Non-profit organizations do not have to pay property taxes. This is a accurate statement, but there are stipulations that affect the rule. First thing has to be defined is if the organization is actually non-profit. Non-profit and therefore they do not have any earnings made from monies received. The other qualification may be the non-profit organization has to be identified by the government as a being approved activity to claim the exemption for property taxes. You need to know the actual laws of the specific state to know if your organization is tax exempt.
The most common non-profit organizations tend to be nursing homes, social program groups, hospitals, galleries and museums, cemeteries, churches and universities. Any property utilized solely for performances for dance or even musicals or any literary adventures and buildings that house historic collections are also exempt through paying or owing property taxes. The union hall however is not exempt from home taxes unless in addition they offer some training inside the building, then they can qualify for taxes exempt status. To be eligible for exempt status from property taxes, an organization need to fill out an application that is submitted to the state taxing committee.
Properties that are exempt from property taxes are not allowed to have any monetary profit, if the organization allows a group to utilize the property for profit, they are able to and will lose the particular status of a non-profit home whether is for their particular gain or another person's. The guidelines for tax exempt properties are very strict. If the organization market a property to a new proprietor that new owner is subject to home taxes. If it is another non-profit group, they need to document an application for duty exempt status. If the rentals are qualified for taxes exempt status, it is not for your current year, it is for the next tax 12 months.
One example of a non-tax exempt property is a house used like a church. For example, if a house is used being a church, there can be not one other uses allowed. Nobody will reside in the house as a permanent renter. This would then alter the status of the house and also disqualify it from a tax exempt status. The property income taxes would be owed in line with the county clerks information. Local governments would certainly review the issues with the church, but if it's found to be used like a residence, the status is automatically changed to property possessed for profit.
Some creating that are land noticeable as historical places may qualify for duty exempt property taxes. You can find however strict recommendations for determining the particular exemption of home taxes. To determine if the property is exempt from house taxes, one need to go through a review procedure, the community's historical modern society committee usually holds that review. As you can tell there are many steps to consider for exemption associated with property taxes, this not something is offered out without a lot of review and assessment. A property owner must present all information pertaining to the non-profit firm to prove simply no profit is being produced.
Basically begin a nonprofit organization that provides money for worthy causes would I be looked at a professional? Wouldso would I make an earnings personally from creating and managing a nonprofit?
Will it be tax deductable in line with the worth of the land?
I've heard lots of my liberal buddies say they would like to remove tax free status for places of worship who promote a political view. I do not completely disagree with this particular concept, but wouldn't that has to be used fairly to any or all non-profits who're partisan. That will mean no breaks for moveon.org, Students of Liberty, Freedomworks, ACORN, and much more groups. Wouldn't this type of law be religious discrimination?
I've got a small nonprofit organization that's not registered like a 501(c)3, not tax free, holds no property or accounts, and doesn't give receipts for tax purpose to contributor. We offer local desperate kids with new school clothes at the outset of each school year. We have been operating for several many have elevated under $2000 every year (and practically spend lower to zero every year and begin again). I would consider being a 501(c)3, but was concerned I would not have the ability to pay the help I should make this happen properly – like legal and accounting costs. So, to date we have ongoing to function like a grass-roots kind of organization.
My problem is we have certificates of Incorporation in the condition that was released like a initial step within our ideas to become 501(c)3. It was made by handing over articles of incorporation along with a small condition fee. We have compensated the little fee every year to help keep current hoping of eventually finishing the 501(c)3 process. We don't file condition of federal taxes. Don't let be and just what don't let do how to rectify the final three years?
I'm selling a house I own to some nonprofit organization for under it had been evaluated for or worth. Can One subtract the main difference between what it's worth and just what I offered it for? I understand my CPA can answer this but I wish to know a bit more before I result in the telephone call.

