Virginia and taxes ... AGAIN.

Today, I received a messege from my dad in Maryland that a guy named Bill called from Virginia. I returned the call and find out it's someone from VA trying to collect the tax they claim I owe.

I explained, again, that I do not intend to pay it. So, I am told there is no discussing it. Either pay or they will place a lien on me.

Well, I'm not done yet.

They have the records, they received all tax deductions from any pay I earned and was shown to be more than any tax debt they were imposing. They admitted I was owed a refund. BUT ... NOOOOOOOOO. The state wants more money from you!

If they can see your records with the IRS and see what was filed then why can't they correct their claim? The W-4 filed with the federal also shows state deductions. They see how much was paid to the state and fully is able to see I was owed a refund. Yet, they push to rape me for more money. I paid my debt and they got to keep the extra I was never refunded. Now this.

I wonder how many tax dollars will be wasted on chasing this bogus debt? It's more like they will do about anything so they can say they were right and pay than to admit they were wrong and drop it.

If you want to question any details about this from the state please contact Bill above at 703-497-5016.

Tell him Mr. Sword sent you.

P.S. Think for a moment and ask yourself "Where does the state come up with these supposed tax figures IF they know nothing about your filing?"

In A Bind? Need To Raise Cash Quick?

UPDATE

Got A Minute.
Make $1000 - $2000 IN 24 Hours Or Less!
 
Hello friend,

When Willie Crawford speaks the net listens
When Willie Speaks I listen...carefully.
You are not going to believe your eyeballs
when you see what Willie is giving you
for less than a cup of cappuccino. Yikes!
You have to be nutsy not to read this.
I did and I have a broad grin on my face:)
 
You will too...
It's superb information and you
cannot afford to pass this up.
Do you know what it costs???
Keep reading. You are not going to
believe this.
Make $1000 - $2000 IN 24 Hours Or Less!
 
Two to three times per week, someone from online comes to me with a
financial emergency.

They come to me figuring that an 11-year veteran of internet marketing
 can certainly get them out of their bind. Here's what I tell them:
===>>>  Make $1000 - $2000 IN 24 Hours Or Less!
 
Their emergencies include such things as:
- An overdue house or rent payment
- A car about to be repossessed
- Late utility bills
- Overdue credit card bills (usually several months!)
- Sudden medical emergencies
- Catastrophic computer failure
- Child in jail that needs bailing out

... and there are several other common ones.
I give them a very simple, easy to implement plan, that if they are
 willing to work, WILL bring in as much as several thousand dollars
 within the next 24 hours. I've had people do it over and over again. I have
 people who have now used my tactics, and now they are submitting case
 studies to me :-)

You can get the very simple, easy to follow plan that I've laid out for
 only $5. On top of that, after you purchase the plan, you can
 immediately turn around and sell copies for $5 with 100% of the money
 deposited directly into your Paypal account. Many people have generated a quick
 $300 to $500 just by posting a mention of this report on their blog. Those
 who've sent mailing to their lists usually do MUCH better, but you
 don't need a list to use my plan.

If you are in a financial bind today, or frequently find yourself in
 one, or just want to know how to generate some quick funds, then you
 absolutely must get this proven report! Get it now at:
Make $1000 - $2000 IN 24 Hours Or Less!

Internet Radio Alive and Well - and here to stay

Internet Radio Alive and Well - and here to stay


The Open Mic Show

1:30pm est. on Wednesday


Roger Mayer is your host.

Roger's Home Page

The guest today is is Mark Avery.

Roger and Mark had the highest ratings in a rock station for the entire country for 2 ratings periods in Santa Barbara, Ca. Mark, as a rapper, took the name "Plain White Rapper".

People in regular radio would like to put restrictions on Internet Radio as they feel it is cutting into their space.
In radio you need to use your mind to create visuals. Radio today is programmed for ratings and not listeners. You need to aim at the lowest common denominator to get ratings in order to show a profit. Years ago a radio station was worth 9-12 times their cash flow. The escalation of the price of radio stations has become very strong currently.

When internet radio becomes widely available in automobiles, the terrestrial stations will be in trouble for a listening base. Internet Radio should not be regulated as that will make it difficult for them to compete with regular radio.
Mark has started a site called UFC-unemployed fishing club. They have a video fishing show. They are creating an internet live fishing show called "Time to Fish".

We need a real outcry from the internet radio personnel as well as the listeners to prevent regulation of the internet radio freedoms. Internet broadcasters need to encourage the listeners to raise an outcry to prevent regulations so we can keep our freedom of speech on the internet. Some terrestrial radio stations are integrating their broadcasts with internet sites and communications. With internet radio the listening audience can be proven as opposed to arbitron type estimated ratings.

Internet Radio does not need a brick and mortar building to be real and very powerful. It is up to us to keep it safe from money hungry advertisers, smut throwers and scammers. Please go listen to this show and then let your voice be heard. Go to http://www.realcoachingradio.com/node/18 and then click on and listen to the May21 Show.

