But there is one simple step that can save you and your business headache, heartache (and money): double-check all reporting documents and deadlines. While checking these easy-to-find facts seems like a simple thing to do, it is one of the most neglected actions among small- to mid-sized companies. It is vital to double-check the information on tax forms for accuracy, while also making yourself aware of all year-end deadlines to prevent fines or other penalties. Going by what you did last year is never enough, as forms, deadlines and regulations can change in subtle ways. Raising the stakes, in recent years, the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has increased penalties for misfiled or late tax forms. As a result, it’s essential to be vigilant in assembling and reviewing reporting documents. Re-reading those forms and setting reminders may be the easy fix that saves your business time, money and aggravation. “Small-business leaders have enough stress in their daily lives, the last thing they need is to wonder after the fact if they have complied with all deadlines and regulations,” says Janice Krueger, a tax and reporting expert at Greatland, one of the country’s leading providers of W-2 and 1099 products for business. “A recent study revealed that 43 percent of filers are concerned about being fined by the IRS for not complying with new rules or regulations when reporting. We want to help alleviate those concerns by informing taxpayers about filing requirements and deadlines, along with the ramifications of errors, late filings and failure to file.” Many 1099 and W-2 reporting penalties have increased over the past few years and it is critical that businesses file and complete all wage and income filings on time. Here is a list of filing penalties for W-2 and 1099 forms Greatland believes taxpayers should be aware of this season: • The penalty for failing to file accurate information on returns is $60 per return • The maximum failure-to-file penalty is $1.5 million. • If returns are filed within 30 days after the due date, the penalty is $30 per return. • The maximum penalty for organizations that issue returns within 30 days is $250,000. • The penalty for filing returns more than 30 days after the due date, but before Aug. 1 is $60 per return. • The maximum penalty issuing returns more than 30 days past the due date, but before Aug. 1 is $500,000. • Failure to file information returns or if filed after Aug. 1 results in a fine of $100 per return. • For small businesses, defined as organizations with annual gross receipts of $5 million or less for the three most recent tax years: • The maximum penalty for organizations that issue returns within 30 days after the due date is $75,000. • The maximum penalty for organizations that issue returns more than 30 days past the due date, but before Aug. 1 is $200,000. • The maximum consequence for small businesses that fail to file or file after Aug. 1 is $500,000. To make sure your business has all of the accurate information needed, you can find a full list of federal and state filing regulations to remember on Greatland’s W-2 and 1099 fact center website. Those Funny Rules We All Have to Live By • • • • • • • • Unit Owners and Residents who do not adhere to the Parking Rules & Regulations will be towed at their expense.

Place all garbage inside the dumpster & contact our Maintenance Manager, Mike Ward at 631.585.4429 for large items you may require assistance. Arrange with the company delivering the new appliance(s) to remove the old appliance(s). If this is not possible, please contact Mike who may be able to assist. Our parking lot is for residents only and not for family members on vacation. And, SLOW DOWN! There are young children and other residents who have pets whom you place at risk. Quiet hours are between the hours of 10 p.m. and 8 a.m. Be considerate of your neighbors, and do not run any appliances during this time.

As you clean your cars, if possible, please be sure that the snow is not shoveled back into the street or onto the walkways. Balconies must be cleared of all snow. • Dog owners are required to walk their dogs along the dog walk area; the dog walk area is located along the south side of the parking lot just in front of the picket fence. Please be sure to always pick up after your dog. It is unsanitary and hazardous to your dog as well as your neighbor’s dog if you do not pick up. • Cleaning the hallway is the resident’s responsibility. All persons residing in their respective building must participate. A suggestion for those resident’s that have a cleaning service might be to request an extension of maid services to the outside hallway. Any additional costs – if there is any - can be shared by all residents. • Re-decorating must be agreed upon and paid for by all unit owners sharing the hallway. • If you are outside in the courtyard early in the morning or in the evening, be considerate of your neighbors (our 1 bedroom units do face the courtyard). For resident’s making use of the courtyard for recreation, please be mindful and tidy up. If you have used the BBQ, please put out any remaining fire & remove the used charcoal, empty the grease pan, dispose of cigarette butts and empty any ashtrays that should then be moved inside. • Vehicles must park within the painted lines; parking lot lines help people know where to park and where not to preventing possible damage to your vehicle. The designated striped walk way should also be clear of any vehicles having parked over the parking lines. • Hair Studio Need Solutions ?

