Wondering what Martina McBride has been up to this holiday season? Well, her fans will definitely consider this a satisfying Christmas present: She's finishing up a new album, which she plans to release in 2014 on her own label.
The set, titled Everlasting, will drop March 4 and contains a unique theme: McBride covers 14 classic songs on it, including gems from various genres. She teams up with Gavin DeGraw for Sam Cooke's "Bring It on Home to Me," as well as puts her own spin on R&B staples "Do Right Woman, Do Right Man," "If You Don't Know Me by Now," and "What Becomes of the Brokenhearted"; plus songs made famous by Elvis Presley, Van Morrison, and the Supremes.
Additionally, the new album will feature production from the legendary Don Was. The project will be put out on her newly created label through Kobalt label services. A full tracklisting hasn't been announced yet.
"These songs have beautiful melodies and emotional lyrics, which is basically all you can ask for as a singer." McBride explained of her choice to cover the classics. "While this is a bit of a departure for me song-wise, stylistically I approached these songs the way I always have which is singing with as much soul and emotion as I possibly can."
Producer Was is in total agreement: "Martina is a singer's singer. She brings a richness, soul and vulnerability to these songs that no one else could," he noted. "It's also testimony to both Martina's vocal prowess and her strong vision as an artist that she is able to step into these well-worn, classic songs and completely make them her own."
"I think my fans will love this record because they are some of the best songs of all time done in a very classic style," McBride said. "I'm so excited for them to hear it and to take this record, complete with a horn section, on the road in the spring."

Donor Letter Year Three
Dear Friend,
As Safe4Athletes approaches year 3, we would like to say many thanks to all of our donors for their continued support. Your help makes the good work of Safe4Athletes possible. It is because of your support that we are successfully "giving every athlete a voice" at every level of sports, from open amateur club sports programs to NCAA Division I athletics and beyond.
We have taken many steps forward this year in advocating for a safe and positive environment for every athlete, free of abuse, bullying and harassment:
- We have created, and made available, a mobile application that can report abuse direct to some of our clubs as well to Safe4Athletes. We have provided online educational material available to all athletes at their fingertips. Available for iPhone, Android and Windows devices
- We started to create online educational videos explaining the Safe4Athletes program with hopes to continue to expand this library to include education on all forms of abuse and bullying.
- We continue to maintain a high quality website, Safe4Athletes.org, and have continued to add resources, providing valuable educational materials for thousands of users
- We have consistently kept our community informed on important issues through our newsletters.
- We have continued to speak to clubs and universities all over the country, directly educating athletes, coaching staff and parents on the Safe4Athletes program.
- We continue to facilitate direct aid to several athletes requiring long-term care to assist them in dealing with the on-going issues of abuse.
- We have implemented Safe4Athletes within private high schools around the country that aren't protected by Title IX sexual harassment prohibitions, which only apply to institutions that are recipients of federal funds, by developing a handbook that is that is based on the Title IX compliance model.
- We have responded to the calls from many victims and parents of victims who are requesting our help with current issues ranging from taking action in the case of severe abuse to advocating for state legislation to make current laws more effective.
- We have developed surveys to further understand the issues on the topic of abuse.
- We have shared our survey results at various conferences across the country and at the IWG conference in Helsinki early this year.
- We have continued to develop a referral list of highly specialized therapists who are experts in working with coach/athlete trauma.
There isn't enough time, with present resources, to respond to all the requests and advocate on the numerous fronts that need to be addressed. One thing is crystal clear, there is a real, repressed and denied need for athlete welfare initiatives. Sexual abuse, bullying, and harassment has gone unchecked for too long.
Our goals for the coming year include the development of more online educational material, taking on more individual athlete cases and speaking at more conference around the athletic community. And of course, we will continue to be available to athletes in need of resources and assistance.
We hope that you will help us continue our important work. Whether it's a gift to support our non-profit programs, a willingness to share our materials and newsletters with your friends, hosting a fundraiser and educational program in your sports community or home, serving on our board or on a committee, or volunteering to work on a project, we would be grateful for your involvement.,
Please do not hesitate to call me if you would like to explore other ways to make a difference. Again, thanks so much for your support!
With thanks,
Katherine Starr
Founder & President

My first foray into the Gordon Free Band's music came when I discovered a copy of its album, SuperConscious, lying around SFR's office. Curious, I popped it on to get a taste. I cued the CD to a track titled "Revolution (Obama Radio Edit)" to see what an Obama radio edit might possibly be. The song begins with a speech delivered by Obama as a guitar slowly builds in the background.
"Good lord!" I thought. "He must be joking." Nope. What must have been an earnest attempt at an inspirational track came off as a ploy to draw listeners in amid the fervor of Obama's popularity. When the forced, cheesy, faux-gravelly vocals began to sing about generosity and forgiveness, I stopped the album and put something good on to get the bad taste out of my mouth.
I played the song for several friends in the following weeks, and each time the reaction was the same—"Gimme a break!"
Now, I am the first to admit that some bands are better live than recorded (and vice versa), so with an open mind, I went to see the Gordon Free Band for myself at Cowgirl on Nov. 4. The first several songs I saw were a bit sloppy; presumably because there were not many people watching, and that never helps a band get pumped. In fact, most people were openly trying to carry on conversations over the music. A musician myself, I realize how frustrating this can be, so I applaud Free and his band for at least trying to seem excited. However, a good attitude doesn't magically transform boring music into something worthwhile.
Perhaps the songs would have been relevant 10 or so years ago, back when Matchbox Twenty reigned and John Mellencamp made that blessedly brief comeback. But as I struggled to pin a word or feeling to the moment, I realized I had nothing in my lexicon that would properly convey just how goofy this performance was. Free rhymed a word with the exact same word on several occasions and had one song that, as far as I could tell, was simply a list of American states.
The set went on and on, and Free and company entered Hootie and the Blowfish territory—awful mid-'90s-esque mall-pop. I often listen to the music as I walk through Walgreens and wonder who writes this stuff, and why. Now I know who (but not why).
To the Gordon Free Band's credit, each musician was actually very talented, Free included. To a certain extent, solid musicianship can mask an otherwise unremarkable project, and there were definitely moments in which some promise shone through. Sadly, though, Free projected a kind of Bon Jovi wannabe persona that far overshadowed his backup, and had me seeing him as someone who clings desperately to a dream that may as well have faded ages ago.
I looked around for someone with whom I could possibly commiserate. No such luck. Thankfully, I'd suckered a friend into coming out and suffering with me, though I doubt he'll take my calls in the future.

