy SEALs.
Fort Bragg is the base of the 3rd and 7th Special Forces Groups. The Army base is also home to the most secretive element of the Special Forces: Delta Force, the commandos who specialize in counter-terrorism and assaults.
Officials say that Air Force special operations forces are also part of the deployment. Those commandos fly MC-130 cargo planes that can move troops and supplies into hostile areas.
The deployments involve about 100 aircraft, including B-1B and B-52 bombers, along with surveillance, cargo and refueling planes.
The Army, he said, is "ready to conduct sustained land combat operations."
Defense Secretary Donald H. Rumsfeld said the military campaign against terrorism would require Pentagon planners "to fashion a new vocabulary."
