What is the Capital Gains Tax?
Real estate, stocks and bonds, are a few examples of investments we choose to make in the hope of gaining some profit at some point in the future. When you sell those stocks or real estate, however, the federal government will be waiting to take its share. This is known as the "capital gains tax." Understanding the capital gains tax, and how the IRS calculates it, can be helpful in finding ways to lower the amount of capital gains tax you might own when you sell those valuable investments or other assets.
If the sale price for an asset is higher than the initial purchase price (in other words, there is a profit), the IRS calls that a "capital gain." For example, you bought a diamond pendant for your wife on your anniversary for $2,500. Five years later, you later sell the ring for $3,500, so your capital gain is $1,000. At that point, the government will impose a tax that is a percentage of your capital gain. The tax is only imposed, though, when the capital gain is actually "realized," or actually sold. This means that, because your assets increase in value, but have not been sold, the capital gain has not yet been realized and will not be taxed.
A capital gain is only imposed on the sale of a "capital" asset. This term is very broadly defined by the IRS as "almost everything you own and use for personal or investment purposes." The most common taxable assets are securities, real estate and valuable collectibles. If you sell real estate or other property, either for personal or business purposes, and profit from the sale, that qualifies as a capital gain, as well.
The tax rate that is applied to the sale of real estate will depend on whether the property was for business or personal use. An individual taxpayer is allowed to exclude up to $250,000 in capital gains from the sale of a primary residence. That amount is doubled for a married couple. Remember that a primary residence can also include a trailer or houseboat.
Although making short-term investments, with higher interest rates, may seem like the smart move, after the capital gains tax is imposed, you will likely have much less profit than you expected. One of the common ways to lower capital gains taxes is to avoid short-term investments. Long-term investments nearly always have a lower tax rate. If you fall in the lowest tax bracket, you will likely pay no taxes on long-term capital gains.
Another good way to lower your capital gains tax is to shelter as much of your income as you can in tax-deferred retirement accounts. Retirement accounts, such as 401(k)s, Roth IRAs and Traditional IRAs are great examples of accounts that you can buy, sell and exchange within the account itself. That way, you will not be assessed a capital gains tax. For this reason, retirement accounts can provide shelter from the capital gains tax for your investments, as long as the money earned from the sale continues to be reinvested into another security.

Sip on Local Suds at the Fall Beer Fest
A host of area brewhouses'll gather in the Arts District for socializing, sips, and a good cause.
By Alysia Gray Painter	• Published at 10:56 am on November 8, 2018
Fall Beer Fest
Sunday, Nov. 11, noon to 5 p.m.
Arts District Brewing Company parking lot
Parking lot parties, in a lot of spots around the nation, naturally wind down as fall revs up.
For these wide spaces? They're outside, under the sky, open to the elements, and no "spoiler alert" is required there. After all, we didn't say "parking garage," which is another matter entirely.
But where parking lot parties still exist, even into November? Point two thumbs in the direction of Southern California, which is a location that still sees a number of lot-based larks, even into the eleventh month.
What to do, where to go and what to see
ROW DTLA Jan 18
Smorgasburg LA's Sound-Strong Sunday
Restaurant Week Jan 18
dineL.A. to Deliver Oodles of Dining Deals
Again, we'll skip the "spoiler alert" on that revelation, too. But here's a spoiler alert for those who love suds that are made in the SoCal region: There's a Fall Beer Fest brewing in the parking lot of the Arts District Brewing Company on Sunday, Nov. 11.
The hours? It's as afternoon-y as afternoon-y affairs come: Noon to 5 o'clock is the span you want to keep in hand.
The breweries set to show and pour? The day's host'll be there, of course, as well as Yorkshire Square Brewery, Imperial Western Beer Company, El Segundo Brewing Co., and several hours.
The price? It's $30, and, yes, be 21 or over. Some of the event's proceeds will help support the Armando Gallegos Memorial Foundation, which helps "... underprivileged students to obtain a better education."
And because the Fall Beer Fest is "fall"ing over what's technically the lunch hour, look for a number of food-makers to be there, serving up the vittles. Midnight Chili, Son of a Bun, and other edible purveyors'll be in the house.
Er, the parking lot, of course.

