Washington's famous women made a showing as well: former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin is No. 18, first lady Michelle Obama No. 21 and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton No. 32.
Poor Justin Bieber. This is the second time in a week that the teen heartthrob and perpetual trending topic on Twitter has sent the Internet into a tizzy. He has also been accused of not knowing the meaning of the word "German."
An interview on a New Zealand TV show has been making the rounds on the web, showing Bieber floundering when the host asked him if "Bieber" means "basketball" in German. He at first acted perplexed and finally said, "We don't use that word in America."

It seems likely that the host's thick Kiwi accent was the culprit here, because Bieber does appear to be familiar with German in this Bravo interview.

How Do Tax Deductions Work When Donating a Car? SEE HOW


How Do Tax Deductions Work When Donating a Car? SEE HOW
Donating your car to charity can result in significant tax savings if you include it in your charitable contribution deduction. However, doing a little planning will ensure that you maximize the tax savings of your donation. The Internal Revenue Service (IRS) requires you to calculate your deduction in one of two ways, depending on how the charity uses your donation. Deductions for cars the charity sells are limited to the sales price. In all other cases, you can use the car's fair market value.
Step 1: Find out how much the charity sold the car for

Use the price the charity obtains for your car in a sale as the amount of your deduction. For example, if the charity sells the car at auction for $3,000, your deduction is limited to $3,000, even if the fair market value is $4,500. However, if the charity sells the car at a discount to a needy individual or keeps the car for its own internal use, then you can claim a deduction for its fair market value.
Step 2: Determine the car's fair market value

The IRS suggests that you use a reputable used-car price guide to calculate your deduction when using fair market value. For example, go to your local library and obtain a recent copy of the Kelley Blue Book. Search the private party prices for your vehicle based on its make, model and overall condition. This type of search can be done on the Internet as well.
Step 3: Claiming the deduction

Report the amount of your deduction on line 17 of Schedule A. Since you can only claim a deduction for your car donation if you itemize, the total of all your eligible expenses on Schedule A must exceed the standard deduction amount for your filing status.

If you use TurboTax to prepare your taxes, we’ll help you determine which filing status will get you the biggest tax savings.
Step 4: Additional forms you'll need

Complete Form 8283 if your car donation deduction is more than $500. If your deduction is between $501 and $5,000, you must complete Section A. If your deduction is greater than $5,000, you must complete Section B. If you complete Section B, you must also obtain a written appraisal as documentation.

Again, if you use TurboTax, we’ll ask simple questions and fill in all the right forms for you.

Tips

    If the charity sells your car sells for $500 or less, you can deduct $500 or your car’s fair market value, whichever is less. For example, if your car is valued at $650 but sells for $350, you can deduct $500.
    Most charities will report the sales price of your car to you on Form 1098-C.

Warnings

    You must have documentation of your donation. At a minimum, the documentation you receive from the charity must include your name, the vehicle identification number, the date of your donation and a statement describing the goods and services you received, if any.

Can You Donate Car to Charity California?

  •     Check if you may receive a new tax gain for ones donation.

  •     Look up the valuation on your car (however, you can only take the actual amount your charity offers your vehicle for).

  •     Ask if you, being a donor, have other responsibilities.

In add-on, you may want to consider:

  •     How can your automobile be used?

  •     Will the cash from your sale of this car be used locally and out of your current community?

  •     Which usually programs as well as services inside charity can receive support from the actual sale?

    It is possible to efficiency ranking of the particular charity? (A reduced rating means more of your respective donation moves toward administrative costs, not to the plans and solutions you need to support.)  

10 Ways and How to choose a criminal lawyer in art of court


 10 Ways and How to choose a criminal lawyer in art of court
If found guilty of a criminal offense, you are potentially facing jail time, significant fines and even forfeit of property, including vehicles and other valuable possessions. So choosing an experienced criminal defense lawyer who has court experience, litigation success and expert knowledge of the law is essential to ensuring you receive the best defense and personal outcome.

There are a variety of ways to find a criminal lawyer, ranging from the yellow pages, to online search engines to word of mouth recommendations from friends and colleagues you trust. In almost all cases, you should meet with several lawyers before making a decision. Most lawyers provide a free initial consultation, during which they expect you to ask a lot of questions about their experience and your case.

Here are 11 important questions to ask your potential lawyer:
How many years have you been representing persons accused of a crime?

This provides you with an understanding of the lawyer’s experience.
How many years have you specialized in criminal defense of serious charges?

A lawyer can be in practice for many years and not represent a criminal client. You want someone who has practical experience in criminal defenses, in obtaining reduced charges as well as court room experience.
What is your track record in having criminal charges dropped or reduced?

This is an important question since it would be preferable not to go to court and defend a criminal charge.
What percentage of your cases have gone to trial?

It is also very important that your lawyer has court experience if your case does make it to court.
How many criminal guilty and not guilty verdicts have you had?

A lawyer with an excellent “not guilty” verdict record does not mean they will win your case, but it does bode well if the lawyer has a track record with many positive outcomes.
How many criminal cases have you handled that are like mine?

Every situation is different, so it is possible and even likely the lawyer has not handled a case just like yours, but it is preferable if the lawyer has represented criminal cases that were similar to yours.
What are the key concerns you have with my situation?

It is important to know any concerns your lawyer may have before you hire them, so that you know what factors could affect the verdict and how they will approach your defense.
What do you think the outcome of my case will be?

An experienced criminal attorney will not be able to guarantee a specific outcome but they should have a perspective and experience they can draw from to give you an idea on what to expect.
Who in your office will be handling my case and how will you communicate with me?

You should know who from the lawyer’s team will be working on your case and what experience they have in preparing and defending criminal charges. You must also know who will be the primary point of contact and how often you should expect to interact directly with your lawyer.
What is the potential cost of my defense?

Undertaking a criminal defense in court can be expensive depending on the complexity of the case. The lawyer should provide you with a reasonable estimated cost given your circumstances. You should be leery of a lawyer who quotes you fees that seem too low. This is also why it is important to interview more than one lawyer.

As much as you need the criminal lawyer to be honest with you, you also need to be totally honest with the lawyer. Don’t be afraid to honestly answer questions asked by the attorney regarding the situation and circumstances leading up to and then after the arrest.  What you tell the lawyer is protected under attorney-client privilege, which means it can’t be used against you later in the trial.
