David Blair of QuadCap Wealth Management and Estimated Payments

David Blair of QuadCap Wealth Management reminds business owners that estimated payments are due soon.

2011-04-08

DALLAS, TX, April 08, 2011 (Press-News.org) David Blair of QuadCap Wealth Management, LLC, recently spoke to a group of Dallas business owners regarding the necessity of withholding and/or estimated payments.

An excerpt of this talk follows: "The United States tax system is a pay-as-you-go system that requires taxpayers to pay as the income they are taxed on is earned. If you are paying your taxes throughout the year through withholding, you can increase this towards the end of the year to make up any shortfall. If you are self-employed however, you must make estimate payments throughout the year."

The first of these payments is due soon, and is based on 90% of your expected 2011 tax, or 100% (110% for some high earners) of your 2010 tax.

We started QuadCap Wealth Management, LLC to focus on a highly personalized comprehensive counseling program that is driven by dedicated personal service. Our firm provides in depth comprehensive financial counseling that covers all areas of your financial affairs, such as employee benefits planning, tax planning and preparation, asset allocation strategies, estate planning and wealth transfer strategies, as well as risk mitigation strategies.

This randomized controlled trial is the first to test shared decision making for weight-loss surgery. Researchers randomly assigned half the patients to receive an educational booklet on bariatric surgery and half to watch the video-based decision aid.

New approach to IVF embryo donations lets people weigh decision

2011-04-08

STANFORD, Calif. — People who use in vitro fertilization to conceive children often have leftover embryos and must decide whether to store them, dispose of them or possibly donate them for research. A new process developed by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine allows these people to make this decision in the privacy of their own homes — without any interaction with clinic personnel or scientists who might benefit from the research. "There is concern that conflicts of interest and influence by researchers and clinicians may play a role in donor choice," ...

Rethinking reprogramming: A new way to make stem cells

2011-04-08

A paper published by Cell Press in the April 8th issue of the journal Cell Stem Cell reveals a new and more efficient method for reprogramming adult mouse and human cells into an embryonic stem cell-like state and could lead to better strategies for developing stem cells for therapeutic use. The ability to reprogram adult cells into cells that resemble embryonic stem cells has tremendous potential for both stem cell research and regenerative medicine. "Previous studies have demonstrated the usefulness of iPSCs not only in the study of basic stem biology, but also in ...

A new way to make reprogrammed stem cells

2011-04-08

PHILADELPHIA - Researchers at the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine have devised a totally new and far more efficient way of generating induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), immature cells that are able to develop into several different types of cells or tissues in the body. The researchers used fibroblast cells, which are easily obtained from skin biopsies, and could be used to generate patient-specific iPSCs for drug screening and tissue regeneration. iPSCs are typically generated from adult non-reproductive cells by expressing four different genes called ...

Political views are reflected in brain structure

2011-04-08

We all know that people at opposite ends of the political spectrum often really can't see eye to eye. Now, a new report published online on April 7th in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, reveals that those differences in political orientation are tied to differences in the very structures of our brains. Individuals who call themselves liberal tend to have larger anterior cingulate cortexes, while those who call themselves conservative have larger amygdalas. Based on what is known about the functions of those two brain regions, the structural differences are consistent ...

Through evolution, cavefish have lost sleep

2011-04-08

Cave life is known to favor the evolution of a variety of traits, including blindness and loss of eyes, loss of pigmentation, and changes in metabolism and feeding behavior. Now researchers reporting online on April 7 in Current Biology, a Cell Press publication, have added sleeplessness to that list. "Cave-adapted fish sleep less—much less—than closely related surface fish," said Richard Borowsky of New York University. "In some ways, their sleep phenotypes are similar to those of humans with sleep disorders." The fish do sleep, but only for relatively short periods, ...

Monkeys provide malaria reservoir for human disease in Southeast Asia

2011-04-08

Monkeys infected with an emerging malaria strain are providing a reservoir for human disease in Southeast Asia, according to research published today. The Wellcome Trust funded study confirms that the species has not yet adapted to humans and that monkeys are the main source of infection. Malaria is a potentially deadly disease that kills over a million people each year. The disease is caused by malaria parasites, which are transmitted by infected mosquitoes and injected into the bloodstream. There are five species of malaria parasite that are known to cause disease ...