test cricket | Make Time For Sports.
Sports biopics are the flavour of the past few years in Bollywood.
But have they really been worth catching on the big screen?
'Bhaag, Milkha, Bhaag' was phenomenal.
And 'Budhia: Born To Run' with its almost documentary-like yet moving treatment of the young boy from Orissa who languishes in a sports hostel, still banned from running by the state, was worth a dekko.
But you can't say much about 'Azhar' or, for that matter, 'Sultan', a fictional wrestler's story, that enjoyed blockbuster success at the box office.
I haven't seen 'Mary Kom' but I'm against the very concept of having a Punjabi actress depict a North-Eastern boxing icon.
Gautam Gambhir stirred a hornet's nest on Twitter with his remarks criticizing the trend of biographical films on cricketers.
And these Jawans sacrifice their lives for paltry salaries n not disproportionate money & adulation reserved for us cricketers. Wake up.
My detractors got it wrong. Am not against ANY ONE cricketer's biopic, am against d very concept which includes a biopic on my life.
Given that Neeraj Pandey's 'MS Dhoni: The Untold Story' was slated for release in the upcoming weeks, many of Dhoni's fans questioned Gambhir's intent and timing.
Was the Delhi cricketer taking a potshot at his former skipper? It is no secret that Gambhir could have been in the running for the captain's post had his stint in the side continued.
James Erskine's 'Sachin: A Billion Dreams' is also expected to be in theatres in the near future.
I, for one, saw nothing wrong with the left-hander's statements.
Successful cricketers are accorded the status of demi-gods in India. Reams of traditional and online media are dedicated to telling and retelling the stories of their humble beginnings.
Gambhir is right that we need to focus on real heroes who have devoted their lives to the country whether it be on the battlefield, social service or business.
Yet, sports other than cricket need heroes to follow and for every successful sportsperson, there are countless others who have tried and given their best—participating or coaching.
Wouldn't you like to know the story of Ramakant Achrekar?
How about Sakshi Malik's coach Kuldeep Malik who is yet to receive his cash award of Rs. 5 lacs? He has in his possession a photo-copied cheque instead!
Celebrate India's successful sporting stars? Yes, do. But don't forget those who helped them become great and in the process made this country greater—in all spheres.
Team India appears to have turned the corner with Manish Pandey's scintillating ton ending the losing spree of games in the ODI series. The spin bowlers and newcomers Hardik Pandya and Jasprit Bhumra joined the party in the first T20. The scoreline now reads 4-2 if the matches were an eight game series.
It has been my pet theory that if Indian batsmen do well in South Africa, Australia, England and New Zealand, they can be counted on as long-term prospects and should be persisted with more than any other batters who may pile up runs by the dozen on the subcontinent but who come up a cropper against the antipodeans and the English.
Towards this end, I decided to gather some stats about how Indian batters have fared against the above four teams in their home conditions.
The following is a list of Indian batters who average above 30 against South Africa, New Zealand, England and Australia overseas.
The list is illustrious reading like a who's who of Indian cricket in Tests with Mahendra Singh Dhoni bringing up the rear with an average of 30.58 with a highest score of 92 in 32 Tests and 55 innings.
Virender Sehwag, surprisingly, ranks just above him with an average of 33.11 from 29 matches and 54 innings. His highest score is 195 with four centuries to his name.
Let's look at the list of players who have averaged over 30 in ODIs.
Virat Kohli tops this list with an average of 41.35 from 34 innings with four tons and a highest score of 123. Rohit Sharma follows with 40.71 from 32 innings and three hundreds.
Surprising entries in this list include Sunny Gavaskar, Ravindra Jadeja and Suresh Raina.
For an orthodox player, Gavaskar proved to be versatile and averages 38.94 from 21 innings with a highest score of 92 not out. Gavaskar scored just one hundred in the ODI format in 1987 in his penultimate game against New Zealand.
Jadeja makes this list—placed somewhere in the middle—with 35.84 from 21 innings with a highest score of 87. Dhoni's faith in him might not be misplaced after all.
Dhoni's other blue-eyed boy Raina averages 31.03 from 30 innings with a highest score of 100. He brings up the rear followed by Virender Sehwag with 30.2 from 35 innings. Evidently Sehwag was not the impact player against these four sides in their backyard. These are stats though and stats never tell the whole story.
The above two tables are for players who have played a minimum of 20 Tests or 20 ODIs.
There are no equivalent statistics for T20s. There are no players who average above 30 and have played 20 T20 games.
The following table lists batters who have averaged over 30 since Jan 1, 2005 against the four sides.
Amit Mishra is the anomaly averaging 84 from one innings.
Except for Dinesh Karthik who did well overseas especially in England and Gambhir who's still struggling for form, the rest are rightly pencilled in by the selectors when it comes to choosing a Test side.
In ODIs, Pandey's recent exploits see him top the list. Rayudu, Uthappa and Parthiv Patel offer the selectors an abundance of riches when it comes to choosing a replacement for MS Dhoni. Yusuf Pathan makes the list as well with a stupendous average of 46.75 from six innings.
The list of T20 players throw no surprises either.
These statistics , of course, don't provide any sign of deserving talent among batters who have not appeared for India against these four sides in India colours.
India 'A' sides have toured overseas and Indian batters have prospered in hostile conditions. Those stats could have provided a larger picture of prospective talent.
But for me, it's a no-brainer that if Indian batters have scored runs heavily overseas in these four nations, they are likely to do even better elsewhere and especially in home conditions.
Let no one tell you otherwise, least of all, MS Dhoni.