530 was the approximate number of entries to Santa Fe's "Million-Dollar Buy In," including repeat entries from the same people.
"Offering local produce has been a [Walmart] priority for years…"—Walmart Senior Vice President Pam Kohn in a company press release
Last March, Santa Fe government, business and media leaders got together to launch a pro-shopping campaign called "Buy Into It!" The hope was the program would help Santa Fe businesses survive the recession through a generalized advertising effort.
From the beginning, campaign organizers disagreed over what it meant to "shop local." Santa Fe Chamber of Commerce President Simon Brackley basically won the argument, and the campaign decreed that any business located in Santa Fe was "local"—even national chain stores like Walmart or Target.
Santa Fe Alliance Executive Director Vicki Pozzebon has a more restrictive definition of local, but went along anyway. Now she calls it corporate "local-washing."
"At first it sounded like a really good idea," Pozzebon says. "I think it confused our buy-local-first message and what a dollar spent here actually means in the community."
Pozzebon says shopping at independent locally owned stores keeps far more money in Santa Fe—whereas shopping at national chains is "like strip-mining a community. The profits they make go directly back to their headquarters."
When campaign organizers—including SFR Publisher Andy Dudzik—reconvene in the fall, Pozzebon does not expect to participate.
As of July 10—the last day of several Buy Into It competitions—campaign organizers had 42 followers on Twitter, 36 friends on MySpace, six followers on Flickr and 352 friends on Facebook. The "Million-Dollar Buy In," which asked Santa Feans to email the contents of their shopping receipts, was halfway to its goal when last checked on July 13.
"It's pretty hard to get people to write in and say, 'Yeah, I bought into it,'" Hutton Broadcasting owner Scott Hutton says. "Did you do that? I didn't do it either—and I was part of the program."
Economic Development Division Specialist Kate Noble says those numbers don't fully measure the campaign's success. "I think a better measure is a straw poll, where I go through my day and it gets mentioned by a wide swatch of people, unprompted," Noble says.
Noble says the campaign has gotten a good response from its T-shirts, which read "I'm stimulating" on the front. "It's meant to be a little bit provocative," Noble says. "I run in one."

Eden selected dried small red beans, U.S.A. family organically grown in mineral rich, vital soil. The Cajun half of red beans and rice, popular in Spanish rice too. A kidney bean family member with the same dark red, but similar to black beans in size. Rich in healthy fiber, low fat, and a good source of protein, magnesium, and zinc. pareve
* See Detailed Description for qualified FDA health claims.
Eden Small Red Beans Phaseolus vulgaris are selected at the farm from our dedicated network of organic family farmers. The growers' constant care and vital organic soil produce the world's most appealing and nutritious food.
Eden Small Red Beans are ideal with rice and other grains. Try them in Mexican dishes in addition to (or instead of) pinto or black beans. They are the favorite bean for Cajun and Creole cooking. Great for soups, salads and for making refried beans.
According to the FDA, "Low fat diets rich in fruits and vegetables (foods that are low in fat and may contain dietary fiber, Vitamin A, or Vitamin C) may reduce the risk of some types of cancer, a disease associated with many factors," and "Diets low in sodium may reduce the risk of high blood pressure, a disease associated with many factors." Eden Small Red Beans are low fat, saturated fat and cholesterol free and are rich in dietary fiber. They are a good source of protein, magnesium and copper.
Studies show beans contain a wealth of antioxidants similar to those in fruits and berries. "Beans are really loaded with antioxidant compounds," said Clifford Beninger, Ph.D., an environmental biologist and former researcher for the USDA's Bean Research Unit. "We didn't know how potent they were until now. In general darker colored seed coats were associated with higher levels of flavonoids, and therefore higher antioxidant activity." Researchers tested the antioxidant activity of flavonoids found in 12 common varieties of dry beans. They found one class of compounds in particular, anthocyanins, were the most active antioxidants in beans. These findings add antioxidant activity to a growing list of healthy compounds found in beans and legumes. The study was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Eden Small Red Beans will stay fresh indefinitely if stored properly in a dark, dry, cool area, however we recommend using them within two years of purchase.
To prepare Eden Small Red Beans, rinse thoroughly and soak for six to eight hours. Strain and rinse again, then add fresh water to cover the beans by two inches. Boil uncovered for about 10 minutes, skim off any foam, and add vegetables and seasonings as desired. In addition we recommend adding a two inch strip of Eden Kombu, at the beginning of cooking, for each cup of dried beans to help soften them. Cover and simmer for about one and a half hours. Season with 1/4 teaspoon Eden Sea Salt, and cook for 1/2 hour more. If using a pressure cooker add seasonings at the start of cooking and cook for about one hour (or until tender).

IF Lance continues to demonstrate improved decision-making with the ball in his hands.
IF Lance can adequately guard the position.
IF Lance proves to be more consistent than last season.
IF, and this is the biggest question mark to me, Lance shows more growth in regards to his maturity....
I think I want him to be our starting point guard later on this season. I think FOR THIS TEAM and HOW THIS TEAM PLAYS OFFENSE, he could be a killer upgrade at that position.
Of course, in this scenario, new questions and problems would present themselves now and during the summer... primarily regarding George Hill.

