Responsibilities and Achievements

This summary is not available. Please click here to view the post.

fghhjhjh

Don't be a jerk! Contrary to popular opinion, all of the employees at the IRS are people, too. They have wives, husbands, and kids, and they're employed at the IRS because they're working in their chosen profession. And make no mistakea plan to make all of this right -- they are trained professionals. Taking out your frustrations on an auditor will get you nowhere. Insulting the auditor verbally will not solve any pit's your turnroblems. And assaulting one physically is a federal offense. Remember, these people are just trying to do their jobs. Be courteous, even if the auditor is not courteous to you or seems Work will save youunreasonable. If you arrive at the audit with a large chip on your shoulder, you might make the auditor less willing to see things in your light. fill in the blanks
Provide only copies. Don't bring original documents to the audit. If you do bring originals, do not give them to the agent. Request that the agenttouches your heart make copies and give the originals back to you. Once you hand over your original documents, there's a very good chance that they will be misplaced or lost. Then you're the one holding the bag, since the IRS isn't responsible for documents lost in its possession.
Stay on point. The auditor will be able to obtain some valuable information in what seem to be simple and friendly discussions. Asking about an expensive new car that you might have purchased, or that vacation to the Greek Isles, might give the auditor reason to believe that you're not reporting all of your income and thus expand the scope of the audit. When you meet with the auditor, in essence, you're providing testimony. So answer as many questions as possible with a simple "yes" or "no" response. If you must expand or explain, keep it brief and very much to the point. Don't give the auditor a reason to expand the audit because of your tendency to ramble on.
Know your rights as a taxpayer. Remember that an audit is like a small trial. It is an adversarial exercise. So while you can disagree without being disagreeable, you must know your rights, the audit process, and the law behind the deductions you are claiming. Settling any difference at the audit level is generally best, but if you can't come to an agreement, you have rights that allow you to request a conference with the IRS Appeals Division.

Pakistani Taliban links seen as "entirely plausible"