"Right about what?" boomed Meringue the Meerkat.
I step in before the cacophony becomes more deafening.
"So, he's right?"said Chloe the Chicken.
Chloe is a huge Virat fan and has a collection of postcards of the dashing youngster from Delhi. The ones featuring Anushka Sharma are carefully culled and snipped so as to exclude the sultry actress.
"True! True! True!" said Meringue the Meerkat.
"I believe that Saurav Ganguly was the best Indian skipper in recent times. He had the desire and the will to do well overseas. Similarly, Rahul Dravid and Anil Kumble. Is Virat in that mould? Or does he prefer easy wins on muddy patches?" I added.
"Muddy patches! Muddy patches! Muddy patches!" squawked Popper the Parakeet.
"And what do you think of Virat's statements about non-international cricketers passing judgment on his leadership? Do you agree that they don't have the credentials to criticise Indian cricket's latest golden boy?" moderates Chloe the Chicken.
"Well, well, well, that's settled. Virat Kohli is both right and wrong. A fine batsman, a fine cricketer, a fine leader but yet to become a fine man," responded Chloe the Chicken.
"Hear! Hear! Hear!" echoed Meringue the Meerkat.
"Hear! Hear! Hear!" echoed Popper the Parakeet too.
Aggression in the time of Virat Kohli: Justified or not?
What if I told you it isn't so?
It's not aggressive teams that triumph but offensive ones i.e. teams that play offense as against defence.
It's of significance because Team India—in cricket—have turned over a new leaf under Virat Kohli's leadership and Ravi Shastri's stewardship.
They are playing aggressive cricket—always looking to win and willing to give as good as they get on the field.
This is the New India—the India borne of the BCCI's clout and Indian cricketer's early exposure via the IPL to the rigors and pressures of international cricket.
They are fearless, they will not give a damn or that's what they would have you and I believe.
They have something their predecessors lacked—attitude.
It's not that Indian cricket hasn't seen aggressive skippers before.
Sourav Ganguly was a brat as skipper—irrepressibly keeping Steve Waugh waiting for the toss and tearing off his shirt at Lord's when they clinched the NatWest trophy.
He was also extremely successful—but his success came from his recognition that to win overseas, he had to build a conveyor belt of world-class pacers to be able to take on the English, South Africans, Australians and New Zealanders at their own game in their favoured conditions.
Ganguly's churlishness was reactive; he had a point to make. Indians did not like to play tough or rough but would do so when push came to shove. They were not to be cowed or rolled over that easily.
Mahendra Singh Dhoni for all his tactical acumen in ODI cricket wasn't as successful as Ganguly when it came to playing abroad.
He was more a defensive skipper; he would rather ensure that the game was not lost before seeking the win.
Virat Kohli's assertion that he would play five bowlers and let the specialist batters do their job is a breath of fresh air.
If he can find the right personnel to do the job, it is a strategy that can pay huge dividends.
What would Kohli not give to to have had Dravid, Ganguly, Laxman and Tendulkar—in their prime—in this side? No disrespect to the current bunch of cricketers but they have miles to go before Indian fans sleep.
An essay titled "Aggression in sport" on site believeperform.com defines it as "any form of behaviour directed toward the goal of harming of injuring another live being who is motivated to avoid such treatment".
While viewed as a negative psychological characteristic, aggression can improve performance.
Assertive behaviour happens when a player will play within the rules of the game with high intensity but has no intention of harming his opponent(s).
What could be the source of this aggression?
Frustration due to goal blockage is considered one reason.
Situational and personal factors are other reasons i.e. a player's personality and socially learnt cues that trigger an outburst of emotion are determining factors.
Stress can have a negative impact on performance and can even increase the possibility of injuring oneself.
The pressure to perform constantly, poor form and high expectations can all affect players adversely.
It is also not easy for focused athletes to balance their lives especially their non-sporting commitments.
"Anger is a normal emotion. Anger is neither good nor bad, and no judgment need be attached to it. Some people believe that a problem arises if a person becomes angry. This idea is not true. To pass judgment on anger and condemn those who admit to becoming angry is the equivalent of robbing people of their humanness. Disallowing oneself from any part of the human experience weakens the experience in its totality. Sadness gives a reference point that makes happiness more appreciated. Tension can be better understood when compared with relaxation. It is about time we stopped making value judgments about anger. No one has ever gotten in trouble for becoming angry. You could be furious right now, but no one would know it unless you demonstrated some behaviour associated with the anger. The belief that anger is bad is so strongly engrained that people will sometimes deny its existence even when it is spilling out all over the place. We have all heard someone with a red face expel incendiary words accompanied by saliva and then follow up by saying, 'I am not angry!'.The bad rap that anger has received has made it even more resistant to examination.
Abrams also elaborates on the difference between incidental and reactive or hostile violence in sport.
Ishant Sharma's outbursts on the field in Sri Lanka that led to a one-match ban is an example of reactive aggression. Sharma was reacting to what he believed was provocative behaviour on his opponent Dhammika Prasad's part. He also appears to take his cue from his skipper's aggressive nature on the field.
Virat Kohli was not seen to be rebuking his star 'pupil'.
Instead the Delhi player glossed over his Ranji mate's behaviour.
Kohli, too, doesn't seem to believe that he has matured as a skipper despite the historic series win in Sri Lanka.
Former players are a divided camp when it comes to their reactions to Virat's all-out-aggression.
Fast bowlers Sreesanth and Venkatesh Prasad were quite enthusiastic about Kohli's handling of Ishant.
Former cricketer Akash Chopra had other thoughts.
"Aggression for me is not just verbal aggression. For me the kind of determination and grit shown by Cheteshwar Pujara during his unbeaten century in the third Test was also aggression. Virat might have backed Ishant in front of the media, but I am sure he will not be pleased to lose his premier bowler for the Mohali Test. The Mohali pitch has been known to assist pace bowlers in the past.
Ishant bowled superbly right from his very first ball of the first Test in Galle. There was no doubt that the defeat in the Galle Test was demoralizing for the team. We are not privy to conversations in the dressing room, but the entire team, and Ishant in particular, seemed pumped up for the challenge for the second Test at the P Sara Oval.
Ganguly is, however, quite pleased with Kohli.
Steve Waugh believes that every cricketer should be passionate when he turns out in his country's colours. He feels that Kohli is in the Ganguly 'mould'.
"I don't know what a gentleman's game means. But as long as it is played in the right spirit. You'd be disappointed if the Indian side had no passion because they are representing 1.2 billion people. The Australian side represents 24 million people.
There is a lot at stake when you are playing for your country. You want passion. Sometimes that can bubble over but you want to see the emotion and see them really wanting to do well. You don't want to cross the line where it becomes unsportsmanlike but that can happen occasionally in any sport. We want to see players with emotion and passion.
He (Kohli) plays aggressively and I guess his captaincy is a bit in the Sourav Ganguly mould, where he can be in your face and he can be a bit prickly at times. But I don't mind that, I am happy to see that.
As a captain, he is never going to back down or be trampled upon by the opposition and that's a good thing for India.
Ishant Sharma's childhood coach Shravan Kumar is displeased with his ward's new-found aggro.
"He bowled very well but got too aggressive. That is something he could have avoided. Aggression is fine as long as you are not making a physical contact or abusing. There should not be any body contact. If you do that then you are penalised. That is what happened with Ishant.
It (Ishant becoming overtly aggressive) is because of Kohli's aggressiveness. He believes in playing fearless cricket and doesn't hold back. The atmosphere of the dressing room is to play fearless and that rubbed off on Ishant too. But fearless does not necessarily mean that you become ill-mannered. What happened was in bad taste.
Ishant is back home but I have not spoken to him yet. I will give him my piece of mind when I meet him. Aggression is acceptable if you are getting the batsman out, else there is no point of being belligerent.
Sanjay Manjrekar is another who has his doubts over Team India's newly adopted philosophy.
What I can't fathom about these send-offs is: when a wicket falls, it means the batsman has failed and the bowler has succeeded, but it's the bowler who is angry for some reason. Why should anger follow success?
If Steve Waugh, Ricky Ponting and Michael Holding have their way, there will be no more commemorative coins to toss while celebrating special Test occasions.
Former Aussie skipper Ponting suggested—during the recent Ashes series—that the toss be done away with and have the visiting side choose which side should bat first. This would even out any advantage from pitches prepared to suit the home side.
In his previous post, the West Indian fast bowler elaborated on what makes a side great.
"Great teams can win home and away, and good teams will win at home. It's as simple as that. I don't personally see much wrong with that, to be honest. It comes down to how people classify them. Teams should only be qualified as 'great' only if they can perform all over the world, and can excel everywhere. If they don't, they're not a great team, and that's fine.
I don't think the boards should actively try and do something about making it even, you don't need to say: 'okay, we have to find a way of making sure teams can do well overseas'. On the contrary, talk to the individuals, the players who are actually playing and performing, and see what necessary adjustments should be done for them to be successful when they leave their homes. There is nothing wrong with people failing away from home as far as world cricket is concerned. I don't think they should try and make an adjustment. If you can, you can. If you're not good enough, you're just not good enough.
Having said that, when you go to some countries, the pitches are prepared in such a way that they are highly in favour of the home team. And I'm talking about even going to some parts of the subcontinent, in India, for instance, where you find – not necessarily now, but quite a few years ago – pitches that turn from day one. It didn't matter who was touring India, because they knew they had great spinners, and they would be brought into the game from day one.
In England, they changed the nature of the pitches altogether, because they recognised that without seaming pitches, they had no chance of beating Australia. As I said before, I don't see it as a major factor when you say teams are better at home than overseas, but if you want to have consistent pitches in countries, then you have got to adapt the principle that Ricky Ponting suggested – get rid of the toss.
Will the ICC look into the matter?
We don't wish to see series everywhere decided by the toss and pitches suited to the home side.
We'd like to watch real contests and adaptable players, not bully boys who score by the tons and take wickets by the dozen in their backyards and come up a cropper elsewhere.
We need classy players and their class should be evident on all surfaces and in all conditions.
Take away the toss if that's what's needed.
Prepare sporting wickets if that's what's needed.
Make curators more independent if that's what's needed.
Just don't let Test cricket die.
Ishant Sharma is earning both plaudits and criticism.
If the bouquets are for his stirring performances with the ball, the brickbats are for the blatant aggression on the field that has not just seen him fined 65% of his match fee but also found him in violation the ICC's Code of Conduct.
The new-found aggression and maturity (as a fast bowler) has not gone unnoticed.
Dilip "Colonel" Vengsarkar considers the lanky pacer his find.
Amit Mishra had this to say about Ishant's efforts with the ball in the first innings of the second Test.
Another former fast bowler, Chetan Sharma, believes that Ishant is a much improved player now.
Fellow Delhiite, Ashish Nehra, was slightly back-handed with his compliments.
"I am a big fan of Umesh Yadav — talentwise even though he has not fulfilled his true potential as to what he should have achieved by now. He is somewhat similar to me but my case was more to do with injuries. Varun (Aaron) and Bhuvi (Bhuvneshwar Kumar) are also talented.
But Ishant Sharma, who has played 60 Test matches (62) is the least talented among them but one of the most hardworking guys around.
If Nehra is right in that Ishant is the least talented among the current crop of pace men, then Indian cricket is blessed indeed.
Nehra spoke at length about Sharma.
The Delhi bowler believes that fast bowlers do better when they enjoy the confidence of their skippers.
Sharma seems to have no such problems on this score with his current leader, Virat Kohli.
Scribes might have expected some censure from India's fire-brand captain given that Sharma will now miss the first home Test against South Africa for his aggressive send-offs in the third Test and the war of words with opposition players.
The spring in the step is back and very much evident. After two hard-fought series in England and Australia where the Indians came off second-best, they appeared a much more hardy bunch in Sri Lanka. The score-line could very well have read 3-0 instead of 2-1 if the Indians had plugged away as they did in the last two Tests. It is a team sport and moments of personal brilliance and stellar performances can at most win you a Test or two. It takes consistent togetherness and toughness to pull through a gruelling series.
South Africa at home will be the real Test. Can Team India do an encore?


