Submission Some Apple iMac's "Assembled in America"-> 1
whisper_jeff writes: A number of newly-purchased standard units are showing an "Assembled in America" notation. While the markings don't necessarily mean that Apple is in the midst of transferring its entire assembly operation from China to the U.S., it does indicate that at least a few of the new iMacs were substantially assembled domestically.

"As cinematographers, we are creators of visual narratives, sculpting depth within a two-dimensional frame. I use my understanding of fine art and architecture to create intimate spaces where scenes and emotions can play out, where stories can be told and experienced through the unique relationship of the viewer's gaze into the cinema screen. To me, it's really about the emotional impact of the image when you look at it. I find that film has an amazing capacity to communicate with a human being. Content interests me more than technique. As an artist you can reach a deeper part of yourself if you're not preoccupied with the technical aspects. Film has that timeless quality which is appealing, because I want my images to last and to have enduring resonance."
Jess Hall, BSC studied film at Central Saint Martins College for Arts and Design in London and New York University. His credits include numerous commercials and music videos, as well as the feature films The Spectacular Now, Creation, Hot Fuzz, Brideshead Revisited, Son of Rambo, Stander, and the forthcoming Transcendence.
What were your first steps along the path to photography and cinematography? Growing up in the late 1970s, we traveled a lot. My parents are both esteemed professors, and they often took us to galleries and museums. My sister and I resented it at the time, but I have a very vivid memory of seeing the Sistine Chapel for the first time. I was about 8 years old. I was incredibly moved by the beauty of the images, but also kind of curious about how they could have been executed. As a child, I was rarely without a pencil and a pad in my hands. I drew and I then painted, and that was just what I did. I was constantly in my own head and producing images. When we finished that trip, I remember quite clearly looking down from a historic village to an indigo ravine cleft into the Amalfi coast and saying to my parents, "One day I'm going to become an architect or a painter."
As a cinematographer, I suppose I have become an architect, in a sense, sort of a sculptor of time or a painter of light. I see cinematography as creating depth within a two-dimensional frame or the writing of visual narratives. My interest in fine art, architecture and literature has continued and grown. I use all of these elements to help craft intimate spaces where scenes and emotions can play out, where stories can be told and experienced through the unique relationship of the viewer's gaze into the cinema screen. I see my journey in cinematography as an extension of my life – I want to constantly extend my knowledge and capacities in the medium. If I feel that learning curve dropping off, I push myself to experiment in new ways and with new technology.
You mentioned your interest in how those images in the Sistine Chapel were achieved. Is there a connection there? In many ways, cinematography is this blending of science and art. The great historical works of the Renaissance artists in some respects also represented this. They were not working in isolation but functioned within and pushed the technical, cultural and philosophical boundaries of their epoch. When Michelangelo, et. al., painted the ceiling in the Sistine Chapel, they were dealing with some difficult realities, the absolute reality of a solid three dimensional space, an inverted image, and the politics of the church to name but a few. Leonardo Da Vinci was fascinated by geometry, physics and mechanics. Similarly, I think there is a sense of practicality that exists in a cinematographer that lives alongside the artistic. There is often a lot of problem solving and technical factors that you have to contend with. The goal is to keep that from becoming the main objective, to allow technique to support the idea and the artistic vision – and not the other way around. Real masters of any artistic medium are able to express themselves more fully, because the technique is not intruding. You want to become instinctual, and you can actually reach a deeper part of yourself if you're not preoccupied with the technical aspects.
Are there other aspects of your life that influenced your career path? The author Graham Greene says that the origin of a writer lies in his childhood. My father is Jamaican and my mother English – two very different small islands. I grew up experiencing two very different kinds of light. The equatorial light of The Caribbean is intense, powerful and high contrast. On the other hand, there was the soft, silver-gray light of northern Europe. Much of my work exists in the tension between these two sensibilities. I think growing up between two cultures put me in a position to interpret things in a certain way. You're not fully in either culture and because of that you're able to observe them in a slightly different way. It's a sort of dual consciousness, and I think that state of in-between is the perfect place to become a natural observer. You do, I think, need to be an observer of sorts to be a good cinematographer. So when I started observing through the camera, it just felt to me like a natural place to be. In a way, it came to me as easily as talking or walking.
