Here's the question you clicked on:
This about probability someone to help me on this !: A scientist inoculates several mice,one at time,until he finds 2 that have contracted the disease.If the probability of contracting the disease is 1/6 , what is the probability that 8 mice are required?
P( disease) = 1/6 P(no disease) = 5/6 then is a binomial probability problem 2 diseased 8C2 (1/6)^6(5/6)^2 I think... ages since I did this stuff
you have disease and no disease mixed up no?
I think the power 6 is on 5/6,and power 2 is on 1/6 because our combination contain 6 mice not contracted and 2 mice contracted , I think also that final element of our combination must be contracted mouse ; my suggestion is 7C1 (1/6)^2 (5/6)^6; I need a comment on this
yes i was think the same as you
thx for your help and comment ...

Yesterday, we blogged about a discovery that allows you to receive MSN Search Beta results via RSS. It will be interesting to see what Bill G. and company does with this feature in the future.
Today, even more MS search news. An excellent post on the SQL Full Text Search blog (thanks John!) alerts us to a few clustering tools, including a demo from Microsoft Research Asia.
+ Microsoft Research Asia (MSRA) Cluster Demo and Toolbar
You can either cluster results from MSN, MSN Beta, or MSN Newsbot using a web interface. Browsing inside of a clusters seems to work better with IE compared to when I tried using Firefox. A toolbar from MS Research Asia that offers direct access to the MSRA clustering technology is also available. It's also very easy to toggle the clustering on and off. Techies might find a paper by the MSR Asia team worth a look: Learning To Cluster Web Search Results. The research was presented at a conference last summer.
+ Dowser
An app (Windows, Mac, Linux, Unix) that not only clusters results but also locally caches every page viewed in your browser and offers change tracking. I'm looking forward to testing this one.
+ Top Gist
An app (download required, Windows only) that allows you to cluster results from several engines including Google.
OK, we've all got plenty to take a look at. I'm looking forward to testing these tools out and reporting back.
Final Comments
As web databases grow larger and larger and search habits stay pretty much the same, I believe clustering will become an even more important tool to help the searcher find what they're looking for since we all know that good results can exist after the first 10 (what most people look at). Clustering can also be an excellent knowledge discovery tool that can help you quickly "see" things that would be difficult, if not impossible to quickly piece together looking at one result at a time. In 2004, both Chris and I had positive things to say about Vivisimo's release of Clusty. At the Web 2.0 conference Google demonstrated some of the clustering work their doing.
I was also happy to see that the SQL Full Text Search post includes a link to Vivisimo's excellent paper: Needed: A More Selective Ignorance. It does an excellent job (IMHO) to succinctly explain the importance of clustering.
Ok, that's it. Go forth a cluster!

Hi paizo CS people
My amended subscription order for April (#3898660 according to my email) looks a little odd.
The duplicate CD has been removed (thank you). However, I thought I had preordered the limited edition #5 of the comic - not sure if it was removed mistakenly, or if I am wrong about me ordering it. Either way, I've just added a copy to my sidecart - if it's possible to ship it with this month's subscription that would be good.
The main issue is that it seems the shipping option has been changed from UPS International to standard shipping. Could you amend it back to UPS International, please?
Also, you're probably already aware, but it appears from my account that I'm going to get two copies of the next legends set.
Thanks for sorting that for me.

My Sleeping Beauty
In anguish I stare through flowing tears,
at photos of you from bygone years,
as here I sit, alone, and cry,
dreading that soon, I might say goodbye.
Day after day, I sit and wait,
for nature and medicine to seal your fate.
The swelling sickness which inflames your head,
fills my heart with fear and dread.
Are you aware, what fills your mind;
unspoken words you may leave behind,
undone things we never may do,
or life's decisions, that you still rue?
Will those eyes that sparkle and shine

Houston's status as one of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in the country has not gone unnoticed by the healthcare industry.
Houston Chronicle
A guest column on the Saporta Report offers a reminder of the many critical public needs that compete with transportation funding for state dollars.
Saporta Report
Sixty percent of premature deaths are accounted for not by medical care or lack thereof, but by social circumstances, environmental conditions, and behavioral patterns. So perhaps the medical field on its own can't prevent them.
The onetime steel capital's transition to an economy based on the healthcare sector has helped Pittsburgh emerge from the recession much quicker than many other cities, bringing welcome jobs and questions about its sustainability, reports Don Lee.

