Podcasts about Reduction

Terrell Thornhill was raised in southern Mississippi in a land he says was “devoid of all culture.” Nevertheless, he is self-taught in his artistic disciplines and doesn't remember a time when he did not want to be an artist. He has lived in middle Tennessee since 1993 and currently lives in the Arts District, downtown Nashville with his Australian Shepard, Shiloh.Reduction Method Screen Printing, or “old-school,” means using methods from the early 1900s, before photographic stencils were invented, when every part of the process was done by hand. Many of these earlier processes have been sadly forgotten and lost to time. It's the same methods once used to mass-produce colorful show cards, large travel posters and world war propaganda campaigns. Determined to revive a lost art and learn what it had to teach me has led to the discovery of a plethora of wonderful creative options that simply do not exist using modern methods. Printmaking, especially screen-printing as an art form appeals to me because it is very much a combination of engineering and art. The process requires machinery, calibration, precise measurements, chemistry and ingenuity while leaving room at each stage for trial-and-error and experimentation.Reduction Method Screen Printing definitely leads to more “happy accidents.” Effects, only revealed when I take a left-turn somewhere in the process. I try to reproduce these effects in subsequent art pieces. Each piece, building on the techniques and lessons learned from the piece before. Screen printing via the lost art route, teaches me patience, perseverance and more often than I'd like to admit, humility.When I'm struck by an idea for an art piece; it's like waking up from a dream that you just can't shake. Often it's a thought or a simple phrase overheard in casual conversation; a flashing moment captured by a random glimpse out the passenger window – it stays with me until I put it down in a way that is concrete.Most often, what inspires me isn't exactly what I heard or saw, but more of what I think it might have been. The goal is to translate this concept into a work that is meaningful, beautiful and leaves the viewer with more questions than answers. That's what good art does; it starts a conversation without words and asks, “So, what do you think?”TERRELLTHORNHILL.COMHost - Trey Mitchelltreymitchellphotography IGfeeding_the_senses_unsensored on IGtrey mitchell: facebook.com/profile.php?id=100074368084848Sponsorship Information or submitting for interviews -  ftsunashville@gmail.comTheme Song - Damien HorneTake It From Me @damienhorne

