Employer of Choice
What is the Employer of Choice?
The LeadingAge Ohio Employer of Choice initiative:
- Establishes the operational standards for strengthening workforce practices among aging services employers
- Creates criteria/thresholds by which to evaluate the standards
- Provides a public recognition of this excellence so that residents, clients/customers, prospective employees, payors and other stakeholders can be aware.
Through this instrument, LeadingAge Ohio members demonstrate that they strive not just to be residences/providers of choice, but they seek to be employers of choice as well. They acknowledge the importance of treating their employees – those that serve their residents/clients – with the same care they wish these employees to provide.
Requirements for Eligibility and Criteria
Before beginning the application process, please note there are several minimum requirements an Employer of Choice must meet:
- In order to apply for this designation, if a nursing facility or home health organization, the facility must be a 3-Star or above (as of the most recent published rating)[see page 4 of application for additional information]; and
- For newly opened communities, an occupancy rate of 80% or better for at least one year as of the date of application; and
- If an organization has less than the appropriate benchmark median number of Days Cash on Hand or Current Ratio, additional supporting materials will be requested in order to validate financial viability [see page 6 of application for additional information]. Additional supporting materials should be submitted in advance of completion of the application.
The Employer of Choice designation is applicable to individual communities/locations, that is, it is not applicable to a multi-site. Note, however, that exceptions to this requirement may be granted on a case-by-case basis to multi-site organizations that centralize their human resource functions.
Criteria for Employer of Choice
Application Process and Due Date
June 1, 2017: Applications due (Note: Deadline has been extended until mid June)
August 2017: Applying organization will be notified of its award

**NOTE: Designation will be granted for the remainder of the current calendar year and through the next (that is, a designation granted in September, 2017 will expire in December, 2018).

Right from the beginning Dr. Jugenburg was understanding and most importantly didn't pressure me into doing anything I wasn't ready to do. I first went to a consultation with my mother, where he guided us step by step through the procedure. Feeling more than ready I decided to book the appointment.
The procedure I had was a Incision less Otoplasty ear tuck on both of my ears, meaning the incisions are on the inside of the ear and I was able to go through the whole procedure with out the use of anesthetic just local freezing. My recovery was fast and I didn't feel much pain, just feeling very uncomfortable. With in weeks after my ear tuck, I was off to Spain to compete in the Miss Intercontinental pageant wearing my hair up never feeling better. Being able to wear my hair in a ponytail and not feel like everyone is staring at me has made my life a lot more relaxed and I no longer feel self-conscious. I can also perform better at my modelling jobs, which required me to wear my hair up.

Mumbai: Chennai Super Kings Team Principal Gurunath Meiyappan has been chargesheeted by the Mumbai Police for betting during the 2013 IPL.
According to a Times Now report, he has been charged with session betting, by leaking out team composition, team strategy, batting positions and injury updates to Vindoo Dara Singh, who in turn relayed the information to bookies. Vindoo has also been named in the chargesheet, which says that he was betting for himself and Meiyappan.
Besides 22 accused and eight wanted accused, the charge-sheet has named several Indian and Pakistani bookies, many of whom were arrested in Mumbai when the scam surfaced in May. Running into more than 11,500 pages, the police have charged the accused under various sections of the Indian Penal Code, Mumbai Police Act, IT Act and Gambling Act.
The police have named around 200 witnesses and attached half-a-dozen forensic reports and mentioned 181 seizures pertaining to the case. Phone records, CCTV footage, SIM card details have been cited as evidence in the chargesheet.

Meiyappan's father-in-law, BCCI president N.Srinivasan had earlier distanced himself from his son-in-law saying, "This is a matter for Mr Gurunath Meiyappan to deal with. If he is charge-sheeted, the law will take it own course. He has been suspended so he has got nothing to do with the game," Srinivasan told PTI.
The CSK team owner had been arrested on May 24, 2013, after reports emerged that he was betting on IPL matches. He was given bail along with Vindoo Dara Singh in June 2013. Chennai Super Kings distanced themselves from Meiyappan, saying that he was an honorary member of the franchise.
The Mumbai Police also claim that they have incriminating evidence against Pakistani umpire Asad Rauf, who fled to Pakistan, after his name cropped up during investigation. He has been named as 'wanted accused'.
Rauf however claims to be innocent, "I discuss cricket with everyone. There is a difference between discussing cricket and giving away information. I am friends with Vindoo Dara Singh, I am not responsible for his actions and haven't taken any favours from anyone. There is nothing to prove that I am linked to bookies. I have officiated in five editions of the IPL, my decision making was honest", he said in an interview to TV channel Times Now.

Joel Edgerton, Jessica Chastain to Star in DISAPPEARANCE OF ELEANOR RIGBY
According to Hollywood.com , filmmaker Ned Benson will be writing and directing two connected films, The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: His and The Disappearance of Eleanor Rigby: Hers, which when shown together, will tell the tale of a troubled marriage from both the husband and wife's point of views. Actors Jessica Chastain and Joel Edgerton will portray the roles of the married couple. Each film will act as 'stand-alone' pieces.
Both films will center on the strained married couple who must deal with pressure from the husband's restaurant business and the wife's decision to return to a career in academia. Each film will have a different perspective on the situation.
In 2009 Edgerton starred alongside Cate Blanchett as Stanley in the Sydney Theatre Company's acclaimed production of A Streetcar Named Desire. Edgerton and Blanchett also appeared in a production of this play at the Brooklyn Academy Of Music in December 2009.
Jessica Chastain will make her Broadway debut in an upcoming revival of Ruth Goetz and Augustus Goetz's play 'The Heiress'. She recently received an Oscar nomination for her performance in 'The Help'.