Supreme Court's Decision on Warrantless Use of GPS
Unwarranted Use of GPS Tracker in Ohio Burglary Case
The Ohio Supreme Court will review an Appeals Court reversal of a Columbus man's conviction for breaking into a home near Baltimore, Ohio.
David L. White, 24, pleaded no contest in November 2010, to improperly discharging a firearm into or at a habitation, aggravated burglary and aggravated robbery. White was sentenced to 25 years in prison altogether, with 13 years suspended.
He was accused of breaking into a home on January 23, 2010, near Baltimore with co-defendant Montie E. Sullivan. Sullivan, 19, of Columbus, pleaded no contest in October 2010 to one count of improperly discharging a firearm into a habitation and one count of aggravated burglary. He was sentenced to 19 years in prison.
According to the police report, White and Sullivan broke into a home near Baltimore, shot and killed the resident's dog and then ransacked the home, taking with them cash and electronics. Fortunately, the resident was able to escape without any injuries before the two entered through a glass door. After looting the house, White and Sullivan fled in a vehicle that was being tracked by local law enforcement officials.
Police were able to locate and track the two men to their apartment in Columbus shortly after the crime with the attached GPS tracker.
Prior to the burglary incident, Franklin County detectives had covertly placed a GPS tracking device on Sullivan's car after they had trouble following it as it drove around Columbus and nearby counties. They suspected him of being in connection with a felony case they were investigating. However, they had not obtained a warrant before installing the GPS tracking device on Sullivan's white Honda Civic.
On the day of the home invasion, deputies were tracking Sullivan's car, which they had been tracking for 13 days prior to the invasion, and realized it might have been involved in the Baltimore burglary. Upon receiving news of the incident, police followed the car back to Sullivan's Columbus home.
When law enforcement officers arrived, White and Sullivan quickly ran out the back door. At the apartment, police found and recovered the property from the Baltimore home invasion.
David White and Montie Sullivan were later captured and indicted by a grand jury.
Ripple Effects of U.S. Supreme Court's Decision
Following White's and Sullivan's initial conviction, however, an Appeals Court decided 2-t0-1 that the evidence obtained from the real-time GPS tracking device, which was installed without a court-issued warrant, should be suppressed as evidence.
Fairfield County Prosecutor Gregg Marx had asked the Ohio Supreme Court to review the Appeals Court's decision, stating that their ruling "would severely hinder the ability of law enforcement to use technology when conducting criminal investigations."
Marx, in a news release, said that he hoped the Ohio Supreme Court "will agree that use of these devices should be allowed when law enforcement has a reasonable suspicion that a car was involved in criminal conduct. This standard would allow officers to complete initial investigations in a timely and efficient manner."
In early 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that law enforcement officials would need an official court-issued warrant before using GPS technology to track suspected criminals. The Justices unanimously agreed 9-to-0 in their decision after hearing arguments on a case involving a nightclub owner and suspected cocaine dealer in Washington, D.C., whose movements were monitored for roughly 30 days with a GPS tracking device.
FBI and local law enforcement officials had initially obtained a warrant for the GPS tracker, but it had expired before they were able to attach the device to the suspect's vehicle. The suspect was convicted and sentenced to life in prison for cocaine trafficking, however, the decision was later overturned in an appeals court after it was determined that the unwarranted data collected from the GPS tracking device, violated his Fourth Amendment rights.
Likewise, the Justices ruled that the use of the GPS tracker constituted a "search," which mandates a warrant.
And in light of this recent landmark decision by the U.S. Supreme Court, Marx said that he hoped the Ohio Supreme Court would rule in the state's favor regarding their review of Sullivan's and White's appeals and let their original convictions stand.
"We will continue to fight for the ability of law enforcement to protect our citizens and to see that these two men receive justice for the acts they committed," Marx said.