Watford have appointed former Brighton boss Oscar Garcia as their new head coach.
The Hornets moved quickly to appoint the 41-year-old, who spent a season with the Seagulls before departing in May, following the resignation of Beppe Sannino on Sunday.
A club statement read: "Watford Football Club is delighted to confirm the appointment of �scar Garcia as Head Coach, the Hornets having won the race against several high-profile English clubs to secure his services.
"�scar's recent Championship experience, taking Brighton & Hove Albion into last season's Championship promotion Play-Offs, was a key factor in his appointment."
Garcia, who began his coaching career with Barcelona's academy, arrived at The Amex in June 2013 having led Maccabi Tel Aviv to the league title and into the Champions League in his sole campaign as head coach.
He led Brighton to a sixth-placed finish before resigning in the aftermath of their Championship play-off semi-final defeat to Derby in May.
He returned for a second spell with Maccabi only to part company with the club last Tuesday after just three months in charge due to their current security situation in Israel.
And on Tuesday morning he was appointed as the replacement for Italian Sannino, who had left Vicarage Road after nine months in charge with the Hornets second in the table.
Two Championship sides, Huddersfield and Leeds, remain without a permanent manager in charge.

"We reviewed all of our jail's programs and determined this one is not well suited for our institution," MDC Director Ramon Rustin told SFR today. "Our main concern in this situation is the health and safety of the inmates."
Rustin said he is working closely with the medical team to develop a plan to detox inmates currently participating in the program.
But not everyone agrees with Rustin's decision.
Recent Medical Director Anjali Taneja, who took over the program in August, said Rustin never consulted with her about discontinuing the program.
Now, Taneja said she plans to ask county commissioners to fire Rustin or ask him to resign.
But Rustin isn't worried. He said his supervisors support his decision.
"With 33 years in the corrections field, they trust my advice," he said.
Taneja said this isn't the first attempt by the jail to curtail the six-year-old program started by Dr. Bruce Trigg, who resigned his position at the jail in July.
Taneja tells SFR that MDC's Operation Manager James Zamora told her to begin detoxing patients on methadone treatment in August.
"I refused to do so, as it was not medically necessary and because they would not give justification for stopping the program," Taneja said. "Their real motive is to get everyone completely off methadone within a week; throw them into detox units and let them suffer."
Taneja said she is worried some of her patients could suffer fatal consequences from a rapid detox.
"It's inhumane and potentially very dangerous," Taneja said.
But County Commissioner Wayne Johnson, a Republican, who supports Rustin's decision, said it won't be similar to quitting cold turkey.
"We're not going to lock them up in a cell and not take care of them," Johnson said. "Every inmate will have their vital signs checked every six hours by a trained nurse."
Rustin says inmates will receive reduced amounts of methadone and prescription medication to control seizures and said he decided to allow pregnant women to continue their treatments while they are incarcerated.
The decision to end the methadone program at MDC comes three months after New Mexico's own Medicaid program joined 30 other states that recognize methadone as an effective treatment for heroin addiction and authorized re-payment for outpatient treatment.
The Centers for Disease Control, the National Institutes of Health and the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration, among others, have continually supported methadone as an effective treatment for opioid dependence that reduces overdose deaths.
"We are appalled at Bernalillo County's decision," Drug Policy Alliance State Director Emily Kaltenbach says.
"Up until now, Bernalillo County's MDC Methadone Program has been a beacon of effective, physician-approved treatment. It has been a model for the rest of the state. This decision is not only unsound and counterproductive, but a step backward by reverting to a treatment model that does not work for everyone."
Still, Rustin wants inmates to rid their system of all substances.
"It helps them think more rationally and enables them to make better decisions," Rustin said.
He disputes claims from groups like the Drug Policy Alliance that the jail program reduces recidivism.
"Most of the 140 people in the program today are repeat offenders," he said.
Johnson said alcoholics are not given beer in jail. Instead, he said they are allowed to detox and provided medication to reduce withdrawal symptoms.
Taneja said she's heard from guards and inmate families that they worry that jail violence and contraband smuggling will increase after the program ceases.
"I am incensed and upset for the inmates, and sad that our progress in setting a model as a progressive state is being reversed in one swift decision," Taneja says.
Trigg, who set up MDC's methadone treatment program six years ago—and invited Clinton's Drug Czar Gen. Barry McCaffrey and then New Mexico Department of Health Secretary Michelle Lujan Grisham, to the program's inaugural launch—believes that Rustin "lacks a basic understanding of substance abuse and treatment."
Trigg, who sent an email to program supporters today, said the program has always been seen as an important public health intervention.
"It's proven to prevent transmission of infectious diseases, overdose deaths, relapse and recidivism and to encourage more people to enter evidence-based treatment for their heroin addiction," Trigg wrote.
Kaltenbach insists treatments inside jails are key to reducing the state's drug overdose epidemic.
In fact, a newly issued report on drug overdose deaths in the United States found New Mexico to have the highest overall overdose death rate of any state.
The DPA in New Mexico sent SFR a statement and claims treatment significantly reduces criminal activity during and after treatment.
Every dollar invested in substance misuse treatment saves taxpayers $7.46 in societal costs such as crime, violence, and loss of productivity. Averaging $5,000 a year, methadone maintenance therapy has proven to be a cost-effective way to break the cycle of incarceration, preventing the state from paying an upwards of $40,000 a year to incarcerate someone for their addiction.
Contrary to jailers, Dr. Trigg asserts the program has proven to reduce recidivism.
"Some of the repeat admissions are for minor probation violations," Trigg wrote. "Such as being late for an appointment with a probation officer or a traffic ticket; not necessarily for heroin use."
Trigg claims his data shows that 90 percent of inmates treated in jail report to their local methadone clinic following their release.
Most of the people on the program are awaiting a court date and have never even been convicted of any crime yet their potentially life-saving medication is going to be discontinued.
The program only enrolls people who are already in a community-based methadone program at the time of their arrest. Most receive their first methadone dose at the jail in a day or two after admission so they do not need to be observed in the special detox unit at the jail. They are also able to have their initial court hearing since those who are too sick may have to delay their hearing. Both of these save the jail money.
A number of the methadone patients are enrolled in the Gordon Bernell Charter School and the teachers and staff there have noted how well their students have done who in the methadone program compared with those with untreated addiction issues.
For now, Rustin says he's convinced his decision will help inmates get back on their feet.
"In jail, you have to stay clean and sober," Rustin said. "We don't allow nicotine addicts to smoke."
Rustin says he is not concerned about an increase in contraband. He says the county has purchased two body scan machines and they hope to catch drugs at the front door.