In a previous interview, you said, "I always take a lot of inspiration from the place that I'm in. The quality of the light, the atmosphere and the architecture all create the character within the film itself, and I like to use that." Could you elaborate? In many ways, I am a naturalist in terms of my photography. It's always my starting point. I never really want to feel aware of artificial lighting. I think it takes you out of the experience as a viewer. I want the light to look absolutely natural. It might be spectacular, if the moment requires it, but I need for it to have a lot of integrity. I once read something about Conrad L. Hall (ASC) that he spent a lot of time sitting in locations. That is something I make a point of doing in my prep time. If I can get to a location on my own, and just spend some time there and sort of observe the light, it's very valuable to me. In my photography, I'm not just replicating natural light, but drawing from it to create a mood that has authenticity for the place, but also is appropriate to the scene.
You shot Transcendence, Oscar®-winning cinematographer Wally Pfister, ASC, BSC's debut as a director. Why was film important on that project? I've shot all my features on film. It's a format that I'm very comfortable with. Wally is extremely pro-film too. So it just seemed like the natural format. We wanted to shoot anamorphic. I wasn't impressed enough by any digital camera, at that moment, to argue for it. I think it was really a chance not only to shoot film, but to follow through with a photochemical finish. I think the film palette is just something that both of us really connect with. He wanted to make something both naturalistic and also to some degree stylized. We wanted richness, a texture, a depth of color and naturalism that we knew film could give us.
Is there an example on Transcendence where the place inspired you that way? Transcendence is an amazingly diverse film, visually. It's a real location film. There are so many different looks, so many different locations. We shot in Los Angeles for four weeks and around eight weeks in New Mexico. New Mexico certainly has a very distinct quality. I have to say, I didn't quite get it until I went to the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. I was kind of baffled by the quality of light and the infinite horizon. And then I went to the museum and I looked at her paintings. I obviously knew her flower paintings very well, but I didn't know her landscapes. And when I saw her landscape paintings, I suddenly saw something in the New Mexico landscape which was very distinctive and amazing. She just captures the subtlety of the color palette and the form so beautifully that I was re-inspired to go out in 105 degrees in the desert and look for those subtleties – and I did find them. So that was one place that definitely had a real impact on me.
But, overall, the film was very much about creating different looks for these different environments. The contrast between the organic and the synthetic was something that I got hold of as a major theme within the script, the source of its dramatic tension. I really wanted certain locations to have a quality that was not sterile. I didn't want it to be a sort of sci-fi/techno movie that felt sterile, because it's a story rooted in human emotions. Therefore, I wanted it to be a technological movie that was grounded in a very real world. Most of the concepts within the film are ideas that are currently very close to the zeitgeist of contemporary technological development and thinking. We worked very hard at creating this rich sense of location and used a great diversity of environments, from completely white sets to very dark interiors.
Tell about the decision to go with a full photochemical finish on Transcendence. I haven't done that for a long time. Digital intermediate, when it first came out, was an exciting tool that I was happy to get a hold of. It seemed like an opportunity at the time and I've always used DIs and enjoyed them. But I have been increasingly aware of subtle shifts that occur within that process, and I have been dissatisfied with some results. So I grabbed the opportunity when Wally suggested it. I just thought it was a great chance to use this more traditional technology and to do something very pure.
Are filmmakers too focused on technology sometimes? The digital formats change so regularly that you are, in a sense, playing catch-up, which is fine if you're getting the result you need. I'm not in any way anti-digital. But I think ultimately what interests me is content and not technique for technique's sake. So I'm not really impressed by a camera that claims to have however much resolution. I think there is something that's very solid about a film camera. When you have some absolute, fixed elements there that are not going to shift, you can develop an incredible amount of control. To me, it's really about the emotional impact of the image when you look at it. I find that film has an amazing capacity to communicate with a human being. There's something very – for want of a better word – organic in the texture of it that I think is very appealing.
Looking long term, I want my images to last and I feel with digital capture it does change quite quickly, so things often tend to be connected with a look of a particular time. I find film to be more timeless, and that's also appealing to me.
