Arizona State Tax Federal Retirement document sample
Arizona State Retirement System 3300 North Central Avenue, Phoenix, AZ 85012 WWW.AZASRS.GOV Special Notice Tax Withholding Changes Effective Jan. 1 2010 Questions? email@example.com Phoenix (602) 240-2000 Tucson (520) 239-3100 Toll-Free (800) 621-3778 ASRS retirees' monthly benefit checks have changed due to updated federal and state tax withholding tables. Federal tax withholding tables were adjusted in April 2009 to require lower tax withholding as mandated by the American Recovery and Reinvestment act singed by the President in February 2009 and again for January 2010. Arizona calculates state tax as a percentage of the federal income tax withheld. Since the federal tax change led to fewer dollars being withheld, it led to fewer dollars being collected by the state. Noticing that state tax withholding revenue from Arizona taxpayers had begun to decrease, the Arizona legislature quickly passed Senate Bill 1185 which amended the amounts required to be withheld for Arizona withholding purposes and will, effective July 1, 2010, separate Arizona tax withholding from the federal tables. The first state tax withholding change occurred in June 2009, which increased state tax withholding using a new tax table. On January 1, 2010, the rates were again adjusted for both federal and state withholding. You will see a decrease in state tax withholding from the new table beginning with February 2010 pension checks. Effective January 1, 2010 through June 30, 2010 If this is your current withholding Your new withholding rate will be: rate: 0 percent 0 percent 11.5 percent 10.7 percent 21.9 percent 20.3 percent 26.5 percent 24.5 percent 28.8 percent 26.7 percent 35.7 percent 33.10 percent 42.6 percent 39.5 percent For Income tax withheld on or after July 1, 2010, the amount withheld will no longer be a percentage of federal withholding. The Arizona Department of Revenue is scheduled to provide new tax tables in the spring of 2010. Retirees do not need to do anything, as the tax rate will be adjusted automatically. However, if you want to correct any deficiency in tax withholding, ASRS retirees may go online into a secure area of the ASRS website, www.azasrs.gov, to adjust their tax withholdings. Retirees may also request a W-4P and A-4P to adjust federal and/or state withholding by contacting the ASRS Member Advisory Center at the number listed above. Retirees may want to consult a tax advisor to determine how these tax withholding changes impact them before making any adjustments to tax withholding.

Reader: If I feel like dressing slutty for Halloween, I will
In our daily Denver Blogs roundup, we pointed to a post by our Bree Davies decrying the "Halloween shaming of grown women" via slutty costumes. When we shared the item on Facebook, we asked if readers feel pressured to dress in risque fashion on October 31. This commenter says "no."
Morganne Foster writes:
Nah. Sometimes I feel like dressing slutty, so I do. Sometimes I don't feel like dressing slutty, so I don't.

Not where it was described!!
I booked the Ramada as somewhere to stay before our return flight very early the following morning.
The information provided lead me to believe that this Hotel is adjacent to Birmingham Airport. Well "Adjacent" is one of those words isnt it, like reasonable or value. In so far as This hotel is within the industrial complex which forms part of the NEC in Birmingham then in that way as the is adjacent to Brimingham Airport, then yes it is adjacent. In the same way that Wales is adjacent to England. There was no curtesy bus from where we dropped off the hire car and a call to the hotel simply suggested we got a taxi or there was a mono rail from Birmingham Airport to the NEC. Yes there is as it turns out but it is very badly sign posted. Additionally, having left the airport on the Momorail, iy deposits you at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC). This is a huge complex of buildinggs on a vast site. We followed some signs which optimitically said "Siare and Lift to the Ramada Encourt". This deposited us in the midst of some industrial units, no where near any signs of human habbitation. It was a cold frosty December evening and after two weeks of travelling around the UK, I just wanted to be at the hotel. We walked dragging all our luggage through a series of industrial units and after about a mile finally found the Ramada in all its splendid isolation, no where near the 300 meters from Birmingham Airport I had read somewhere. There is one poor quality food serving area, the room was clean but sparce, the bathroom was a wet area with the shower higher than the loo area, you can guess how that worked out. I bit the bullet and hired a cab to get us to the airport. That took 15 minutes on empty roads at 6.45 in the morning. So for a one off price of £52.00 My wife, Middle Daughter age 24 and myslef had somewhere warm and clean to sleep. But had I known before hand just how far from the Airport it actually was, I would have booked the Novotel or similar on Airport Hotel.