The United States has asked Pakistan for help investigating a failed plot to bomb New York's Times Square, The Washington Post reported on Thursday, as investigators kept questioning a Pakistani-American charged in the case.Washington was preparing a detailed request for urgent and specific assistance in the investigation to be presented by the end of the week, the Post reported, quoting an Obama administration official.
So far, the United States had only asked to interview the parents of the suspect, the newspaper said, quoting a Pakistani official as saying the parents had not been located.
U.S. investigators see credible signs the Pakistani Taliban movement had links to the the suspect, Faisal Shahzad, in the attempted car bombing, U.S. officials said.
U.S. investigators were taking "a hard look" at the possible links between the suspect and Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan, or TTP, suggesting there was a growing body of intelligence pointing in that direction, a U.S. official said on Wednesday.
"TTP is entirely plausible but we're not ruling out other groups," the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity. [ID:nN05187448]
"It's important to develop a complete intelligence picture before reaching any final conclusion, but all the brush strokes aren't there yet," the official said.
In a sign of heightened security in America's most populous city since the failed bomb attempt on Saturday, authorities shut down New York's busy Triborough Bridge on Wednesday night after a rental truck was found abandoned and smelling of gas.
No bomb was found in the truck and police said the bridge would reopen shortly. [ID:nN05206551]
Shahzad, who U.S. prosecutors say admitted driving a car bomb into Times Square waived his right to an initial court appearance on Wednesday to keep talking to investigators, sources said.
Shahzad, 30, who was born in Pakistan and became a U.S. citizen last year, has been charged with attempting to use a weapon of mass destruction and trying to kill and maim people within the United States as well as other counts.
The Taliban in Pakistan has claimed responsibility for the plot.
CIA-operated drones have targeted Taliban figures in Pakistan's tribal areas and the group has vowed to avenge missile strikes that have killed some of its leaders. If confirmed that the group sponsored the failed bombing in New York, it would be their first attack on U.S. soil.
U.S. prosecutors said Shahzad, the son of a retired Pakistani vice air marshal, had admitted to receiving bomb-making training in a Taliban and al Qaeda stronghold in Pakistan. A law enforcement source said investigators believed the Pakistani Taliban financed that training. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
TAKE A LOOK on Times Square bomb plot [ID:nBOMB] ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^>
Street vendors alerted police to a smoking vehicle parked awkwardly in Times Square on Saturday evening with its engine running and hazard lights flashing. Thousands of people were evacuated and a police bomb squad defused the crude device, which included firecrackers and propane gas tanks.
'I HAVE BEEN EXPECTING YOU'
Shahzad was arrested on Monday night after he was removed from Emirates plane at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport that was about to depart for Dubai. He had been on his way back to Pakistan.
"I was expecting you. Are you NYPD or FBI?" local media reported Shahzad as saying to Customs and Border Protection agents when they approached him on the plane.
Shahzad waived his right to an initial court appearance within 48 hours of his arrest and other U.S. constitutional rights, a U.S. official and sources said. He faces life in prison if convicted of the charges against him, unless he negotiates a lesser sentence in exchange for cooperation.
"(Shahzad) was giving them intricate details as to what he did overseas," said a law enforcement source familiar with the investigation. "There was a determination that there wasn't anyone else in the (New York) area to target."
Shahzad bought a ticket with cash and boarded the plane even though he had been placed on a U.S. "no-fly" list earlier that day. On Wednesday, the Obama administration ordered airlines to step up their efforts to prevent people on the list from boarding flights. [ID:nN05212607]
Several of Shahzad's relatives were arrested in Pakistan after he was taken from the plane, Pakistani officials said.
Shahzad, a former budget analyst who worked for a marketing firm in Connecticut, came from a relatively privileged background that offered no hints of radicalism.[ID:nSGE6440FN]
Residents of his home village of Mohib Banda were in disbelief. "I never observed any inclination for militancy," a close family friend told Reuters.

WellPoint to Beef Up Rate Reviews

WellPoint Inc. Chief Executive Angela Braly is moving to respond to complaints about her company's health-insurance premium increases by adding new layers of oversight to pricing practices.
In a memo sent Wednesday to its 40,000 employees and reviewed by The Wall Street Journal, Ms. Braly said the Indianapolis health insurer will implement third-party reviews of its 2010 rate filings and investigate why its actuaries did not find miscalculations uncovered last week by the California Department of Insurance.
"We have to be sure that the processes we use and the work we produce are reliable and accurate, so they do not in any way distract from the real challenges facing us—the unrelenting increase in the cost of health care in America," Ms. Braly wrote.
The move comes a day after Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius asked governors and regulators in 50 states to investigate whether WellPoint's rate filings included similar errors to those found in California. Last week, the WellPoint unit in California withdrew its request to increase rates for individual plans by up to 39% after actuaries hired by the state found several mistakes, such as double counting the price effect of policyholders as they age.
Problems for WellPoint continued to mount on Wednesday. California Insurance Commissioner Steve Poizner, a Republican candidate for governor, said he is investigating the validity of claims data used by WellPoint's Anthem Blue Cross unit. The probe includes a review of claims, premiums databases and information-system processes and controls, the department said.
"We're not convinced their data-collection process is right and their data is in the right spot," said Mr. Poizner.
A WellPoint spokeswoman said the company is looking into Mr. Poizner's claims and will continue to cooperate with the state department. The spokeswoman said the memo was intended to explain to employees the company's plan of action.
In her memo, Ms. Braly pledged to work more closely with the California Insurance Department and its outside actuary, Axene Health Partners LLC. She says she will ask Mr. Poizner to allow Axene to help Anthem update its filing.
Ms. Braly also said that the company will change its internal peer review process to include more actuaries in addition to just those who work in the individual business. She is instructing presidents of her state plans to reach out to state regulators to answer questions they may have about the company's filings.
At the California Department of Insurance, a spokesman hadn't seen the memo, but said that the regulator encourages companies to take necessary steps to ensure accuracy of rate filings and looks forward to a formal request from Anthem about using Axene's services. "Allowing it may eliminate their independence and create potential conflicts of interest," the spokesman said in a statement.
Officials at Axene didn't immediately return a request for comment.
An HHS spokeswoman declined to comment on the memo, saying she had not seen it. "We hope WellPoint is finally taking this matter seriously," said the spokeswoman. "We'll be watching their actions closely."sentiment