Rep. Vince Dean said Thursday he is getting encouragement to consider a race for Criminal Court clerk in the 2014 election.
He said, "I have had a number of people ask me to run for that position. I am looking at that, but right now my focus is on serving the needs of the residents of House District 30 and serving as chairman of the Transportation Committee."

We are two 76+ travelers who will be in Marseille for 3 days in October.
We plan to take the Petit Train to the basilica and while we plan to climb the steps, we read on the Marseille-Provence website that in 2012 a shaft was dug for an elevator to take you to all levels.
We would love to hear from anyone that has been on the elevator or knows if it really is there. It would be a total relief to us to know that we could see all without climbing steps that we don't have to
Also, are there steps from where we leave the Petit Train to the level of the platform that surrounds the basilica?
Thanks for your input.

Elevator or lift at Notre Dame du Mont in Marseille
We are two 76+ travelers who will be in Marseille for 3 days in October.

> Notre Dame du Mont..
You mean Notre Dame de la Garde?
Report Abuse
We were there in February 2013. We took the public transit bus there and we were let off in a parking lot; the Petite Train dropped people in the same lot. There was a lot of stairs just to get from the parking lot to the base of the church.
Asking my husband - neither of us remembers an elevator being available. But to be honest, we weren't looking for one.
I have looked at their website, no mention of one nor information re: handicap access. I suggest you ask them directly. Use this link to ask, if you prefer to ask in French, use Google Translate to ask and if you need it for reply.
Report Abuse
Yes, Notre Dame de la Garde. My map had the other name, but thankful you know the difference.
Report Abuse
And thanks to Debit DM, I have emailed them following the link you provided.
I thought I had looked for an email address before, but couldn't find one. This will hopefully answer my question.
There is a lot of misinformation out there.
Report Abuse
Can't tell about the new elevator. My last visit there was October 2012. Been there about 10 times at least. I did not see any new one but I was not looking for it. But I know there is one, nothing new, on the left of the entrance to the gift shop. That's already after up the stairs that DebitNM wrote about, on the same level as the main entrance to the Church is. I think there are about 2/3 sets of stairs to get there, each with at least 10 steps or more. The elevator next to the gift shop goes DOWN to a coffee shop as I vaguely remember. But I have no idea where/if you can get to the elevator from the lower level.
Hope you will get clear answer by e-mail soon. If they don't answer you, you can try to write to Marseille Tourist Office. There people will understand English for sure. It's located at the beginning of Canebière street almost facing the Vieux-Port so easy to visit where you are there as well.
Also try asking on Tripadvisor Marseille Forum. There are locals answering there so maybe you get lastest infos there.
Report Abuse
I was there in July and did not see any elevator.

Thanks to all. We are still looking and took kappa1's advice and put a question on trip advisor. We did hear back from our email to ND de La Garde with info in French (we used our google translator to read) that there is an elevator for all levels, just didn't explain where it starts.
Report Abuse
Marseille tourism replied to our email saying,"There is an elevator at the feet of the basilica next to the car park. No problem if you travel by car, but if you go by public transport you will have to climb a few steps."
Thanks again to everyone who replied, and especially kappa1 for your suggestion. I think we now have our answer and maybe our topic will help some others.
Happy traveling.

You are welcome Bettyboop. Very glad you got an answer from the tourist office. And thank you for coming back to report. That will be a help to the others with the similar situation.
> if you go by public transport you will have to climb a few steps."
That must be the first part of the stairs at the level where the city bus No.60 stops ( you get part of nice view already from there). It may be about 10 steps rather than a few but hope you can take your time and make it.
Report Abuse
Understand that there are still steps inside the church that you will need to use to see the other levels. IIRC, there are pretty narrow, winding steps in a circular fashion. I *may* but confusing them with other church visited, but I think it was here.
Report Abuse
And thanks again. We plan to visit the tourist office on the first afternoon we are there, so will look for more clarification then. I'm sure we can do some steps, just would like to cut down on the number. Getting older, but we can take it slow and easy. Looking forward to our visit.