Press Release: CTBA marks 25th anniversary of IGRA
The California Tribal Business Alliance marks the 25th anniversary of the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act:
When the Indian Gaming Regulatory Act (IGRA) was signed into law on Oct. 17, 1988, many tribal leaders strongly opposed the federal policy as an infringement on the sovereignty of Indian Country to operate casino-style gaming facilities on tribal lands.
In retrospect, however, IGRA, while limiting, has proven to be one of the most progressive economic tools for many tribes, particularly in California, forever changing the face of gaming in this country and making IGRA's 25th anniversary one worth recognizing.
"It's the one federal Indian policy—amidst a host of failed policies that the federal government has tried to implement over the years—that has truly helped promote and strengthen economic development and self-determination among tribal governments," said Robert Smith, Chairman of the California Tribal Business Alliance (CTBA). "While the policy has its limitations, IGRA allows America to live up to its promise to American Indians and fulfills the visions of Presidents Obama and Reagan, respectively, to 'honor treaties and recognize tribes' inherent sovereignty and right to self-government under U.S. law' and to restore tribal governments to their rightful place among the governments of this nation and to enable tribal governments, along with state and local governments to resume control over their affairs."

Avalon Kalin and Posie Currin are professional artists and educators living in Portland OR. Kalin is a DIY philosopher who creates anti-situationist art. He was the co-author of The Subconscious Art of Graffiti Removal film produced by Matt Mccormick and the studied under the first Social Practice MFA program with Harrell Fletcher at Portland State University.
Currin's work engages esoteric, ritual, and abstract poetics as strategies and directives for production. She has exhibited nationally including NYC, LA, Las Vegas, and Chicago and internationally and has participated several artist in residencies in the past.
Posie Currin and Avalon are a collaborative artist duo that research, explore and investigate visual divination through the mediums of video, photography, performance, sound, graphic design, sculpture and social practice. Our collaboration process builds upon our individual professional art practices enhancing each other to engage new and exciting discoveries and ideas within the artwork with the fundamental theme of reconnecting and recognizing patterns of hermetic wisdom in contemporary culture. For the Old School Residency we decided to use various symbols and reintroduce these ideas in new ways.
We created a "connect-the-dots" flier for people to make new possible connections between these mounds in the form of imaginary constellations.
The pine cone is an ancient symbol for the immortality of the soul, an equivalent to the lotus flower of the east. By painting them onto finger-nails we echo the ancient "Hand of Sabazius" of the ancient Thracians and show the hand in a new light.
Our parade of constellations through the town of Gorna Lipnitsa is an example of the ancient axiom "As Above, So Below". Like the constellations of the stars, we are all shapes formed of stars and always making a "procession" through space and time.
We have made a video of people considering immortality. By asking artists and locals to consider immortality while being photographed, we want to ask the viewer, what is not immortal? We also made symbols by using our bodies to twirl in the figure "eight" of infinity around the village of Gorna Lipnitsa.


LOMBARD – Montini Catholic High School students joined students all over the world during the week of Dec. 4 for an Hour of Code as a way to commemorate and celebrate Computer Science Education Week, according to a news release from the Lombard school.
Both events are held annually in recognition of the birthday of computing pioneer Adm. Grace Murray Hopper, who was born Dec. 9, 1906.
"The Hour of Code is a one-hour introduction to computer science designed to demystify code and to broaden participation in the field of computer science," Montini Technology Director Pete Farina said in the release. "It has become a worldwide effort to celebrate computer science with over 450 million hours of code completed so far."
The main goal of the movement is to provide the opportunity for students to learn computer science basics in order to help nurture creativity and problem-solving skills, the release stated. The Hour of Code is a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in more than 170 countries.
"By participating in this worthwhile project, our hope is to spark an interest in computer science and give students a chance to become creators of apps and games, not just consumers," Farina said in the release. "In today's world, every student should have at least a basic understanding of the code that runs all the apps, gadgets, and Web services that they constantly use."

