After 2 refis, I was basically able to lower my interest rate 1.125% and get paid $2.2k while doing it. Rates feel even further, and I was able to do a refi again in July to an even lower rates and again lender credits were large enough to offset all cost and end up getting paid $100. In the first one in May I received such a large lender credit that all costs were offset and I was PAID $2.1k to refi. The gravy train is probably over, rates have gone up quite a bit since December 2020. If you think refinancing twice "begs the question," just wait until you see how many refi's some folks did last year (6+ in some cases?). I'd recommend checking out the discussion on the Refinance Mega Thread. Sometimes you can actually make money on some of those deals, although IMO I think that gravy train is probably over. take the most lender credit, which may not get the absolute lowest rate but is still lower than your current rate), then you should probably do it. The general theme is that if you can reduce your current rate by executing a no-cost refi (i.e. There are several providers now who offer enough lender credits to offset all costs. Just curious since it has been twenty years since I last had a mortgage, are there costs involved in refinancing or are they so low the benefits outweigh the costs? I could see that refinancing once in a year but twice begs the question.ĭepends on your current rate and situation. Not 100% sure what is transmitted by TT but my guess as well is that individual 1098s are not. IRS do get the individual 1098 from the Payer (lender) as well as W-2/1099/5498 etc. I assume, if all the 1098 numbers add up properly and match the tally that the IRS has it probably does not raise any red flags. But I assume that the mortgage services do send the IRS the 1098 forms, so the IRS has that information. I don't think TT transmits the worksheets, where TT shows all the numbers you input. In that case, following TT’s new guidance wouldn’t create an issue, because the IRS would only get the total number from your return and would have to add the multiple 1098’s it receives anyway. If you need assistance with updating, please refer to the following support article.ĭoes anyone know if you have multiple 1098’s, on the return TT transmits to the IRS, are there any schedules/ worksheets that separately list the individual 1098’s and related information? If not, then presumably on your tax return, the IRS only sees the consolidated numbers (regardless of how TT has you enter them). If you are using TurboTax Desktop, make sure you download and install the latest update. If you are using TurboTax Online, updates are applied automatically. TurboTax update has been released resolving this issue. How do I handle multiple 1098 mortgage forms? Please review your home mortgage information in the program. We also have a new support article on our support site with more information on how your home mortgage information should be entered. We have added some in-program help to assist with the entering of your home mortgage information. You are receiving this email because you signed up on a TurboTax support article regarding “Why is my home mortgage interest being limited?” Will try the new updates this weekend and see if it is resolved. Anyone encounter this before or know how to solve it? But it keeps forcing me to the standard deduction because it thinks I have > $1M in mortgages. I've deleted and re-entered the 1098's multiple times, trying different options along the way to get things to work. The software does not let me edit the worksheet so that the box is checked no. I've tried going to the “Tax & Int Wks”, scrolling down to “Mortgage Interest Limited Smart Worksheet” and the “Does your mortgage interest need to be limited:” is set to yes. If I delete the separate 1098 entries in TT and just enter the sum of both as a single entry in TT, the system correctly lets me deduct all the interest. It appears the software is adding the mortgage balances from the 1098's together (making it look like I have more than $1M of outstanding mortgages), and therefore limiting the amount of interest I can deduct. It says it's limited and I can only take the standard deduction. When I enter each 1098 individually, the software does not deduct my interest. I refinanced my mortgage a couple times in 2020 so I have more than one 1098. I'm using the desktop version of Turbo Tax Deluxe 2020. Hi everyone, I'm hoping someone else has encountered this problem and can help me figure out to resolve it.