Did you get a Tax Stimulus Check? Reduce your Educational costs ...

You may want to look at how to apply that tax stimulus check to and educational costs you may have. If you apply it to existing debt you will reduce next year's tax liability as you take the educational tax credit. If you are starting out for fall semester this can be applied directly to school cost and give you a nice tax break and less debt needed from FASFA applied student loans.

Consider using the student loans ONLY for classes and the tax stimulus for books. Look to find ways to decrease your overall debt. Less debt, less interest and you get to write off the education.

Frederick brass band wins national award — again

Photo by Doug Koontz


Soloist Frank Gorecki, left, and director John Slezak represent the Spires Brass Band, which recently won its fourth NorthAmerican Brass Band Association championship.






IF YOU GO

The Spires Brass Band will present a concert at 8 p.m. May 24 at the Jack B. Kussmaul Theater at Frederick Community College. For details, visit

  • www.spiresbrassband.org



  • The Spires Brass Band took first place in the North American Brass Band Association's annual championship at the end of March — for the fourth time.

    The first three trophies and banners were won in odd-numbered years — 2001, 2003, and 2005.

    "We broke the string," the band's founder and director, John Slezak, said of the latest win.

    Slezak is proud of his adult band of 32 members. It includes some people he taught during 22 years at Frederick High School. One of those students, Randy Rumpf, is now director of the Tuscarora High School band.

    Slezak formed the band, named for the many spires in Frederick, in October 1993, the year before he retired from teaching at Frederick High School.

    "They're good players," he said.

    One of the band members, Frank Gorecki, brought home a first place trophy from the NABBA championship for his "High Brass Slow Melody" solo performance.

    The entire band of 28 brass and four percussion instruments won its award in the Challenge Section of the championship, held at Indiana University.

    A trumpet player since he learned the instrument as a boy, Slezak has a wide range of tastes. He also enjoys special arrangements that are done for the band.

    "There's good country, jazz, classical, big band and patriotic music," he said. "Several of our members are arrangers and two compose and arrange. It gives us something fresh."

    Spires members range from the mid-30s into their 40s, and that's for a reason, Slezak said.

    "We refrain from marches, but the adults have a quicker grasp and they have a sense of humor," he said. "The kids are more introspective."

    Slezak holds his musicians to tough standards.

    "The biggest challenge with adults is pushing the level higher, pushing the envelope and getting them to play more difficult music," he said. "At the high school level, the challenge is pushing the level of performance of a new crew every four years."

    He rehearses with the band every week.

    "It's challenging," he said. "At the same time, it's a lot of fun."

    Some Spires members come from Gettysburg, Pa., West Virginia, Northern Virginia and Baltimore. The band has five women. The band has also been fortunate in finding singers, including a couple of opera singers who performed "Duet for Two Cats" by Rossini.

    Neither Slezak nor any of the band members are paid.

    "It is a labor of love," he said.

    Jokes

    OOoopps

    I was trying to mow the lawn before my husband got home from work, but our electric lawn mower refused to cooperate. It would run fine for a few seconds, then cut off, run again, cut off. Finally, I gave up and waited for my husband. He had a good laugh when he diagnosed the problem. Instead of plugging in the mower using a three-prong adapter, I'd hooked up the cord through the Christmas-tree light blinker control.

    **********************************

    When I stopped the bus to pick up Chris for preschool, I noticed an older woman hugging him as he left the house. "Is that your grandmother?" I asked.
    "Yes," Chris said. "She's come to visit us for Christmas."
    "How nice," I said. "Where does she live?"
    "At the airport," Chris replied. "Whenever we want her we just go out there and get her."

    **********************************

    My wife asked me to help wrap Christmas presents this year, but I was watching football and declined to help. She then informed me that if I didn't help, I'd be in big, big trouble, so I helped.
    However, she didn't tell me to put tags on them, so I think I may be in trouble anyway.

    In Modesto, California, Steven Richard King was arrested for trying to hold up a Bank of America branch without a weapon. King used a thumb and a finger to simulate a gun, but unfortunately, he failed to keep his hand in his pocket.

    THE 22nd ART EXHIBITION

    I am thrilled and honored to be the writer of this edition of THE ART CORNER. These ladies work so hard always. These 3 ladies, ROSE ENDERUD, JENNY SJ, VENERINA CONTI, really out do themselves presenting this forum to us every 3 weeks.

    I have the extreme privilege and honor to bring to the art of Susanna Jade Angola. Susanna has been a member of Adlandpro since May 2007, and she is a very nice person. I just know you are going to love her artwork. Please invite Susanna to be your friend is she is not already.

    As a child she was always drawing, coloring and painting. When she married a young Italian artist he taught her very well. She has fond memories of that time saying, "We lived in Italy and painted our way through walls, furniture, cars, floors, rocks and any other surface we could find”.

    Susanna has spent the last 25 years in California and New Mexico and she continues to explore various surfaces to color. I love big cats so the tiger picture was a personal favorite of mine. She included this note in her bio;

    Please visit www.Susanetta.com/collection.html for a special offer plus a free high-resolution download of the Tiger. Print it, frame it, keep it, or give it away.”