Hillary Clinton blames 'pollen' for coughing fits which silenced her TWICE in one day and says antihistamines will cure it 'by tomorrow'
Hillary Clinton was hit by two coughing fits on Labor Day, with one taking four minutes during a campaign speech and the other on her plane
Democratic candidate spoke to reporters on her plane again on Tuesday and said it was allergic reaction to pollen which was behind the fit
Clinton said she had taken antihistamines and was confident she would be fine again by Wednesday
Allergic reaction comes amid mounting questions over her health
By Francesca Chambers, On Board Clinton Campaign Plane, For Dailymail.com
Published: 12:35 EDT, 6 September 2016 | Updated: 17:44 EDT, 6 September 2016
Hillary Clinton said she was feeling 'better' Tuesday after flooding her system allergy-fighting antihistamines.
'As I said, it, you know, it happens like crazy during the spring when the pollen comes, and it happens in the fall when the pollen comes,' she said.
'It lasts for a couple days and then it disappears.'
She said there's likely a large collection of videos 'going back decades' to corroborate her story.
Taking questions: Hillary Clinton went into the reporters' section of her campaign plane for the second day in a row and claimed her health was fine, saying coughing was because of 'pollen'
Medicated: Clinton said she had taken antihistamines to deal with allergies which she blamed on pollen
'I'm sure that someone is compiling right now,' said the 68-year-old Democrat, whose health has been a frequent target for Republicans.
'Now the advice, of course, is just don't talk for a day or two,' she said. 'Yeah, that's not gonna work for me. Not gonna happen. I'm just gonna keep talking...power through.
She predicted, 'By tomorrow it will be fine.'
Clinton coughed and wheezed through her first speech of the day on Monday, pausing repeatedly to wet her whistle at a Labor Day festival in Cleveland, Ohio.
Later, she had to excuse herself mid-way through a media availability with reporters during a flight when the cough came back.

Despite having a bottle of water in her hands, she was handed another glass by an aide and then turned round and walked back to her section at the front of the plane.
She finished up the question and answer session when the plane hit the ground.
At the rally Clinton said she was having an 'allergic reaction' to Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump, also in Cleveland on Monday.
Trump's campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, quipped that the coughing fit was a reaction to flying with the press for first time.
'I'm allergic to him. That's what I said,' Clinton told reporters Tuesday morning as her campaign plane was taking off for Tampa, Florida.
Hillary Clinton caught a case of dry mouth on Monday afternoon that caused her to choke and cough through the first few minutes of her stump speech at a Labor Day event in Ohio
Clinton washed down a throat lozenge after the coughing fit, which she comically wrote off as an allergic reaction to Donald Trump
Second attack: Hillary Clinton suffered another bout of coughing on Monday on her campaign plane when she went to speak to reporters
Handed glass: The candidate already had a bottle of water in her hand when she was handed a glass, apparently also containing water, and returned to her section of the campaign plane
Clinton's plane made its maiden voyage on Monday from White Plains, New York, to Cleveland.
The candidate came back to the press section to welcome reporters before the first flight and spoke to them at length from the aircraft between events in Ohio and Illinois that afternoon.
'I love having the plane. The plane makes everything so much easier,' she declared Tuesday as she surprised reporters for a second day in a row with a morning greeting.
As she did on Monday, Clinton promised to come back for a longer, more substantive chat, after reporters began throwing out questions that went beyond the scope of the conversation.
Before she left Clinton responded to an inquiry about her feelings about Trump's plane sitting on the tarmac when she arrived in Cleveland Monday.
'I didn't feel anything. Was I supposed to?' she asked.
She added, 'I've seen it before, he's flown it all over the United States, and it's usually parked where I'm about to take off from or land. I've never been on it.'
SO WHAT WAS THE POLLEN COUNT THAT DAY?
Conservatives have questioned the health of the Democratic candidate, but Clinton blamed pollen for her coughing fit during a speech on Monday.
The powdery substance - which is used by flowers in reproduction - can cause coughing, a runny nose and itchy eyes among other symptoms.
Clinton was speaking at Luke Easter Park in Cleveland, Ohio. Pollen levels in Cleveland were indeed elevated on that day, according to Pollen.com's Allergy Index, coming in at 8.9 out of 12.
That ranks the pollen levels in the website's medium-high category.
Symptoms of allergic rhinitis - or hay fever - can occur year-round or seasonally. The worst seasons for seasonal sufferers are spring, summer and/or early fall when pollen counts are high.
Clinton said she had taken antihistamines to combat the reaction. These drugs prevent the body from manufacturing histamine, which it produces during an allergic reaction and results in the allergic response.
More than 50 million Americans suffer from allergies each year, according to the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology.
Allergies are the sixth leading cause of chronic illness in the U.S. with an annual cost in excess of $18 billion.
A 2012 study found that pollen counts are on the rise and are expected to more than double by 2040.
The study blamed the rise on economic growth and also man-made changes, including increased levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Plants need CO2 to survive.