Conrad L. Hall, ASC said that the cinematographer's job was to push the film until it began to fall apart in interesting ways. That's a very interesting point, and you see it as a hallmark of most of the great cinematographers. I think one problem with digital as opposed to film is that one format is only around for so long. We're always catching up, in a way, trying to reach that state of technical mastery where it becomes intuitive. We talked about trying to lose the technique in order to transcend it. With digital, it often seems to be more about trying to catch up, execute technically, and streamline the process. By the time you've streamlined it, the next format has emerged. So you're not really living with a medium long enough to master it, to start to push its boundaries. It's like a great jazz musician who is fantastically technically astute. They know the ballad, and then it's how they deviate from the ballad, how you deviate from the structure once you know the structure. But with a medium that is evolving very quickly, you don't always have a chance to master the rules in a way that allows you to break them in interesting ways.

An animated Mike Penta (center) talks with fellow Manatee Creek neighborhood residents Chris Laite (left) and Dan Oser (right) during a gathering at the Manatee Creek Park, in Port Salerno, following the sexual assault of a 10-year-old girl in the adjoining woods on Sunday. Penta was joined at the gathering by his wife, Denise Penta (left center). The gathering was held so that residents could meet one another and develop plans for a neighborhood watch. "I have four daughters and a son and this hit home big time," said Mike Penta.
Charity Laite (left) was one of about 20 adult residents who gathered at Manatee Creek Park Wednesday evening to meet with fellow residents of the neighborhood following the sexual assault of a 10-year-old girl at the park. Laite and her husband, Chris Laite, have young children, like others in the neighborhood. "I think there should be some sort of surveillance here," said Chris Laite, who works with the St. Lucie County Sheriff's Office. From left are Dan Oser, Charity Laite, Bonnie Behrle and Sonya Coombs.

The quad screen — also known as the quadruple marker test or simply the quad test — is a prenatal test that measures levels of four substances in a pregnant woman's blood:
Typically, the quad screen is done between weeks 15 and 20 of pregnancy — the second trimester.
Results of the quad screen indicate your risk of carrying a baby who has certain chromosomal conditions, such as Down syndrome. The alpha-fetoprotein part of the test can help detect neural tube defects, such as spina bifida.
If your risk level is low, the quad screen can offer reassurance of a healthy pregnancy.
If your risk level is moderate or high, you might choose to follow the quad screen with another test that's more definitive.
The quad screen is done to evaluate your risk of carrying a baby who has any of the following conditions:
Depending on the timing, your health care provider might recommend other prenatal screening tests — such as first trimester screening, which involves a blood test and an ultrasound exam — in addition to the quad screen or in place of the quad screen.
Remember, the quad screen is optional. Test results only indicate whether you have an increased risk of carrying a baby who has Down syndrome, for example, not whether your baby actually has the condition.
Before the screening, think about what the results mean to you. Consider whether the screening will be worth any anxiety it might cause, or whether you'll handle your pregnancy differently depending on the results.
You might also consider what level of risk would be enough for you to choose a more invasive follow-up test.
The quad screen is a routine prenatal screening test. The test poses no risk of miscarriage or other pregnancy complications.
You don't need to do anything special to prepare for the quad screen. You can eat and drink normally before the blood test.
During the quad screen, a member of your health care team takes a sample of blood by inserting a needle into a vein in your arm. The blood sample is sent to a lab for analysis. You can return to your usual activities immediately.
Test results are typically available within a week.
Your health care provider will use your age, race and the results of the quad screen to gauge your risk of carrying a baby who has certain chromosomal conditions or neural tube defects. Other factors — such as your personal or family health history — also might affect your risk.
Quad screen results are given as a probability, such as a 1 in 5,000 risk of carrying a baby who has Down syndrome. Generally, the test is considered positive if the risk is 1 in 250 to 1 in 300.
Keep in mind that a positive quad screen simply means that levels of some or all of the substances measured in your blood were outside the normal range. This can happen for various reasons, including:
If your test results are positive, your health care provider might recommend an ultrasound to verify the baby's gestational age and confirm the number of babies. During the ultrasound, your health care provider will also evaluate your baby's growth, study the placenta and identify possible abnormalities.
The quad screen correctly identifies about 80 percent of women who are carrying a baby who has Down syndrome. About 5 percent of women have a false-positive result, meaning that the test result is positive but the baby doesn't actually have Down syndrome.
When you consider your test results, remember that the quad screen only indicates your overall risk of carrying a baby who has certain chromosomal conditions or neural tube defects. A low-risk result doesn't guarantee that your baby won't have one of these conditions. Likewise, a high-risk result doesn't guarantee that your baby will be born with one of these conditions.