This is most likely caused by a calcium deficiency or uneven watering. I would try using an additive like liqui-cal or add gypsum to the soil to correct this problem. Don't over water...

You can add the extra calcium by buying commercial stuff; or save up eggshells, crush them and put in a bowl. Add some boiling water and when cool water the tomato plants. The shells are still good for mixing in the soil too.

Former Tax Lobbyists Are Writing the Rules on Tax Dodging
Congress too often shrugs off its responsibilities to the public in favor of getting money from wealthy donors and corporations. So it is with tax policy, as reported by Lee Fang in The Intercept:
The secret tax-dodging strategies of the global elite in China, Russia, Brazil, the U.K., and beyond were exposed in speculator fashion by the recent Panama Papers investigation, fueling a worldwide demand for a crackdown on tax avoidance.
But there is little appetite in Congress for taking on powerful tax dodgers in the U.S., where the practice has become commonplace.
A request for comment about the Panama Papers to the two congressional committees charged with tax policy — House Ways & Means and the Senate Finance Committee — was ignored.
The reluctance by congressional leaders to tackle tax dodging is nothing new, especially given that some of the largest companies paying little to no federal taxes are among the biggest campaign contributors in the country. But there's another reason to remain skeptical that Congress will move aggressively on tax avoidance: Former tax lobbyists now run the tax-writing committees.
We researched the backgrounds of the people who manage the day to day operations of both committees and found that a number of lobbyists who represented world-class tax avoiders now occupy top positions as committee staff. Many have stints in and out of government and the lobbying profession, a phenomenon known as the "reverse revolving door." In other words, the lobbyists that help special interest groups and wealthy individuals minimize their tax bills are not only everywhere on K Street, they're literally managing the bodies that create tax law: . . .
The way that Congress now serves the wealthy and not the public is another sign of the decline of the US, IMO.
Elizabeth Warren's big win: The new, much-needed rule that could rein in Wall Street
Andrew Burstein and Nancy Isenberg report in Salon:
Are you in the market for some good news? While everyone is being told to follow the excitement of the 2016 campaign to the exclusion of all else, out of the spotlight but not far away, the Obama administration is calmly trying to enact lasting progressive change. In the Labor Department earlier this month, consumer advocates won a big battle, as the vast middle class was "gifted" with a new requirement being placed on the financial services industry. As Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren explained, a glaring conflict of interest has been resolved in the favor of people saving for retirement. No longer can investment advisers recommend funds to their clients that reward them or their firms; instead, they must, without exception, direct customers into the best financial products, with lower or, sometimes, zero fees.
In her inimitable style, Warren crowed: "No more pushing products that generate financial benefits for advisers, while draining the customer's savings." It's a very simple principle: "No more free vacations, cars, bonuses, fees, and other kickbacks." Her mantra, as we know, is fairness. Her legislative agenda is to introduce new legal protections for consumers. She is quick to point out that most financial advisers are ethical, and work hard to help their clients. But these individuals have, for many years, been forced to compete with "slick-talking" advisers whose recommendations reflect personal incentives and produce "terrible results" for middle-class savers, amounting, the Labor Department says, to many billions of dollars.
Firms must now make a full disclosure. Facing the music, the largest independent company that manages retirement savings, with $450 billion in retirement assets, right away cut account fees for investors by "up to 30 percent." Retirees win. The system can adapt. As Warren stated: "Americans are tired of a Washington that works great for the big guys and doesn't work for anyone else."
You know who she sounds like? Frances Perkins, Franklin D. Roosevelt's secretary of labor for the entirety of his presidency, and the first female cabinet member in U.S. history. She should never be forgotten. Having personally witnessed the Shirtwaist Triangle fire of 1911, a tragedy in New York's Greenwich Village that took the lives of 146 garment workers, a young and inspired Fannie Perkins resolved to devote herself to the cause of the American worker. As the accomplished business journalist Kirstin Downey lays out in her 2009 biography, Perkins pushed constantly for child labor laws, for safety regulations and a host of other fair labor practices. To prevent workers from descending into poverty, she urged compensation for workplace injury; she saw to the imposition of a minimum wage for the first time–which in the mid-1930s was around 45 cents an hour–and she pioneered unemployment insurance as we know it.
