Review of "Morphy Richards 47070 CAFE Matino"
"How do you like your coffee in the morning?"
Sick of going to Starbucks and Costa for a good quality coffee, we went in search of a filter coffee maker. We had only a few essential features; washable filter, timer, and looks good. Oh, and cheap.After hunting high and low, online and in the high street, we came across the Morphy Richards Café Mattino 47070 filter coffee maker. Did it match our requirements?
Washable filter? Check
Timer? Check
Looks good? Check
Cheap? Yip, but more of that later
The machine is made of high quality black and silver plastic, not cheap looking plastic, but a good quality plastic that looks like it will still be looking good after many months of use. The machine itself is quite compact, so it's perfect for our small kitchen.The carafe holds enough water for 12 cups, or 6 mugs, so it's a good size and perfect if you have friends round. Of course you can also make small quantities of coffee. The carafe has a cup indicator on the handle so you can use this to judge how much water to add. There is also an indicator on the front of the machine showing the amount of water in the tank.
One small design fault is that condensation forms on the lid covering the water tank and coffee filter, so when you lift the lid to pour water in or change the coffee, the condensation drips down the back of the machine, and can leave quite a puddle. Granted this only happens when the lid is opened within a few hours of the machine being used, but if you make the coffee too strong and want to add more water to weaken the taste, you will need to wipe up after yourself.USAGE
Lift the lid, fill the water compartment with water, and fill the filter with ground coffee. Press the power button and it's a done deal!Unlike most filter coffee makers I've had in the past, the jug is very well designed to stop any drips. It pours perfectly, right down to the last drop, so no need to wipe the worktop every time you pour a coffee.
Another good thing about this particular machine is that the coffee is very warm, and the thermostatic hotplate keeps it very hot, unlike some where the coffee is best described as lukewarm.The Café Mattino brews coffee quite quickly, roughly about 5 minutes for 6 cups, and does so without much noise. It certainly won't wake you if you have the timer set for first thing in the morning. And of course if you don't have the patience to wait a few minutes for the full pot to brew, you can pour yourself a cup at any stage during the brewing process and the non drip feature of this machine means that not a single drop will land on the hotplate whilst the carafe is removed.
One point to note is that the machine has an automatic cut off after two hours, so any coffee left in the carafe will start to turn cold. This is a useful feature, as I often tend to empty the carafe and forget to switch the machine off, but can be a bit annoying when you go for a refill and find yourself with a cup of cold coffee.TIMER
This was the feature that we wanted most in our coffee maker. We love the smell of freshly brewed coffee and what better time to have it than in the morning? This machine features a simple to use timer, simply press 'Program', then 'Hour' and 'Minute' to set the time when you want fresh coffee brewed and finally press 'Auto On' to set the timer, remembering of course to fill the water tank with the required amount of fresh water and put ground coffee into the filter.CLEANING
As the Café Mattino features a washable filter, it is a simple case of lifting the filter out of the top of the machine, emptying the used ground coffee into the bin and giving the filter a wash under running water. No complaints here, though a tip is to clean the filter shortly after the coffee has brewed, or else the ground coffee will dry out which makes it harder to remove.The glass jug is easy to clean by lifting the lid, leaving plenty of room to get a cloth inside the jug to give it a good clean. The lid doesn't seem to come off, so be careful not to lift it too much, or it may break, although it does seem to be very solidly built, but better safe than sorry.
Other than that there doesn't seem to be any other removable components, so I just give the rest of the machine a wipe with a wet cloth over the outside of the machine and the warm plate to keep it clean.THE ALL IMPORTANT TASTE TEST
Obviously the taste is dependent upon the type of coffee used; however I do think that a good coffee maker can help improve the taste. Coffee from this filter machine is very smooth, and I have never had any ground coffee in my cup.THE EVEN MORE IMPORTANT PRICE
This machine currently (25 Jan 2009) retails in Argos for £48.89, the top end of our budget. However we found an ex-display model on sale in Tesco for £20, where I believe that new models are reduced to £25. We went for the ex-display model, which came without a box, instructions or a measuring spoon. However full instructions are available online at Morphy Richards website.SUMMARY
I think this is a very well designed machine, which makes good coffee, and keeps the coffee very warm. The machine looks good, is easy to use and clean and is not overly noisy. Overall, I would give this machine 4.5 stars out of 5, mainly losing half a star because of the poor design of the lid meaning that condensation formed and drips down the back of the machine when the lid is opened.One small point to note however if you have poor co-ordination is that the water tank is quite narrow so if you struggle to pour things accurately you could end up making quite a mess. A funnel would help get the water in the right place, but its worth noting.