Great overnight stay before flight
Only paid £27 for the room and was pleasantly surprised.
Room was basic but spacious, although there was also a made up single bed in the room which was in the way. 2 large Christmas party groups also staying but we were not disturbed by noise. Evening meal was not cheap but was good. Easy to get to from the airport (5-minute walk).

1 night stay
We were seeing Russell Howard at the Arena, so nice and close as we live a 3 hour drive away, the room was basic but clean and warm double bed mattress a little uncomfortable but okay for 1 night and for the cheap price we paid.
The only couple of niggles were the plunger to drain the sink was missing only realised when I went to empty it and as every hotel the girls complained as plug sockets are never near mirrors

Comfortable stay
Stayed here after attending Christmas party in Hall 12 at the NEC.
Excellent value for money as got a good deal from late rooms. Room was clean, warm and comfy. The only negative thing that I would say is that the lighting in the room was very dull and dim.

Ramada Encore Birmingham NEC/ Airport
The lighting in my room was 'dimmed' and the table lamp did not work.
When I asked for somebody to check it out, change bulb etc., I was told they had no staff to do it, but they could move me to another room. I declined the offer as I had already unpacked etc. Also, the reception staff not very helpful, they could inform their guests that there is a 'public' bus shuttle service available near the hotel which takes you to the entrance to the NEC. Instead they inform you how to walk there.

Wall-E is biggest selling Blu-ray cartoon
Wall-E has become the biggest selling animated Blu-ray disc of all time as overall the disc release tally hits 1000 in the UK.
Blu-ray discs have counted for more than one in ten Wall-E sales, apparently a higher BD-flavoured percentage than Ratatouille and Kung Fu Panda.
Wall-E's Oscar win for "Best Animated Feature" at this year's ceremony is suggested as partly the reason sales have been high.
"Once you see Wall-E in high definition, you can understand why it has outshone many other titles in the Blu-ray sales stakes. It looks phenomenal and the viewing quality has to be seen to be believed", says Chas Ort, in marketing for Walt Disney Studios.
"We're thrilled that a family title is doing so well with its Blu-ray sales. Our experiences with VHS and DVD suggest that once family titles such as Wall-E start selling well on new Blu-ray, it won't be much longer before everyone is choosing Blu-ray".

BEIJING, Nov. 14, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- UTStarcom Holdings Corp. ("UTStarcom" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: UTSI), a leading provider of Broadband equipment and solutions, today announced that it has acquired a significant minority stake in aioTV Inc. ("all-in-one TV" or "aioTV"), a leading international cloud-based video aggregation and distribution platform. The deal gives UTStarcom access to technology that will bolster its rollout of subscription-based value added media services, while giving aioTV a partner with whom to offer its technology in emerging markets in Asia.
A U.S.-based company, aioTV has developed the first middleware platform that combines conditional access and content management tools for network operators to aggregate multiple sources of content into a consistent TV-like experience across connected devices. The technology locates and aggregates Internet and licensed video content metadata and ultimately delivers a common experience and content to viewers on a range of connected devices – any device that supports an HTML5 environment. aioTV currently works with many consumer electronics makers, cable and telecommunications service providers and broadcast partners in North America, South America, Europe and the Middle East to provide their middleware platform to millions of customers.
UTStarcom will look for opportunities to offer aioTV's technology in Asia where it has relationships with regional cable service providers and broadcasters. The aioTV platform will allow these operators to package and control a mixture of web content, licensed linear and video on demand (VOD) content into a consistent video experience that runs across connected devices in any language and on any broadband network. In the long-term, UTStarcom will also look for opportunities to jointly develop new service offerings with aioTV in collaboration with the Company's other strategic partners, such as iTV Media.
"We view aioTV as a key strategic investment and expect that it will help us realize our vision of becoming a leader in providing next generation media services," said Mr. William Wong, UTStarcom's Chief Executive Officer. "This is exactly the type of company we want to partner with as we seek to provide a highly personalized entertainment experience that is available on the devices that customers are increasingly embedding into their lifestyle."
The transaction gives UTStarcom a 44% stake in aioTV and makes it the largest single shareholder in the company. In addition, UTStarcom will acquire seats on aioTV's board of directors. aioTV's management team, led by Michael Earle, Chief Executive Officer, and Jim Anderson, Chief Operating Officer, will continue to set and execute aioTV's strategy and product development initiatives.
"We see emerging markets as some of the most eager adopters of next generation Internet-delivered video services," said Michael Earle, CEO of aioTV. "This strategic investment from UTStarcom gives us the platform to meet the shift in global video consumption and will accelerate our ability to deploy our technology in some of the fastest growing markets in Asia."
About UTStarcom Holdings Corp.
UTStarcom is a leading provider of Broadband equipment and solutions for cable and telecom operators. The Company sells its solutions to operators in both emerging and established telecommunications and cable markets around the world. UTStarcom enables its customers to rapidly deploy revenue-generating access services using their existing infrastructure, while providing a migration path to cost-efficient, end-to-end IP networks.