Growing up I was always taught to be able to take care of myself, and I had no real understanding of stay-home life. My mother is a dedicated and successful career woman who is sweet and generous to a fault. My dad is a Jack Of All Trades with versatile interests and knowledge – a great resource for applicable life-lessons like how to be a better athlete, win Jeopardy, or cook a meal from scratch. Both of my parents have worked full-time, sometimes more, since I was born.
Working for myself was never something I had considered, and being a stay at home wife or mom felt like an old fashioned ideal – neither lifestyle seemed practical. I used to think that those who "got to" stay home or be their own boss must have an easy, problem-free life. <— So wrong! Since transitioning into full-time freelancing, the realities of entrepreneurship and stay-home life have been surprising, to say the least.
It only takes recognizing your skills and passions to create a business.
Self-employment comes with consistent sacrifice: time, money, hobbies, comforts etc.
With self-employment, there's serious pressure associated with time management & productivity.
Self-employment & stay-home life will come with moments where you'll feel very lonely.
Self-employment & stay-home life can make you feel guilty from time to time.
For some, being a stay-home spouse or parent is both their dream job and full-time work.
Being a stay-home spouse or parent will cause resentment if it's done out of obligation vs love.
Being a stay-home spouse or parent requires a humble heart and supportive S.O.
Like parenting (I imagine), entrepreneurship is like caring for a baby – seriously hard work. Thankfully, you never get sick of working on your passion and every sacrifice is totally worth it (this is what parents tell me). Sure, there are days when the last thing I want to do is pitch content to clients, edit photos, do laundry or make dinner, but it gives me immense joy to be needed and know I'm pursuing my dreams. No-one can ever take this time away from me. I will always be able to say I pursued my passion, and if this pursuit one day leads me back into the corporate world, I will be able to apply unique skills and wisdom gained from my stay-home life.