Product Description
Graviola stem and leaf powder is a true miracle from the rain-forests used traditionally to ward off illness and disease. It is a powerful herbal supplement that indigenous Indians of South America have used for centuries to strengthen the bodys defenses. Currently well known for its ability to combat cellular mutation, graviola leaf has also been praised for its antiviral, antibacterial and anti-parasitic qualities as well as its ability to reduce feelings of anxiety and depression and support healthy blood pressure levels.
Unique to Graviola is its wide variety of bioactive phytonutrients (organic compounds of plants thought to promote human health), which work naturally at the cellular and systemic levels. Graviola is a small evergreen tree from the Amazon Rainforest. Extensive studying has been performed for its potential to block free radicals and curb abnormal cell growth. As a natural immunity booster, it is used to ameliorate liver problems, reduce fever, and treat colds and flu.
Today scientists are most facinated with the anti-cancerous and anti-tumor properties of the graviola leaf. This is due to its high levels of annonaceous acetogenins, which are chemicals believed to slow down the unique process that takes place in cancerous cells. The acetogenins only attack the cancerous cells, leaving the healthy cells unharmed. Acetogenins may have the ability to destroy cancer cells that did not respond to traditional cancer treatment. One study demonstrated that one of the acetogenins in graviola was selectively cytotoxic to colon adenocarcinoma cells. In this study, the Anninaceous acetogenins were shown to possess 10,000 times the potency of the chemotherapeutic drug adriamicin. Graviola may be especially beneficial to those with lung, colon, pancreatic and ovarian cancers as well as lymphoma and leukemia.
Some of Graviola leafs health benefits are: antiviral, antibacterial, anti-fungal, fights parasites, lowers blood pressure, calms nerves, promotes relaxation and sleep.
Suggested use: steep 1 tsp in hot water with stevia for graviola tea or add to smoothies or juices.

High Drama
RH takes design to another level with the opening of a sparkling, museum-worthy gallery in West Hollywood—and a rooftop you might never leave.
There are very good reasons that it took four years and more than 300 people working around the clock to open RH West Hollywood, The Gallery on Melrose Avenue. Whether you blame it on 18 heritage olive trees flown in from Italy that make up a public rooftop park, the facade lined with Venetian plaster, boxwood topiaries and massive banana palm trees, or the 15-foot-tall steel gates designed as a nod to Italian mastermind Carlos Scarpa—it was all well worth the wait.
Built in collaboration with architect James Gillam of Backen, Gillam & Kroeger (the Sausalito-based firm that designed Restoration Hardware Chairman and CEO Gary Friedman's own Marin residence and collaborated with him on RH galleries in Houston and Greenwich, Conn.), the museum-like structure located across from Urth Café and the Pacific Design Center is a design dream come true. Think staircases lined with antique gilded mirrors and that pristinely manicured 10,000-square-foot rooftop garden showcasing the brand's outdoor furniture collection, replete with modern concrete fire tables, wall fountains, a pingpong table and a 40-foot-long table made of two planks of reclaimed pine. "The rooftop is a real destination, and I think people in the neighborhood will want to spend a lot of time there," says Gillam.
What sets the gallery apart, though, is the resort-like vibe: Impeccably styled rooms are arranged by style, color and category. Couple that with five-star service including an on-site team of design experts working with existing floor plans and photos, and offering up advice on everything from fabric and upholstery options to paint color (they also make house calls). "We are trying to be unpredictable, and we think until it hurts, so that the whole experience as you walk through will be like no other home store that anyone's ever seen," says Friedman.
And the gallery is just that, down to every meticulous detail, including a giant sculpture anchored at the top of the building to pay homage to the City of Angels: a 10-foot-tall vintage, angelic replica of the Louvre's Winged Victory of Samothrace procured by Friedman at a Parisian flea market. There's also a Ben Soleimani rug showroom, and a Bellocq Organic Tea Atelier, while store vignettes throughout are layered with found objects such as aviation artifacts, salvaged ship propellers and Old World maps. Says Friedman, "The No. 1 comment we hear people say when they come into the new galleries that we've built is: 'I just want to live here.'

