The selected taxpayers will get letters from the IRS that will name the company handling their debts. That letter will include information advising taxpayers of their rights.
It will be followed by another letter from the collection agencies telling the taxpayers they will soon be contacted for payment and specifying the amount owed.
The selected taxpayers can then expect a phone call or an additional letter from the collection agency requesting payment. Bennett cautioned that debt repayment is sent to the IRS, not a private company.
Taxpayers uncertain about the process or wanting to verify the letters are legitimate can call the IRS at 800-829-1040.

In late 2000, Greeley created fictitious vendors and authorized payment from Hannaford to the fictitious vendors for services that were never performed. Greeley deposited the checks issued by Hannaford to the fictitious vendors into accounts he had established. Greeley obtained approximately $657,260 during the course of this fraudulent scheme.

I've registered for the platform as a blogger and advertiser and adoption is growing fast on both sides of the marketplace. I've also searched for paid posts across the blogosphere and find a more intelligent, mature, open adoption than the soulless-shilling originally feared. In fact, I see quality organic posts growing alongside sponsored posts by PPP adopters.

The state Housing Authority continues to twist the arms of builders and subcontractors to provide employee health insurance if they hope to land a state contract. As if that isn'’t enough, next on the hit list are building suppliers.
What's next -- the coffee wagon that visits job sites?
If the Housing Authority's charge is "creating decent, safe, affordable housing," it is getting in its own way by driving up contractors' costs of doing business....
Besides having the effect of favoring larger firms that might better afford to offer health insurance...

"You do get extremes of positions on either side, but what has been surprising and recent is the number of Israeli bloggers who are reaching out to the Lebanese blogs and putting comments there," said the Lebanese host of blog-aggregator Open Lebanon, who tracks more than 100 blogs a day in real time. (He asked to remain anonymous, citing conflicts of interest with his public profile at a large global firm.) "The majority of them could be classified as conciliatory. It is obvious Israelis will not favor a Hezbollah win, but would rather see a moderate, modern, democratic, strong type of government in Lebanon, so they gently 'push' the Lebanese bloggers towards these directions."
English is a convenient lingua franca. The Lebanese blogosphere, drawing from a trilingual Arabic-, French- and English-speaking population, is chiefly English. So when the war broke out, many Hebrew-language bloggers switched to English in a deliberate attempt to reach across the border, according to Goldman, who provides a regular roundup of the Israeli blogosphere for global blog aggregator Global Voices Online.

Chuman, the Beirut man who fled for Chicago, had sampled the Israeli blogosphere in April and found it a nuanced and informed contrast to what he could glean from traditional news outlets. "The lack of news about Israel -- not an unimportant country in the region -- is astounding," wrote the political consultant, under his then-nom-de-Web, Lebanon Profile. "Not knowing about 'them' is the worst crime we can commit. It invalidates them as humans, as if they don't even matter. They are Stalin's faceless enemy, the rabid dog, the evil blood suckers whom it is righteous to kill. Our papers definitely need to start covering more than major political events in Israel."
Several Israeli bloggers contacted him. "It was around the time of Holocaust Remembrance Day and memorials for soldiers and I was learning a lot. I'd never read that before. A lot of people were touched by what I wrote, and we developed quite a community," he said.

Michael, who did not attend the commission's meeting, said later the panel should have disqualified Merrill from receiving public financing, an option that the panel rejected after one commissioner described it as "very draconian." Under Wednesday's ruling, Michael said, any publicly funded candidate who is willing to pay a fine can use tax dollars to make illegal retroactive payments to campaign workers.

"It's a vindication of the referendum and moratorium," Mayor Michael Hurley told the Maine Times. The moratorium enabled the community to engage in "an incredibly valuable debate across kitchen tables, in coffee shops, on the street corner, in barbershops, in the co-op. People learned a lot about our economy and about the predatory practices" of big-box retailers like Wal-Mart and Home Depot.
Hurley has accused members of the commission of trying to "run out the clock"” by not reporting back to the city council concerning the issue of retail development in Belfast. In addition, he stated that the commission consists almost entirely now of members who are opposed to large-scale "big box" development.

Beijing, China -- Lei Dayong, a lay Buddhist from the Tongzhou district of Beijing, was sentenced in February to four years in prison for printing Buddhist scriptures.
....In a previous instance, a Christian Pastor, Cai Zhuohua, was sentenced to three years for printing unauthorized copies of the Christian Bible.
One clear indication that the consultants' results are flawed: they'’re not even getting the total number of clicks correct. We have seen some instances of reports showing 1.5 times the number of clicks in our logs --– for example, in one case 1,278 clicks were claimed as being "fraudulent" by the consultant while only 850 actually even appeared as clicks in Google's logs.
More evidence of the consultants'’ defective methodology is revealed when looking at conversion rates. We found clicks identified as "fraudulent" in reports often converted at nearly the same rate (and in some cases better) compared to other clicks. In one case, "fraudulent clicks" converted 5.1% of the time -- only a bit less than the advertiser's overall conversion rate of 5.8%.
[K]indergartners at Fairfax County's Graham Road Elementary School, one of seven county elementary schools that reopen early in August, sang an alphabet song, learned how to stand in line -- and started Spanish lessons.
The 30-minute lesson, taught solely in Spanish....
Beginning this school year in the District, Shepherd Elementary School in Northwest Washington is planning to offer a pre-kindergarten French immersion program -- with some lessons in French and others in English -- and Thomson Elementary in Northeast is launching a Mandarin immersion class. Arlington County schools are adding a Spanish pilot program at two elementary schools.

The GAO probe follows a similar inquiry in 2003 and 2004 when undercover investigators crossed unhindered into the United States at least 14 times using counterfeit drivers' licenses and, in one case, an expired, altered U.S. diplomatic passport. During that investigation, however, border agents in New York and Florida stopped three undercover officials who were using expired and forged passports, drivers' licenses or birth certificates.
By comparison, between February and June 2006, 18 GAO investigators breezed by border agents at checkpoints in California, Texas, Michigan, Idaho, Washington state, and twice each in Arizona and New York. In two cases - in Arizona and California - border agents did not ask the undercover investigators for any identification.