I was not raised in a family that flew. My first flight was from Seattle to Frankfurt as a teen-aged exchange student. I still remember looking out of the window over the north Atlantic and seeing the icebergs below in the ocean. I thought of the Titanic. I had read A Night to Remember, about the sinking of the Titanic in the north Atlantic. I was so tense during that entire trip that my whole body felt like one large cramp. I had a terrible migraine and was vaguely nauseous. But, I was going to Germany, which is what I had worked for years to be able to do. And everyone around me seemed to be taking the experience of flying for granted . . .
When I got back home I said I wasn't going back to Europe until they installed a bus line across the Atlantic. This turned out not to be the case. There is still no bus line, and I have been back to Europe several times.
I had to learn to fly for work. Earlier in my career, not only was there no worldwide web, but the professional development opportunities in town were paltry. I began to fly several times a year for training. One night before a flight to Dallas, my husband and I went to the local Rose Festival and rode the Octopus again and again so that I could steel myself for the flight next day. It helped. Though, all the way to Dallas I only read one and a half pages of the novel I'd brought with me—again and again and again.
These days, I often sit by the window and am perfectly comfortable looking out during takeoff, but not so much during landing. I'm less panicked if I can't sit over the wing, though I don't like to sit in the tail. Ironically, on a trip back from Berlin two summers ago, I ended up in the last row. The advantage to that is that you're close to the duty free shop, I learned. What a lovely collection of perfumes they had on board that flight!
A friend of mine who flies a lot for pleasure said to me a couple of years ago that, yes, your life is in danger and your safety is out of your hands once you get on the plane, but you just have to let go and accept it, let it happen. It's true. Thinking of a plane as a flying coffin doesn't help much. Envisioning all the contagion being pumped through the HVAC system doesn't help much either.
For many years, I found that every time I fly more than three hours, I get a sinus infection. It's a misery, and I dread it. In the last two or three years, I've learned some techniques to minimize the severity and likelihood. Last year, I even flew a few times with no negative outcomes at all. Same thing about that trip to Berlin, it occurs to me.
I'm thinking about all these things as I'm going to be on a plane at 6 a.m. tomorrow. Fortunately, it's a short flight, and I won't be gone from home long. And, best of all, friends have agreed to keep my dog so he won't have to be boarded, so a great worry is relieved there. And the hotel I'm going to has a saltwater pool, which makes the entire trip worth it!
I'm flying for training again. No way to get this training within driving distance. Believe me, I've looked. And, I want that knowledge, so off I go.
The night before I fly, I don't sleep. This is not a plan. Sleep just doesn't come. I plan to give the back porch a thorough cleaning, so there's a silver lining to all this.
When I made that first trip to Germany many years ago, I had lived most of my life in semi-rural to very rural environments. When you're on horseback on a hot summer's day with no one else for miles around or maybe only one friend along for the ride, contagion and crashing are not your biggest concerns. And, the earth asserts its personality. Your fate can seem to be more in your own hands. Likely, living that way, you have skills on board for finding water, making fire, finding food, defending yourself against predators—and we did.
Thirty years ago, I moved to what has become a rather large city. It's grown up around me, and many different kinds of people live here now. Urbanites. And, we have become an urban-identified people here in the US in the last several years, speaking statistically.
Two years ago, I had the pleasure of hearing Sully Sullenberger keynote a conference. You may remember him. He landed that plane on the Hudson. Last year I went to see the movie. It was really great, but they didn't highlight something there that Sully did seem to intentionally drive home in his speech. The only reason that everyone survived that emergency landing was that the crew followed their training exactly and every single person did their part to get themselves and each other out of the plane as quickly as possible. They cooperated. More than that, they collaborated around the common interest of everyone getting out alive.
Should the plane I'm on tomorrow morning need to make an emergency water landing somewhere along the way, I certainly hope there are a lot of quick collaborators on that plane!
A city, once it gets to a certain size, is kind of like an airplane. We become very dependent on the same air and water supply. No wells here! If a disaster occurs, we're not likely to be able to get out. We need shelter in place capabilities and excellent cooperation skills.
This all says something about leadership at all levels. The film, Sully: Miracle on the Hudson, provided a dramatic re-enactment of the landing and evacuation of the plane. People were panicked, reaching out to loved ones on their cell phones, fearful of their physical ability to withstand the shock of landing and ability to exit, and the cabin crew were chanting "Brace! Brace! Heads down. Stay down," even though they were also terrified.
In his keynote speech, Sully emphasized again and again that the only reason everyone survived was that everyone, including every passenger, followed the known emergency procedures and helped everyone else. I think life is a lot like that. But, we're still trying to figure out what that actually means. Especially here in America.