Have you thought about other potentially serious diseases you may be at risk for as an adult? 79 $ Dr. Perez says, "A person's risk for shingles increases as they get older. Because immune systems can weaken as people age, it becomes easier for shingles to break through the body's defenses." There's no way to predict if or when someone will get shingles, or how severe the case could be. For most healthy people, after the shingles rash heals, the pain and itch subside, and the blisters leave without a trace, but in some cases, even after the rash heals, there can be permanent scarring. Prevention (CDC) estimates that one in three people will get shingles during their lifetime. Don't wait until you or a loved one get shingles. Ask your doctor today about the risk, and for more information visit www. shinglesinfo.com. This information is provided by Merck. There are approximately 1 million cases of shingles each year in the United States, and the Centers for Disease Control and Advertising Space Available! 631-223-2029 / 5starnewsletters.com / [email protected] Any person who has had chickenpox is at risk of developing shingles, and 98 percent of adults in the United States have had chickenpox. The shingles rash can last up to 30 days and appears most commonly on a single side of the torso, but can appear anywhere on the body - even the face. LOOKING TO FIND, BUY AND SELL THE THINGS Parts & Freon Additional Shingles, the common name for herpes zoster, is a disease caused by the same virus that causes chickenpox. Once a person has chickenpox, the virus never leaves the body. At some point later in life, quite unexpectedly, this virus can reactivate and erupt as shingles - a red blistering rash that can be very painful. "People with shingles have described the pain as sharp, stabbing, shooting, burning, throbbing and itchy," says Dr. Adriana Perez, PhD, ANP-BC, FAAN, assistant professor and Southwest Borderlands scholar at Arizona State University and co-director at the Hartford Center of Gerontological Nursing Excellence. "The first symptoms of shingles are often felt, but may not be seen, and may initially include itching, tingling or burning in a specific area on one side of the face or body." +Tax 10 Point Check Out Special YOU LOVE?

Tips For Determining Pet Food Quality Because pets are such beloved members of the family, it isn't a surprise that pet parents want what is right for the health of their furry friends. In fact, nearly four out of five pet owners say they choose a pet food based on how nutritious or how healthy they think it will be for their pet, while only 10 percent say they make a selection based on how their pets may like the taste, according to the Buying & Choosing Pet Food survey recently conducted by PetMD and Pet360. While the survey found that 60 percent of respondents said they always consider the label when making a pet food purchase, 34 percent of pet parents agreed that it is "virtually impossible to determine the quality of pet food ingredients simply by reading the information on the package or ingredient label." It might surprise pet owners that what's on the pet food container doesn't necessarily tell them how nutritious the food is. "Pet food labels aren't always straightforward in terms of helping pet parents determine the quality of the ingredients and the nutrition found in a specific food," says Dr. Ellen Lowery, director of U.S. Veterinary and Professional Affairs at Hill's Pet Nutrition. "What is listed on the label is often different from what a pet parent imagines it to be, and it can be difficult to determine the true quality of the ingredients." (BPT) - 10 nob hill south | march 2015 Dr. Lowery has several tips to help pet parents find the right food for their pets. • • • • • • Discuss your pet's nutritional needs with your veterinarian. Review the brand's reputation. Many start-up brands don't have veterinary nutritionists on staff, nor do they have the facilities to test the nutritional quality of the food they make, such as through feeding trials with real pets. Established and trusted premium pet food brands like Hill's Pet Nutrition have robust qualityassurance programs in place to ensure the quality and safety of the foods your pet consumes. Pay attention to the regulatory statement. If the pet food brand bag includes a statement containing the initials AAFCO (Association of American Feed Control Officials), you know that the food has been tested against this organization's measures to contain at least the minimum nutrients required for that statement to be included on the packaging. This statement simply certifies that the product contains that nutritional element - it doesn't certify that the element is healthy for your pet, or that it will help Fido or Fluffy live a healthier life. Know who makes the food. Many pet parents assume a brand makes the food it sells but this is often not the case. Dr. Lowery recommends pet parents look for a "manufactured by" listing on the product to know if the brand made the food or is just selling it. "I think it's best to trust a company that makes its food under the watchful eyes of its own employees to make sure the food meets the company's quality standards, rather than trusting the safety procedures of an unknown manufacturer," she says. Is there a phone number to call? Brand companies should value your feedback, especially when it comes to feeding a beloved pet. Look for a toll-free consumer phone number on the packaging that you can easily call if you have questions or need additional information. Good food will keep your dog's tail happily wagging and your cat content and purring. Use these tips from Dr. Lowery to know what makes a premium, high-quality pet food, so you know that your pawed friends are getting the best food you can give them.