Welcome to another episode of the Tax Tuesday show. Host Toby Mathis, Esq., joins our regular guest Eliot Thomas, Esq., Manager of Tax Advisors at Anderson Business Advisors, to help answer your questions. We send a big thank you to all our people online answering your questions today - Troy, Tanya, Sergey, Ross, Kurt, Kenny, Jared, Dutch, Dana, Patty, and Matthew are all on. On today's episode, Eliot and Toby answer listener questions including a very detailed question on inheriting rental properties, a question on crypto-currency and taxes, one on hiring and paying your children, and we answer the title question on structuring small businesses using an S-Corp. If you have a tax-related question for us, submit it to taxtuesday@andersonadvisors. Highlights/Topics: "What is an installment sale on real estate? How do you utilize it within the tax code?" - An installment sale simply means that you're getting payment over more than one year. It could be for two years, it could be for 20. "What happens to accumulated depreciation on rental property when the owner passes away? Does the person inheriting the property need to account for depreciation recapture from the deceased owner when you later decide to sell that property? If the person inheriting the property gets a step-up in basis, does that new basis now become the basis to calculate depreciation on if you keep the property? Can the person inheriting the rental property also have a new cost segregation done? And would that be affected by any cost segregation done previously? Any other tax considerations to be aware of when inheriting rental property?" — It goes away.  Don't gift it to your kids before you die! Your new value “step up in basis” is what you calculate from.  New cost-seg, yes, nothing relates to the old cost seg. "I received a 1099 INT from a bankrupt crypto company I invested with called Celsius." The money on the 1099 never touched my bank account as it is currently locked in a crypto wallet on their website for the last eight months. It was interest from USDC coins I staked, but I left it all in the wallet to reinvest. Am I supposed to pay taxes on this money that I never received, or can I leave it be and ignore it until the bankruptcy is resolved?" – you need to report it and you need to pay tax on it. "How does the tax law treat the hiring of children by an LLC? At what age can they be hired? Which circulars discuss this?" - when they're under 18, no Social Security, no Medicare taxes on those, but they must be paid by an LLC that's owned by mom and dad if it's a disregarded LLC or a partnership, and they have to be paid as W-2 employees. "I'm using the home office and depreciating part of the house. How will it look on the taxes that the year I sell it?" – I like using the administrative office in the home and having an S-corp, a C-corp, or an LLC taxed as an S-corp or a C-corp, reimbursing me for the value of my space because then I don't have depreciation recapture. "Are there any tax deductions for real estate held in a self-directed IRA?” When you see SDIRA, that just stands for self-directed IRA. - you're going to lose out on those big things like depreciation, et cetera, so no tax benefit. “I was hit hard with UBIT inside my Roth, where I owed $200,000 on a $400,000 gain. The company is no longer in business, trying to scratch back any part of the UBIT. Is it possible that it happened?”-- It was leveraged. Valerie, this is unrelated debt financed income. Yes, there is something you can do. "Can you explain S-corp taxes with shared distribution? When it's time to file taxes, do we pay taxes on all shared distributions?" Do you have to pay taxes on everything you receive or just the profits, et cetera? - An S-corp has two primary ways of getting paid as an owner, shareholder. One would be W-2 wages and the other is all the other income. "I started in LLC, C-corp with Anderson advisors on October 22 for real estate. I have paid $20,000-plus in networks, education, probably getting training. I did not do any deals and 2022 for my new real estate business. Can I still write all that off for the business? I have used my personal credit card to make purchases for the new REI business, real estate business. Since I do not have a business credit card, did I break the corporate veil?" – Yes, you can deduct those expenses. They are going to go on your C-corporation. If they were incurred prior to the date of incorporation, there'll be what we call startup costs. What org structure for small business is audited the least and provides the lowest tax liability?" – That's going to be your S-corporation, typically. It's going to give you a lot of deductions and reimbursements that you can take advantage of. "How do I best utilize my C-corp status for tax savings and investing in real estate? We have my 1099 paycheck going to our C-corp bank account and then pay out about half of it to our personal bank account as a paycheck. How do I utilize the other half that's sitting in the C-corp accounts, such as to buy new short-term rental or long-term rental investment property?" - the C-corporation, before you do the loan, you can take a lot of reimbursements—accountable plan reimbursements, corporate meetings for 280A, medical reimbursements. That all gets some money out to you tax-free deduction to your C-corporation. Get these first, then take a loan.