As compellingly up-front, if perhaps less pleasantly in-your-face than Warren is, Perkins told FDR when he was president-elect to think twice about naming her to the cabinet: "If you don't want these things done…, I'd be an embarrassment to you." She fed public demand. Fortunately for Roosevelt's own historical reputation, he was not afraid of a strong woman. It is arguable that, were it not for Secretary Perkins, Social Security would never have happened.
At the same event at which Warren spoke, Sen. Cory Booker put in his own two cents when it came to the resistance of established financial firms to the "best interest standard" that the DOL has given life to. The New Jersey senator called the previous system that for so long "bilked" investors of their retirement saving "an assault on the ideals of this country." Under the old rules, brokers only had to honor a level of ethical performance that was euphemistically called a "suitability standard," and Republicans predictably complained that the Obama administration was trying to place "an undue burden" on finance professionals. Booker, like Warren, would have none of that. "We're not surrendering to cynicism in this country," he challenged. . .
Good news is always a pleasure, and a kudos to Obama for this.
Stonewalled by NSA, Members of Congress Ask Really Basic Question Again
Dan Froomkin writes in The Intercept:
A bipartisan group of lawmakers is none too happy that the executive branch is asking them to reauthorize two key surveillance programs next year without answering the single most important question about them.
The programs, authorized under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, are called PRISM and Upstream. PRISM collects hundreds of millions of internet communications of "targeted individuals" from providers such as Facebook, Yahoo and Skype. Upstream takes communications straight from the major U.S. Internet backbones run by telecommunication companies such as AT&T and Verizon and harvests data that involves selectors related to foreign targets.
But both programs, though nominally targeted at foreigners overseas, inevitably sweep us massive amounts of data involving innocent Americans.
The question is: How much? The government won't answer.
Fourteen members of the House Judiciary Committee sent a letter to Director of National Intelligence James R. Clapper on Friday asking for at least a rough estimate.
"In order that we may properly evaluate these programs, we write to ask that you provide us with a public estimate of the number of communications or transactions involving United States persons subject to Section 702 surveillance on an annual basis," said the letter. Signatories included ranking Democrat John Conyers Jr. and a senior Republican member, James Sensenbrenner.
Sen. Ron Wyden has asked for a number since 2011; the Privacy and Civil Liberties Oversight Board recommended in July 2014 that the government provide several. In October, more than 30 privacy groups asked for an estimate and explained how easy it would be to come up with one. . .
NSA is refusing to answer because they know that Congress and the American public would be outraged by a true answer. It's unclear why NSA doesn't simply lie to Congress. James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, quite deliberately lied outright to Congress and nothing happened.
Obama, of course, is determined to keep government operations as secret as possible—for example, Obama shows no concern about poor responses to FOIA requests. It's quite obvious that NSA knows the answer, and if Obama wanted, NSA would answer.
At long last, time-and-a-half for overtime is restored for millions
Naturally the GOP does not like it. The GOP works hard to ensure that employees are paid as little as possible and receive as few benefits as possible. That's one reason I'm a Democrat. Nick Hanauer and Robert Reich write in the NY Times:
THIS summer the Department of Labor is expected to introduce new rules to restore overtime pay to millions of Americans — rules that require no congressional approval. From the fearful protests coming from Republican leadership, you'd think the sky was falling. "This mandate on employers will hurt the lowest paid American workers the most, by reducing their opportunities for a promotion or a better job," said Senator Lamar Alexander of Tennessee, the chairman of the Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee.
In fact, far from the right's end-of-the-world, Chicken-Little economics, restoring time-and-a-half overtime pay would return to American workers a protection they long had, one that made them more secure and productive.
Half a century ago, overtime pay was the norm, with more than 60 percent of salaried employees qualifying. These are largely the sorts of office- and service-sector workers who never enjoyed the protection of union membership. But over the last 40 years the threshold has been allowed to steadily erode, so that only about 8 percent qualify today. If you feel as if you're working longer hours for less money than your parents did, it's probably because you are.