This watch was purchased as an 18th birthday present for our daughter. The rose gold body and dark gray strap are very on trend and needless to say our daughter was delighted with it! Having only small hands and wrists, the face was not overly large for her like some watches can be. She loved the faceted face and the overall design is classic meaning she will always be able wear it. The only small negative was that it was very tricky to set the day/month - the pin you pull out hand 3 positions, but these were difficult to get into the right place for fear of damaging the watch. A great feature of the watch is the battery access disc on the back which will make replacing the battery a quick and easy job. Overall really pleased with the watch, looks and feels alot more expensive than it was and our daughter is over the moon with it.
Rating: Excellent (5 / 5)

As to be expected, there is much gnashing of teeth over Rene's sacking. The performances in the past 6 days suggested that maybe a corner had been turned, that maybe this "toilet bowl" of a season was finally getting some draino. Or, *gasp*, the bathroom was finally getting remodeled.
What's also expectedly absent from so much of the writings are any form of research or analysis of Rene's reign. But hey it sounds good to say Fulham are the next QPR or Cardiff or Leeds United. And that "madness" has taken over and we hit the "panic button" and that our "absentee owner has no idea who Felix Magath is". I rarely assume anything different from the sport's fans.
But pop open the hood and you'll find Rene's reign has been a bit of a dumpster fire to put it bluntly. Let's look at some advanced stats from when Jol got canned to the current day.
{Warning, I'm going to use some of those newfangled things known as statistics. If you're one of those "stats are bad" types, then just jump to the bottom where I discuss goals. You know, another type of statistic.}
In case you don't know, TSR means Total Shots Ratio, SV% is Save Percentage, SH% equals Shot Percentage, and PDO is Scoring % + Save %. Read full definitions here. These are important because they, especially TSR, usually have a strong correlation to goal difference and points. Also, all stats are from James Grayson's blog.
The only positive you can really deduct from the above is that Fulham are no longer getting outshot as exponentially as they were before. Each of the remaining metrics were down. It's not good enough, it's not sustainable, and the "moral victories" of the past week simply cannot paper over that fact.
For context, let's look at Tony Pulis and compare what he's accomplished, arguably with far less than what Rene has had to work with, to his predecessor.
His god-forsaken style aside, we see that Pulis has increased the teams TSR, SV%, and PDO. In layman's terms, he's shored up the defense despite the slight downtick in shot conversion (which is mainly due to his god-forsaken set piece/long-ball system). This is a sign of progress beyond what the current table shows, as standings can occasionally be disguised by smoke and mirrors (HI THERE WEST HAM IN 11TH!). This is why Crystal Palace have gone from regulation certainties to a steady lower/mid table finish.
If you don't want to read or acknowledge all those fancy stats, here are some more basic ones:
One tenet of Rene's reign was to go into the half tied at 0-0 or something thereabouts and have it fall apart. In fact, Fulham have been drawing at halftime a league-leading 15 times this season. Of that, 8 were under Rene.
Not bad on the surface, but only twice did Fulham get a result of any capacity in those matches: both wins, both in his first four games, both solitary goals. In total, when drawing, the club conceded 17 goals while scoring only 4 after halftime. Take those two victories away and it's 2 GF and 17 GA.
Plus plus plus only in one game, his *second*, did Fulham take a lead into halftime and see out the result. Need I remind you we're currently 20th?
Regardless of how you slice it, regardless of what disaster* of a squad you have, regardless of all the feel-good-emotions we've accrued in the past week…that's beyond terrible.
It was a bungled removal from office. But Kahn really had no choice.
{*Okay, fine, it was a disaster before he got here. Martin Jol should have been fired last spring and we're reaping that now. Also, MAF should have sold the club earlier or at least attempted to have *some* liabilities for the future owner, and we're reaping that now. Also, until Mitroglou's record fee, we're also reaping not spending more than £500,000 on a striker for nearly 5 seasons (and that was on David Elm!) UPDATE: Since Berbatov, not Mitroglou, which was officially "undisclosed". And on and on.}