A Bendigo cyclist has urged motorists to be more mindful of who's on the road after a terrifying incident in the past week. Daniel Lagodzki said he was riding home from work on Thursday afternoon around 3pm when a motorbike rider pushed him from behind. "I don't really know how it happened, it all happened really fast," Mr Lagodzki said. "I was riding along on Harrison Street in the bike lane from work when someone basically shoved me. "I looked back and saw that it was a motorbike and it kept going. It crept up from behind and didn't yell at me or anything because I wasn't doing anything wrong. "Even if I was doing the wrong thing, that's no excuse for this behaviour." Mr Lagodzki wasn't pushed off his bike from the incident and was able to grab a photo. The avid cyclist said this wasn't the first time he'd heard of a cyclist being targeted by other road users in Bendigo and he decided to go public with his incident to warn other cyclists. "I didn't fall off but scared me quite a bit," he said. "I was probably going close to 30km so If I had of come off or hit a car it could've been a lot worse. "Nothing like this has happened to me before, I still get occasional person who doesn't give right distance. "I'm an avid cyclist and I tend to go off-road because of drivers not doing the right thing." Our journalists work hard to provide local, up-to-date news to the community.

The Smithtown Highway Department building has been renamed.
Smithtown, NY - August 27, 2013 - The Smithtown Highway Department's building was renamed after former Highway Superintendent and St. James resident, James Dowling. Family, friends, present and former employees and local elected officials attended the ceremony at the highway department. Suffolk County Legislator Lynne Nowick who has known Mr. Dowling for most of her life said, "This is a wonderful occasion and Jim Dowling is so deserving of this honor. The Smithtown Senior Center is named after my father, former Town Councilman Eugene Cannataro, so I understand how meaningful this is to him and his family." "I'm sure my dad is smiling down at him," Legislator Nowick added.

STUNNING NEW ORIGINAL OIL PAINTING ON CANVAS "Wildfire 3"...............By the Amazing Artist Graham Milton.
Measurements; height inches x inches (cms x cms)
Oil on Canvas .............
Ref only; asgard-arts.com
Graham Milton- The epic skyscapes of Graham Milton are beautiful panoramic visions which reflect not only the enormity and variety of the sky, but also capture its ever-changing drama. Influenced by artists from Turner to Rothko, Graham paints the sky because "it has such a profound effect on us as human beings. We have such a strong connection with the sun and the sky that it can influence our mood, and also trigger a sense of wonder."
Graham Milton was born in London in 1965. He completed an Art and Design Masters degree at Central Saint Martin's (London) in 1997, where he attained a distinction. He has gone on to be a highly successful independent artist; his paintings have been exhibited at the National Portrait Gallery in London and the Scottish National Gallery, Edinburgh.
Graham travels extensively and his journeys have inspired many of his stunning oil paintings. He also works in his Sussex studio and on occasion simply taps into his imagination and memory to paint a series on a particular theme. He begins work at 10 in the morning and often works straight through to 9 at night, only stopping briefly for fear of losing the natural flow of his homogeneous compositional style.
Graham has been a finalist in the prestigious BP Portrait Award two years in a row. His work is in collections across the UK,Europe & Whitewall Galleries.

How do I accomplish this when the rest of my school is traditional?
This is a question I get asked often, as I am one of very few in my school district that are standards based. I work in a large district, so many times my students are only standards based for my class, and then spend the rest of their day in a more traditional setting.
I feel that the first step in this transitional feat is to genuinely make the paradigm shift to Standards Based Learning and Grading. Make the commitment to change the culture of your classroom. Once you have made the shift, it seems impossible to go back. I cannot imagine returning to a traditional grading system. I am driven to provide my students the best learning experience possible and I refuse to let a traditional system get in the way. Once you believe learning is paramount over assigning points, scores, and letters – you are probably past the point of no return. You will not sacrifice student learning because of the system in place.
After you make the paradigm shift, it is time for some creativity. I have had to create my own system within a system. I am required to give letter grades at progress report time and semester. I made my computerized grade book work for me, not against my beliefs. I designed learning experiences and aligned assessments to my standards and values as an educator.
Another concern I hear frequently is regarding pushback. Won't my parents, students, colleagues, even administration push back against something so different? The short answer is yes. You will get feedback both positive and negative about making the change. The key is to take all of it and grow and learn yourself. Communicate with all your stakeholders as much as possible about why you chose to transition. Explain that you made the shift in the interest of student learning, growth, and improvement. Help them make progress along with you.
If this still feels daunting, know you are not alone. I implore you to stay the Standards Based journey no matter how difficult. We stand together for our students. We need to create cultures that support our students, not ones that encourage compliance and fear. Reach out for support when you need it, there are plenty of people who believe in this structure and are willing to help you, myself included.
It's really hard to be the only SBG teacher in a traditional grading school. Part of my struggle is getting my students to understand that they aren't being coddled. They don't understand that the reason I give multiple chances to show proficiency is that I expect much more learning of them than the rest of their teachers do.
It was disheartening the other day to overhear two of my AP Chem students discussing whether to study for my test or their calculus test. One said to the other, "Obviously you study for calc. because that's a legit test. It doesn't matter if you f*** up in here, you just make up the standards later." Not what I had in mind.
I'm very interested in the system you devised to function in both the traditional and standards-based worlds. I am in the same exact situation: large district, traditional based, grades are numeric. I haven't been able to wrap my head around how to move to a standards based while meeting the requirements of my district. Would you share your system? Thanks!