Today, if you're salaried and earn more than $23,600 dollars a year, you don't automatically qualify for overtime: That means every extra hour you work, you work free. Under the new proposed rules, everyone earning a salary of $50,440 a year or less would be eligible to collect time-and-a-half pay for every hour worked over 40 hours a week.
According to the Economic Policy Institute, it would give 13.5 million more workers a new or stronger right to overtime pay — substantially increasing both middle-class incomes and employment. It's not as high as the $69,000 threshold it would take to return to 1975 levels, after adjusting for inflation, but it's a courageous step in the right direction. It's like a minimum wage hike for the middle class.
Everybody knows Americans are overworked. A 2014 Gallup poll found that salaried Americans now report working an average of 47 hours a week — not the supposedly standard 40 — while 18 percent report working more than 60 hours. And yet overtime pay has become such a rarity that many Americans don't even realize that a majority of salaried workers were once eligible.
In a cruel twist, the longer and harder we work for the same wage, the fewer jobs there are for others, the higher unemployment goes and the more we weaken our own bargaining power. That helps explain why over the last 30 years, corporate profits have doubled from about 6 percent of gross domestic product to about 12 percent, while wages have fallen by almost exactly the same amount. The erosion of overtime and other labor protections is one of the main factors leading to worsening inequality. But a higher threshold would help reverse this trend.
Under the restored salary threshold, employers would have a choice: They could either pay you time-and-a-half for your extra hours worked, or they could hire more workers at the standard rate to fill your previously unpaid hours. The former would grow your paycheck. The latter would increase your leisure time while directly adding more jobs to the economy. Either would be great for workers and great for economic growth.
Lower- and middle-income workers don't stash their earnings in offshore accounts the way high-paid chief executives do — the more the typical worker is paid, the more she spends on goods and services. When workers have more money, businesses have more customers; and when businesses have more customers, they hire more workers.
Whether through an increase in consumer demand or a reduction in unpaid hours, a higher overtime threshold would increase total employment, tightening the labor market and driving up real wages for the first time since the late 1990s.
Senate Republicans have introduced legislation to block the Department of Labor from implementing the new rule, arguing that it would hurt workers and employers. True, some businesses predicated on low wages and abusive scheduling practices may struggle to adapt. But the great thing about capitalism is that where one entrepreneur fails, another quickly figures out how to fill his niche. Adapting to new challenges is what successful businesspeople do.
When it comes to labor standards, Senator Alexander and his Republican colleagues always sing the same old trickle-down tune: . . .
Saudi Arabia: Not one's first choice, but perhaps a necessary evil
You may have seen this report by Mark Mazzetti in the NY Times:
Saudi Arabia has told the Obama administration and members of Congress that it will sell off hundreds of billions of dollars' worth of American assets held by the kingdom if Congress passes a bill that would allow the Saudi government to be held responsible in American courts for any role in the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks.
The Obama administration has lobbied Congress to block the bill's passage, according to administration officials and congressional aides from both parties, and the Saudi threats have been the subject of intense discussions in recent weeks between lawmakers and officials from the State Department and the Pentagon. The officials have warned senators of diplomatic and economic fallout from the legislation.
Adel al-Jubeir, the Saudi foreign minister, delivered the kingdom's message personally last month during a trip to Washington, telling lawmakers that Saudi Arabia would be forced to sell up to $750 billion in treasury securities and other assets in the United States before they could be in danger of being frozen by American courts.
Several outside economists are skeptical that the Saudis will follow through, saying that such a sell-off would be difficult to execute and would end up crippling the kingdom's economy. But the threat is another sign of the escalating tensions between Saudi Arabia and the United States.
The administration, which argues that the legislation would put Americans at legal risk overseas, has been lobbying so intently against the bill that some lawmakers and families of Sept. 11 victims are infuriated. In their view, the Obama administration has consistently sided with the kingdom and has thwarted their efforts to learn what they believe to be the truth about the role some Saudi officials played in the terrorist plot.
"It's stunning to think that our government would back the Saudis over its own citizens," said Mindy Kleinberg, whose husband died in the World Trade Center on Sept. 11 and who is part of a group of victims' family members pushing for the legislation. . .
Later in the article:
. . . Saudi officials have long denied that the kingdom had any role in the Sept. 11 plot [19 men were involved, and 15 of them were from Saudi Arabia – LG], and the 9/11 Commission found "no evidence that the Saudi government as an institution or senior Saudi officials individually funded the organization." But critics have noted that the commission's narrow wording left open the possibility that less senior officials or parts of the Saudi government could have played a role. Suspicions have lingered, partly because of the conclusions of a 2002 congressional inquiry into the attacks that cited some evidence that Saudi officials living in the United States at the time had a hand in the plot.
Those conclusions, contained in 28 pages of the report, still have not been released publicly.
The dispute comes as bipartisan criticism is growing in Congress about Washington's alliance with Saudi Arabia, for decades a crucial American ally in the Middle East and half of a partnership that once received little scrutiny from lawmakers. Last week, two senators introduced a resolution that would put restrictions on American arms sales to Saudi Arabia, which have expanded during the Obama administration.
Families of the Sept. 11 victims have used the courts to try to hold members of the Saudi royal family, Saudi banks and charities liable because of what the plaintiffs charged was Saudi financial support for terrorism. These efforts have largely been stymied, in part because of a 1976 law that gives foreign nations some immunity from lawsuits in American courts.
The Senate bill is intended to make clear that the immunity given to foreign nations under the law should not apply in cases where nations are found culpable for terrorist attacks that kill Americans on United States soil. If the bill were to pass both houses of Congress and be signed by the president, it could clear a path for the role of the Saudi government to be examined in the Sept. 11 lawsuits. . .
Sounds an awful lot like extortion, doesn't it? "Nice American assets there, don't you think? Be a shame if anything happened to them."
And yet, as Kevin Drum points out, alternatives might well be worse.
How the Maker of TurboTax Fought Free, Simple Tax Filing
While the government's mission is to improve the general welfare, the mission of a corporation is to make (and increase) profits, regardless the general welfare, which leads to toxic waste sites, fierce opposition to improvements that might damage profits, and a general attitude of narrow self-interest, which is as repellent as it sounds.
Liz Day reports in ProPublica:
Update, April 14, 2016: In 2013, we detailed how Intuit has lobbied against allowing the government to estimate your taxes for you. So this week, we called Intuit and asked if they still oppose free, government-prepared returns. The answer: Yes. "Our legislative, our policy position on that hasn't changed," said spokeswoman Julie Miller. She called Intuit "a staunch opponent to government prepared tax returns." Meanwhile, Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren proposed a bill yesterday to allow free government-prepped returns. Her office also released a report on the tax industry's opposition to simpler filing solutions. It cited the article below as well as another story we did on how a rabbi, civil rights activist, and others were misled into supporting Intuit's campaign.
This story was co-produced with NPR.
Imagine filing your income taxes in five minutes — and for free. You'd open up a pre-filled return, see what the government thinks you owe, make any needed changes and be done. The miserable annual IRS shuffle, gone.
It's already a reality in Denmark, Sweden and Spain. The government-prepared return would estimate your taxes using information your employer and bank already send it. Advocates say tens of millions of taxpayers could use such a system each year, saving them a collective $2 billion and 225 million hours in prep costs and time, according to one estimate.
The idea, known as "return-free filing," would be a voluntary alternative to hiring a tax preparer or using commercial tax software. The concept has been around for decades and has been endorsed by both President Ronald Reagan and a campaigning PresidentObama.
"This is not some pie-in-the-sky that's never been done before," said William Gale, co-director of the Urban-Brookings Tax Policy Center. "It's doable, feasible, implementable, and at a relatively low cost."
So why hasn't it become a reality?
Well, for one thing, it doesn't help that it's been opposed for years by the company behind the most popular consumer tax software — Intuit, maker of TurboTax. Conservative tax activist Grover Norquist and an influential computer industry group also have fought return-free filing.
Intuit has spent about $11.5 million on federal lobbying in the past five years — more than Apple or Amazon. Although the lobbying spans a range of issues, Intuit's disclosurespointedly note that the company "opposes IRS government tax preparation."
The disclosures show that Intuit as recently as 2011 lobbied on two bills, both of which died, that would have allowed many taxpayers to file pre-filled returns for free. The company also lobbied on bills in 2007 and 2011 that would have barred the Treasury Department, which includes the IRS, from initiating return-free filing. . .
