Funny, that word just popped into my head. I'm sure the last time I heard it was from my mom umpteen years ago. So, not sure I even knew what it meant, I had to look it up.

The origin of the term is rather gruesome, but one of the meanings is: 'A flighty person; someone regarded as silly, irresponsible, or scatterbrained, especially someone who chatters or gossips'. Ya, I think it fits...

I love the word candyfloss, and I guess you're right Lisa, it is the British equivalent of cotton candy.

Fragments Of love
Just fragments of seeds were enough to harness the entire tree; make it an incredulously awesome entity towering handsomely towards blue sky,
Just fragments of bricks were enough to construct a cozy dwelling; impart loads of compassionate shelter and rejuvenating warmth from winds of uncouth winter,
Just fragments of raw wood were enough to mold an amicable nest; impregnably sequester the cluster of impeccable eggs; from ominous snake and devastating storm,
Just fragments of clouds were enough to shower golden droplets of mesmerizing rain; pacify the thirst of the tumultuously scorching desert with life bestowing liquid,
Just fragments of vivacious color were enough to give the morbidly corpse like wall a new look; terminate its years of pathetic isolation with resplendent streaks of paint,
Just fragments of sunshine were enough to pierce through the blanket of menacingly mourning darkness; trigger of optimistic beams of hope in hopelessly shattered lives,
Just fragments of naturally potent herb were enough to annihilate the inexplicably lingering disease; swipe it out entirely to profoundly reinvigorate the diminishing soul,
Just fragments of salt were enough to impregnate a heavenly aroma into morsels of lackadaisical food; perpetuate an insatiable hunger in the dead bowels to the most astronomical limits,
Just fragments of nectar were enough to heal the wounds of acrimonious bitterness; fortify the broken bonds of betrayed relationship,
Just fragments of silken thread were enough for the pot-bellied spider to exist in formidable security; snore to its heart's content under pearly rays of the celestial moon,
Just fragments of the lotus flower were enough to enlighten the gloomily stinking atmosphere; infiltrate a ray of profuse hope into the lives of those besieged with incomprehensible sadness,
Just fragments of daunting courage were enough to face the most deadliest of evil single handedly and without a ruffle to the bushy coat of whiskers,
Just fragments of words were enough to convey overwhelming gratitude; thank your true compatriots from the inner most compartments of your conscience,
Just fragments of truth were enough to valiantly permeate through the web of salacious lies; illuminate the entire universe with the radiance of candidly omnipotent light,
Just fragments of smile were enough to wholesomely assassinate the most minuscule trace of enmity; forge a path of irrefutable care in each individual it
encountered in its way,
Just fragments of freedom were enough to feel like a king even while entrapped in satanic chains; fomenting you to unrelentingly dream higher than the unfathomable skies,
Just fragments of peace were enough to drastically metamorphose the entire battlefield of ghastly blood shed; into one with symbiotic harmony and united strength,
Just fragments of empathy were enough to succeed in making this planet once again a veritable paradise; spread the religion of mankind to even the most obscure regions on this globe,
And just fragments of love were enough to win over the heart; survive as the most richest in this world; infact survive as the most richest molecule of Almighty lord till the time he wanted you to breathe good life.

EDIT: 04/03/2020 The name of this blog changed today. No more problems with zero and 'O' being confused!
This week I decided to change the font I use on this web site. Why? When I first showed the site to my wife and a few other people they thought the domain name was pronounced ox-craft. As in oxen.
Oops. My attempt at a cleverly geeky domain name didn't go quite like I planned.
Nope, this site is not about oxen related arts and crafts. At least not yet. Of course, who knows what the future holds?
The domain name is an incorporation of the notation for hexadecimal integers zero-x, 0x, pronounced "hex" and the word "craft" which would be pronounced "hex-craft". (More info on zero-x here.)
A big source of confusion has to do with the fonts available in WordPress. The number "0" and the letter "O" look very similar on most screens in commonly used fonts. This is one reason zero-x is used frequently in computer programming. The slashed zero is a much clearer representation of zero than the slash-less version.
So, I thought I would experiment. Maybe using a font with slashed zeros would be less confusing?
I found one of the fonts I was looking for at https://www.fontsquirrel.com and the other hosted on the creator's Github page. Make sure to check the licenses. Fonts are protected legally. Some you have to pay for and others are freely available.
When it comes to changing fonts in WordPress the first thing you have to do after finding a font you like is figure out how to access the font files.
You have two choices:
Tell your visitors web browser to import the fonts from a remote server every time they visit,
You host the font on your server with your website.
The first option is pretty easy. One of the readily available plugins will have you up and running in minutes. Accessing a remote server
though can really bog down your site. Slow loading web site are bad for reader experience.
Then there is the privacy thing. Google sees enough of our lives as it is, they don't need to see when you read this site. (No, I don't use Google Analytics anymore either.)
Good news!
Hosting fonts is pretty straight forward. I was going to write up the whole process for you. Instead go to Elegant Themes. B.J. Keeton did a really nice write up here.
The short story is you:
- Download the font files you want to use,
- Upload the font on your web server using FTP or with a file manager through cPanel.
- Copy and paste some bits of css code into your style.css and custom.php files,
- and, you are done!
After you get a font you like check out your web site with different browsers. Get some help from your friends. Different device and browser combos can display your font differently.
In my case, the fonts I decided on are Inconsolata and Inconsolata-LGC. Unfortunately, the slashed zero doesn't show in all browsers. For example, the Silk browser on my Kindle and the browser on my Android phone don't render the zero with a slash. The font though still looks appropriately geeky .