We purchased this home because it reminded us of the family cabins that we grew up with in California. Our kids love the outdoors and Massanutten provides the perfect base camp for exploring the George Washington and Shenandoah National Forests.
We have remodeled our cabin to meet the needs of two families. The large dinning room table comfortably seats 10 and the bunkhouse provides a great place for the kids to hangout while the adults visit upstairs in front of the gas fireplace.
Luray Caverns, Shenandoah National Park, float trips down the Shenandoah river, wine tasting, and JMU football and basketball games are just a few of the activities you will find with 30 minutes of the front door.
The cabin upon arrival was very clean and well stocked with games, dvds, and great cooking ware! The views were fantastic and we had an excellent time, would highly recommend. The owner was quick to respond and great instructions... super easy to get to and check out, no hassle! Would definitely visit again with the family and we had a baby, the cabin came with a nice high chair and pack n play, downstairs is PERFECT for kids and teenagers!
Great house! Stayed with 6 friends. We enjoyed the house. The scenery is incredible. Be aware of the long, steep stairs into the house and within the house. Encountered some dirty dishes, but just worked around it. Would definitely stay again. Owner was gracious.
Fantastic house with a ton of amenities, games for kids, DVDs, Netflix etc. for all. The best part is the community around this house which has Adventure park, Tubing, hiking and biking trails, spa, golf course, go-cart etc.. This place has everything that you need to spend your vacation with your family. We spent 3 nights with 3 families and had a lot of fun. The bedrooms are okay in terms of size but the bunk beds downstairs are the attractions for the kids. The view from the deck was awesome.
Overall we had a great time together. Highly recommended.
Great to get away from the crowds in Harrisonburg during a busy weekend at JMU! Wonderful to be able to cook and serve meals in the space. Loved the views and thoroughly enjoyed the deck!
Nice views of the area below, saw wildlife and convenient for hikes in the surrounding area.
We really enjoyed the gorgeous mountain views. The kitchen is very well stocked, and the furniture is very comfortable, especially the leather couches and beds. The only reason I am not giving it 5 stars is because it really needs a deep clean. It was surface cleaned, but the oven was filthy, the bathroom rug and wall were dirty, and there were crumbs in the kitchen drawers. The dishwasher was also full when we got there- clean, but full, so I had to put dishes away. There were also 3 light bulbs burned out in the master bedroom. Once this house is deep cleaned, it is the perfect place to stay! Great location, floor plan, views, and very comfortable.

FLAMBOYANT internet entrepreneur Kim Dotcom is talking up his plans for a new political party ahead of its launch.
"My political party will activate non-voters, the youth, the internet electorate. We are going to make politics exciting. More on January 20," Dotcom tweeted on Sunday.
The German businessman, who is fighting extradition to the US on internet piracy charges, revealed plans for a political party last September.
At first, Dotcom said he could not be elected to parliament because he did not have citizenship.
He later told The Washington Post his lawyers had been checking New Zealand electoral law.
"They found that if I'm a permanent resident of New Zealand who's lived here for more than a year and is a registered voter, which I will be in November, you can run for office," Dotcom said.
He has previously tweeted that his policies will include a new submarine cable for New Zealand, fair internet pricing and no more data caps on internet users.
January 20 is the second anniversary of his arrest in New Zealand on US copyright and money-laundering charges relating to his former Megaupload website.
He has since launched a new file-sharing website, Mega.com.
New Zealand will have a general election in 2014.

Dear Kat,
My sister had a fight with her husband and they are thinking of separating. They have young kids and I am worried about the impact the separation would have on the kids. Is there a sw I can use to end their conflict and bring them together again.
First let me say,I don't come here very often, but I am quite active on the Facebook Switchwords group, which is a very busy place, one with a lot of people willing to help others:
The current list of all defined Switchwords is at:
The current list of all defined Defusing Words is at:
NOW to your CONCERNS:
First let US PUT into the past that which we don't want perpetuated into the future, and focus on what we want unattached to what we don't want...when we say, "but" we are taking the focus away what we want and putting on why we can't have it. PUT what you want in a NUTSHELL. No need for why you want it or what obstacles you may have had, just what you want.
"I AM..." is a a very powerful creative force. Always BE sure whatever follows it is something you wish to have in your future.