In looking it up, the director of this movie-Hal Sutherland-used to work for Disney and animated on “Sleeping Beauty”, so I may be right in my thinking here. Also, Oz looks like the background painter(s) was a fan of Eyvind Earle, the guy who painted all the backgrounds in Disney’s “Sleeping Beauty”. Scarecrow’s animation looks like they were trying to emulate Chuck Jones and the elephants look like they were trying to emulate Woolie Reitherman’s elephants (in “The Jungle Book” and “Goliath II”). And the Saw-Horse is changed to a carousel horse. This movie made some interesting changes to the story in the books, namely the all-girl army that takes over the Emerald City is changed to an all-elephant army. But why not just skip the second book and adapt the third book alone? Who knows? I’m not sure why both Filmation and Disney did this, other than the fact that the character Dorothy isn’t in the second Oz book. The movie, like “Return to Oz”, is a combo adaptation of the second and third Oz books (“The Marvelous Land of Oz” and “Ozma of Oz”). It’s hard to find for less than $30, but I did manage to find it on eBay for $9.99. The movie was released on DVD in 2006 but has since been bought by Dreamworks, who too k it off the shelves. I liked this movie as a sequel to the 1939 MGM film “The Wizard of Oz” a lot more than Disney’s shitty “Return to Oz”, and indeed it is considered the official sequel, although I’m not sure who deemed it that.Īnywho, info about it can be found here. Tomato leaf, is a severely underrated note, and somehow Adidas Moves is one of the few colognes to use it. Sort of aquatic, but that is due to the crisp fruity notes involved. The juice inside is blue and it does have a ‘blue-ish’ vibe, to the aroma. I think I wore this for most of 9th and 10th grade, so it brings back some memories. Turns out it features tomato leaf, pepper, pineapple, and apple among others. It’s a very fresh and clean scent but I was never really sure what the specific notes were.

What’s funny is, The One Sport by D&G, smells very similar to Deep Energy. Updating here in 2020, this has been discontinued, and I haven’t seen any cheap bottles floating around.

If you want a cheapie, along the lines of the aforementioned designer scents, Victory League is a very solid pickup.Īdidas Deep Energy by Adidas For Men. Vanilla has much more strength in this one, than in the other Adidas scent. Somewhat related to Adidas Dare, though, Victory League isn’t as much about the fruit. It’s another good casual option from Adidas. So, an apple/pear blend with vanilla and a cinnamon kick. It reminds me a bit of Ultra Male and Boss Bottled and Tommy Hilfiger, like a blend of those three. Plus, a undercurrent of rum, vanilla, and leather? I’m sold.Īdidas Victory League Eau De Toilette Spray for Men, 3.4 Ounce – Sweet and slightly spicy. However, the apple and citrus pairing is great. Like most inexpensive fragrances, Adidas Dare isn’t all that complicated, but this never smells ‘cheap’. Then, a smooth rum note kicks in and is paired with leather to create something that is unique while still being inexpensive. What are the Best Adidas Colognes for Men?

Meditation is not evasion it is a serene encounter with reality. The feeling that any task is a nuisance will soon disappear if it is done in mindfulness.