Methods for Mobile Terminal Localization


This paper firstly introduces the classic ESPRIT TDOA/AOA joint parameters estimation method,and then makes analysis in its capability with context of the same delay.However,this algorithm does not fully utilize the information provided by channel response matrix,so the paper puts forward the joint estimation method based on the eigenvalues and eigenvectors.This algorithm estimates the delay and angle for only one eigenvalues decomposition.Thus it takes full advantage of the matrix information and makes the accuracy better.Aiming at the gaussian noise in wireless channel and according to the insensitivity of high-order cumulant to gaussian noise,this paper proposes multipath joint parameters estimation method based on high-order cumulant.It first estimates the delay and attenuation,furthermore,revises the attenuation while estimating the angle.Therefore the method can improve the accuracy obviously.Finally,combining high-order cumulant with the ESPRIT method,the paper brings up separation algorithm.Adopting the high-order cumulant in the estimation of delay and angle,it estimates the angle with ESPRIT method and verifies its effectiveness by the simulation.

Be Brave

I saw you last night,
Frozen, searching an amputated
Winter wonderland.
Why survive, if survival is all it is?

Your lone wandering
Is a stubborn cycle of breathing,
Snuffling for other weaker unfortunates,
Beating the snow, without pause,
With a frosted, panting heart.

All the pity in the world does you no good,
For in the morning light,
When you are caught by the sun’s open gaze,
You will not show your face.
You’ll go to your well-worn places,
Below the tree line,
As cautiously as centuries.

You know that if you scavenge too much
For love or warmth,
The kindness in another’s touch may kill you.
So you’ll stay alert,
Won’t you, my friend.

Forgive me, but
Perhaps you should look for love
Among the dying leaves
On those useless branches.
You could steal the warmth of
Their own last breath.

Or maybe investigate thoroughly,
The possibilities of winter’s thud.
That abandoned bone may contain
A scrap of marrow.
That last lick of love
Could be the salt to sustain you.

I know outside the snow lies content,
A simple gossamer stillness.
Even inside, the house sits safely
Cradling its good cheer.
Yet for you the air pricks like needles,
Welting your eyes
And hammering your heart.

To me, yours is a futile existence,
A switchback of ignorance and pain.
Your life may be a sounding of your spirit,
Ancient perhaps,
But to what end?

Your only chance is
To head above the tree line,
And fall into the sun.

Tumble into first light,
You should be the one,
Who jumps into spaces
Where others fear to be.

And there hunt openly
And use no hunter’s guile.
For love is not for scavengers
Fleeing in the night.
It is for those with bloody hearts
And blinded eyes,
Caught out by the light.

Luck hat

Dear Arizona,

My brother is so lucky. Good stuff is always happening to him. Do you believe in luck? And if so, how can I get more of it?

—Looking for luck in Louisiana

Dear Looking,

I was eating breakfast with one hand, petting my cat, Cow, with the other, and reading the back of the cereal box, when—"YOUCH!" I screamed. "Why'd you pinch me?"

"You're not wearing green," said my little brother, Tex. "Everyone knows you get pinched if you don't wear green on Saint Patrick's Day!"

"It's true," said my little sister, Indi.

I was mostly mad about getting pinched, but also a tiny bit glad about being reminded that it was Saint Patrick's Day.