There is also a Yahoo group, which also has seemed quite slow for the past few years. I, personally, have not liked the format since Yahoo was bought out a few years back:
I can also add you to the General Boards at the Blue Iris Learning Center Forum, if you wish to send me your email address. It is a more private place for messaging.

Middlemen Cost Consumers Money, Convenience
March 6, 2001
Consumers can go online to buy computers, plane tickets, household products and many other items, cutting out the middleman and reducing costs. But franchise laws make it illegal for car companies to sell directly to consumers, and observers note the well-connected, deep-pocketed dealership industry has convinced most states that when it comes to cars, dealers know best.
The result: higher prices and less convenience. And the auto industry isn't alone in restricting transactions that cost consumers $15 billion a year according to a report from the Progressive Policy Institute.
Other examples:
- Licensing laws in about 15 states require companies that make, broker or service residential mortgages to have an office in the state before getting the license.
- Music retailers sued Sony Music for putting inserts in its CDs advertising its own website that sells CDs directly.
- When five airlines funded a one-stop ticket shopping site called Orbitz, travel agents filed a complaint with the Justice Department.
- Wine wholesalers convinced 30 states to ban direct sales of wine to consumers, meaning that if they wanted wine from a certain winery, there's no alternative to the retail store.
While in every case the complaining group claims it's acting in the public good, critics point out the real purpose of the laws is to restrict competition.

German soccer star returns to faith after meeting Pope
A veteran German soccer star says a meeting he had with Pope Benedict helped him rediscover his faith. In an interview with the Munich newspaper Abendzeitun, Franz Beckenbauer, who lead the German team to victory in the 1974 World Cup, said his audience with the Holy Father at the Vatican in October 2005 had made a profound impression on him. "It was the most important experience of my life" he said. After Pope visited Bavaria last year, Beckenbauer said he began studying the Pope's writings, and soon started going to church again - after a long gap. "Benedict XVI leads people to the Church and I myself am the best example of that," Beckenbauer said. Source: Abendseitun/ICN

text: Any reason you want to keep the same server name? It complicates things greatly and is best avoided. If you have new hardware do a standard swing migration migration. This will allow you to do the work with zero downtime and no loss of data. The most common reason that people want to retain the same computer name is because they don't want to visit every machine to change Outlook. That isn't a problem. As long as both the old and the new server are alive with Exchange installed when the clients login for the first time then they will redirect to the new server automatically with no interaction from the administrator or user required. You can even do the move without the users even noticing.

It seems pretty simple. Make backups of the Exchange Storage Groups. Take the existing Exchange server off line. Install Server 2003 and all the service packs on the new server and name the server the same as the previous Exchange server. Reset the Computer Account for the server in the domain. Join the Server to the domain. Install Exchange 2003 with /disasterrecovery switch. Install Exchange service packs with /disasterrecovery switch. Restore the exchange databases. Mount the store. The problem comes with the install of Exchange 2003. I get an error saying Exchange has known issues with that version of windows but I can Continue if I want. I am thinking it really will work because I have Exchange 2003 running on Server 2003. The install continues and says it finishes but it does not really install Exchange. I put the old server back on line and am trying to figure out what went wrong. Any ideas? I had Exchange 2003 SP2 running on Member Server 2003 SP1 in a Windows 2000 domain. Am I misreading the error? I was going to try installing Exchange 2003 on Server 2003 without the service pack to see if that would work. That does not really make sense though.