Often, positive test results are an invitation to consider secondary testing. For example:
Your health care provider or a genetic counselor will help you understand your test results and what the results mean for your pregnancy.

LighTech R Version Adjustable Rearsets Honda CBR1000RR
Some say in order for something to be art it must have no function, Lightech begs to differ. Their rearsets are beautifully designed and manufactured in Italy. They have been crafted and perfected through years of sponsorship and technical partnership with MotoGP, Moto2, and World Superbike Teams. These are true art pieces, designed to go fast.
The R Series of rearsets from LighTech are in a class of their own. The rearsets themselves are crafted from billet T6061 aircraft grade aluminum for maximum crash durability. The large mounting plates have been machined with additional thickness in key areas to reduce flex. Special bearings from Sweden's SKF (the world's leading bearing manufacturer) allow for ultra smooth shifting and braking. Included in every box is a full set of grade 5 titanium hardware. Titanium is not only stronger and lighter than traditional steel or aluminum hardware, it is also exceptionally corrosion resistant. Last but not least, all LighTech R series rearsets feature hard anodized red secondary peg brackets, red R logo and carbon fiber heel guards with interwoven red accents. Any way you look at it, no corners were cut in the design of the LighTech R Series Rearsets.
LighTech's patented Track System Technology offers a one of a kind method of mounting the foot and toe pegs. Most rearsets on the market require you to remove the entire unit to replace a foot peg or toe peg. The Lightech Track System Rearsets feature a secondary bracket with independently mounted foot and shifter pegs. This system allows you to remove and replace either pegs without removing the entire rearset.
Note: Image for reference only. Actual LighTech Rearsets will vary depending on your make and model.

This past weekend the project to place at least one flower on the estimated 40,000 graves in Carbon and Emery counties has moved to a new level, both in the making of the flowers and the placing of them on graves.
On Tuesday the drive for flower making reached the goal of 40,000 as flowers continued to come into the Sun Advocate office.
It's now estimated that as many as 1,300 people have been involved in the making of the plastic flowers for graves over the last few months. Now some of them, along with other volunteers, are placing flowers throughout this week on graves, just in time for Memorial Day.
Many of the outlying cemeteries have already been decorated and many more will be done by sundown on Saturday.
A final push to finish take place on Saturday morning. It is anticipated that by then the Price City Cemetery will be finished, but that volunteers will be needed at the Helper Cemetery. The Sun Advocate will have a truck in the parking lot at 8 a.m. waiting for volunteers to come by and pick up flowers to finish that cemetery. Sun Advocate personnel will be there to help and also to provide any volunteeers who show up information about other cemeteries that might still need a little attention.
Once again it appears that Carbon County volunteerism has shown through, with work and respect for those that have gone before us and built this community.

Crew to host college combine on December 14
COLUMBUS – The Columbus Crew announced today that it is hosting a group of draft-eligible college players for a combine to evaluate some of the top young talent in the region ahead of the 2014 Major League Soccer SuperDraft. The event – by invitation only and not open to the public or media – is being run by the Crew's First Team technical staff on Saturday, December 14 at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center at The Ohio State University.
"Our region has a strong track record of producing talented professional players. We see this as a competitive advantage as we plan to build future rosters," said Crew Director of Soccer Operations Asher Mendelsohn. "The Combine is a first step in gaining a better understanding of the current player pool for the upcoming SuperDraft and an opportunity to build relationships with local soccer leaders for future player pools."
Players are selected based on Columbus Crew First Team scouting, consultation with youth staff and local college coaches. In the session, the Crew First Team technical staff will evaluate the players' ability to perform at the next level by conducting a series of diagnostics of their technical, tactical, physical and psychological attributes.
The Crew set a record for Homegrown Players in an MLS starting lineup on August 24, 2013 as four regional products Chad Barson (Akron), Matt Lampson (Ohio State), Ben Speas (Akron/University of North Carolina) and Wil Trapp (Akron) began the match, with each player significantly contributing to the Black & Gold's efforts in 2013. Other colleges in the region have produced some of the top young talent in MLS in recent years, including the last two MLS Rookies of the Year: Chicago Fire defender Austin Berry (Louisville) and Colorado Rapids midfielder Dillon Powers (Notre Dame).