    I hope you will enjoy this Art Exhibition as much as I did.

    Spires Brass Band Presented their concert 'CELTIC MOODS'

    Spires Brass Band Presented their concert 'CELTIC MOODS' on March 15th, 2008 at the Kussmaul Theatre of Frederick Community College. The night was filled with uplifting music. They opened the show with The Star Spangled Banner arranged by John Phillip Sousa with the entire audience standing in showing honor.

    The next tune Variations On Laudate Dominum by Gregson was performed well with mood and feeling. This piece showed the audience that the members of Spires are well trained and dedicated to their craft. This was a good run through for them since this tune will be performed in their upcoming NABBA contest.

    William Kermit Britt was the Euphonium Soloist in the song Brillante arranged by Graham. Mr. Britt demonstrated his mastery and full range of the instrument as he covered the various leaps of notes throughout his solo. He was well complimented by the band's performance, too.

    Spirit Of Adventure by brass band composer Norbury was a very energetic piece that really tested the Spire's Band abilities. A song that will also be used in the upcoming NABBA contest gives this band a real show of it's talents. The layers of melodies and dynamics really have the listeners glued to their seats. And Spires hypnotized, again, it's audience.

    To close the first half of the performance the Spire Percussion section set the mood with it's Celtic rhythms of Tenors and Bahdrams for the Brass to give us the song Celtic Moods arranged by Vander Velde. It was a song that delivered the feeling of bright and rainy days, days typical for any Celtic. Again, Spires painted the picture well with it's full pellet of colors.

    During intermission one could hear the various comments from the audience members at how The Spires have reminded them of their trips to Ireland to seeing River Dance when it was on tour. One couple was talking about an Irish pub they remembered in Chicago and how this show brought back that memory. Others talking about Penny Whistles to drinking green beer for St Patrick's Day to 'what do men wear under those Kilt's?' That's a sign to get seated for the second half.

    Well, the next song, Entry Of The Celts (arr. Moren), made you see the rolling hills as the percussion section, again, craftly layered a rhythm coming from both sides of the stage. The energy of this tune was remarkable. By the end of the tune you thought all the band members were Irish by the way they played.

    This next tune, The Irish Washerwoman arranged by Langford, showed the audience two things: there is more to Celtic music than drums & bagpipes and Spires has one hell of a Trombone section!!! Jay Gibble, Euan Edmonds, Dennis Mercer and Bernard Robier were the front voices of this song. Like a Barbershop Quartet these four harmonized and shined as bright as ever. Excellent job!!!

    Gaelforce, another arrangement by Peter Graham, makes the Spires' stage and you can hear why. It has been taken up by many bands since its appearance, and is possibly one of the most recorded items of more popular repertoire at present. So, Spires would naturally add this piece to their performance and do it justice. Again, all sections show their strength of talents and play this piece having fun.

    Irish Tune From County Derry (arr. Wright) was the closing tune for the show. In a 'Danny Boy' style the brass-only tune gave you a saddened departing from such a fine performance.

    As an encore the Spires performed "Garry Owen" March arranged by James Fulton that ended the show in a more uplifting spirit.

    The Spires Brass Band, under the direction of John Slezak, has delivered many performances to the citizens of Frederick, MD and other cities and states. There upcoming NABBA contest is in Louisville, KY at the end on March. They will be performing again in Frederick, MD on May 24th in the Kussmaul Theatre at Frederick Community College doing their concert titled Americana. Be sure to see this show.

    BCN NEWS FINDS NOT SO FUNNY STORY HARD TO BELIEVE

    BCN NEWS FINDS NOT SO FUNNY STORY HARD TO BELIEVE


    BALTIMORE, Md. - Just when you thought you've heard it all, there comes the story of the on line marketer who joins a new business community, reads the TOS and signs on. After several months of on line success, she begins to notice that not everyone is following the TOS as she is. They Spam her account like crazy, they have stock photos of every image under the sun as " their own personal photo " and continually enter her account without asking and leave ads not related to her business model. This kind sweet lady contacts the site owner, who tells her they will " look into it."

    Days turn into weeks and nothing changes.

    She now notices that those who have no photo listed in their accounts have this weird image being placed by the site owner in lieu of their posting an actual photo. She now begins to get even more Spam. Now she's really upset so she once again contacts the site owner.

    " How can I find out who these people are and how to personally contact them, " she asks the site owner. " Well, you can always get one of those tracking devices and IP address locator's. That might help," they suggest.

    So, off she goes to do just that.

    Two weeks later she's looking at her tracking reports and IP locater and makes an unsettling discovery, so she sits down and writes the following letter to the site owner:

    Dear Sir:

    I did as you requested and today, I found out who all those people were that do not have a photo listed in their account and those who have been spaming me with all those horrid email. Its been you all along. Not funny dude, NOT FUNNY AT ALL !