Here is a list of non-sequiturs as they came to mind:
1. Watched Transformers last night. It was entertaining drivel. In 20 years time when the special effects look shit, people will wonder what all the fuss was about.
I was into Transformers between the ages of 7 and 10. I had Kickback, Scourge, Cosmos, Astrotrain and some others.
Watching it made me feel old.
2. Last week the greatest album of all time (in my opinion, naturally) celebrated its 10th anniverary. OK Computer was released in June 1997. At the time, I was at University trying not to look scallies in the eye and writing essays about the recent New Labour landslide.
I listened to it again the other day and it still sounds as fresh and innovative today as it did back then. In fact, on the way back from the town, I was listening to it on my iPod just as a stretch limo slinked past. Before I knew it some slags had poked through the open sunroof and began gyrating to some bland techno beat.
At the time I was listening to Thom singing "I'll take the quiet life, a handshake of carbon monoxide, and no alarms and no suprises please". I looked back at the women writhing with their arms in the air trying to attract the attention of the some rugby shirted lads at the side of the road and thought "What do they know about proper music? What do they know about anything?"
Watching them made me feel old.
3. Had a random email from someone who used to work on Storm FM, the student radio station we helped set up. Apparently it's 10 years since the first broadcast. Me, Paul and Antony used to do The Night Shift from about 12 till 7 or something. I used to play a lot of OK Computer.
The email mooted a reunion. Obviously I won't be attending on account of my being 10,000 miles away. However, even if I had been in England I'm not sure I would be attending. Quite a lot of people on that station were total, total twats.
The website still exists in its original form all these years later: http://www.stormfm.co.uk
Looking at it makes me feel old.
4. It's funny the things you see in internet cafes. I have just watched a man, presumably very gay, spend over an hour watching You Tube videos of men arm wrestling.
I am also madly in love with the woman who works here. She wears calf length suede boots and a floral skirt.
Looking at her makes me feel young.

TAX TIME. I can hear your groans from here. Here come big, complicated tax words. Don't I pay my accountant to know these things? Well, consider this a gentle reminder for your busy, earthbound accountant. In the last few years, special depreciation tax laws have changed significantly for aircraft and other types of equipment purchased for use in business. This article is tailored to help the flying community take advantage of powerful, tax saving strategies that can result in writing off over three-quarters of the cost of your airplane in the year of purchase!
As you probably know, aircraft owners who fly their aircraft in the course of business are entitled to depreciate the cost of the airplane on the business' tax return. This is especially beneficial to sole proprietors, partners in partnerships, and shareholders of S corporations. Depreciation is not available for use on aircraft used solely for personal, non-business use.
So what is depreciation? Since an airplane costs a lot of money, the IRS originally didn't want you to be able to deduct the entire cost of the airplane as a business expense in one tax year. So they devised the modified accelerated cost recovery system (MACRS), which assigns a life span to different kinds of equipment. Airplanes are assigned a life span of seven years. This means that you can deduct the cost of your airplane over seven years. You report this fractional cost deduction on your company's tax return as a business expense called "depreciation expense," otherwise known simply as depreciation. Depreciation expense offsets income produced by your business, and results in a lower tax bill.
Under normal circumstances, the MACRS system only allows you to take 14.29% of the cost of your airplane as an expense in the year of purchase (see sidebar). However, if you bought an airplane in 2004 (or are planning on buying an airplane sometime before 2007), you have more options than just plain old MACRS. Two types of special depreciation can be used so your business can deduct a higher percentage of the cost of the airplane in the year of purchase. And the airplane does NOT have to be a factory-new aircraft! Used aircraft, so long as you bought it or have some kind of capital (monetary) investment in it, can also qualify for special depreciation.
The first type of special depreciation is called the "Section 179 Election to Expense." The section 179 election allows you to completely deduct (expense) the cost of your airplane in the year of purchase, up to $102,000 for 2004. (NOTE - If your airplane cost more than $410,000, the expense amount is reduced. If your airplane cost more than $512,000, you cannot use the section 179 election.)
The second type of special depreciation is called the "Section 168(k) Special Allowance." This rule allows you to deduct either 50% or 30% (your choice, but not both) of the cost of the aircraft in the first year of ownership, with no dollar limit on the deduction. This deduction can be taken even after the Section 179 election has been used.
When taking depreciation on your airplane, you have to keep track of how much you have claimed as depreciation expense on your taxes over the years, and how much of the original purchase price has yet to be written off. The original price you pay for your airplane is called your "basis" in the airplane. Every time you claim depreciation expense, no matter what type, the depreciation expense is subtracted from the basis. Eventually, after all depreciation expense has been claimed, your basis in the airplane will be zero.
Here are some examples of how special depreciation can be taken:
EXAMPLE ONE – MAXIMUM DEPRECIATION EXPENSE: Say for example in 2004 you purchased a 1999 Mooney M20 Eagle for $200,000 for use in your business. To claim the maximum deduction on your 2004 business tax return, take the deductions in the following order:
|[Cost of airplane]
|Section 179 election (maximum amount)
|Section 168(k) election (50% of $98K)
|MACRS depreciation (14.29% x $49K)
|Total depreciation expense for 2004:
By taking advantage of both special depreciation rules in addition to the regular MACRS depreciation deduction, the maximum depreciation allowable on a $200,000 airplane is $158,002 for 2004. For subsequent tax years, the MACRS depreciation percentage will be calculated as if you had purchased the aircraft for $49,000.
EXAMPLE TWO – MINIMUM DEPRECIATION EXPENSE: Obviously, you do not have to use the special depreciation rules if you don't want to! If you want to minimize your depreciation expense, just use the MACRS deprecation rules:
|[Cost of airplane]
|Section 179 election (maximum amount)
|Section 168(k) election (50% of $98K)
|MACRS depreciation (14.29% x $49K)
|Total depreciation expense for 2004:
For subsequent tax years, the MACRS depreciation percentage will be calculated on the original purchase price of $200,000.
So, using various combinations of section 179, section 168(k), and MACRS depreciation, for a $200,000 airplane purchased in 2004 you can choose a depreciation expense anywhere between $28,580 and $158,002. If your business has a high taxable income, you may want to take the highest depreciation expense available to reduce your taxable income, and therefore reduce your taxes.
Another consideration when planning your depreciation strategy is how long you intend to keep the airplane. When you sell your airplane, you will have to report the sale on your tax return, and recognize a capital gain on any amount received in excess of your current basis in the airplane. Returning to our two examples above, if the owner in example one sold the airplane for $250,000 in 2005, he/she would have a capital gain of $208,002 ($250,000 - $41,998). Owner two would only have a capital gain of $78,580 ($250,000 - $171,420). So, if you plan on keeping your plane for a very short time, it may not be to your advantage to use the special depreciation rules. However, if you plan to keep your airplane for a longer period, your basis in the airplane will be about the same no matter which depreciation method you choose, and you should base your decision on the tax benefit you would receive from a high depreciation expense in 2004. It is nearly always more advantageous to convert ordinary business income (taxed at up to 39%) into long-term capital gains (currently taxed at 15% or less) through the use of depreciation expense.
So now you're wondering, what qualifies my aircraft as a business expense? Or, how do I start a business to take advantage of these special rules? Those questions are beyond the scope of this article and best left to the advice of your personal accountant and attorney. Always have a tax professional review business purchases for tax ramifications. All tax advice is worth what you paid for it, and in this case the advice was free.
Hopefully the information contained here helps you with your business tax strategy. The special depreciation rules were created and updated in the aftermath of the September 11th attacks to stimulate the economy by encouraging the purchase of equipment by businesses. So make sure you are receiving all the benefits you can for your own business! Talk to your accountant today.