Show Notes Will Bachman and Nicholas Eisenberger discuss his career path since graduating from Harvard. Nicholas explains that he was always interested in the environment, but there was no real outlet for his interest in school or business at the time.  After graduating, he took a year off and a friend of his from Princeton called him from Budapest, Hungary and told him that action around environmental issues were happening there, so he made his way to Hungary where he and his friend started the Environmental Management Law Association in Eastern Europe. The company was a hybrid between a nonprofit and consulting organization. Within a couple of months Nicholas and Peter Kellner were advising the Environmental Minister of Hungary.  They wanted to help the locals catch up to the West in terms of environmental management. They won a contract from the EPA, in conjunction with the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund in California, to train regional mayors outside of Budapest on environmental management.  Nicholas traveled to California from Hungary to meet with the International Director of the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund where they talked about how to implement the EPA contract. At the end of the meeting, Nicholas was offered an environmental legal job with the Sierra Club Legal Defense Fund, which he knew he should have been elated about since he was accepted into Law school and had planned a career as an environmental lawyer, but he felt deflated.  Inspired to Create Solutions to Environmental Problems However, he had an epiphany and realized he did not want to be a lawyer and sue people, but rather  that he wanted to use the tools of business to create solutions that addressed environmental problems. This became his journey. He was inspired by the post cold war zeitgeist of harnessing the tools of business to solve problems, and he wanted to combine business and environment in a way that was impactful, profitable, and good for people.  Nicholas went back to Cambridge for law school where he learned a lot and could apply it in several ways. He found the professors who had an environmental intersections, including environmental management, environmental economics, and spent his time studying the intersection between environment and business, and in an exchange program, he took an entrepreneurship class at The Business School in Berkeley. At that time in California the Internet was exploding. So, he started an internet company called MyPoints.com, an email marketing company that encouraged people to accept spam. It went public and Nicholas had to make the decision to become an advisor instead of  taking a full time position and went back to law and for two years worked in environmental law at a large San Francisco law firm where his goal was to bring together cleantech businesses and investors. He convinced the law firm to sponsor a CleanTech pitch event for companies starting to come up with business concepts to solve environmental problems. After a few positions where he was bringing together business and environmental solutions, he  Businesses Focused on Environmental Solutions After a few years and  positions where he was bringing together business and environmental solutions, he was asked to partner at a small consulting company called Green Water, which focused on helping business institute greener practices and products. They helped to develop a strategy for GE's Ecomagination campaign, the success of which inspired other corporate leaders, who wanted to compete in this space. Ultimately, the company was sold and this led to a new chapter where Nicholas began doing more work in sustainability, including starting the non profit DACCoalition.Org, CircularCarbon.Org, and PureEnergyPartners.Com. Global Thermostat, a company founded by his father and a partner from Columbia, was created to be a game-changing company that could help with the effects of greenhouse gas. Nicholas was an early investor and advisor. It was realized that simply limiting what we put into the atmosphere is not enough, and that we need to extract billions of tonnes of CO2 from the atmosphere on top of stopping the emission of it. This needs to be done in the next 70-70 plus years, which means tens of billions of tonnes a year need to be extracted. Reducing CO2 Emissions on Global Level Will and Nicholas discussed ways to reduce CO2 emissions on a global level. Biological methods such as planting trees and mangroves, restoring natural ecosystems, and stopping deforestation are important, but they are not sufficient to address the amount of emissions that have been produced in the last 150 years. Direct Air Capture, a technology developed by Global Thermostat can extract more carbon dioxide than trees can in a single year, per square meter. This technology works like a sponge, using an ultra high surface area material to attract and bind CO2 molecules. Industrial fans are used to suck the air through the material, and then low temperature heat is used to drive the molecules off the contactor and collect them so they can be sequestered or used in products. This technology is helpful in removing billions of tons of CO2 from the atmosphere each year. Inspirational Professors and Courses Professors and courses that had an impact on Nicholas include Stephen Jay Gould, and the History of Earth and Life, and the scientific magic of our existence; Michael Sandel's course on justice, and Bob Stevens at the Kennedy School who taught about the discipline of economics.