|The first half of this route is a walk up. There is one kind of awkward move getting onto the chest high lip that sticks out midway up the climb. The remaining six to ten feet are steep, but there are fairly big holds.
By Sean O'Dell
Jun 6, 2002
|I agree - 2/3 of this route is a scramble. The crux move is a little stout, but that's about all there is. If a route's rating is that of its hardest move, this is a 9+. If a route's rating were the average of all its moves, this one's a 6.

|This route is AWESOME!!! One of my favorites. There is a 2 bolt anchor on top which is accessed by walking farther along the trail to a scramble. Mak sure your slings extend far enough off the end of the rock or you will trash your rope. The right side of the rock(closest to the trail) is probably 5.9-5.9+. The left side is a scramble at first, but then you move over to the 5.9.

|Definitely a one move route, but that one move was interesting with a couple of different solutions. A good route if you are doing others in the area but not one to visit Grocery Store Wall specifically for.

|My family loves this route. Days that we feel like pushing it we do Blood, other days we do Caramel. The best part is that the camp area is huge. My two year old runs the camp like it is home away from home.

|Two cruxes on this route. The first is a very thin balancing move over the bulge, the second is a power move on polished jugs to the anchors. A 5.11 climber at the area said it is sandbagged at 9+, and others agreed with that, including me.

|I would agree with William. The crux move is pretty bold, and the rest of the moves from there are more sustained. Start on the right side (variation), and move left for a solid 10a.

Pink & Carey Hart To Remarry?
It was no coincidence that Pink's ex-husband Carey Hart was featured in her music video "So What." The couple, who split in February 2008 just two years after their wedding, are rumored to be tying the knot for a second time after admitting to a reconciliation.
An insider told In Touch, "They broke up because of their busy careers, but they never stopped loving each other." These photos of the two from 2005 show them looking very much in love.
The do-over nuptials are set to take place at a ceremony at their Malibu home on the beach at sunset, a spy claims. Another source told the magazine, "It will take place in early summer and will be very simple and small, with just their family and a few close friends."

The film will be launched as an eight-part mini-epic, starting on Sunday, February 13th and will be available on www.puppetheap.com.

Directed by Paul Andrejco, the film features puppets created by Puppet Heap Workshop and music composed by Jeremiah Lockwood.
"This film is definitely something that was borne of the entire team at Puppet Heap. It was really written, or wrought, by actually playing with puppets in our hands," said Paul Andrejco, Founder and CEO of Puppet Heap. "The result is something that moves way beyond my vision and the content of the source material. All of our artists, designers, performers and musicians came together to make something truly special."