(Ho!) I don't think you're right for him (Hey!) Look at what it might have been if you (Ho!) Took a bus to Chinatown (Hey!) I'd be standing on Canal (Ho!) And Bowery (Hey!) (Ho!) And she'd be standing next to me (Hey!) - The Lumineers, "Ho Hey" NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- On the Friday before St. Patrick's Day weekend a decade ago, I found myself in the basement dining room of Wo Hop -- an infamous, if touristy, late-night Chinese restaurant on Mott Street in New York's Chinatown -- at sunrise eating egg foo yung and watching the staff turn a corner table full of meat and dough into rows of dumplings. I was working as a copy editor at a newspaper in North Jersey at the time, and both cash and days off were hard to come by. After wrangling a Sunday-Thursday schedule, I decided to make the most of both my time and money by booking a ticket on a Fung Wah bus and crashing on the floor of a friend's bedroom in South Boston for the Saturday St. Patrick's Day parade down West Broadway. Not only did I get a 5:30 a.m. bus out for $10, but it took me up I-95 in four hours, gave me two days to spend doing the things idiots do when turning an hours-long St. Patrick's Day parade into a two-day affair and brought me home Sunday with a Boston Phoenix and Newbury Comics bag next to me and plenty of time to make my Sunday night shift. The Fung Wah was convenient, it was quick and, now I'm told, it could have very well been the end of me. Earlier this month, the federal Department of Transportation shut down Fung Wah after the company responded to initial concerns about safety by blocking access to its records. In the past two years it has been cited for 159 maintenance violations, racked up nearly a dozen speeding tickets and has been cited for employing drivers without commercial driver's licenses. Oh, there's also the small matters of running over pedestrians on the Manhattan Bridge, related on BoweryBoogie.com, overturning in Massachusetts, described in the Worcester Telegram, and getting involved in myriad other calamities in recent years, noted in a boston.com editorial. That brought the scolds out of the armchairs to remind the rest of us how lucky we are to still be alive (though Fung Wah never killed anyone). The New Yorker dusted off Bob Dylan's "Farewell Angelina" for a parody song that sounds like Weird Al Yankovic's dad giving him a lecture about the perils of low-cost coach travel.

By Meredith, Pure Matters
Let's get the awkward bit of the way first: I'm pregnant. Right now. You can't see the soccer ball I'm hiding under my shirt, but I assure you that it's there. I'm also still hitting the gym -- though I'm certainly not at the level I was six months ago, I'm still exercising. (I felt like I should tell you that, in case you were reading this and thinking, "What does this woman think she knows about pregnancy and exercise?" I know! For real!)
And I know firsthand that it's easy to get that big fat positive pregnancy test and then immediately start listing all the reasons you should skip the gym.
You might do something that hurts the baby.
You're exhausted.
You're supposed to be getting extra calories anyway, why add exercise to the mix?!
It's easy to think you can't. It really is. And maybe you can't do exactly what you were doing before, but you can do something. I had stretches of days (maybe weeks) where I thought I can't, but ultimately, the benefits of exercise during pregnancy got me up from my perch on the couch. Those benefits, straight from the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, include:
- Reduced backaches, constipation, swelling, and bloating
- Increased energy
- Better mood
- Better posture
- Better sleep
- More muscle tone, strength, and endurance
Most of those benefits can help address common pregnancy complaints -- and while my back still hurts no matter what I do, I also sleep extremely well, I've had very little trouble with swelling, and my energy levels are improving. And that last benefit about strength and endurance, I suppose that might come in handy in the delivery room -- but I'll have to get back to you on that.
Now, if you're pregnant and I've convinced you to get moving, what can you do? First of all, before you do anything: Talk to you doctor. If you're already fit, he or she will likely give you a heartbeat-per-minute ceiling to stay under (mine was 140 bpm, which I found to be incredibly boring), and permission to go back to your usual routine. If you're just getting started, you'll likely get a customized slate of beginner exercises.
You'll want to make smart decisions -- I gave up bootcamp and tabata, because the classes were crowded, the floors would get sweaty, and I didn't want to fall or get bumped. (Basically, you should avoid any situation where you might fall -- skiing, roller derby, jousting, hockey, etc.) What exercises you can do varies by trimester, so keep the lines of communication with your doc open at every appointment. Meanwhile, here are a few things you can do safely, regardless of trimester:
- Walking: Aim for 30 minutes a day. And it doesn't have to be one long 30-minute walk. I trek five blocks to and from work every morning and every night. Since I'm carrying around this soccer ball, it takes me at least 10 minutes each way. (Yup, I'm slow.) But boom -- I've more than halfway knocked this bit of exercise off my to-do list, five days a week, just by doing my job.
- Swimming: It's great exercise, pregnant or not, because it works so many muscles and it's low impact. Plus, it's summer and the cool water feels great. Again, aim for 30 minutes of movement. I've been taking a water aerobics class, and while I certainly feel silly, it's refreshing.
- Cycling: It gave me great pleasure to realize I didn't have to give up my beloved spin classes. Watch your heartrate, and ditch out of class after 30 minutes if you're beat — that's been my approach.
- Yoga: Look for prenatal classes in your area for stretches and poses specifically designed to get your body ready to deliver a baby. You'll also get to meet other pregnant ladies in your area, and maybe make some new friends. (I confess, this is one area where I'm not practicing what I preach. Yoga bores me, and I'm anti-social.)
Regardless of what exercises you choose, hydrate as much as you possibly can, even if it means stopping for a bathroom break. If you start to feel dizzy, lightheaded, or weak during a workout, by all means: stop. More important, if you start to bleed, stop. The bottom line is that now more than ever, it's important to listen to your body. It'll tell you what it needs, and if you're pushing yourself too hard.