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Animal welfare certified meat is not a stepping stone to meat reduction or abolition, published by Stijn on March 4, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Summary: evidence from a survey suggests that campaigning for farm animal welfare reforms and promoting animal welfare certified meat could in the long run result in a suboptimal state of continued animal suffering and exploitation. Campaigns to reduce or eliminate animal-based meat and promote animal-free meat substitutes are probably more effective in the long run. Note: this research is not yet published in academic, peer-reviewed literature. The debate: welfarism versus abolitionism There is an ongoing debate within the animal advocacy movement, between so-called welfarists or moderates on the one side and abolitionists or radicals on the other side. The welfarist camp aims for welfare improvements of farm animals. Stronger animal welfare laws are needed to reduce animal suffering. The abolitionists on the other hand, want to abolish the property status of animals. This means abolishing the exploitation of animals, eliminating animal farming and adopting an animal-free, vegan diet. The abolitionists are worried that the welfarist approach results in complacency, by soothing the conscience of meat eaters. They argue that people who eat meat produced with higher animal welfare standards might believe that eating such animal welfare certified meat is good and no further steps to further reduce farm animal suffering are needed. Those people will not take further steps towards animal welfare because of a believe one already does enough. Complacency could delay reaching the abolitionist's desired goal, the abolition of the exploitation of animals. Animal welfare regulations are not enough, according to abolitionists, because they do not sufficiently reduce animal suffering. People will continue eating meat that is only slightly better in terms of animal welfare. In the long run, this results in more animal suffering compared to the situation where people adopted animal-free diets sooner. In extremis, the welfarist approach could backfire due to people engaging in moral balancing: eating animal welfare certified meat might decrease the likelihood of making animal welfare improving choices again later. Welfarists, on the other hand, argue that in the short run demanding abolition is politically or socially unfeasible, that demanding animal welfare improvements is more tractable, and that these welfare reforms can create a momentum for ever increasing public concern of animal welfare, resulting in eventual reduction and abolition of animal farming. According to welfarists, animal welfare reforms are a stepping stone to reduced meat consumption and veganism. Meat consumers will first switch to higher quality, ‘humane' meat with improved animal welfare standards in production. And after a while, when this switch strengthens their concern for animal welfare and increases their meat expenditures (due to the higher price of animal welfare certified meat), they will reduce their meat consumption and eventually become vegetarian or vegan. The stepping-stone model Who is right in this debate between abolitionists and welfarists? There is no strong empirical evidence in favor of one side or the other. But recently, economists developed an empirical method that can shed light on this issue: a stepping stone model of harmful social norms (Gulesci e.a., 2021). A social norm is a practice that is dominant in society. In its simplest form, the stepping stone model assumes three stones that represent three social states. The first stone represents the current state where people adopt a harmful social norm or costly practice L (for low value). In the example of food consumption, this state corresponds with the consumption of convention...

Dr. Reilly will be on with Rich every Wednesday at 5pm! On Saturday night, Temple University police Officer Christopher Fitzgerald was shot to death while responding to a robbery at 17th Street and West Montgomery Avenue, according to 6ABC News. Chad Pradelli and Sharifa Jackson report that the alleged shooter “stood over [Officer Fitzgerald] and shot him several more times in the head while he was on the ground.” The alleged shooter is being held without bail—he was arrested in 2021 for making a terroristic bomb threat. While in Warsaw, Poland, President Joe Biden was asked to react to Russia's decision to roll back elements of the New Start Nuclear arms reduction treaty—he declined and said he didn't have time.

"Working with Acute Pain Colleagues on Opioid Reduction in the Postsurgical Population," by Priyanka Singla, MD, Assistant Professor; Christian Renwick, Medical Student; Lynn Kohan, MD, Professor and Program Director of the Pain Medicine Fellowship; and Bhavana Yalamuru, MD, Assistant Professor; all of the University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Virginia.

Episode Notes In Virginia, incarceration is expensive. In prison and jails across the state, inmates have to pay to communicate with family members. They also have to pay for extra food, clothing, and sanitary products in the prison commissary. And with the highest prison wages only 45¢ per hour, the burden of paying these fees often falls on inmates' families. Last year, Virginia's General Assembly organized a work group to study fees inside state prisons. They delivered a 50 page report, called “Reduction or Elimination of Costs and Fees Charged to Inmates in State Correctional Facilities.” Among other things, the report called for the elimination of fees for emails, video chats, and phone calls. It also called for the elimination of up-charges at prison commissaries and an increase in how much the state spends on prisoner meals. In this year's Assembly session, lawmakers introduced some bills to implement these changes, in both state prisons and local jails. However, both bills failed in the Republican-majority House of Delegates. To help us dig deeper, we talk with Irene Shin, who represents the 86th District in the House of Delegates, and Fran Bolin, the Executive Director of Assisting Families of Inmates.