I panicked. "What am I going to do? I don't have time to change. I'll get pinched all day long!"

"Well," Tex said, taking the old green baseball cap off his head, "you could borrow my lucky hat."

"But it's your favorite!" I said.

"I know," said Tex. "Just promise to give it back after school."

"No problem," I said, glancing in the mirror on my way out the door. "I look like a goofball in this thing!"

"A lucky goofball!" said Tex.

"Humm." I grabbed my backpack. "Thanks, I think."

Now, before I go on, you should know that I'm not an overly superstitious person. I don't believe that thirteen is an unlucky number or that breaking a mirror brings seven years of bad luck.

I definitely don't freak out if a black cat crosses my path. And when it comes to things like lucky four-leaf clovers and lucky pennies, I just never believed in them.

Anyway, I was racing to catch the school bus, and I saw a dollar on the sidewalk! I looked around to see if anyone was looking for it, but people just kept stepping on the poor thing, so I decided to rescue it. I'd found pennies and nickels before, but never a dollar!

Then, I didn't miss the bus, because the bus was even later than me——which never happens!

My luck didn't stop there. Carlos and Jackson were sitting behind me, quizzing each other on spelling words. I turned around and said, "You guys know that test isn't till tomorrow, right?"

"It got switched to this morning," said Jackson. "Remember? There's some assembly tomorrow."

"That's right-I totally forgot!" I said. "I'm so lucky that I sat in front of you. If I hadn't , I wouldn't have found out till it was too late!"

I got out my spelling words, studied all the way to school. And ended up acing the test!

The minute I got home, I gave Tex a gigantic hug.

"This is the luckiest hat in the world," I said. "I'm never taking it off!"

"But you promised to give it back!" said Tex.

"I know, but…" I pretended to try to pull the hat off my head. "I think it's stuck."

"It is not!" said Tex.

"Please-oh-please let me borrow your lucky hat for one more day!" I begged. "Tomorrow I'm auditioning for the school play, and I need every bit of help I can get."

"OK," said Tex. "One more day. But you'd better be really nice to me."

"I will," I agreed. "In fact-here you can have my lucky dollar!"

Tex let out a whoop, then started dancing around and waving his gift in the air.

The next day turned out to be super lucky. My audition couldn't have gone better.

"Wow, Arizona!" said my friend Mareya. "I can't believe how amazingly you just did! You are so getting a major part in this play!"

"Thanks! You did really great, too!" I said. "But honestly, the only reason I did OK is because I had my lucky hat."

"What lucky hat?" asked Mareya.

"This one," I said, reaching into my backpack, where I thought I'd put Tex's hat since I couldn't wear it for the audition. But it wasn't there! "Oh no!" I cried. "It's gone! What am I going to tell Tex?"

Mareya helped me look for it. Luckily, we found Tex's hat in my locker. Also luckily, I discovered that I could be lucky with or without a goofy-looking cap in my possession.

"So it wasn't the hat," said Mareya. "This is just a wild guess, but maybe it was all those hours you spent practicing over the past month."

"Hmm," I said. "It's possible."

So, dear Looking, I guess you could say that luck is a combination of being prepared, believing in yourself, … and maybe just a tiny bit of magic! In other words, luck may come your way, but you have to be ready for it when it does!

Ciao for now

Arizona

Thinking of You

When will the moon be clear and bright?
With a cup of wine in my hand, I ask the blue sky.
I don't know what season it would be in the heavens on this night.
I'd like to ride the wind to fly home.
Yet I fear the crystal and jade mansions are much too high and cold for me.
Dancing with my moon-lit shadow
It does not seem like the human world
The moon rounds the red mansion Stoops to silk-pad doors
Shines upon the sleepless Bearing no grudge
Why does the moon tend to be full when people are apart?
People may have sorrow or joy, be near or far apart
The moon may be dim or bright, wax or wane
This has been going on since the beginning of time
May we all be blessed with longevity Though far apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together.