The Crew begins the 2014 season at D.C. United on Saturday, March 8. Before then, the club continues preparation for both stages of the MLS Re-Entry Draft, the 2014 MLS SuperDraft and preseason training.

Submission FCC indecency policy headed for Supreme Court->
GovTechGuy writes: The FCC filed Thursday to appeal a recent appeals court decision that struck down its policy of fining broadcasters for profanity or nudity shown on live television. The FCC's brief argues the court ruling would make it almost impossible to punish broadcasters that show nudity or profanity during hours when children are likely to be watching or listening.

Political discussions about national security most commonly focus on threats of violence, such as those posed by nuclear programs in North Korea and Iran, or suicide attacks initiated by terrorist organizations abroad. But not all threats to national security are violent. Michael Chertoff, secretary of the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, recently addressed the cybersecurity challenge faced by modern counterterrorism organizations. In contrast to traditional violent attacks, cyber attacks may be capable of affecting a wider region by shutting down essential government services, stopping business operations, jeapordizing the security of financial institutions, and disrupting electronic communications (Chertoff, 2008). Cyber attacks are unique in that they threaten the social infrastructure of target regions.
Although major cyber attacks are uncommon today, they are increasing in frequency, sophistication, and scope. For example, Russia launched a denial of service attack against Georgia in early 2008 that restricted the access of many Georgians to information about what was occurring in their country. Additionally, websites associated with the Georgian government were defaced and government services were curtailed. Russia is not the only country capable of such attacks; the U.S. intelligence community contends that multiple nations currently possess the technical capability to target and disrupt the social infrastructure of Western nations. Nor is Russia the only nation willing to launch a cyber attack against an enemy; terrorist organizations such as Al Qaeda, Hamas, and Hezbollah have all expressed desire to initiate these types of attacks against Western nations. Although we can only speculate about the future, these types of attacks will likely continue to increase.
What can be done to protect against this unique threat to our social infrastructure? Chertoff (2008) identifies several actions that are currently being taken by the U.S. government, as well as actions that citizens can take to protect themselves. According to Chertoff, the responsibility of the government in preventing cyber attacks is to assess vulnerabilities in the government's civilian domains, reduce points of access to the Internet that allow for inappropriate intrusion, employ tools that reduce the possibility of an attack, and consistently monitor potential threats. For citizens, Chertoff recommends activating antivirus software on personal computers, changing passwords frequently, and avoiding suspicious emails and websites. Fulfilling these government and citizen responsibilities should reduce unnecessary vulnerabilities.

EDITOR'S NOTE: This article was originally published in the July 2010 issue of Kiplinger's Retirement Report.
OUR READERWho: Bill Segur, 60Where: Wilmington, N.C.Question: I've finally paid off my mortgage. What should I do with the extra cash?
Now that they've paid off their home loan early, Bill is wondering how he and his wife, Susan, should use the extra $600 a month. Bill is a registered nurse at a hospital and hopes to retire in a few years. He wants to maximize what he and Susan (also an RN) are socking away while they're still working. So their focus is on adding to their savings kitty.
Bill and Susan, 54, figure they have three options. They can increase their contributions to their 403(b) and 401(k) retirement plans, add more to their established traditional IRAs, or start up Roth IRAs. Bill appreciates the tax advantages of a Roth. Although there is no upfront tax break, all withdrawals, including investment earnings, are tax-free once you are 59 1/2 and the account has been open at least five years.
But Bill wonders whether it makes sense for him and Susan to open Roths at their age. "At this late date in our work experiences, do we start new Roth IRAs or add to our traditional accounts?" he asks. The couple have an adequate emergency savings fund and little debt, so they can comfortably bulk up their retirement assets.
Carlo Panaccione, a financial planner in Redwood City, Cal., says that Bill and Susan should pat themselves on the back for paying off their mortgage and committing to put the money toward savings rather than going on a spending spree. "People always say: "If I have money left at the end of the year, I'll save it,'" says Panaccione. "It never happens." Instead, he says, household budgets simply tend to expand whenever a family has money to spare.
Tax advantages. So, to answer Bill's question directly: It's not too late to start a Roth IRA. Because both Bill and Susan are older than 50 and their joint income is less than $167,000, each of them can contribute the maximum $6,000 (including $1,000 in catch-up contributions) to a Roth in 2010.