- Always make sure you have protection. Contact the tax attorney, a CPA or an enrolled agent to help you and represent you during an audit.
- Make sure you ask the person you have chosen to work with if they have ever worked on an audit for your particular needs. If they say yes, ask them if they won; if they say yes to that, ask to speak with that former client to get a good reference for that professional.
- Always make sure that you have good books and records. I highly recommend you keep all of your receipts at least seven years. I also recommend you hire a professional bookkeeper to handle the preparation of your books and records. Even a small business can get into trouble and lose an audit if they don't have the proper documentation.
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- For Shauna Wekherlien, the owner of Tax Goddess Business Services PC in Scottsdale, Ariz., the scariest tax audit she saw was a corker, including threats from the Internal Revenue Service and a dash of ignorance and hostility. "This client was in manufacturing," she says. "They sent out a young auditor, who CPAs refer to as 'iPod auditors' because during the whole audit all they do is listen to their iPods. This auditor came in and asked for bank statements -- a very normal thing for an auditor to do. However, in this instance, the auditor kept telling the client that he was missing the November bank statement. Of course, the auditor had the November bank statement, but didn't understand the bank statements didn't close exactly on the first of each month and end on the 31st of each month." That led to further problems, Wekherlien says. "The auditor actually threatens my client, saying that if he did not provide the November bank statements he would have the 'entire IRS come down on him so hard that he wouldn't know what hit him.' It was at this point that we requested a new auditor. When you have an auditor doesn't know how to read bank statements, you know you're in trouble," she says. Sometimes, a tax audit horror story doesn't point the finger of guilt at the big, bad, IRSm but on "toxic" tax professionals. "We have had a couple of matters -- one involving a forge company and another one in general manufacturing -- where each had hired 'tax professionals' who represented them in examinations," says Walter Harris, a former IRS executive and current director of IRS practice and procedure at New York City-based Alliant Group, a tax services firm. "In both cases, the examinations went south because of poorly prepared materials, unreasonable arguments and tax positions that obstructed the IRS personnel." For the tax client, the fallout was huge, and not in a good way. "The impact was exposure to extensive tax liabilities, each in the mid-six-figure range," Harris adds. "When we were hired to come in and help, we had to rebuild the arguments from scratch and look for offsets. It's not always easy to regain the confidence of the audit team, particularly when they have been so frustrated to that point in the examination." But first comes the shock of finding out you're targeted for an audit. What can taxpayers do if they're in the IRS' line of audit fire? Once again, we have enlisted the help of an all-star lineup of tax specialists: Tax Goddess' Wekherlien To handle an IRS auditor, taxpayers should:

No injuries were reported and traffic was allowed through at 8:09 a.m.
Guist was released Saturday from the Rock County Jail on bond.

Dillon, Gaughan bring NASCAR to Canada
August 29, 2013, Zack Albert, NASCAR.com
OSHAWA, Ontario -- Richard Childress Racing drivers Ty Dillon and Brendan Gaughan stood in the pickup bed of a 2014 Chevrolet Silverado, accompanied by Kevin Williams, the President and Managing Director of General Motors Canada.
As Williams greeted some of the approximately 5,000 employees from the automaker's Canadian base, the drivers' two team haulers rumbled behind them onto the back lot of the company's Canadian Engineering Centre.
The grand entrance made it clear: NASCAR had come to town.
Dillon, Gaughan and a host of RCR crewmembers toured the carmaker's facilities, signed autographs for employees and gave away race tickets Thursday ahead of the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series' inaugural international race, the first Chevrolet Silverado 250 (Sunday, 1:30 p.m. ET, FOX Sports 1) at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park.
The drivers' appearance not only gave the Ontario-based crowd a taste of what to expect this weekend at the road course just 30 minutes away, but also gave the drivers a special glimpse at what goes in to making the vehicles they drive on the street and race on the track.
"It's awesome to see the people behind the scenes here at the GM plant and all the hard work and what it takes to make such a huge business run as well as it does and be so successful," said Dillon, fourth in the series' standings. "For us, we can't thank them enough for working so hard for building the best car there is out there."
The choice of RCR as special guests at a General Motors hub that specializes in producing the sporty Camaro was a natural fit. Childress, both as a driver and team owner, is in his fifth decade as a loyal NASCAR competitor in Chevrolets.
It's a mutually beneficial relationship that continues to pay dividends for both sides.
"It's synonymous," Gaughan said. "I could never see Richard with another manufacturer -- it wouldn't happen. The history he has with Chevy and how far back he goes with the General Motors brand, the GM Goodwrench cars forever with Dale Earnhardt Sr., himself back in the '60s and '70s. It's special to be part of a company that has such a history with a single brand because you don't see that nowadays, in anything in life."
Dillon agreed, in a slightly more direct manner: "I don't know anything other than Chevrolet. Any other manufacturer is a bad word to me."
The company's ties to the truck tour's first race at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park are evident beyond their proximity. Chevy's venerable pickup brand will serve as the inaugural race's sponsor, and track co-owner and promotor Ron Fellows is a longtime Chevrolet loyalist in both NASCAR and sports-car racing.
Fellows said earlier in the week that he wouldn't be able to breathe a sigh of relief until the checkered flag had flown to close a well-received event at his home track. In the meantime, the chief of GM Canada has already given his stamp of approval
"Quite frankly, Ron Fellows is one of the best of the best at what he does," Williams said. "He's been such a huge part of our success at General Motors. And to see this whole thing come together the way that Ron and the team have brought it together, it just makes us proud of a part of our family and a member of our team."
Thursday's afternoon of casually chatting with GM employees represented the calm before the storm for Dillon and Gaughan ahead of a Friday packed with 4 1/2 hours of practice for the truck series' first road-course race since 2000.
The extra test day and Saturday's Keystone Light Pole Qualifying will be a prelude to Sunday's main event, which could mimic the rambunctious nature of the NASCAR Nationwide Series' first go-round at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course two weeks ago. Track officials have reported strong ticket and camping-lot sales in advance of the historic race -- news which came as no surprise to Dillon.
"Man, if I lived in Canada, I know I'd be at this race for sure," Dillon said. "It's the greatest facility around, and it's NASCAR racing in Canada -- why would you miss it?"