While sommeliers are more common today, there are still very few people that are considered master sommeliers. In modern times, sommeliers have become much more common. In the 1700s, when more restaurants began to open, sommeliers were employed and began sharing their knowledge of wine with restaurant patrons. This was done to ensure that royalty was not being served poisoned wine. They were responsible for preparing service for nobles and royals and were also tasked with tasting the wines prior to serving. While sommeliers existed prior to the French Revolution, it was not until this time that their role became more pronounced. The history of sommeliers dates back to the 1300s. To sort through it all, we spoke with Cedric Nicaise, Wine Director at Eleven Madison Park. What is the actual difference between older and newer wines? If you like a wine from one region, will others from the same region taste the same? Does the alcohol percentage tell you anything besides how drunk you’ll get? You might not be able to judge a book by its cover, but you can learn a lot about a wine by deciphering its label. YouTube Special FeatureĮven if you know some of the basics, picking the right bottle at the store is a daunting task. In restaurants in which sommeliers are employed, they are considered just as important as the executive chef preparing the meals. Sommeliers are often found working in high-end restaurants where they specialize in various aspect of wine service, including recommending the perfect food and wine pairings. It can take many years of training to become a master sommelier. A sommelier, also known as a wine steward, is a person that has undergone training in order to become extremely knowledgeable about wine. While some wine consumers may consider themselves experts, a true wine expert is called a sommelier. Seldom would someone (proudly) say that a woman earns the majority, or at least half of, the income for a family. Women were not seen as equal to men in the society of the New Testament. After all, she sells purple dye, her whole family gets baptized, and she provides a means for Paul to have a temporary home. Why Does the Bible Mention Lydia Specifically? The fact that Lydia appears in several instances in one chapter shows she had a strong impact on Paul’s ministry, as catalogued by the historian Luke. No doubt, that man was well-known in his region for his wealth. We have to keep in mind that the fact the Bible named her shows a great deal of importance.Īfter all, the rich young ruler in Luke 18 doesn’t receive an explicit name reference. This does not mean she played a minor role in Paul’s ministry or in the New Testament. Sadly, apart from Acts 16, we don’t see any other explicit instances where Lydia appears. Photo credit: ©Getty Images/dmbaker Where Does Lydia Appear in the Bible? Lydia later puts this wealth to good use by showing Paul and his companions hospitality and putting them up in her home. Only royals and the rich could afford purple outfits. First, Lydia most likely accrued a great deal of wealth from selling purple cloth. Most likely from the details given about Lydia, we can come to a few conclusions. Lydia no longer lives in Thyatira when Paul meets her, but rather, in the city of Philippi, a city in Macedonia. She comes from Thyatira, a wealthy town known for its trade guilds and purple dye. Who Was Lydia?Īs mentioned before Lydia sells purple cloth. In this article, we’ll dive into who she is, why she receives a special mention in the New Testament, and what we can learn from her example. Lydia appears in several verses in Acts 16. These may appear like minor details, but we should note that even important people in the early Church maybe got a verse or two of dedication from Paul. Second, after she and her entire family accepts Jesus Christ and are baptized, they invite Paul and Silas (a ministry companion of Paul’s) into their home. We’ll dive more into the importance of this later, but readers should take note that not every regular Gentile or Jew got a chance to wear this special color two millennia ago. Although Lydia only appears in one chapter in Acts 16, we do learn a few really interesting details about her.įirst, she sells purple cloth. The New Testament mentions several women who happen to appear in Paul’s ministry, Lydia being one of them. It will keep things hot internally until it decides to stop doing so. The K-Compact doesn’t have an auto-off manual selection. You can price out the K-Compact through Walmart’s website right here. If you have an aversion to Walmart then take that into consideration but this is a very entry level machine so the price is about as low as Keurig’s are ever sold for. The K-Compact is also a unit that can only be purchased at Walmart and by the way. I know, it sounds like a nit-picky inconvenience but I swear it is annoyingly noticeable after you use this unit for a few weeks. To refill it you have to slide the whole machine away from the wall on your counter to remove and replace it. This is to keep the width of the K-Compact down but the width is only 1.5-inches less, hardly noticeable in my kitchen while the reservoir has to be refilled much more often… and not only does it have to be refilled more often but it’s a lot more annoying to do so with it placed in the rear. What does matter a lot to me as a user of these devices though is the location of the reservoir.īoth the K-Select and the K-Classic place the removable tank to the left of the unit whereas the K-Compact puts it to the rear. If reservoir size is a big deal to you then the K-Select is only slightly bigger and not worth the extra price for only four extra ounces of reservoir size. The sticker says 52-ounces but it is also rounding down. Lastly the K-Select has a reservoir that is only slightly larger than the K-Classic. The K-Classic has a reservoir that is sized at 48-ounces according to the box but in the real world is a bit bigger than that also. The box says it’s 36-ounces but from my testing it’s actually a bit bigger than that. The K-Compact has the smallest removable reservoir. The most basic model of the three is the K-Compact, which despite it’s name is far more similar to the K-Classic than it is to the K-Mini. Let’s look at what really matters what sets them apart. Of the three I’ve only added the K-Select to my list of best Keurig coffee makers, however it was selected for it’s value-it is great for the amount of money it costs. They are cut from the same cloth so-to-speak and each unit adds a couple extra features to the last one along with a reasonable increase in price. They are all designed for the basic shopper looking for value in a “regular” k-cup machine.īasically these three machines are all very similar.They all look similar with only slight differences in style and form.They all have internal reservoirs that keep water hot for a while between brews.They all have external reservoirs of different sizes.Firstly, What’s The Same Between Them All? Let’s start with a summary of the three machines and then we’ll get into the extreme details and history of their previous versions within the older K-series of brewers. I will compare them against each other for similarities and differences while also comparing them a little bit to their closest and best alternatives. Today we are going to be looking closely at these three commonly purchased Keurig brewers. The K-Compact, K-Classic, and K-Select however are all models that can still be found for sale at various price points from a wide variety of sellers. Keurig has been around for a while and they have a deep inventory of units that are not sold or marketed any longer. |