No matter how long you maintain the retirement account, the tax benefits of a Roth are simply too good to pass up. When you withdraw money from a 401(k) or a regular IRA, it's taxed at your ordinary income-tax rate. With a Roth, you can withdraw cash in retirement without paying Uncle Sam a penny.
And once Bill and Susan retire, they won't need to tap their Roth IRAs right away, given their modest living expenses, their income from workplace retirement plans and Social Security. Because Roths have no required-minimum-distribution rules, you can leave the investments in place as long as you like. "That money can just sit there and cook," says Larry Rosenthal, a financial planner in Manassas, Va. With income-tax rates likely to rise to offset growing budget deficits, the Roth stands out as an increasingly valuable tax shelter. In other words, it's a good way for the couple to diversify their future tax liability.
Roth accounts could also prove helpful to Bill and Susan's estate planning. They can leave the accounts to their two daughters, who would inherit them tax-free.
EDITOR'S NOTE: This article was originally published in the June 2010 issue of Kiplinger's Retirement Report.
When Warren Smith's employer laid him off earlier this year, he had to make a decision that all new retirees face. He needed to decide whether to roll his 401(k) into an IRA.
Smith, 62, had been contributing 22% of his salary to his employer plan. The company, which coordinates corporate events, now uses him as a contractor, but he is not allowed to contribute to the 401(k). "I didn't feel comfortable keeping my money there," says Smith.
Also, Smith needed to make sure that his savings would last for decades, and he didn't think that the six mutual funds that the 401(k) offered would do the trick. Smith, who lives in El Cajon, Cal., says, "I didn't have the diversification that I have in an IRA." He decided to roll his 401(k) money into an IRA and hired an investment adviser to help manage his nest egg.
As baby-boomers join the retiree ranks, they are facing the same roll-or-not-to-roll decision. And many middle-aged workers, forced to find new jobs after being laid off from their old ones, must decide whether to leave their retirement stash with the old employer or move it to an IRA.
For the financial-services industry, millions of these decisions will add up to billions of investment dollars. More than 50 million employees and retirees hold $3 trillion in 401(k) plans, according to the Investment Company Institute.
Brokerage firms and mutual fund companies are in frenzied competition to capture your business. "That old 401(k) isn't going to take care of itself -- do something about it," demands the Charles Schwab Web site. TD Ameritrade and E*Trade are offering up to $500 to buy your rollover business.
And, employers are becoming increasingly possessive about 401(k) balances. Until recently, most employers didn't want the administrative hassle of maintaining former workers' accounts. Now one-third of all retirement plans, and two-thirds of plans with $1 billion or more, want to keep retirees in the plan after retirement, according to a study by Casey Quirk, a consulting firm.
Casey Quirk partner David Bauer says retirees often have the largest account balances. "If retirees roll assets out, it reduces a plan sponsor's ability to negotiate with plan providers for lower fees," he says. More employers are trying to keep 401(k) participants by offering low-cost index and exchange-traded funds, target-date retirement funds and annuities.
Despite moves by employers to sweeten the deal, it makes sense in most cases for retirees and job switchers to roll their 401(k) money into a traditional IRA or a Roth IRA. Typically, company plans offer limited investment choices. "If you roll your money into an IRA, you have access to more investment options," says David Zuckerman, a certified financial planner in Los Angeles.
You also have the flexibility with an IRA to withdraw money whenever you need it. Not so with the typical 401(k). "Plans may restrict how you take the money out," says Rick Meigs, president of 401khelpcenter.com.
Withdrawal rules for 401(k)s vary, so check with your human-resources department before you decide what to do. Some limit the frequency of withdrawals. Others set all-or-nothing restrictions: A retiree who wants to take a distribution must withdraw all account assets. That would make it impossible to use your 401(k) to create a regular income stream during your retirement.
If you're looking for simplicity, consolidate all of your 401(k) accounts into a single IRA. With all of your retirement savings in one place, it's easier to monitor your investments, set appropriate asset allocations and rebalance.
It's also easier to handle your required minimum distribution after you turn 70 1/2, says Stuart Ritter, a certified financial planner with T. Rowe Price. With traditional IRAs, your RMD is based on the total amount in all your IRAs, and you can take the money from any account or any combination of accounts. If you have a 401(k) at age 70 1/2, you must calculate that RMD separately and take the money from that account. (There are no RMDs for Roth IRAs.)