The best foods to give your sex life a happy boost

Dismiss the myths
Forget oysters and powdered rhino horn; improving your sex life is a lot simpler than tracking down esoteric—not to mention mostly unproven—aphrodisiacs. In fact, you're probably eating many of the vitamins and nutrients that support a robust sex life right now, just not in sufficient quantities.
"One of the best things you can do to ensure a healthy sex life is to eat a well balanced diet," says Beverly Whipple, PhD, RN, professor emeritus at Rutgers University and co-author of Science of Orgasm and The Orgasm Answer Guide.
These diet dos and don'ts will not only improve your romantic life, they'll improve your overall health as well.
More from Prevention: 13 Tips for Seriously Better Sex1. Stay balanced
Do: Eat a balanced breakfast
Your meal should include protein and fiber, such as yogurt with fresh berries or peanut butter on whole wheat toast. This combo takes longer to digest, so you'll have steady energy all morning, which in turn prevents you from making unhealthy choices later on, says Susan Kleiner, PhD, a registered dietician and author of Power Eating. More energy means you won't be a moody grump when you get home from work, so you can enjoy time with your partner.
Don't: Load up on carbs
Eating carbohydrate-rich meals, like a bagel with cream cheese, is a disaster—your blood sugar will spike and then plummet, leaving you sluggish. You won't be in the mood for anything—except a nap.
More from Prevention: Breakfasts To Jump-Start Your Brain2. Hydrate
Do: Drink plenty of liquids
Keeping hydrated helps you stay mentally and physically alert all day and helps you go the extra distance at night. "If you're low on fluids, you will be low on those important sexual fluids too," points out Kleiner. "Drink a couple of cups of water when you rise in the morning after your overnight fast; this is the most dehydrated time of the day." Keep sipping low-calorie beverages and snacking on foods with high water content throughout the day.
Don't: Overdo the lattes
Sure, coffee or tea in the morning gets your engine going and helps you focus, but quaffing caffeinated beverages like energy drinks, iced tea, coffee, and cola all day long can leave you jittery by day's end and in no mood for R&R. "Too much caffeine is a central nervous stimulant," warns Leslie Bonci, a registered dietician and director of sports medicine nutrition at the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. "You may end up chasing each other around the bed and be too wound up to get down to business!"3. Oil up
Do: Flavor veggies with olive oil and munch on nuts
Fats are necessary to produce the sex hormones testosterone and estrogen, notes Whipple. If you adhere to a very-low-fat diet, you won't have adequate levels of those hormones—both of which are important for women—and your desire will flag. However, be sure to eat healthy unsaturated fats—the kind found in olive oil, fatty fish, and walnuts.
Also include some fats that are high in omega-3 fatty acids, such as fatty fish and nuts. Omega-3s may lift your spirits if you suffer from mild depression or bipolar disorder. According to a review published in the French journal Biomedicine & Pharmacotherapy, omega-3 fatty acids may also help prevent premenstrual syndrome and postmenopausal hot flashes—uncomfortable states that can definitely dampen your mojo.
Don't: Eat too much red meat and processed baked goods
Unhealthy saturated and trans fats, on the other hand, contribute to clogged arteries and lowered blood flow. "When the blood supply is blocked, there is less blood flowing to the genitals," says Whipple. "Women won't feel as lubricated and will have less feelings of arousal."
And men won't be able to get erections as easily. In one study, researchers examined the cholesterol levels and sex lives of 3,250 men between ages 26 and 83. As cholesterol levels rose, so did the likelihood of suffering from erectile dysfunction. The authors of the study, conducted at the University of South Carolina School of Medicine, concluded that high levels of total cholesterol and a low level of high-density lipoprotein (HDL—aka good cholesterol) are risk factors for erectile dysfunction.4. Stay lean
Do: Eat chicken, fish, and lean protein
When you don't have enough protein in your diet, the brain's level of dopamine—the neurotransmitter associated with feelings of happiness and romance—drops, leaving you feeling blah and definitely not in a frolicking frame of mind. Dopamine may also help with erectile dysfunction in men, says Bonci. "An active woman should have at least 0.5 grams of protein per pound of body weight daily," adds Kleiner. "Divide your body weight in half, and that is the least amount of protein that you should have in a day."
Don't: Snack on calorie-laden junk food
It's not good for you, and it will likely add inches to your girth. If you feel fat and unattractive, you certainly won't want to throw off your clothes and hop into bed for sex. "A lot of women tell me they don't feel sexy enough for sex," says Judith Reichman, MD, a gynecologist and author I'm Not in the Mood: What Every Woman Should Know about Improving Her Libido. And body image has a lot to do with it. Eat well and eat moderately.5. Enjoy a drink
Do: Enjoy a glass of wine with dinner
A small cocktail or glass of wine at night can help get you in the mood for intimacy by giving you a sense of relaxation and calm—perfect precursors for lovemaking, says Reichman.
Don't: Drink two or more alcoholic beverages
But too much wine, beer, or liquor can backfire by depressing your central nervous system, making you sleepy and dampening your feelings of desire, says Reichman, who also cautions that some studies indicate a link between excessive alcohol consumption and breast cancer. And let's face it: It's harder to perform when your reflexes are slow. What's more, once the alcohol is metabolized—presumably while you are asleep—the depressant effect will wear off, and you may wake up and have trouble falling back to sleep. And we all know that tossing and turning are not much fun for one's bedmate.
More from Prevention: The Health Benefits Of Wine6. Indulge in some chocolate
Do: Nibble on dark chocolate after dinner
Chocolate makes you feel happy—for real! A few squares in the evening can be the perfect segue to a bedroom rendezvous. In one German study in the journal Appetite, women were given either an apple, a piece of chocolate, or nothing and asked to rate their mood after consuming them. The researchers found that when women ate chocolate, they immediately experienced a mood boost—a much higher spike than after eating an apple (no surprise there!) and that boost stayed for the duration of the observation period, about 90 minutes. Keep a bar of high-quality dark chocolate in your bedside table. "One of the rewards for being human is sex," says Reichman. "If you want to have sex, it helps to be in an upbeat mood."
Don't: Have a big meal before bed
Typically, a large meal increases blood flow to the gut—"the wrong organ," notes Bonci. "If you feel full and fat, romance is probably not in the air." However, don't starve yourself just to have a flat stomach. A grumbling stomach isn't romantic, either, and too many hours without food may leave you tired or lightheaded.