Lately, more and more companies are unfortunately finding themselves in a situation where they need to lay off part of their workforce. This discussion outlines some of the high-level considerations to keep in mind as companies navigate this process, including whether to offer the impacted employees' severance or other benefits like extended COBRA; whether the company should require employees to sign a release in connection with severance offer, and if there is any risk of violating the ADEA, WARN Act, or other protective state or federal statutes. The panelists also address extending the post-termination period during which an employee might be eligible to exercise vested stock options, and the PR ramifications of layoffs.  Speakers: Megan Monson, Partner, Employee Benefits & Executive CompensationJulie Levinson Werner, Partner, Employment Counseling & LitigationJessica Kriegsfeld, Associate, Employee Benefits & Executive Compensation

The Nobel prize winning economist Dr. Milton Friedman, said the business of a business  is making money - but within the acceptable social norms. Dr. Raghuram Rajan, Katherine Dusak Miller Distinguished Service Professor of Finance at Chicago Booth School and he was the 23rd Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, looks into how “social norms” have changed and how the businesses need to adapt to adopt sustainable practices. May it be their impact on the planet, how they treat their employees and or make their products. He talks about how there needs to be regulations to guide and help the corporations to achieve these goals.Further, with countries setting goals for netzero, how can we actually have a plan that is accountable and works. Dr. Rajan proposes a global incentive scheme to reduce carbon emissions. On April 19th, 2022 he presented this solution to The Coalition of Finance Ministers for Climate Action that required countries who exceed the per capita global country average for carbon emissions, estimated at 5 tons, will pay to a global carbon incentive fund. He calls this payment Global Carbon Incentives (GCI). He further explains - “this annual payment would be calculated by multiplying the excess emissions per capita by the country's population and a dollar amount called the Global Carbon Incentive. So if the country's population is 30 million, its per capita emission in 17 tons, and the GCI is set at $10, it would pay $30 million*(17-5)*10= $3.6 billion. Countries below the global per capita average would receive a payout commensurate with their “under-emission”.This fund could be managed by a quasi government agency like the World Bank. Mindful Businesses is one of the first media outlets to share Dr. Rajan's solution.

Whether you're sober curious, want to cut back, or just want to get some more information on the impacts of alcohol, you've come to the right place. This is our first time on the podcast taking a closer look at the health implications of alcohol to determine if it is something that can be used in ‘moderation' or could be scaled down completely. This week, we are joined with This Naked Mind senior coach and functional nutritionist Teri Patterson to help us spill the tea. We answer these burning questions: Where is the best place to start if you are thinking about quitting or reducing alcohol? How do you set meaningful intentions related to alcohol? How do you dictate the role that alcohol has in our lives? Alcohol's affect in our dopamine and pleasure receptors—how does this impact our other pleasures in life? Does alcohol impact blood sugar, cortisol, and other hormones? Are there safe levels of alcohol consumption? Are there healthier types of alcohol? What are some other tools that we can use when we are uncomfortable without libations? Let's help reframe the thoughts: what can be gained by reducing alcohol? Take a listen, you won't regret it!

Moderate Scoliosis is defined as a curvature of at least 25 degrees. If despite bracing, the curvature has already developed to 40 degrees, surgery may now be considered. Surgery is likely to be recommended in teenagers with curves reaching 50 degrees or higher. However, the patient has the last say. The degree of discomfort, capacity to accomplish daily work and enjoy everyday activities and personal preferences about physical appearance are all factors to consider before deciding on surgery. PSSR is helpful in stabilizing the Cobb angle and, in rare situations, can decrease the Cobb angle in teenagers. For severe Scoliosis, doctors frequently prescribe surgery. Severe Scoliosis is commonly defined as 50 degrees or more; however, depending on the patient's stage of skeletal development, vertebral body tying may be advised at 40 degrees, 45 degrees, or even 49 degrees. Most Scoliosis surgeons believe that adolescents with very severe curves (45 to 50 degrees or more) will require surgery to reduce the curvature and keep it from worsening.  When treating curves between 25 and 39 degrees using the non-surgical Silicon Valley Method, an average of 35% decrease is achieved.