LI Towns Then and Now... ARE YOU CONCERNED ABOUT YOUR HEALTHCARE COSTS? Submitted by: Rose Claus WHISKEY ROAD: The legend goes that during the cutting through of this road work was too slow to please the foreman, so he bought a keg of whiskey, placed it in a wheel-barrow and kept moving it along ahead of the workmen. As the gang reached the wheel-barrow every man was allowed one drink. The road is west of Yaphank. ROGUES LANE: Near Huntington. Now an excellent thoroughfare, but in the old days lined with shacks in which lived people of undesirable reputation. FIREPLACE: Brookhaven was once called Fireplace. The story goes that years ago when shore-whalers operated across the bay, on the beach, and when their supplies ran low, they would build a large fire of brush as a sign for their families to bring renewed stores to the shore. When these were ready, a fire would be built to notify the whalers. SHELTER ROCK: Most people living on Long Island know the Shelter Rock Road leading from the Southern State Parkway to Manhasset. In Colonial days this was a cow-path, and a. huge overhanging ledge of rock provided shelter for cattle and other livestock during severe snow-storms and bitter weather, FLINT-LOCK PATH: Leaving the hollow near Hauppauge, the road winds north to the old village of Smithtown. To the right, a narrow road, plainly marked “Flint-Lock Path” leads into the hills. Here, we understand, an outcropping of flint rock formerly provided flints for Indian arrow-heads, and later for the muskets of settlers. RAM PASTURE ROAD: This name we are informed, came from the use of a broad meadow clown near the bay, where the rams were separated from the sheep. The road is still so named and is in the present Hampton Bays section. TELEGRAPH ROAD: There are still men living who can remember when the present Fifth Avenue in Bay Shore was known as Telegraph Road. The telegraph office was housed in a small wood building at the corner of Fifth Avenue and Main Street, Bay Shore. This road was surveyed and cut through by the U.S. Army as a prime necessity for communication between the North and South Shores of Long Island. RACCOON BEACH: A heavily wooded area on Fire Island now known as The Sunken Forest of Point of Woods. (In reality, this area is not below sea-level, but well above it.) The area got the name because it once swarmed with raccoons and fox; and believe it or not, mink. GRIND-STONE INLET: At approximately the time of the War of 1812, a ship heavily laden with grind-stones was wrecked at the inlet in the Moriches area. The passage was almost completely blocked and the heretofore unnamed inlet became Grind-Stone. SEAL ISLAND: In the waters between Great South Bay and Jamaica Bay, there is an island which in Colonial days was a favorite haunt of seals. The early settlers went there to shoot the animals for the oil, which resembled whale oil. Hence the name. CAPTREE ISLAND: This name is one of the mysterious items, as there have been scores of explanations advanced regarding the origin. The name appears on maps and charts as far back as 1690. Probably the most logical one is the legend that says that at one time there was a very tall, dead tree on the island. This was used by fishermen as a guide when running the inlet. To make it easier to spot, one of the early settlers climbed the tree and pulled his heavy, knitted, sailors cap over the top of the trunk. GILGO BEACH: According to an old legend, a family named Burch lived on the mainland south of Gilgo Inlet. They had a son, famous for his prowess as a fisherman, and called Gill Burch. When neighbors wanted to make sure of a good catch, they would decide to go where “Gill goes.” DO YOU HAVE THE MEDICARE PLAN THAT IS BEST FOR YOU?

Once my kids were grown, I got very involved in travel and that took a front seat in my life. My favorite trips were to Africa and Egypt… totally mind-boggling! I still book vacations for close friends and family. Keeps my mind going. Now I have great new friends at The Bristal and we dine, debate and laugh a lot at meals. I’m the youngster at the table at 86 and my friends are sharp and active like I am.