When Erik Karlsson talks about not yet being all the way back from his Achillies injury, he must be referring to being all the way back in his own zone.
Sometimes, it seems, he's not really there at all.
The Senators could have easily been down 3-0 before they trailed the Islanders 1-0 Wednesday night, and Karlsson's fingerprints would have been on each of the goals against.
There was no excuse for the first great chance he gave the Islanders. He took a risky swipe at the puck, trying to keep it in the New York end with the Senators on an early power play, and when he missed, Cal Clutterbuck had a 100 foot breakaway.
Fortunately for Ottawa, Craig Anderson extended his consecutive shootout saves streak to four (three in the actual tie-breaking contest Monday and then this one) to keep the game scoreless.
A few minutes after that, the ever-dangerous Casey Cizikas (133 NHL games, 11 goals) stepped around Karlsson like No. 65 was stuck in mud, only to have the puck slip off his stick when he was alone on Anderson's doorstep. And a couple of minutes after that, Karlsson barely waved at Anders Lee before the former sixth round pick who was playing just his 18th NHL game ripped a wrist shot that forced Anderson to make a strong glove save.
Asked by New York reporters at the morning skate how Karlsson has managed along the road back to being his award winning self, Senators coach Paul MacLean referred to Karlsson's impressive (20 goals, 50 assists) offensive numbers.
Then MacLean spoke about his defence.
"I think he's been better ... when he won the Norris Trophy he was better at it," he said. "But I think part of that is the confidence ... he's not the big, strong guy, he has to use his skating ability to do it.
"I think when he gets into that battle sometimes, the injury resurfaces, type of thing, and he doesn't have the same amount of confidence in it as maybe he did in the past. That's just time, letting it get stronger and stronger until it gets back to where he was."
MacLean has often said, when asked about Karlsson's game that, sometimes he plays for "us" and sometimes for "them."
Are the Senators coaches doing anything to get him working for the team that pays him more often than not?
"We talk to him lots, and show him what we need to show him, but for the most part it's just talking to him," said MacLean. "He's got 70 points, he's a good player, but he is minus. That's there. He has the puck, I think he leads the league in turnovers, but the good side of that is he has the puck lots. And that's good for us.
"Again, we show it to him, we talk to him about 'not everyone sees the game the way you see it, you've got to keep it simpler for the guys you're playing with so that they understand what you need and where you're going to go with pucks.' It's all part of the process. Continuing to learn and be an elite player in the league, it just doesn't happen overnight . It's something that you have to learn. he's willing to learn it and we spend lots of time talking about it."
But Karlsson knew how to play defence two years ago, right?
Jason Spezza looked good at the morning skate. He said afterwards he felt good, too. And then, minutes after the statement, the coach said his captain would not be available to play against the Islanders. Ottawa should have been treating this game like the season was on the line, because it was. All hands had to be on board, if they could go at all ... Trying to be too cute were Mika Zibanejad and Ales Hemsky on a first period rush that should have given the Senators the lead. Zibanejad was guilty of making the "one pass too many" when he should have shot ... The Senators have signed their seventh round pick in 2011, forward Ryan Dzingel, to an entry-level contract, and they have high hopes for him. Dzingel is a Hobey Baker Top 10 finalist after scoring 22 goals and 24 assists in 37 games this season for Ohio State. He'll finish the season in Binghamton.
Robin Lehner is the latest Senator to purchase piranhas. He says his are bigger than Marc Methot's and are named after four of the local hockey beat writers -- yours truly, Bruce Garrioch, Sly St-Laurent and Ken Warren. "The fifth one got eaten," said The Lehner. What was its name? "I can't tell you that," he said. Lehner, who had piranhas while growing up in Sweden, likens the blood thirsty fish to reporters, he says, because when we smell a story we attack it. I'm gonna go with that ... Kyle Turris, who went to school at Wisconsin, is still feeling bad about not picking the Badgers in his bracket. If they wind up in the finals against a team he did take, Turris knows who he'll be cheering for. "Oh blow my bracket, I don't care," he said. "Wisco all the way. My bad for not picking them." And if his pool paid $500,000 to the winner? "If I won, I'd donate some of it to Wisco," said Turris, laughing ... Late in the second period, Clutterbuck stepped around Karlsson for another shorthanded breakaway. This time he shot wide ... Islanders blue liner Matt "Big Country" Carkner had "sore mitts" from two fights in Tuesday's game against the Florida Panthers. The first was against fellow Ottawa native Erik Gudbranson, who took some big rights to the back of the head. Asked if he knows Gudbranson, who is 11 years his junior, Carkner said yes. "I've skated with him in the summer, we've done a few golf tournaments. Actually, in the box he asked me if I'd be available for his golf tournament this summer, but unfortunately I'm not going to be around in June so I can't do that." "

Dear Senator Simpson:
I think the last time I wrote to a sitting or former US Senator was maybe ten years ago. And I have no idea if you'll actually receive or read this.
I have long admired much about you. Your bluntness and common sense are bright spots on a bleak political landscape. Your search for sensible compromise on debt and deficits would put us on a course to fiscal sanity.
But I would like to bluntly tell you that I find your continuing public comments about abortion to be simplistic at best, condescending and propagandistic at worse. May I explain why? You know that this one issue has riven this country for decades, and is the one issue that most cries out for an elevated and intelligent level of discussion. And this goes double since it is quite literally a matter of life or death. But I find your comments about it to be divisive and worse.
I saw you on TV a few days ago saying that abortion is horrible but it's so intimate that men should not even vote about it.* News flash: the pro-life movement would probably fall over itself with gratitude and admiration if you would obtain a constitutional amendment that places the issue in the hands of female voters and legislators exclusively. That would be light years better than allowing five unelected and unaccountable lawyers of SCOTUS (mostly men by the way) to be the only ones in this country who vote and decide upon this issue, an issue which is not even remotely alluded to in the US Constitution as a limitation upon legislation.
Consider, if you will, a hypothetical. Suppose that SCOTUS in 1973 had instead decided that an embryo is a "person" fully protected by the Equal Protection Clause, and therefore no citizens or legislators can vote on the subject given that the Constitution fully protects an embryo from laws that would allow abortion. I don't believe that SCOTUS should have done so, but suppose they did. Would you still be declaring how you support the Court's removal of this subject from the clutches of voters and legislators? Of course you wouldn't. The only reason why you blather that way now is because you happen to agree with the Court's decision, and you want your personal opinion set in stone so that no one can ever change it. In other words, Senator Simpson, if I were to employ your own refreshing habit of bluntness, I would find you to be grossly hypocritical on this issue.
As this is a matter of life and death, people like me will never shut up about it and kneel before … the US Supreme Court.
You are correct that it is a sensitive and delicate issue. But your platitudes about privacy are unavailing. If a man goes to the inner sanctum of his home, and there secretly tortures his child, you would be the first to endorse state intervention, would you not? And if, as many people reasonably believe, the moment of birth does not magically convert an amorphous blob into a human being, then you have yet to justify such grossly disparate treatment of the man murdering his child versus the woman aborting her fetus.
My own view is that abortion should preferably be legal up until an embryo becomes a fetus (about seven weeks after conception). But I have signed petitions that are more overprotective than that, because they are better than your complete opposition to any fetal protection whatsoever.
I also support applying the prior restraint doctrine to abortion, so that anyone can get a safe abortion, but can then subsequently be punished for it. But these are matters that have not yet been decided by the American people, much less by the supermajority required for a constitutional amendment.
I will not expect you to actually follow through on your recent televised remark by supporting a constitutional amendment that gives this issue to this country's women to decide. I think it was just a slip of the tongue on your part.
I would not class you with the millions of … men who love abortion because it allows them to have sex without risking any child support payments. But I would class you with the millions of people who blindly cannot see that women do have a choice when they decide whether or not to have sex. I doubt you would ever let women vote on that question.
Andrew Hyman
*Simpson said: "Abortion is a horrible thing, but for heaven's sakes, a deeply intimate and personal decision and men legislators shouldn't even be able to vote on it…."