An IRA also has estate-planning benefits: maximizing the chances that your heirs can take tax-deferred distributions over their lifetimes. Most 401(k) plans force heirs to take assets after the account holder dies.
Of course, beneficiaries can roll the inherited 401(k) into an IRA. But a rollover can be tricky, so you're best off handling the transfer yourself rather than leaving your heirs to deal with a plan administrator. "If they inherit a 401(k), they'll have to get the employer to do a direct transfer to an IRA," says Ed Slott, author of Your Complete Retirement Planning Road Map (Ballantine, $16). "You have to rely on the plan to do it right."
There are times when it makes sense to stick with the 401(k) -- at least for a while. If you retire or get laid off between ages 55 and 59 1/2, you can take penalty-free withdrawals from a 401(k). "You'll pay income taxes, but you won't have to pay the 10% penalty," says Slott. If you roll your money into an IRA, you must wait until age 59 1/2 to withdraw without a penalty.
It doesn't have to be an either-or proposition. If your plan allows, you can leave enough money in the 401(k) to cover expenses or possible emergencies until 59 1/2, while moving the rest to an IRA.
You might want to leave some money in a 401(k) if it is invested in fixed-income options with decent yields. If part of your 401(k) is invested in a guaranteed income contract, for example, consider keeping it where it is and transfer the balance to an IRA, says James Lange, author of Retire Secure! Pay Taxes Later (Wiley, $25). These investment instruments are contracts with insurance companies that offer a fixed rate of return over a set period of time. You cannot transfer a contract to an IRA.
If you have 401(k) money invested in guaranteed contracts or stable-value funds, check the yield and compare it with the bonds you could buy for your IRA. "You really have to take a look at the quality and the rate of the fixed-income portion of your 401(k) before deciding to roll into an IRA," Lange says.
Another reason to stick with a 401(k) is if you need protection from creditors. Creditors in bankruptcy proceedings and plaintiffs in civil lawsuits can't touch your 401(k). With IRAs, these protections are limited and differ by state. "If you are in a high-risk profession, it might make sense to leave your money in a 401(k) plan because it offers better protection than an IRA," says Evelyn Zohlen, a certified financial planner with Inspired Financial, in Huntington Beach, Cal.
If you're 70 1/2 and still working, there's an advantage to keeping the 401(k) intact. As long as you're on the job, you don't have to take RMDs from your 401(k) unless you own more than 5% of the company. With an IRA, you must start taking RMDs after you reach 70 1/2, whether or not you're still working.
Also, new rules allow your nonspouse beneficiaries to roll an inherited 401(k) to a Roth IRA. If you roll your 401(k) to an IRA, nonspouse heirs cannot convert an inherited traditional IRA to a Roth.
For some retirees, the staying-put strategy is simply the more-comfortable path. "Are you willing and ready to go out on your own and manage an IRA?" says David Wray, president of the Profit Sharing and 401(k) Council of America.
Another factor in your decision is tough to decipher: How does the cost of investing inside the 401(k) compare with what you'd pay if your money was in an IRA? You may have a hard time figuring that out because the plan's administrative and record-keeping fees are not listed on individual investment statements.
The first step is to check the expense ratio of each fund offered by your company plan. You can find the expense ratio, which is the percentage the fund manager demands to cover its expenses, on the fund's Web site or perhaps on your plan's Web site. An expense ratio of 1% or less is reasonable. If you invest in an IRA, you can find many funds with low expense ratios.
A new tool can help if you work at one of the 45,000 companies whose plans have been rated, based on administrative costs, investment fees, returns and quality of investment choices, by BrightScope, based in San Diego. Visit www.brightscope.com, enter your company name, and the software kicks out a score between 1 (the worst) and 100 (the best). "People often discover their 401(k) is more expensive than the fees they would pay in an IRA," says Mike Alfred, chief executive officer of BrightScope. Total plan costs for the largest plans can be as low as 1%, but some small plans charge more than 3%.
If you go the IRA route, it's up to you to hold down costs by choosing low-cost funds, for example, or a discount broker. If you want ongoing professional management, find an adviser who won't charge you more than 1.5% of total assets a year.
Before making a decision, Steve Goodno, 64, a resident of Orange, Cal., asked his company's human-resources department for a list of his 401(k) fees. Goodno, who is about to retire as a manager from a large engineering company, then compared the fees to what it would cost to hire an investment manager.