How the tax-prep industry works to keep the government from simplifying tax forms
This is worth reading (PDF), and thank God for Senator Elizabeth Warren. Sometimes it seems as if most of Congress is totally focused on doing what businesses tell them to do. Sen. Warren offers a sharp contrast, fighting on behalf of the public, not corporations. The Executive Summary:
This tax season, Americans will spend billions of dollars and countless hours preparing and filing their annual returns. Taxpayers will spend, on average, 13 hours preparing and filing their returns, and will pay $200 for tax preparation services—a cost equal to almost 10% of the average federal tax refund.1 And no hourly or monetary value can measure the anxiety that taxpayers feel as the April filing deadline looms.2
But tax filing could work far more smoothly for millions of people. In 1998, a Republican Congress passed—and Democratic President Bill Clinton signed—the IRS Restructuring and Reform Act, which required the Treasury Department to develop, by 2008, procedures for the implementation of a "return-free" filing system that would compute an individual's tax liability by using information already reported to the IRS each year. Such a system would save taxpayers time and money, and would result in more accurate tax returns.3 For many taxpayers, it would take minutes instead of hours to complete their taxes.
But almost a decade after the law's required 2008 implementation date, the Treasury Department has failed to fulfill its legal obligation to establish procedures for return-free filing. Sen. Warren requested that her staff determine why. This report finds that:
• Despite its legal obligations, the IRS has surrendered to industry pressure and other efforts to block access to free and accurate return-free tax filing. Instead of implementing the return-free filing requirements in the 1998 IRS Restructuring and Reform Act, the IRS has time and again acquiesced to industry demands that it avoid developing return-free filing options. The agency has repeatedly yielded to industry demands to administer the "Free File" Program—a public-private partnership between the IRS and the tax preparation industry that offers low-income taxpayers free, industry-prepared electronic tax preparation services. The tax preparationindustry exerts powerful influence over the design and administration of this program; year after year, the IRS has signed Free File agreements with these tax preparation companies, in which the IRS pledges to "not compete…in providing free, online tax return preparation and filing services to taxpayers"— despite the fact that current law requires the Treasury to develop programs to do exactly that.4 The tax preparation industry-run Free File program has failed. It is currently used by only 3% of eligible filers and is described as a "maze of offerings" that can trick taxpayers into purchasing unnecessary products.5 Furthermore, the IRS has failed to implement commonsense tax simplification programs, like the Real Time Tax Initiative, instead bowing to industry complaints that such efforts would be precursors to return-free filing, which the industry opposes.
• The tax preparation industry has vehemently opposed return-free filing. Rather than sift through a complex tax code on their own, the majority of Americans hire tax professionals, or use tax preparation software, to prepare their returns. The tax-filing burden is an essential part of the tax preparation industry's business model, and the industry sees returnfree filing as a fundamental threat to its operations. As a result, the industry has devised numerous ways to oppose a returnfree filing system, spending millions of dollars lobbying Congress against return-free filing and mounting fake "grassroots" campaigns against return-free filing.
• While some simplification approaches would be consistent with their goals, antitax groups have nevertheless also opposed return-free filing. Anti-tax groups frequently raise concerns about the complexity of the tax code and the substantial burdens imposed by the current tax filing process: the mission of Americans for Tax Reform, for example, includes creating "a system in which taxes are simpler," while the National Taxpayers Union rails against the "over 6 billion hours each year for individuals and businesses to comply with the Code."6 A voluntary return-free filing program would address these concerns, simplifying filing, strengthening taxpayers' right to know the information the IRS had received on them from third parties, and substantially enhancing taxpayer freedom to choose how to file their taxes. But the same anti-tax groups that champion a simpler tax system have worked closely with the tax preparation industry to oppose free filing.
Return-free filing offers the chance to make tax filing for Americans significantly cheaper, faster and more accurate. But this report finds that vehement and longstanding opposition by the tax preparation industry and anti-tax groups has prevented the IRS from meeting its statutory requirement to develop procedures for return-free filing and has denied American taxpayers the many benefits of this system.