Report: Magic pursuing 'rental' team for Howard
By Matt Moore
Dwight Howard is expected to be traded to the perfect spot. It'll be a team he wants to play for, since that team is the only kind he'll re-sign with this summer in free agency. It has to be a contender, or potential contender (as in the case of the Nets with Deron Williams), and a major market so he can get all the media and commercial love he desires. That's pretty clear. But the Orlando Sentinel reports that the Magic are pursuing another option. The rental game.
The Magic are talking to more teams than the ones on Dwight Howard's wish list.
They will listen to anybody who is willing to take a risk and give up a few good men for Howard if he can lead them to the NBA Finals as a temp.
It's another reason why they will wait until the March 15 deadline to make a deal for Howard, after he's played 44 games in Orlando. His new team would land him for 22 games, plus the postseason.
Absolutely. Sounds more like a means to put pressure on the teams that Howard has approved (Nets, Mavericks, Lakers).
But the Magic think some teams might take a flyer, hoping they can convince Howard to re-sign with them.
via Orlando Magic: Magic to explore renting out Dwight Howard - OrlandoSentinel.com.
No one would be crazy enough to do this, right? To actually give up assets in order to nab Howard for 22 games and the playoffs, before he likely leaves? Well, there should be. That's right. I'm advocating insanity. That's how I roll.
Two factors to consider if you're in the hunt for a Dwight rental.
1. You have to move contracts that have considerable money behind them. The reason being, if Dwight doesn't re-sign, you don't want to be left without the pieces you traded, without Dwight, and a large salary situation. You're basically angling for a rebuilding. Part of the complication here is the Magic will want to dump Hedo Turkoglu or other components with salary burden. But the Magic have to know that to get back more talent like they reportedly want, they can't dump salary too in a rental situation. So why would the trading team risk rebuilding?
2. Because the odds of a title is worth it. Consider the Pacers. If you're Larry Bird, what are you really trying to accomplish, honestly? You want to make a good strong showing in the playoffs, maybe get hot and uspet some folks on the way to the eastern Conference Finals, to try and be in position to make one big move to get you over the hump and win the title in a wacky year. You know you're not going to be able to compete with Miami, Oklahoma City, Los Angeles, Chicago etc. every year. You're hoping to pull off a Pistons-esque title. The same goes for any team considering a rental. So if you're angling for one title, anyway, why not take your shot with the best defensive player in the league, an MVP candidate for 22 games and the playoffs.
That's the reasoning. You also have to establish how long it will take you to get back to being decent, since you have to factor how much winning a title will bring you financially versus two-to-three years of rebuilding will hurt you. And then you have to measure that against your actual odds of winning the title this season.
All of this leads to the reality that the chances are not good. You're asking GM's and owners to take a phenomenal risk with a devastating loss if they miss, and the payoff might not even be that good. Are several years of second round appearances better financially than a title and two years of lottery dwelling?
There's no list available of teams that might be interested, but here are five teams who should consider making the jump.
Indiana Pacers: As I mentioned earlier, the Pacers should be a team willing to make the move. Larry Bird doesn't want to do this forever. Getting Dwight gives them a chance to win the title this season, instead of waiting for years and years and years potentially without any payoff. The Pacers are deep enough to offer the Magic an option plan. Darren Collison or George Hill, Danny Granger or Paul George, and Roy Hibbert (youth, talent) vs. Jeff Foster (expiring contract, veteran experience). That's a great package and still leaves the Pacers with whoever the Magic don't take, along with David West for scoring.
Atlanta Hawks: The Hawks have been involved in talks this week with the Magic anyway, according to ESPN. Offering to move Josh Smith or Al Horford along with Joe Johnson puts the Magic in a great position to keep making the playoffs. The Hawks would have Jeff Teague, Kirk Hinrich, and either Smith or Horford to pair with Howard to try and make a run. With Howard having been born in Atlanta, it's got some pull and a good run might talk him into it. Not really, but sure. The biggest objection from Magic fans is that the Magic would never take on Joe Johnson's contract. But this is Otis Smith who took on Gilbert Arenas and Hedo Turkoglu in one year to try and win. Meanwhile, Johnson is an All-Star, and still is an above-average-to-pretty-good player at both ends without injury issues.
Memphis Grizzlies: The Grizzlies may wind up moving Rudy Gay anyway if this season keeps up and they have to make a move. The Grizzlies need frontcourt depth. So get Dwight Howard! Genius! OK,it's a long shot, but if moving Gay, Sam Young or O.J. Mayo, and either Marc Gasol or Zach Randolph brings in Howard, that could make the Grizzlies the best team in the West. They'd have defense and the best low-post-scoring combo in the league. Memphis is unlikely to be able to stay in contention for several years. Why not take the shot now?
Philadelphia 76ers: The Sixers have youth, Andre Igoudala as a centerpiece, and a full compliment of picks to add in. The team would be mortgaging the long-term value they've been angling for, but coach Doug Collins has also said that eventually they want to aim to bring in a star. Make a run with Jrue Holiday, Thaddeus Young, Elton Brand, and Howard, and if it doesn't work out, move towards the future.
Portland Trail Blazers: Paul Allen wants to avoid the luxury tax. What better way to do that than by trading for Howard's expiring contract? OK, kidding aside, the Blazers are so loaded, they can move Wesley Matthews and either LaMarcus Aldridge or Gerald Wallace. The remaining lineup would be good enough to challenge for the West.
Are any of these teams going to take the risk? No. Because this is not a league of gambling like this. The repercussions for failure would be catastrophic. But if a team really was all about winning a title, renting Howard for 22 games and the playoffs would be the boldest move possible.
Would renting Dwight give us a shot at a title? Would it be worth a one year roll of the dice to lose some foundation for the future?