We've all seen the pins on Pinterest of dream home offices. Where every piece of paper has it's place and it all comes together in an effortless fashion. My reality is far, far from that. My home office goes from super tidy once every couple months to a mound of paper, shopping, and craft supplies. Here are some tools of the trade that I'm hoping will make my home office pretty enough for me to put in the effort to keep it that way.
1. Get organized with some magazine holders, perfect to for hiding junk or actually organizing, they create a perfect display when turned around.
2. Stationary organization - turn an old cart into a stationary station with boxes for your correspondence needs.
3. Add some inspirational art work to the walls.
4. Hide bills etc in this beautiful desktop file.
5. Clip it together. I adore these animal paper clips, I have some in hippo. Sort your memorable postcards or tickets/programs, it keep it all together with a picture holder it also makes a lovely display.
6. Add a desktop calender to remind yourself of those oh, so important dates.
7. Frame out your space with some chic book ends.
8. Be inspired to put your pencil to some paper with these adorable and personalized no. 2s.
Finish it off with some fresh flowers and stacked books on top of a tray, hung photography, personalize the space with a chalkboard wall, and if you can a large mirror.

Olivia at Second Parliament of World's Religions, 1993
Photo provided by Olivia Robertson
A Parliament of the World's Religions. Centenary 1993
By Olivia Robertson, FOI Co-Founder
Originally Published in Isian News Issue No. 71, Brigantia 1994
Many members who could not attend have written asking for a full account of the participation of the Fellowship of Isis at this Parliament, which only meets every hundred years. The previous Parliament in 1893 had only men as delegates. On this occasion the only delegate representing the Goddess Religion who spoke from the platform at the Opening Plenary was Olivia Robertson, who had been invited to represent not only the F.O.I. but other Goddess groups. This turned out to be a dramatic experience! In an article in "The Chicago Sun Times" Sept. 2nd, Greek Orthodox Church Representatives are described as "pulling out of the conference on Monday, saying they did not wish to have 'relationships with groups who profess no belief in God or a supreme purpose' - an apparent reference to neo-pagan groups included in the parliament." The rumour that it was Olivia's presence and prayer from the dais that led to this "walk-out" has turned out to be of benefit for the Goddess Religion! Olivia's "Blessing of Isis," linked with this rumour, was the only prayer given from the platform that was networked by radio throughout the world. This included the BBC World Service and the BBC4 Religious Programme. "The Chicago Tribune," 29th August: "Those who spoke from the platform ranged from Cardinal Joseph Bernadine *** to Lady Olivia Robertson of the neo-pagan Fellowship of Isis *** and when in her turn to offer a blessing, neo-pagan Robertson shook a rattle and shouted, 'Holy Goddess Isis, mother of all beings, come to thy children,' nearly every one of the dais sat silently." Usually they applauded each other. Besides Olivia, there was only one other woman, a Bahai, among the eighteen who had been invited to speak. All save Olivia prayed to the Male God. Olivia's presence was also objected to by someone during the Assembly of the World's Religious Leaders. A note declaring that a "neo-Pagan" was unwelcome was pinned behind her table!
At the opening Plenary, Professor Tadahiro and Sumiko Kurimoto were present. The F.O.I. Procession included Deena Butta, Luke Michaels, Caroline Wise, Loreon Vigne, Debe Brunn Nix, Gayle Mack, Naomi Ozianec, and Olivia. The Priestesses received a moving response from women Delegates: they were thanked, even touched, and Caroline Wise gave an Isian Blessing to the Deaconess of Chicago. Olivia, when she reached the foyer, had the peculiar experience of being escorted for her safety by a Security Guard firmly holding her elbow who kept saying: "Keep moving - keep moving!" She was hastily guided thus across the large foyer, and up a moving staircase, until she was left safely under the protection of Father Julian von Duerbeck and a circle of muscular looking Seminarists! Olivia could not find out who might possibly want to kill her; but there were plenty of religious enthusiasts present who might well have volunteered!