It's that time of year when US networks begin to give their new Fall shows the thumbs up or thumbs down, sometimes for a full season, more episodes or more scripts.
NBC has given the green light to The New Normal, Revolution and Go On for full seasons.
The New Normal is due to premiere in Australia on TEN on Sunday week, a comedy based around two gay men who decide to become parents and the woman who becomes surrogate.
SciFi series Revolution from producer JJ Abrams is currently fast-tracked in Australia on Foxtel. The series is set in the future when electricity and energy are no more.
"We're impressed with the imagination and creative direction of the entire team on Revolution, not to mention the immediately strong response we got from the audience," said NBC Entertainment president Jennifer Salke. "Ordering the full season of this show is a pleasure. Thanks to J.J. Abrams, Erik Kripke, Jon Favreau and everyone at Bad Robot and Warner Bros. Television for their dedication to making a truly unique series. And I personally love to escape into a world where there is no power, the phone doesn't ring, and the pace of life slows down — if only for one hour a week."
Matthew Perry's dramedy Go On also wins a full season from NBC. Perry stars as a sports broadcaster trying to move on from the loss of his wife.
"In partnering with Matthew Perry for Go On, creator Scott Silveri has created a comedy with a highly original voice that deftly combines humor and emotion. And Ryan Murphy and Ali Adler have created a truly unique family in The New Normal that is reflective of the changing dynamics of the world we live in."

Raising taxes on "carried interest" is long overdue.
I used to write a lot about the tax treatment of carried interest, or the "cut" of investment profits that private equity managers keep for themselves. I would argue that carried interest is a contingency fee for services rendered (investing other people's money), and should therefore be taxed as ordinary income (35%) rather than as capital gains (15%). You know, taxed like the rest of us.
But then I stopped. Not because my opinion changed, but because I lost faith that Congress would do the right thing.
Rep. Sanders Levin (D-MI) introduced the original legislation in 2007, but it couldn't overcome a threatened veto from President Bush. Subsequent efforts met a similar fate, despite supportive Democrats increasing their congressional majority and capturing the White House in 2008. Fed up, I promised to never write again about carried interest taxation, unless it seemed likely that politicians were finally about to close the loophole.
So it is with great trepidation that I write this post. There has been no relevant legislation introduced, but President Obama has said that changing the tax treatment of carried interest would have to be part of any grand bargain on the debt ceiling increase. And some Republicans recently indicated that they would accept certain tax code alterations in exchange for deep spending cuts, although a chance remains that the party will simply replace its symbol with one of an elephant biting off its own trunk.
Call me a cock-eyed optimist who believes that our elected leaders will ultimately choose their nation's well-being over their partisan dogmas. And, in doing so, make an overdue step toward tax fairness and simplicity.
Why change is needed
For the past ninety years, capital gains have been taxed at a lower rate than has ordinary income. The specifics have changed over time, but the core policy objective has remained constant: Encourage private sector investment, because it helps foster job growth, new company formation and other economic boons. It's an incentive for people to take financial risks that help keep America prosperous.
In many cases, people invest their own money directly and pay capital gains rates on any subsequent profits. In others, they pay an investment adviser or mutual fund manager to invest on their behalf, in exchange for a fee. The actual investor still receives capital gains treatment in these arrangements, while their adviser pays ordinary income on their fees.
Alternative investment funds, however, operate differently. They structure themselves as partnerships, so that both the investor (limited partner) and fund manager (general partner) are effectively treated as a single entity for tax purposes. Investment profits flow into the partnership as capital gains, and then are divvied up between the two sides at a pre-negotiated rate -- typically with fund managers receiving 20%.
The fundamental problem with this arrangement, of course, is that fund managers don't actually invest. Don't actually put anything at risk. If an investment goes bad, the fund manager loses only his reputation. Need proof? Ask a fund manager if he's ever claimed a capital loss on one of his fund's investments? Now ask the same question of his investors, and tell me that they're really all in it together as a partnership.
Debunking the arguments
None of this is to say that most alternative fund managers don't work hard or provide a valuable service. They source investments, negotiate terms, sit on portfolio company boards and more. And, in exchange, they are rewarded with their 20% carried interest (no matter the tax rate) and an annual management fee -- usually 2% of committed capital -- that covers overhead expenses like salary (on which fund managers pay ordinary income).
Some defenders of the current system harp on the aforementioned work, insisting that fund managers deserve capital gains treatment because the capital gain is mainly derived from their efforts. They are the ones creating value. It's a red herring.
Current tax law makes no distinction between general partners who do a lot and general partners who do a little. For example, how much value creation is being done by VC and PE firms that have invested in Facebook over the past year? Virtually none, but they currently are entitled to the same capital gains treatment as the company's earliest investors. Moreover, what about funds in which most of the carry is generated by junior partners, but in which senior partners are contractually entitled to a larger share? Why should those senior managers get capital gains treatment from profits created by someone else's work and someone else's money?
The common reply from alternative fund managers is: "Well, what about homeowners? Don't they take money from someone else (a bank) and then book a capital gain if they sell the asset at a profit?"
Yes, they most certainly do. But here's something homeowners don't do: Receive an annual management fee from the bank, in exchange for improving the house's value. If anything, service payments go in the opposite direction. And, again, homeowners can suffer a loss of equity on their homes. For fund managers, the worst they can do is collect only their management fees.
It is at this point that industry defenders return to the partnership structure: "What business is it of the government's to determine how an investor wants to split its profits? In fact, our investors would rather we have higher carried interest and lower management fees, because it better aligns our interests."
The government couldn't care less how you split your profits. It simply should have an interest in restricting its tax incentives to those it is actually trying to incent (i.e., investors). If fund managers really want to align interests, then they should make substantial investments in their own funds (many do). Profits derived from those investments would continue to be treated as capital gains, under every proposal that has come out since 2007.
Some fund managers argue that they effectively give up high up-front payments in exchange for the carry and, as such, deserve credit from the federal government. Sounds kind of like what I did at my last job, when I negotiated for a percentage of website profits instead of asking for a higher salary. Only difference is that, when my bonus arrived (due to the value I helped create based on my employer's initial investment), I got taxed at ordinary income rates.
A corollary to the partnership argument is: "But if you change the tax treatment, fewer people will choose manage funds. That will lead to fewer investments, thus defeating the primary policy objective of capital gains."
If true, this would indeed be a problem. Luckily, it's a canard. For the past four years, I've occasionally asked my email newsletter readers -- most of whom are fund managers -- to tell me if a change in tax treatment would cause them to seek other work. To date, no one has replied affirmatively. I also asked the question yesterday on Twitter, and heard only crickets and a couple fund managers who said that tax rates were irrelevant to their career plans.
Need more proof? The greatest increase in new VC fund creation was in 1999-2000. At the time, capital gains rates were substantially higher than they are today. Even more striking: There wasn't an increase in new fund creation when President Bush slashed capital gains rates in 2003.
Alternative fund managers are not created or destroyed by short-term tax considerations that can change on a congressional whim. It is a long play, in which successful fund managers can amass financial fortunes regardless of whether taxes are being paid at 15% or 35%. Think the early Zynga investors are fretting about a tax change?
To be sure, I recognize that most alternative fund managers aren't in Zynga. Or Facebook. Or Groupon. And it certainly is hard to get "in the carry," particularly because many funds must first pass a hurdle rate (i.e., minimum return on investment). But capital gains treatment was created to encourage risk-taking investment, not ambitious work. If fund managers want to apply some sort of "degree of difficulty" standard to taxes, that's their prerogative -- although I know some teachers, nurses, engineers and manual laborers who might bicker over the judging criteria.
Alternative fund managers are an important part of our capitalist economy. They simply aren't investors, and should stop being treated as such by the IRS.