County commissioners in Michigan, Michigan Wolverines football players, Living people, 1944 births
Dick Vidmer
Position(s): Quarterback
College: Michigan
Richard F. "Dick" Vidmer (born December 24, 1944) was an American football player who played quarterback for the University of Michigan Wolverines football teams from 1965 to 1967.
A native of Greensburg, Pennsylvania, Vidmer played quarterback for Hempfield High School in the early 1960s.[1] He was one of the finest prep quarterbacks ever produced in the State of Pennsylvania.[2] He was recruited by many schools, including Ivy League schools, but enrolled at the University of Michigan.
File:Dick Vidmer (1967).png
As a freshman in 1964, Vidmer suffered a broken leg and torn ankle ligaments during a football practice session.[2] Vidmer never recovered fully from the injury, recalling later, "I was never able to move around like I could before. It made a difference in my effectiveness. I was not as formidable a player as I once was."[2] He started only three games in the 1965 season.[3] In 1966, he was recovered sufficiently to be the starting quarterback in nine of Michigan's ten games.[4] He also started four games at quarterback for the 1967 Wolverines.[5] In his playing career at Michigan, Vidmer passed for 2,400 yards and 11 touchdowns. His career best game came against Minnesota in 1966 when Vidmer threw 15 completions for 210 yards and three touchdowns. He also threw for 258 yards in a 1966 victory over Oregon State. Vidmer was also an outstanding student at Michigan and was selected as an Academic All-American in 1966.[2] He received three degrees from Michigan, a bachelor's degree in economics, a master's degree in international relations (1972), and a Ph.D. in philosophy (1978).[1] He later taught at the University of Virginia and served as an advisor to U.S. Congressman Don Bailey, a former Michigan football teammate.[2] He also served as a county commissioner in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. He was court-appointed to the county commissioner position in 1985 and elected to the position in November 1987. He became the chairman of the county commissioners.[1] Vidmer was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis in 1983 and was forced to retire in 1999.[2]

Q: Increment cell value by 1 each time condition is met I'm trying to check the value of multiple cells containing integers within a single formula, each time the condition is true, increment the cell value by 1 e.g. IF C11 is greater than 300 THEN add 1 to the cell value and IF D11 is greater than 500 THEN add another 1 to the value so I end up with a final value of 2.
I've tried using IFS and an ARRAYFORMULA but neither seem to work e.g. =IFS(F11>300,+1,E11>500,+1)

A: If you consider that each met condition is 1, you can use the equivalence of TRUE and FALSE with 1 and 0:
=(E11>300)+(F11>500)

Even with arrayformula:
=ArrayFormula((E11:E>300)+(F11:F>500))


In addition to your music career, you're also an accomplished businessman at Vince Neil Ink and restaurateur of Feelgood's Bar And Grill. Did those interests develop from being involved in the entertainment industry?
Those shouldn't be too hard to find.
No, those are, like, the easiest ones to find!
I guess I'm surprised that Vince Ink is the only tattoo parlor on the Vegas Strip. I figured there would be one at every other address. Talk about location, location, location!
Yeah, we're the only one. Right across from Caesar's Palace, right next door to The Flamingo. I have 30-something thousand people a day walking by my shop. When you're getting tattooed people can watch you while they're walking down the street. It's really cool.
You have artists who work there, but do you ever pick up a gun?
Oh no, no I don't. I mean, between the two shops I've got about 40 artists that work for me.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but you also have, or had, a winery?
I also wanted to ask about the charity work you do in your daughter's memory.
On Nov. 8 [we had] our fifth annual poker tournament. It's been at the Hard Rock for the last four years and I've changed it over to The Rio Casino because, as you know, The Rio has been hosting the World Series Of Poker. So what we've done is to put the Skylar Neil Foundation tournament in conjunction with the World Series Of Poker tournament and ESPN. The final table is coming up so a lot of the pros play in my tournament. We have a big prize and the winner, just like any other poker tournament, gets a $10,000 bracelet. It's a big-time tournament and raises a lot of money for the Skylar Neil Foundation. And we have our golf tournament set for the 14th year. That's been sold out every single year for 13 years and this one shouldn't be any different. It's just nice to, at the end of the year, to be able to sit down and write a check to different organizations that we feel deserve money.
Charitable work speaks volumes and is so, so important. What you do with the Skylar Neil Foundation is really commendable. Of course it came out of a tragedy, though. Do you think being a member of such an iconic, respected band has helped you through some tough times?
Yeah, that's one great thing about music. You can express yourself in things like that where a lot of people who don't find different outlets like that, whether it be painting or writing or things like that, anything that goes wrong in your life can come out in ways that are not good. We're lucky, being musicians, to be able to put our feelings in song and let other people experience it along with us. We're very, very fortunate.
Catch the Vince Neil Band at the Wellmont Theatre in Montclair, NJ, on Nov. 27. vinceneil.net for more.
Yes, the show in Montclair on Friday has been canceled. He is still performing tonight in Long Island for those willing to brave the L.I.E. Northern State the day before Thanksgiving.