A 35-year-old with several children discovers she is having a twin pregnancy. This is happy news, until a potential abnormality in twin B is found. Twin B is measuring much smaller than twin A — almost a full 10 to 14 days behind — and there is fluid around the fetus. While it is too early to diagnose, it appears there is a brain abnormality.The patient, with a lot of apprehension and many questions, sees high-risk obstetrician Dr. Maeve Hopkins. Genetic testing is needed for decision-making — to help determine if twin B can survive or if the patient's life and twin A are at risk, meaning a pregnancy reduction will need to be considered. Dr. Hopkins orders a biopsy of twin B's placenta.The results from genetic testing reveal that twin B has three sets of chromosomes, instead of two. This results in a rare genetic condition that causes severe birth defects. Most pregnancies in this situation end in either miscarriage or stillbirth. While there are very rare cases of live births, survival is generally limited to an average of five to seven days.Carrying the fetus poses significant risk to both the patient and twin A. There could be a build up of amniotic fluid and difficulty swallowing for twin B, which could lead to preterm labor symptoms and birth, as well as stillbirth. Losing twin B in utero may increase the risk of losing twin A and put the patient at risk, too.In this case, there are two options.One is expectant management, which is essentially to wait and see. The other is a multi-fetal pregnancy reduction, where the cardiac activity of twin B is stopped, and the patient continues with a single twin pregnancy. While pregnancy reduction is considered a fairly safe procedure, there is a small risk that the patient could still lose twin A.“I think she was somewhat in shock,” Dr. Hopkins shared. “And I think she wanted some guidance, which is always difficult when patients want to know what to do … it's a very personal, very familial decision for the patient … I generally say these are the risks to you, these are the possible outcomes, and these are the risks of a procedure. And a procedure likely carries less risk than continuing a twin pregnancy. And ultimately, she was able to make the decision.”The patient decides to move forward with the reduction procedure. Reflecting back, Dr. Hopkins shared, “What I've learned practicing high-risk OB is when you face a situation like this with a patient, it is impossible to know what decision that you would make if you were in that clinical situation … So just taking a step back and not necessarily trying to put yourself in the patient's shoes, but just stepping back and giving the information and just listening to the patient. I think as high-risk obstetricians, we're often the ones who have these stories and who see these patients, whether we're political or not, that's a life-saving procedure for us many times.”

Welcome to Wednesday Q&A, where you ask questions and we answer them! In this Wednesday Q&A, we answer your questions about weight bearing in the hands, practicing LYT Yoga for decreased anxiety, and advice for persistent anterior knee pain. Your questions:Can we talk about the hand? I've heard of toe yoga and I use it in my PT practice and self-practice. Is there hand yoga? One thing my local LYT instructor says in class is to press the base of my index finger into the mat during any weight-bearing through the arm. I struggle with this. How can I improve and can you go into the physiology behind it?Can LYT help my anxiety? Sometimes I've felt increased anxiety in other flow classes.My question pertains to the stigma of knee pain. It seems as though the cottage industry of relief for knee pain has created an environment whereby if you experience ongoing knee pain, you must simply be doing something wrong. Despite my ongoing LYT practice and other attempts to remedy said knee pain, it still persists. Specifically, I experience this pain when walking downhill, downstairs, or doing things like weighted lunges or squat pulses from high crescent. In approximate terms, it generally radiates from below the patella on either side, which makes me think meniscus. I would characterize the discomfort as acute in that in more than a few cases, it may decrease when I'm more warmed up, but it never fully goes away. While I would not expect a diagnosis to be made from anecdotes in an email, it is unreasonable to think that some knee pain may not be entirely correctable through “better movement patterns,” strengthening the support structures. And if so, what metrics/means can be used to make that conclusive determination?