Three soldiers' bodies return to UK
The bodies of three servicemen killed in separate incidents in Afghanistan will return to Britain on Thursday.
Gunner Zak Cusack, of 4th Regiment Royal Artillery, and Corporal Stephen Curley and Marine Scott Taylor, both of 40 Commando, Royal Marines, will be flown back to RAF Lyneham in Wiltshire.
A private service will be held at the base's chapel before the cortege passes through nearby Wootton Bassett. Hundreds are expected to line the town's High Street in tribute, as has become custom.
Gunner Cusack, 20, from Stoke-on-Trent, was on a routine patrol when he was killed by small arms fire from insurgent forces in an area around Enezai Village. An only child, he leaves behind his mother Tracey, father Sean and step-dad Dave.
Lieutenant Colonel Chris Squier, Commanding Officer, 4th Regiment Royal Artillery, said after his death on May 26: "Gunner Zak Cusack was a big man with the personality to go with it. Young, fit and with a healthy love of life, he was always close to, or at the heart of, the action. A Stoke City fan in the North East Gunners will always have his work cut out, but his combination of cheeky charm and buoyant character always won out."
Corporal Curley, 26, born in Dewsbury, West Yorkshire, was killed on May 26 in an explosion while on a foot patrol through the southern Green Zone to reassure local nationals.
Cpl Curley lived in Exeter with wife Kirianne and their five-month-old son William.
Mrs Curley said: "It is impossible for me to express what my husband meant to me; daddy to our 18-week-old son, William, and my partner in crime, Stevie was my purpose, what makes me tick. A man of few but powerful words when it mattered, he lived by the motto 'If you're not living life on the edge, you're taking up too much room'. This will be forever imprinted on our hearts. Stevie was a perfectionist – he prided himself on being the best and the best he was. His professionalism was highly regarded by all who knew him but it was his quirky, un-PC one-liners that really caused a stir. Steve loved to make people laugh and laugh with them."
Marine Taylor, born in Buxton, Derbyshire, was killed on May 30 by an explosion while he was part of a foot patrol, again helping to reassure the local population and to increase security in the area around Sangin.
Lt Col Paul James, commanding officer of 40 Commando Group, Combined Force Sangin, said of the 21-year-old: "Marine Scott Taylor was everything I needed in a Bootneck: proud but not arrogant, loyal but still independent, courageous but not foolhardy, he was an outstanding marine. Brave, strong, bright and physically very fit, he was an utterly selfless man, who was often unassuming, preferring instead to let his actions speak for him – and they spoke with power and tumult."

On an unique nondegenerate distribution of agents in the Huggett model
The seminal work of Huggett ["The risk-free rate in heterogeneous-agent incomplete-insurance economies", Journal of Economic Dynamics and Control, 1993, 17(5-6), 953-969] showed that there exists a unique stationary distribution of agent types, given by their individual states of asset and income endowment pairs. However, the question remains open if the equilibrium individual state space might turn out to be trivial, in the sense that every agent's common borrowing constraint binds forever. If so, the invariant probability measure of agent types will place all mass on this minimal credit level. By invoking a simple comparative-static argument, we provide closure to this open question. We thus reinforce Huggett's result of a unique stationary equilibrium distribution of agents by showing that it must also be one that is nontrivial or nondegenerate.

