![]() ![]() I don’t have the same difficulty distancing myself from my work as maybe some people do. When I’m not doing a story about a crime, I’m thinking about something else. It probably has something to do with the fact that for most of my career, I wasn’t a crime reporter - I did all kinds other stuff, so I had many different sorts of interests. it doesn’t tend to carry over into bedtime: When it’s time to relax, it’s time to relax, move on to something else. How I deal with the stress of my job: You’d think it would affect a person more than it does. I met him, oh gosh, he was 75 back then … I asked him, “What do you do, you’re on the road all the time, there’s all this crappy food around, how do you stay healthy and keep reasonably fit?” because he looked terrific. I would add only one thing, something I actually heard Mike Wallace say once. ![]() Those kind of sunk in, and I’m careful about what I eat. Jack had his “Lalannisms,” as he called them, and they were really not so much about the kind of exercise you should do, they were about diet, they were about nutrition. I walk as much as I can, I try not to overeat, I follow the advice of the great Jack Lalanne, who I used to do stories about for years. How I stay healthy on the road: I think luck mostly. ![]() Sometimes when I brush my hair I have to whack it with something to make sure it doesn’t blow around in the wind. My skin-care and hair-care routine: In a word: nothing. Everybody gets anxious or worked up sometimes, but I just don’t seem to as much as many people do. I think that probably is as useful a tool as anything else. My wife calls me the Buddha, not because I necessarily have a wonderful philosophy about life, just because things don’t bother me a whole lot. ![]() Wellness, to me, is: I’m not one of those people who frets about wellness a lot. My morning routine is so varied - you never know where you’re gonna be - but, when I’m at home, I get a cup of tea for my wife and I and we’ll read the paper and take the dog for a walk. How I start my mornings: I always hope to wake up alive, and if I’ve done that …. Ahead of Friday’s episode, we spoke to Morrison on how he separates himself from the dark stories he works on and his refreshingly laid-back views on wellness. Despite his demanding schedule traveling around the country to cover grisly cases, at 69 years old, the Canadian broadcast journalist looks as youthful as ever. NBC’s Dateline has been satisfying the nation’s obsession with true crime for 25 seasons now, with correspondent Keith Morrison serving as the familiar face - and voice - of the show for nearly as long. Now we know that Morrison simply wants to look relaxed.Photo: NBC/NBCU Photo Bank via Getty Images “It just became a thing.”Īctor Dax Shepard recently told People magazine that he loves “Dateline NBC” because of Morrison’s “ability to lean on almost any surface (barbed wire, fire, wind), his high-octane brand of empathy and his spot-on eye for pairing any environment with the perfect leather jacket.” “Whenever I’ve had to do a standup, I figured the best thing to do, is to look relaxed and not look too excitable on camera, so I just lean on something,” Morrison said. Then you see when people are kind of waiving their arms around while they’re talking to you with their hands,” Morrison said. They start at one place and walk, walk, walk while they’re talking to you. “If you watch, you’ll see people walking. If you’re reading a little bit of copy and talking into a camera, I suppose, to tell part of the story you can’t cover with video or insert yourself in them somehow, I’ve never been too fond of to be honest,” Morrison said. “If you watch TV news for any length of time … a reporter appearing in a story is called a standup. We pressed Morrison for more information on how this all started. “How it became a thing? I don’t know,” Morrison told TheWrap.Īlso Read: 'Dateline NBC's' Keith Morrison Had to Be 'Dragged Into' True-Crime Storytelling (Exclusive) The bio states, “If you’re watching ‘Dateline’ right now, chances are high that Keith Morrison is leaning on something.” Morrison’s habit also has a Facebook page and had been discussed in various Reddit threads. Morrison leans on so many things that there is an Instagram page dedicated to it. “Dateline NBC” correspondent Keith Morrison has built up a cult-hero fanbase of loyal true crime fans, but they all seem to have one question: Why is he always leaning on something? ![]() ![]() Cinema 4DXL V5 is the first version that has been approved for production.

If you still don’t like how the Camera+ app focuses or if you want more control, use the focus icon above the flower icon. Touch the screen where you want to photo to be sharp.

