this fall, the Congress passed massive legislation that changed the nature of
bankruptcy proceedings for both individuals and corporations. The dust is just
beginning to settle on the new bankruptcy rules, but already some opportunities

New
IRS regs make second extension requests obsolete
Until
now, individual taxpayers who were unable to meet the April 15 tax return filing
deadline could file a Form 4868 and receive an automatic four-month filing
extension until August 15. And if August 15 didn't provide enough time to get
the tax return completed, taxpayers could provide a good reason for the delay on
a Form 2688 and request another extension for two months until October 15.

warehousing: The next generation of usage One of the most interesting
developments in the computer technology arena is the concept of the data
warehouse - a group of technologies that communicate with all of the data
sources, pull all of the information from those sources together, and allow the