Malicious agents are moving faster than the speed of business. Even more worrisome, most companies are relying on legacy approaches to security that are no longer capable of meeting current threats. In the modern cloud, threat diversity is rapidly expanding, necessitating more sophisticated security protocols than those used in the past or in desktop environments. Yet companies are falling for cloud security myths that were truths at one time but have evolved out of existence.

Want to ask ESPN RecruitingNation national recruiting director Paul Biancardi a question about basketball recruiting? Tweet it to @PaulBiancardi using the hashtag #AskCoachB.
@PaulBiancardi Will Duke get two quality power forwards in Looney and Travis? Do both favor Duke and could they play together? #AskcoachB
— Blue Devils Digest (@BlueDevilDigest) October 14, 2013
Not sure if Duke will get both Reid Travis (Minneapolis, Minn./De La Salle High School) and Kevon Looney (Milwaukee/Milwaukee Hamilton High School), but it seems likely the Blue Devils will get one of them as Duke is high on their lists. It's too early for Travis and Looney to decide because both still have official visits left to take. Playing together is not an issue as both bring different skill sets. Both, however, have a strong knowledge of the game, understand how to play with teammates and know their roles. Both score in different ways and both can be consistent rebounders -- Travis with strength and power, Looney with length and bounce.
Looney beats you with versatility, rebounding and effort when he is not standing on the perimeter too much. He can make a jumper, drive with a spin move in traffic and add second-chance points with his post-up game. His length and size with skill are hard to match up with.
Travis has a power game on the blocks. He understands how to make and maintain contact and hold his position for a post-feed basket. When setting a ball screen he can pick-and-roll or pop as his range is better than you think. He works to be a very good positional rebounder and defender.
Don't forget Duke is still in pursuit of Jahlil Okafor and Tyus Jones as well as Justise Winslow. Soon this will all shake out.

So interestingly enough it was quite fascinating to watch the naked ego thing in a Napoleon style stance weaponry on the ready. I think you guys will get the idea anyway given we had established camp and could not be bothered moving we did not let such details worry us and had a refreshingly pleasant evening in the much quieter ...
Varna is a pretty nondescript town. Third largest in Bulgaria, with a large port and beaches. And a history of Mafia. We went to ANOTHER archeological museum. This one is known for having the oldest collection of worked gold in the world. Otherwise, a lot of Greek and Roman things. We had lunch at a Turkish restaurant along the pedestrian promenade, then headed back for some R & R. ...
The Grave Full of Gold
I hop the bus the following morning making my way for the seaside city of Varna. Perched on the edge of the Black Sea this city has been an important trading route for millennium with the first settlers arriving around the mid 5th millennium.
The real reason I have come here is to scope out the Varna Hoard- a collection of gold objects stated to be the oldest gold collection of in the world. The grave yard is about ...
Further north and back again
... shade and waterfalls. I've never been anywhere quite like it.
Maybe it's just us, but here in Bulgaria, we never seem to get the info we need at the start. We kind of gather it as we go along, and by the time we've finished, we know all about it. That sounds OK, but we'd enjoy it much more if we knew what we were looking at from the start.