Scroll through portrait, square, or landscape orientation and see which aspect ration you like. The second to last icon sets the aspect ratio. Camera+ will magnify the subject however, it does this digitally. Use the flower icon to turn on this mode. If you want to take photos of small objects close by, turn on macro mode. Cameras also use a continuous light to help to focus, for example. It turns on your iPhone’s flashlight, lighting your subject continuously. It will determine if there’s enough light or not, and it will use the flash accordingly. If you don’t want to decide for yourself, use the auto-icon and let the app do all the work. The next icon turns the flash off for every shot. When the lightning bolt is on, the app will use the flash all the time.

If we turn off the synchronization, we face the possibility of corruption of new DB on power outage. Unfortunately, the process is dominated by disk synchronization. This is exactly how it works now: we open the old database read-only, and just create the corresponding entries in the new one. What about using two SQlite databases for the migration? Targeting for efficiency instead is useless, since if the efficiency threshold is higher than the interactivity threshold, Tribler core becomes unresponsive, and if it is less than the interactivity threshold - the interactivity threshold will still offer more efficiency. One way is to measure sync time and adjust batch size, so that sync time does not dominate.Īs I have written above, we already dynamically adjust the batch size so it gets to the maximum size that does not affect other stuff running on the reactor. The problem is, writing to the database locks it for the main thread. It is already done in a background thread.

These rules include small businesses earning more than $1 million. There are sometimes certain taxpayer groups exempt. If you operate your business as a Sole Proprietorship or a single-member Limited Liability Company (LLC), gross receipts go on Schedule C of your IRS Form 1040. Corporation Income Tax Return (for a C corporation ), or IRS Form 1120-S, U.S. In such a case, gross receipts go on Form 1120, U.S. Unlike sales tax, individual taxpayers are exempt since the guidelines only apply to businesses.Īccording to the Ohio Revised Code defines the taxes as “The definition of gross receipts for the purposes of Commercial Activity Tax” and as “the total amount realized by a person, without deduction for the cost of goods sold or other expenses incurred, that contributes to the production of the complete earnings of the person, including the fair market value of any property and any services used, and any debt transferred or forgiven as consideration.” Tax-Exempt Partiesĭifferent rules apply to different varieties of business.įor example, Suppose you operate your business as a corporation. Gross receipts tax is a tax that some businesses must pay to the local state government based on the receipts a business must pay every year. Even though the transaction didn’t exchange any money, the value of the labor is subject to tax.Īccounting for goods and services can be complicated, and it would be best to keep records as accurate as possible on these transactions for tax purposes. Many small business owners use the barter model to cover services like advertisements and related services. The bartering value would include the apartment’s property value market value and the value of the labor. The handyman would then include the fair market value of his rent and the property owner who allows the handyman to use his real estate in return for labor. When a business exchanges products/services with other businesses, the tax services will accept this as a transaction at fair market value.Īn example would be a handyman who provides his services to an apartment building in exchange for rent. ![]() When filling a gross receipt, you record bartered goods and services as well. In simple terms, you can trade a service or a good for a service or goods instead of a monetary exchange. The IRS defines bartering as an exchange of property or services between an entity and another entity and has special rules. What you’ve calculated is the entire amount your business receives from all sources during its Tax Year, without subtracting the Cost of Goods Sold or deductible expenses. Because of all the areas covered, you must be careful to record all of your receipts. Gather all of your invoices and receipts and then add all of the relevant and related sums.

I personally prefer a mouse or large trackball for general “mousing,” but I keep a Magic Trackpad within reach, as well, just to take advantage of OS X’s gesture-based features.

Similarly, Apple recommends having at least 8GB of free space on your Mac’s drive, but I recommend playing it safe by aiming for 15GB or more-the Mountain Lion installer itself is over 4GB and you’ll need some room for temporary files. Most reputable vendors will make it clear which RAM they offer is specifically compatible with Macs. Some third-party RAM that’s not up to Apple’s specs will cause problems when you upgrade your OS. A word of advice here: If you don’t buy your RAM directly from Apple, be sure you get RAM that’s specifically guaranteed for use in Macs. If you have only 2GB installed, you might consider a hardware upgrade before installing OS X 10.8. (Note that while the above computers can install Mountain Lion, some features, such as Power Nap, AirPlay mirroring, and AirDrop,Īpple also says you need 2GB of RAM (memory), although in my experience, you’ll enjoy better results with at least 4GB.