6 weeks post blepharoplasty and one upper eyelid is higher than the other. My doctor says he may have removed a "tiny bit too much skin" from this lid. He says that if I rub the eyelid in a downward motion I can rectify the problem. This sounds like BS to me. Could this possibly work? The eye is noticeably wider than the other, and it feels dry during the day. I'm worried that more surgery will be required. Thanks.
Rubbing Eyelid to Fix Botched Blepharoplasty?
Doctor Answers 15
Eyelid skin can be stretched after eyelid surgery
Well, in theory the upper eyelid skin can be stretched so that it allows the same, or similar, amount of tissue fold above the upper eyelid crease. The trick would be to be able to grasp the upper eyelid skin in order to apply constant, gentle downward, stretching motion. I have had patients, who had eyelid surgery elsewhere and had dry eye symptoms use a similar technique to allow complete closure of the upper eyelids. Skin stretches, so it can be done...not sure rubbing it will do the trick however, IMHO.

Eyelid asymmetry
It sounds like you have ptosis (a lower lid) on one side after surgery. If only blepharoplasty was performed this is unusual but does occur. Eyelid massage can help a number if issue. It's success depends on what is being treated and timing. The ptosis can be mechanical (from swelling), neurogenic (from nerve injury), myogenic (from muscle trauma), or simply may have been present prior and not identified (if skin was droopy and covering lid). I do not know if the latter was present. I think an evaluation by an oculoplastic surgeon would help. Good luck

No photos, no exam but here are some general comments.
Dear JPriestly
Hard as it is to believe, lid message can help many issues. It is best if it is done with close follow up by the operating surgeon. Unfortunately, it does not fix all issues. Things can happen during surgery that are not benefited by eyelid message. At 6 weeks out, I would not expect too much from eyelid message. The good news is that you are in a town with great oculoplastic surgery. I can recommend Texas Oculoplastic Consultants. They are the largest group of oculoplastic surgeons in the country and are highly qualified.

Post-blepharoplasty problem
It is difficult to assess your problem without looking at preop and postop photos. You may have underlying ptosis (droopy eyelids), facial asymmetry, postop swelling, or possibly asymmetrical surgical result. Consult an oculoplastic surgeon.

Massage can help soften the lids after bleparoplasty
If more skin has been removed, you may be able to massage the lids enough--gently--to soften the skin and make the correction. This will work for small differences, not large ones. But there is nothing to be lost. Try it and do your best; if time progresses with no improvement, you can always have a sliver of skin added. The scars are excellent and in year you may not even remember which lid was lid affected.
Eyelid Massage After Blepharoplasty
I would suggest speaking to your physician about your concern. Massage can help in situations where there may be swelling or scar tissue which must be broken up. From what you describe you may have an eyelid ptosis that was undiagnosed and needs repair, too much skin was taken off, or the eyelid is not closing for some other reason. More than the cosmetic look, I would be concerned with the dry eye symptoms and I would definitely talk with your surgeon about how to take care of dry eyes.
Massage might help
No photos to help us. Push down the forehead skin above the eye brow on the eye of concern and see if the eyelid closure is improved.........if so then maybe too much skin was removed. Regardless, I'd massage and stretch the skin downward and wait for the healing to progress. If still a problem after a few months then more surgery may be needed such as a full thickness skin graft from your other eyelid if it had some excess still present or from some other site such as lower eyelid excess skin or skin from behind the ears.
Rubbing Eyelid to Fix Botched Blepharoplasty?
Your wounds have not healed well. Give 6-9 months then you can make better judgement about the result. Scar tissues have not matured yet and with time the eyelid skin will relax.
You may require more surgery, but wait 3-6 months first
There is a possibility that you may require additional surgery but I would follow those recommendations for the time being. I would hold off any additional surgery at this point for at least 3-6 months until the swelling and healing has finalized.

Massaging the scar may help.
Hi there. Massaging your scar may help things.
Massaging a scar helps re-orient the collagen fibers. It can also help get rid of some of the extra swelling. That being said, and without examining you, I'd have to say that if there is a substantial (~1-2 mm) difference between the two lids, a revision surgery may be necessary.
Reasons for a height discrepancy between the lids could be due to any of the following (and more):
- too much skin excised from one side
- an underling asymmetry (unevenness between the two sides) before the surgery
- an underling ptosis (droopy lid) of one or both sides - before the surgery
- damage to the eyelid opening muscle/tendon on the other side making it sit lower (ptosis)
Depending on the reason, a future procedure MAY be necessary. In the meantime, massage the eyelid as this will help the scar relax and may help drop your eyelid enough to make it similar to the other side. If your eye is dry, make sure you are using artificial tears and/or a lubricant. Make sure you follow-up with your provider regularly to ensure things are progressing and your eye isn't becoming irritated.
All the best.

Barry, I will also note that my Father, who was in the Air Force and did three tours in Vietnam, being an Air Commando before anyone though about wearing a red beret and the aussie hat was actually worn in the field, has pictures of him with enough weapons and ammunition strapped on to make Rambo jealous.
He at one point time carried one or all of the following, a cut down Ithaca 37, a CAR-15, an M-1911A1, a S&W Airweight Air Crew, and a Ka-Bar.