U.S.A. family farm organic large dark red kidney beans with chili and jalapeno peppers and 100% organic vegetables, herbs, and spices. Eden selected, soaked overnight, and thoroughly cooked at Eden's certified organic and kosher cannery with purified water and zero chemical additives. Versatile and ready to eat. Great on their own or for making dozens of easy meals. High in healthy fiber and a good source of protein, potassium, iron, riboflavin B2, magnesium, and phenomenal zinc with 40 percent daily value. Packed in bisphenol-A free can linings since April 1999. pareve
Eden Organic Chili Beans with Jalapeno and Chili Peppers are dark red kidney beans with red and green chili peppers, organic tomato puree, a bit of our finest shoyu soy sauce, and organic herbs and organic spices. The beans are soaked overnight and expertly cooked with purified water and our carefully selected organic seasonings at our certified organic, pareve cannery.
Eden Organic Beans are packed in steel cans coated with a baked on oleoresinous c-enamel that does not contain the endocrine disrupter chemical, bisphenol-A (BPA). Oleoresin is a natural mixture of an oil and a resin extracted from various plants, such as pine or balsam fir. These cans cost 14% more than the industry standard cans that do contain BPA. The can maker, Ball Corporation, tells us that Eden is the only U.S. food maker to date to use these BPA free cans and we have been since April 1999.
These kidney beans are selected at the farm from our dedicated network of USA organic family growers. The growers' constant care and vital organic soil produce the world's most appealing and nutritious food.
Kidney beans Phaseolus vulgaris are named for their kidney shape. There are different types ranging from white, light red, to dark red. These are the deepest red and large. Kidneys are native to North America and one of the most popular beans here.
For the third time in 2004 Eden Organic Beans received the highest rating for flavor and nourishment in exhaustive comparison studies of canned beans by the Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI) in their Nutrition Action Healthletter. Eden Organic Refried Beans were named 'Best Buy' and number one for nutrition among 38 brands with salt added. In 2004 Eden beans were rated as favorites by Men's Health and Child Magazine. In the June 2006 article "125 Best Foods for Men," Men's Health again rated Eden Beans as the best beans for having great flavor, being heart healthy, promoting weight loss and offering "The highest fiber with the least amount of sodium" among all other brands.
According to the FDA, "Low fat diets rich in fiber-containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables may reduce the risk of some types of cancer, a disease associated with many factors." Eden Organic Chili Beans are an excellent source of dietary fiber, 28 percent daily value per serving. They are also saturated fat and cholesterol free, an excellent source of zinc (40 percent daily value), and a good source of potassium, protein, iron, riboflavin (B1), phosphorus, and magnesium.
Most seasoned beans contain refined sugar, harsh salt, chemical processing aids, preservatives and meat products. Commercial canners put chemicals in with beans to harden the skins so that they won't fall apart in the can as they cook. They also add a chemical to hold the color. Eden organic beans come out perfect with none of these additives. Because of the vital soil that produces them, their much higher mineral content and stronger skins allow them to be cooked without need of processing chemicals, and their vibrant colors hold fast. Our cannery, Meridian Foods located in East central Indiana, has a long standing reputation for putting out cooked canned beans of a better quality, fill, and finish than any other cannery in the United States.
Studies show beans contain a wealth of antioxidants similar to those in fruits and berries. "Beans are really loaded with antioxidant compounds," said Clifford Beninger, Ph.D., an environmental biologist and former researcher for the USDA's Bean Research Unit. "We didn't know how potent they were until now. In general darker colored seed coats were associated with higher levels of flavonoids, and therefore higher antioxidant activity." Researchers tested the antioxidant activity of flavonoids found in 12 common varieties of dry beans. They found one class of compounds in particular, anthocyanins, were the most active antioxidants in beans. These findings add antioxidant activity to a growing list of healthy compounds found in beans and legumes. The study was published in the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry.
Eden Organic Chili Beans are ready to eat as is or heat and serve. They also make an excellent starter for homemade chili. Great in enchiladas, burritos, tortillas and spicy taco soup. Try mashing the beans and making spicy refried beans or bean dips.

How to Customize Ice Tool Picks
Max Bier
via rockandice.com
Ho ho, welcome to the world of the un-pumpable steel finger. Now you must decide just how dedicated you are, because the heavier you delve into it, the more it will lighten your wallet.
I assume that you will be using mixed tools such as the Petzl Nomic or the Black Diamond Fusion and getting fruit boots. If these particulars are not in your plans, just continue hanging from leashes on drippy ice climbs. Trying to mixed climb with ice gear is like going to a samurai swordfight armed with a cake knife.
To instill in you the sense of devotion required for mixed climbing, and the price you must be willing to pay, I put together a Mixed Climbers' Creed. Memorize it. Say it!
These are my mixed tools. There are many like them, but these are mine. My mixed tools are my best friends. They are my life. I must learn to master my tools just as I must learn to master my life. Without me, my tools are worthless. Without my tools, I am worthless.
Now we can proceed.
Stock drytooling picks have teeth on the underside, from front to back, and over the back portion of the topside for steinpulling purchase. You don't need to change anything there. The issue is with the front tooth. The factory grind, which gives you one big angled tooth, is great for ice climbing and good for rock hooking. You probably don't want to mess with the picks your first season out. As you improve and advance through the grades, however, and start tackling trickier routes with shallow and/or sloping holds, you will want to file the front tooth into what resembles a modified cat's claw, a shape that can better resist an outward pull.
Make the modification by taking a round (chainsaw) file and notching the front tooth. The bigger the tooth and the finer its point, the better it will hook. But since you're removing metal, you're also shortening the pick's life expectancy. I have two sets of picks, one stock and one modified. The stock picks I use on easier, workout routes and ice climbs; the modified picks I reserve for harder project attempts.Both picks must be kept stropping sharp. For this, get a mill bastard file (not to be confused with the mill a-hole file). Sharpen by pushing the file forward only (files have forward-facing teeth, so only cut in that direction.) Bear down but go slowly, checking your progress and the angle of the cut after every few strokes. As you stroke by yourself in the cold, damp and dark cellar, take cheer by chanting: These are my mixed tools ... Gear Guy has spoken!