Winter cold cancels Oklahoma City school classes again
Due to the dangerously low wind chill factor, classes at all Oklahoma City Schools are canceled Wednesday.
Offices will be open and staff members, including teachers, are expected to report to work, a district spokeswoman reports. All activities will take place as planned.
The district has no more inclement weather days to use for the rest of the school year, according to spokeswoman Tierney Tinnin.
Changes to the official calendar can only be made by the school board, Tinnin reports. The interim superintendent can make recommended changes as to when additional inclement weather days will be made up after meeting with district senior leadership and the union employee groups, Tinnin reports.

T-Devils have players coming and going
TRENTON -- Jeff Prough didn't even get a chance to set up his locker and accommodation again before he was shipped out of Trenton once more.
Sent back down to the Trenton Devils on Wednesday, Prough was sent back to Lowell of the American Hockey League yesterday, a beneficiary of yet another injury suffered by their NHL affiliate and owner.
Prough, along with captain Trevor Kell, returned to Trenton on Wednesday so that New Jersey Devils players Titan Pierre-Luc Letorneau-Leblond and Ilkka Pikkarainen could get conditioning stints with Lowell. Kell and Prough played in the T-Devils' 4-2 loss at Reading on Friday night, and were set to play when the T-Devils returned to Trenton last night to face the Elmira Jackals.
But New Jersey forward David Clarkson fractured his right ankle on Friday. This injury necessitated Pikkarainen's return to New Jersey and, by extension, Prough's return to Lowell.
Prough and T-Devils head coach Rick Kowalsky found out about the move while returning to Trenton late Friday night. Prough's belongings hadn't even been shipped down from Lowell yet.
Prough got nine shots on goal for the T-Devils on Friday, but didn't score on any of them. Kell got only one shot on goal and finished the game with a minus-one rating.
The Royals took a 2-0 lead in the first period. Trenton rallied to tie the game on Myles Stoesz got the T-Devils on the board with 7:17 remaining in the first, and Dave Leaderer tied the game in the fifth minute of the second period. But the Royals answered with goals by Charlie Kronschnabel and Ben McLeod to re-take the lead, and the T-Devils couldn't rally again.
"¢ Last night's game started 30 minutes late because the Jackals got caught in a traffic jam on the way to Trenton.
With home games Friday night and tonight (the latter against the T-Devils) sandwiched around last night's game, the Jackals elected not to travel to Trenton until yesterday afternoon. According to a Jackals official, the team left Elmira around 12:45 p.m. But an overturned truck on the Pennsylvania Turnpike Northeast Extension near Wilkes Barre delayed their arrival for more than 90 minutes....

... i wonder why the fact that iran is allowed to get nuclear facilities is celebrated so much! why does iran need nuclear energy? was this question discussed, too, during the talks? in my opinion a country like iran does not need nuclear energy. iran has enough other energy sources. and by the way: isn't it germany which has a forerunner role when it comes to alternative energies? and yet the germans (and other eco-warriors) praise this interim agreement instead of convincing iran to do without nuclear energy and to turn to alternative energies! in my opinion iran is still interested to get the nuclear bomb. but mr. obama caves in - just like mr. carter did years ago in view of the embassy-crisis.