Home Viral Facebook Netizens Sympathise with Woman Molested In Train And At MRT Station
Netizens Sympathise with Woman Molested In Train And At MRT Station
The Molest Incident Happened At Serangoon MRT
Netizens on Facebook have shared words of sympathy and consolation with a woman who was allegedly molested on the train and subsequently at Serangoon MRT.
The victim, Karmen Siew, published a lengthy Facebook post on Thursday (13 Sep), detailing her traumatic experience. The post has since gone viral, receiving more than 700 shares and 200 comments.
You can read the post in full here. We summarise it after the jump.
Horror on the MRT
Ms Siew's misadventure started on the North-East Line. While on a train bound for HarbourFront, a commuter sitting beside her allegedly brushed his hands against her thigh.
She assumed it was accidental and tried distancing herself from the man. But he continued his advances.
Harassment continued at the MRT station
She then got off the train at Serangoon MRT but the man followed behind.
Things got worse on the escalator — the man groped Ms Siew's butt. To make things worse, onlookers merely watched and did nothing for the helpless Ms Siew.
In a later update, she clarified that the man,
ran his finger between (her) buttcheeks, along the line of (her) private parts.
She made a dash for the control station and shouted for the station master to prevent the molester from getting away by blocking the gantry.
But the station master did nothing–he reportedly didn't even try to chase the alleged culprit.
The station master claimed that since he was the only one on duty at that point in time, deserting his post would be breaking his company's protocol. Instead, he got on the phone and called the police.
But instead of calling the Serangoon Police Post which was merely 400m away, the station master contacted the MacPherson Police Post, which was more than 3km away.
By then, the molester had gotten away.
At that point, Ms Siew was pretty livid to say the least,
not merely at the a**hole who got away, but at the ineptitude of the people who are supposed to help, and the indifference of those who could.
Ms Siew later learnt that the CCTV footage which would help identify the perpetrator can only be watched at the police station. So off to the police station she went.
However, after spending close to 1.5 hours at the police post, she still didn't get the chance to review the footage.
But Ms Siew mentioned in her updates that she was glad the police were doing their job investigating the matter.
As of the time of this article, police investigations are still underway.
Sympathetic netizens
Netizens on Facebook were extremely sympathetic towards Ms Siew in their comments. Here are a few highlights.
Should we bend the rules during such situations? This netizen certainly thinks so.
This netizen struggled to comprehend why the station master didn't take a picture of the molester.
Another netizen expressed his concern over how MRT staff would handle terrorist-related incidents should they occur in the future.
This netizen shared her own experience with another pervert on the MRT.
Is it okay to not obey rules at all times?
Singaporeans' law abiding nature is undoubtedly one of the key factors contributing to our safe society.
Yet in situations like this, should Singaporeans instead look past the rules and simply help out a fellow human in need?
Regardless, our thoughts go out to Mr Siew for having to go through such an unfortunate incident. We hope the molester is brought to justice and made to pay for his crime soon.

The newest print to hit the world's stage is here. Meet the Limited Edition Venom print, part of TYR Sport's celebrated Avictor® collection.
Born out of a collaboration between the industry's top experts and the world's most elite swimmers, the TYR Women's Avictor® Venom Closed Back Swimsuit is TYR's fastest, most innovative technical swimsuit. Showcasing an unprecedented combination of advanced features, this FINA-approved technical suit maximizes performance and gives athletes the ultimate advantage over their rivals.
Hydrosphere Technology works in harmony with a swimmer's natural abilities in order to optimize body positioning in the water. Ground-breaking technology causes water to surround the fabric of the swimsuit, creating a visible hydrospheric effect. As a result of maximized positioning, drag is reduced and speed and efficiency are boosted.
Designed with proprietary Speed Dry Fabrication, the AVFC6A rapidly repels water and minimizes dry time, providing compression even when saturated for extended periods of time. Rigorously tested to ensure athletes experience a lightweight, snug fit at all times, the Avictor® Venom swimsuit performs throughout long meets and multiple swims, providing unmatched comfort and support.
Advanced technology allows water to surround fabric, rather than saturate it. Optimizes body position in the water, reducing drag and maximizing speed.
Proprietary coating repels water and keeps the suit dry and compressive, keeping swimmers lightweight and fast.
Advanced engineering allows fully bonded seams to conform and stretch with the swimmer's body, resulting in a precisely fitted, ultra compressive suit that won't restrict natural movement.

This book suggests that Americans (and perhaps others) might want to take a closer look at their migratory roots. Migration is not easy: It involves uprooting families, searching for new homes and jobs, and adjusting to a new way of life. This collection is the first English translation of Arabic accounts of travel and emigration to the US, from 1876 to the beginning of World War I, offering a fresh perspective on what America was like then for Arab visitors and immigrants. The collection focuses on travels and migration of people from Egypt and from Ottoman Syria (e.g., Syria, Lebanon and Palestine). Writers include Egypt's Idwar Ilyas (1876) and Prince Muhammad 'Ali Pasha (1912), Lebanon's Jibra'il Ilyas Ward (1898) and Palestine's Khalil al-Sakakini (1907). We learn about the successes and disappointments of Arab immigrants as they search for the "American dream" and encounter sometimes harsh reality. We also learn about these Arab encounters with, and impressions of, other ethnic groups in the American mix, including Chinese and African Americans, both of whom have suffered their own hard times in America. This collection is an eye-opener.