The Modified Accelerated Cost Recovery System (MACRS) uses a combination of double-declining balance and straight-line depreciation. Also, it assumes a "half-year convention," in other words, that you bought and placed your airplane into service sometime during the middle of the year. So, seven-year MACRS property is really depreciated over eight years using the following table:
Depreciation expense allowed = original cost (basis) x percentage for year

Let's face it: movies based on video games are usually horrendous. While a lot of it has to do with the scripts, directors, cast, etc., many of the problems can be boiled down to two core issues:
1.) The movie makes something from nothing (Super Mario Bros.)
2.) The movie ignores what is established to do its own thing (DOOM, Resident Evil)
With the Warcraft adaptation looming on the horizon, I'd like to propose ten games which would make for better flicks (provided the people involved are not Uwe Boll or Paul W.S. Anderson).

ExperienceI work as a substitute teacher in St. Paul, MN and truly enjoy working with students of all age levels. I have found the ability to connect with my students on a level that allows me to teach them in ways that are suited to their specific learning style. Not all students learn the same way, so it is important to find the manner of teaching style that they will respond to in order to fully understand the concepts of the subject being taught.
HobbiesI enjoy a wide range of music - from Debussy to One Direction. I have quite a few animals in my house - two dogs (Luna and Chief), two cats (Bodhi and Dharma)and two guinea pigs named Niall and Cookie Dough.

Admirers and detractors both have found him aloof, though very few have doubted the fact of his formidable intelligence.
And admirers and detractors alike have also found Barack Obama ...