When I was a kid I spent time with my Uncle during the summer at Andrews Air Force Base. As you know this is the place where they maintain Air Force One for the president and an entire group of planes for other dignitaries. It is also where many heads of state land during visits. Needless to say the security is pretty tight.
So, one day my cousin and I are just riding our bikes around base we found a trail. We thought we were still in the housing area, but apparently stumbled into a secure are. Literally out of nowhere came two Air Force Security guys complete with barking dog. These guys were loaded for well whatever. They asked for our ID, my Uncles name and gave us a stern lecture before sending us on our way. Later my uncle told us who these guys were wish I could remember what he actually said the name of their unit was. He said these guys are equipped with loads of advanced gear and set up to handle any imaginable threat to the planes or the people on board. He said they were all through the wooded areas and most folks never knew they were there.

i was in korea for 9/11, we were issued our weapons and empty mags. we carried empty mags for 2 months before we were issued 1 loaded mag to carry in a taped pouch, the gun was carried with an empty loaded.
upon draw and before turning in the mag each round had to be counted.

In the early 80's i was in Honduras,someone came up with the great idea of 6 rounds of .45 in the 1911,10 rounds in the 16.I got to be friends fast with the arms room E-6,two extra mags for the .45,six extra 30 rounders for the 16,all fully loaded.It was before Ollie North got caught so no one really knew we were training in Central America,i think Uncle Sammy was trying to keep unwanted events to a minimum.

In Germany starting in early 1971 we didn't draw our weapons for Guard Duty, didn't have broom sticks or anything else. In 1979-1980 I recall reading an article in Infantry Magazine entitled "Managing around Marksmanship"
in which the author-an active duty officer-noted that not only did many units skip Annual Qualification but they went on FTXs and left the small arms locked up in the Arms Room. One of the unfortunate consequences of the Vietnam Bungle was the relationship between officers and men became antagonistic and as a consequence seeing live ammunition in the hands of troops gives the brass anguish and heartburn. Plus the Army does a lousy job of training people with firearms.

Air Force
When I was an Air policeman in 1967. I was assigned to a SAC base. We were issued a M1 carbine with 3 fifteen roll mags. the top round in each mag had a red round. at the end of shift when you cleared the weapon you had to show the NCO at the clearing barrel the mag in the weapon and then rack the bolt. Because we guarded nuclear weapon we were a authorized to use deadly force. When I whet to Vietnam I worked in air transportation. I was assigned to a remote airfield to support some freebases. I was issued a M16 and 5 twenty round mags. no side arm. the ncoic had to fight with command to get each member of the team a .38 cal SW combat masterpiece. early on we had to get permission to fire back when fired on. we stopped asking after we were damn near overrun by VC. We did not have any army or marine support. I was sent to Saudi Arabia in 1984 no weapons guarded my the locals. the Hotel was attacked by a car bomber. he was killed by an SP who happened to be running around the perimeter and snatched a M16 for a Saudi guard who was standing there watch the bad guy drive thru the barrcads. the SP was shipped home that night. caused some problem for the US. And Yes He Saved a bunch to American lives.

Honestly? The military would rather sacrifice a troop than teach them proper weapons handling and keeping weapons in a state of readiness.
I was an active duty MP for over 8 years and only remember once or twice that weapons were charged on duty outside the range.
Then I got out and went to the police academy where the Gunsite modern technique was taught. Talk about an eye opening experience..... For once I actually had to quickly learn to think for myself and determine the state of readiness I wanted my weapon in.

While on guard duty in Vietnam, our orders were to keep over M16s unloaded untill ordered to load them.

The only time I have had a loaded magazine while in CONUS was doing ammo watch on the ranges overnight and that was handed off to the oncoming 'firewatch.' The other time was doing a Joint Task Force mission along the border. We were always condition 4 though.
Down range on the larger bases, we're almost always condition 4 but you are required to carry a magazine. Whether you do or don't is on you. I have never seen anyone denied a magazine, unless of course they have had psycological issues..Earlier in this deployment (Afg), we slept with our weapons condition 1 in our sleeping bag while having someone on the condition 3 crew served in the truck. However, we were living out of our trucks in the middle of the desert. The only other time I haven't had rounds was flying into country or driving in Kuwait. In Kuwait though, at least one person on each bus had a full mag for the m16.

This is all blowing my mind that there were ever unloaded weapons carried by military police. Like someone said earlier^ a lot of things have changed since 9/11. For example, they're not unloaded anymore.

Public; armed forces; articles of war, UCMJ, ROEs-SOPs...
This is going slightly off subject but many citizens or members of the general public have little or no clear understanding of how/when/where most active duty or reserve military carry/use small arms(pistols shotguns rifles etc).
US service members must obey & follow lawful orders. They must also adhere to formal SOPs or ROEs(rules of engagement). Some US citizens working as PSCs(private security contractors) like the shooting event in Pakistan or the Blackwater(Xe) events in OIF/Iraq are under the same legal conditions re; SOFAs(Status of Forces Agreements) or the UCMJ(uniform code of military justice).
Many people watch shows like NCIS or 24 and think real military events are the same way but it does not work. For details see; the JAG section of www.army.mil .

From E-1 to E-8, I've only carried a round in the chamber a very few times
Classified Documents: 1911 .45 round chambered, normally a 12 gauge, 870 or sometimes a Ithaca 37, No round in the chamber
Cash Transfer: See above
G7 meeting in 1987 in Venice: I had the honor of being a BM2 for President Reagan, and had the the SS take my magazines away from my 1911
Gulf war part I: only had one round in a 1911, when the Marine's were playing with certain things at the piers at Earle NJ.
Gulf war part II: I ermmmmm. kinda borrowed a 1911 from the armory at Little Creek Va, I did bring it back
My last posting was Henderson Hall, they tried to issue me a M9, I found an old marine E-7, He had a 1911 still hidden somewhere
Round in the chamber, always
Edit, OK I have a 1911 thing LoL