At this writing, the true identity of fake Santa Fe mayoral candidate "Devil Coss" remains a mystery. But SFR is prepared to unmask the prankster behind his opponent, "Asinine Kepler."
Never heard of them? Then you're probably not among the 1 in 157 Santa Feans using Twitter, the online social networking site that allows for free and instant communication with super-short text messages, or "tweets."
This story of political impersonation begins with Former City Manager Asenath Kepler's first post on Sept. 3 at 8:14 am: "Kepler for Mayor Campaign headquarters is officially open!"
Not to be outdone, Mayor David Coss joined Twitter on Oct. 19, declaring, at 10:39 pm, "I am on Twitter!" His next message thanked "the more than 300 people who attended my Re-Election Campaign Kick-Off Party yesterday!"
Who cares? Good question. As of Nov. 30, Coss had only 33 Twitter followers, trailing Kepler by 12. Twitter is not exactly the most effective form of voter outreach ever to hit Santa Fe.
So far, Barack Obama has been the most successful American politician when it comes to understanding and exploiting the internet. But when most candidates go online, the result is as boring as Coss and Kepler's first tweets.
Like much of the mainstream media, politicians know they need to take advantage of the web, but they're not sure exactly how.
It's that mismatch between ambitions and outcomes that inspired 32-year-old Jaime Dean, a St. Michael's High School graduate, 2006 Don Diego De Vargas and founder of a few small tech companies. Dean was irked by the "soapbox approach" to social media in the Santa Fe mayoral race. He responded in fine American style—with satire.
On Nov. 18, Dean created a fake Twitter account under the name Asinine Kepler called ass4mayor. In the space for biographical details, he wrote, "I see myself as a Local version of Sandra Bullock." Asinine's first post? "Hello, Santa Fe! Let's see if I can figure this out!"
Soon followed by this: "I don't get it."
And then: "Hello??? Can anyone see this?"
Dean-as-Kepler quickly gathered a small following of New Mexico media people, and Asinine began tweeting like a semi-literate teenager: "this is cool. I can already feel that my constitchuents [sic] like me embracing the 'New Media' -- thanks for all your support, guys. luv ya! xox."
By Nov. 20, an unknown Kepler fan caught on to the prank and set up an account with the name "Devil Coss" called kissmyass4mayor. Devil wrote to Asinine: "good thing I'm not working on anyone's campaign. But David Coss would be ashamed to know you're working on his!"
Dean says he has no connection to the Coss campaign, but will vote for him. He has a theory regarding who's behind "Devil Coss," but SFR could not confirm its author by press time.
Dean's Asinine account was temporarily suspended after someone reported him as an imposter. He convinced Twitter to restore the account on grounds that it was an obvious parody, allowed by the site's terms of service.
The real Mayor Coss tells SFR he wishes the "Asinine" author would take the page down. "I don't think we need to be attacking people anonymously, sarcastically. I just don't think it contributes to the campaign," Coss says.
As for Kepler, she's confident Devil Coss isn't authored by a campaign staffer. "People have supporters on both sides…It's not anybody on my committee. I know that for sure," she tells SFR.
Kepler says she finds the Twitter parodies entertaining. "I'm new to social networking because I come from a generation that didn't really do a lot of that," she says. "It's a great tool, but it's also a tool for mischief, you know what I'm saying?"
The third mayoral candidate, City Councilor Miguel Chavez, is not on Twitter. But unlike Coss and Kepler, he lists his home and cell phone numbers on his website for all to see.

Photo Gallery: Coachella 2012
The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival lineup has been set and a music fan would struggle finding a more diverse group of top-notch talent in a single setting this year.
Funk rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, experimental rock guitarist Lou Reed, hip-hop super-group Wu-Tang Clan, rock band The Stone Roses as well as alternative rock band Blur are among the scores of artists who will perform at Coachella.
The festival runs April 12-14 and April 19-21 at the Empire Polo Grounds in Indio.
"The gang is real excited to be playing Coachella alongside such a pantheon of musical (top acts)," said Ben Schneider, guitarist and vocalist of Los Angeles indie folk group Lord Huron.
"It's gonna be a helluva time out there in the desert. And we get to do it twice. Yee-haw."
Non-headliners will also include the reuniting Postal Service, a Los Angeles-based electronic music group, Los Angeles hip-hop group Jurassic 5 as well as art punk group Yeah Yeah Yeahs and indie rock's Vampire Weekend.
Max Thomas of Skinny Lister, a five piece folk act based in London, said the group is proud to be a part of Coachella.
"The bands on the lineup look great," Thomas said.
"We haven't been to Coachella. We drove past (on a tour). It was happening and we drove past. I've heard it's hot, hot, hot."
The festival features a "who's who" of up and coming alternative rock bands as well as established veterans, said John DeSantis, program director at San Bernardino-based alternative rock radio station X103.9.
Lord Huron is among the many up and comer groups performing at Coachella. Others include Los Angeles indie rock's Local Natives, Vancouver indie rock band Japandroids, Australia psychedelic rock group Tame Impala and Iceland indie folk's Of Monsters and Men.
But, DeSantis said, acts such as Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds, Violent Femmes as well as the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Stone Roses and Blur will hit people who are sentimental.
"It makes them nostalgic and want to ... relive those days," DeSantis said.
"Or it's for people who missed them when they were around back in the day. There's a little something for everybody."
Chelsea Terrill, floor manager of Rhino Records in Claremont, said the Thursday night announcement of the lineup has an added benfit - it brings people into the store.
"Yeah definitely," Terrill said. "If they don't know a band or know of a band and want to see them, they will come here and pick up some music."
Shaun Carter, Rhino Records product manager, said he has attended the festival six times since 2002 and never had a bad experience.
"Every time I've gone it's pretty amazing," Carter said. "The people are pretty good ... There's lots of places to rest. You can sit down in the grass, they're always people to talk to, they've got benches set up and you can get something to eat."
Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival passes go on sale at 10 a.m. Tuesday.
General admission festival and shuttle pass combo ticket for a single weekend is available for $399.
Other ticket options involving a festival pass and car camping pass are also available.
A general admission festival pass for a single weekend - which cost $349 - is sold out.
The festival runs April 12-14 and April 19-21 at the Empire Polo Club in Indio.
Gates open at 11 a.m. each day and the show runs until 12:30 a.m.