Summary ofI am a professional services executive and business transformation strategist with expertise in building and managing profitable consulting practices. My core strength is building deep, executive client relationships that yield multiple opportunities within those clients. I manage risky and highly visible projects.
Prior to founding my firm I built profitable consulting practices for Arthur Andersen, Coopers & Lybrand, KPMG (BearingPoint), and IBM. I founded my international consulting firm, Pale Rhino, in 1996, and built successful
practices focused in IT consulting and strategy in telecommunications and healthcare, focusing on a range of functional areas including Customer Experience Management and Social-CRM.
My deep skill set is transferable across several industries include retail, manufacturing, utilities, financial services, and technology. I am a respected, principled leader with earned reputation for high level of integrity who thrives in international and multicultural arenas.
Education:MBA Vanderbilt University 1981
DuPont Scholar
B.A. Mathematics & Economics University of Maryland1978
University /- Guest Lecturer, Temple University
Speaking
Professional Experience:Pale Rhino Consulting
1996 to PresentDowningtown, PA
Position:Partner, Founder
Scope: International management consultancy
Launched a strategy consulting firm to $5 million annual revenue within 3 years and achieved 270% annual revenue growth with profit margins exceeding 43% and a staff of seventy. Industry focus included convergent telecommunications (wireline, wireless, cable, satellite, internet) and healthcare IT strategy (starting in 2009). We delivered consulting services in North and South America, Europe, Asia, and New Zealand. Seventy percent of revenues resulted from selling additional services to existing clients; thirty percent of consulting revenues came from referrals. I never lost a consulting client to a competitor or from having failed to deliver.
Starting in 2009, I developed a healthcare IT strategy consulting practice and added six new clients within the first twelve months. Published frequently in six prominent online trade journals including my own blog which has 46,000 readers. Expertise includes HIT/EHR strategy, Meaningful Use, the implications of healthcare reform, and its relationship to improving operations and the competitive landscape. In addition to my blog, I am a regular contributor to healthsystemCIO.com, HCPlive.com, HospitalImpact.com, and FierceHealth.com, and a frequent keynote speaker on a range of Healthcare IT topics.
Engaged by a group of hospitals to help them align their healthcare IT strategy with their business strategy. Deployed that strategy as the foundation for developing their strategy regarding Meaningful Use.
Hired by the CEO of an EHR vendor to develop a repositioning channel strategy.
Hired by the COO of a multi-billion dollar Swedish medical device manufactured to rescue a failing PLM implementation.
Engaged for six months by a business intelligence vendor to develop new strategic marketing channels.
Engaged for a year by an outsourcing firm to grow their telecommunications practice.
Personally consulted to nine of the top ten leading CRM/OSS/Billing applications vendors.
Consulted to CRM vendors' clients with a combined customer base of more than 200 million,
Created strategic partnership with the head of IBM Global Services Europe.
Developed a strategic plan for the client focusing on four specific areas: combating competitive threats, developing tactics to increase revenues of their core products, developing profiles of its subscriber base, and positioning the operator for launching paging and internet services.
Sold and led two-year customer service reengineering project to Spain's largest phone company, Telefonica. Analyzed, developed, and implemented the strategic IT plan. Assessed their call centers in Europe and South America, defined requirements, issued an RFP, implemented new processes and assisted in the consolidation of their call centers and platforms. Results included a 25 percent staff reduction, reducing call volumes by 32%, and reduced churn by 7%.
Sold and led disaster recovery engagement to Spain's startup phone company, Retrovision.
Performed an acquisition strategy for a leading international CRM vendor in New Zealand. Reviewed the functional requirements for a leading international customer care and billing applications developer to more readily adapt their application to meet the requirements of the convergent market. In addition, helped them develop a market strategy to penetrate the North American cable television and telephony market.

 Turned a three-day engagement in Brazil for a startup phone company into a multiple engagements lasting two-and-a-half years and employing thirty consultants. Defined and wrote all of their business processes and business rules.
Analyzed the functional and technical requirements for customer care and billing and call centers for a CLEC that offers local and long distance telephony, cable television, and internet. Developed a request for proposal, and assisted with the vendor selection.
A large North American cable operator had already completed analysis of billing vendors and was in final negotiations to build its own convergent customer care and billing application. The project included reviewing their analysis, functional, and technical requirements. Concluded that their requirements could be met more inexpensively and quicker by partnering with an existing applications vendor. This resulted in the client selecting a vendor who had not been included in their first analysis, and saved the client in excess of $30,000,000. Helped the operator define the requirements for a proprietary rules-based multi-media front-end.

Delivered best practices in customer experience management to a large cable operator which resulted in a thirty-five percent cost savings. Reengineered cable operator's call center and customer care business processes for cable television, digital cable, high definition television, high speed internet, and voice over internet protocol (VoIP). Reengineered the interface between the operator's installers and tech services and the direct sales reps to ensure it worked effectively with the customer care processes. Designed their intranet to ensure paperless operation for the CSR's.

For a large US cable operator I conducted an in-depth operations review at the system and operating levels to determine which operational changes were required to implement company-wide "Best Practices". The analysis provided the client with realistic ways to increase revenues and decrease costs, and it provided tangible recommendations to decrease churn, decrease the number of truck rolls, increase revenue per subscriber, and increase customer satisfaction.