Sectarianism and Scotland
Sectarianism is a reflection of the historical, social, and political tensions of Scotland, dating back – of course – to the Reformation. Even then however, from the mid-sixteenth century, the struggle between Catholicism and the various Protestantisms of the Reformation period was always, in essence – as it was in England and on the continent, a power struggle. With the Peace of Westphalia – ending the Wars of Religion in 1648 – where states recognised the principle of cuius regio eius religio, which granted the monarch the right to determine the religion of the state.

Brexit has Exploded in Northern Ireland
Brexit was always making this more likely, and it makes perfect sense for dissidents to strike first. They have the most to lose from the collapse of the GFA. So, this was exactly what happened. Former Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams called for resistance to Brexit – political resistance, but the interpretation of that call by dissidents, keen to usurp the position of Sinn Féin and get the ball rolling on a fresh Intifada that can be escalated with the right encouragement from the British security forces, was of course going to be armed resistance.

Brexit: Britain Blinked First
In practical terms this divergence means that British rule on the island of Ireland will come to an end, ultimately bringing about the conditions in which a border poll on the constitutional future of the six counties will be reduced to little more than a legal formality. Given the population demographics of the province and the mutual economic interdependence of Ireland and the six counties, the long-term consequence of this deal – if agreed – will be the eventual unification of Ireland.

Britain and Ireland: Neighbours and Frenemies
Trust? Kinship? Not likely. Britain is the same old heart-scald it has always been to Ireland. Nothing has changed. This should be a lesson to Scotland and Wales. If people think the English state is the geopolitical equivalent of a bout of haemorrhoids while they're trying to free themselves from it, they should consider how those who have already beaten it are treated.

CRITICS OF "Dads Army"
Flicks.co.nz
I took my elderly mum to the film, and she enjoyed it well enough, but noted, "there's not much of a story, is there?"
HeyUGuys
Dad's Army has a lot of heart, and is certainly an amiable piece, but being uncynical is not enough to justify a trip to the cinema, as a film that offers little by way of jokes, or substantial narrative purpose.
British WWII comedy with slapstick action won't engage kids.
Daily Express (UK)
There really is no reason for the film to exist.
Those old enough to remember one of the high points of British comedy will surely not like this one up 'em; those who don't would be best to look away.
Who do you think you are kidding, fake Dad's Army?
It's a time-honored style of comedy, accessible to a broad audience, and it works on its own terms, without too many ill-advised attempts at modernization.
The plot creaks as much as Jones's delivery van but it gets everyone from A to B intact. A modest accomplishment, to be true, but somehow a fitting salute to a show celebrating the British art of muddling through.
RTÉ (Ireland)
A noble effort that ends up more Dunkirk than D-Day.
Even granddad has moved on from teatime comedy gags about jam roly-poly.
For fans of the original TV series, this reboot will feel like a disappointment. For everybody else, a pointless and easily avoidable misfire.
"Dad's Army," while perfectly pleasant, isn't very funny, fighting to find something grand to do with its WWII setting and cast of quirky characters. Parker isn't asleep here, but he isn't inventive either.