He opted for the IRA rollover. "The IRA was the more reasonable cost option," he says. Goodno says the fee issue was one factor in his decision to leave the 401(k). He also wanted more investment choices and control over his retirement plan.
When moving 401(k) assets into an IRA, be sure to follow the strict rules governing rollovers. You can use an existing IRA or open a new one. Fill out the forms with the IRA custodian. You'll also need to fill out forms with your 401(k) administrator. Make sure the administrator directly transfers the money in what's called a trustee-to-trustee transfer.
If the plan administrator instead hands you a check written in your name, it's considered a taxable distribution and the plan must withhold 20% of the amount for the IRS. You will need to come up with the 20% from other sources when you deposit the check in the IRA. You have 60 days to get the check into the IRA. If you miss the deadline, the IRS will tax the entire amount and you will lose the chance for tax-deferred growth.
There's a twist if your 401(k) holds stock of your employer that has appreciated significantly. In this case, you can take advantage of a tax break for "net unrealized appreciation," also known as NUA. When you take a lump sum from the 401(k), you transfer the company shares directly to a taxable account and the rest to the IRA.
You will pay ordinary-income tax, at a rate of up to 35%, only on the price the company paid for the stock. You will enjoy the long-term capital-gains rate (currently topping out at 15%) on any appreciation since you bought the shares. That bill comes due only when you eventually sell the shares. If instead you roll the company stock into an IRA, you will owe ordinary-income tax on all appreciation when you make withdrawals from the account.

Coupla observations about things while I was checking out the hall audience during the Prez's speech on 1/24:
1) Our country is being run by wealthy, old men and (some) women. Not old like in their 60's, but
, in their 70's & beyond. Great. No wonder things in the U.S. are so F'd up...out of touch people with no clue who go to bed too early to keep up with anything pertinent.
The "divide" between the two major parties (Dems & GOP) was on full display (not that it needed to be). In my opinion, there are too many standing ovations, but one side of the audience, with few exceptions, sat during every ovation for the President. Like they had a stick up their asses and were glued to their seats. They wouldn't have gotten up to show any kind of respect if their pants were on fire.

Hey people,
So I have been playing a lot lately those so called MMOG, or if you prefer massively multiplayer online games.
The concept is pretty neat, those are games where you play basically for free but make real cash. Here however the catch, you are eligible for the cash prize only if you pay a minimum... Isn't that lovely?
Anyway, I've tried a lot, like combatgrounds, mafiaboss until I found recently (2 days ago actually) a very nice one. Its called spaceinquest (www.spaceinquest.com).
You'd tell me so what is it so fantastic about this game that we've never seen before? Well, I guess I'm in love with this game because it combine strategy like risk, thinking like chess and most important its good looking!!
Its made in flash but certainly not slow, its very visual. I like the way you need to think. Not only short term but long term. You need to define where you want to conquer your first territory. And trust me, when its comes to choosing, you have a lot of pro and cons. Also you have some features that make the game interesting like a shield for protecting yourself. But the good thing is that you don't keep it forever, so the game is never static.
The only thing I can think of as general con for the game is that its a bit hard to play, but you get the concept after 2 hours of so by reading the rules. I've been playing a lot lately and I DO love it.
The other thing is that they reward you for paying (best supporter) as well as paying you for winning...
So check it out if you have some time, I'm now recruiting for them anyway :d
See you there maybe (player name is suips!)

From Major Peter J. Munson, United States Marine Corps: After the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, the United States sent its military off to war and fretted about post-traumatic stress disorder — but paid little attention to the fact that America itself was traumatized. Americans became angry and withdrawn. We are fearful and paranoid because after a strike on our nation we chose to focus on defense rather than the resilience and vitality that made America great. In our defensive mind-set, we bristle at every change in a world undergoing an epochal transformation.
We have little reason to be so negative. Certainly the rest of the world is gaining on us, but this represents the success of explicit U.S. policies. After World War II, the United States sought to create a world of economic interdependence and prosperity, hoping to banish the malaise that helped precipitate a global conflict. The prospect of rapid growth in the developing world was not viewed as a threat but rather offered the promise of robust markets for American goods and ingenuity. We were confident and focused on the positive tasks of expanding our economy rather than fearing change.
Collectively, we have lost that positivity — what historian Louis Mumford called an "inner go."
Have we lost our inner go?