Her prayer which caused such commotion went as follows: "SISTRUM *** Hra ku. Holy Goddess Isis, Mother of all beings, come to our hearts! Grant us Thy children Love, Beauty and Truth. ***SISTRUM*** In the Name of Isis of Ten Thousand Names, of all Faiths, may all beings be blessed! The company here assembled: the Spirit Beings who surround us: humans, animals, birds, reptiles, insects, trees, the great rain forests, and their inhabitants: The earth and all Her sacred elements. *** Baraka."
The North American Indians present, who had performed their sacred rite for the Opening Ceremony, liked the sistrum rattle, which they told Debe Nix was the primal sound of creation. Later Debe, a Tribal Sister, and her friend Gayle Mack, attended a Pow-Wow elsewhere in Chicago, at which many tribal Chiefs and others attended. As a result, the Fellowship of Isis has been given the freedom of their Reservations. A Mexican Priest who attended told Olivia that the ancient faith of the God Quetzalcotl of Love and Compassion was once more established at the Pyramids and that Quetzalcotl Himself has returned.
In the play within a play, "The Judgment of Osiris," Caroline Wise and David Davdson took the parts of Moon and Earth. The Planets were presented by Nova, Dorianna Peterson, Francesca Dubi, Paul Hander Ramses, Jerome Ozianec, Jay Luke Michaels and Tadahiro Ohnuma. The Zodiac constellations were presented by Marianne Sansing, Corinne Wessel, Loreon Vigne, Heru Merwin, Karl Duncan, Arias, Deena Butta, P.S. Usrey, Maury White-Hereford, Tamara Siuda-Legan, Geetanjali Singh and Naomi Ozianec. Naomi channeled the Oracle of Isis. A the climax Gayle spoke the immortal words of Isis from Lucius Apuleius, win added inspired words. The costumes were very colourful, suited to character, and were made imaginatively by those taking part.
The Procession of Isis was the finale, drawn from the description of Apuleius. Debe, with her drumming, led the procession out of the Crystal Ballroom and round the huge foyer of Palmer House. The Procession filed under the huge chandeliers, and the ceiling painted robustly in nineteenth century style with naked Diamond Lils and Lily Langtries disporting themselves with sundry Gods. It was delightful to see surprised residents of a Hilton joining in by rhythmically clapping to Debe's drum! This was the first public Isian Procession for fifteen hundred years.
The Fellowship of Isis was represented by Olivia Robertson and Caroline Wise at all the inner Assembly of the World's Spiritual Leaders. The meeting-place was secret, presumably because of the presence of H.H. The Dalai Lama. Olivia was the only speaker during the three meetings who spoke for the Religion of the Goddess. There were only four Goddess representatives present.
The Lyceum of Venus of Healing was ably represented at the Parliament by the Baroness Cara Marguerite and Phoebe Wray. This Lyceum and other Goddess oriented groups gave well attended workshops and were represented in the Opening Procession and at the Assembly of Religious Leaders. These groups included Covenant of the Goddess, Earth Spirit Community, Center Women, the Earth, the Divine; Yoruba ad Circle Sanctuary.
Among F.O.I. members who attended the Parliament were Diana Paxton, the well known author and member of Covenant of the Goddess, Michael Bertiaux, the brilliant Goddess painter, and Mrs. Parrish-Hannah of Star Hawk Village Community. Yasuko Yonezu, Matumi Toda and Nweme Merjaz Ake of the Iseum of isis Orientalis, traveled from Japan.
Simon Bonewits, Arch-Druid of an Draiocht Fein, acted as Priest with Olivia as Priestess for th Consecration of Deena Butta as Hierophant of her new Lyceum, and the Ordinations of Ray Butta, Luke Jay Michaels and Carol-Ann. The ceremony was held before the lovely altar in the F.O.I. Hospitality Suite, generously provided by Gayle Mack. Ruth Dillon assisted as Priestess of Isis. Deena gave an Egyptian Temple Dance, Geetanjali Singh, a Hindu dance and Sumiko Kurimoti, a Japanese Temple dance.
A Pagan Full Moon gathering attended by about 500 people was held in the adjoining park at night. Many F.O.I. members, including Benita Chapman, participated. The gathering and F.O.I. presentations were included in an interview with Deena Butta and Olivia for local Chicago radio. It is hard to trace all the television and radio interviews given with members! Debe Nix and Olivia were interviewed for Brazilian television, whose crew were televising the play. Caroline Wise, Debe Nix, Gayle Mack and Olivia were interviewed and photographed for "Mirabella," a U.S.A. Magazine, December issue. Ruth and Richard Dillon provide Photostats of Chicago newspaper articles in the Parliament including those referring to F.O.I. and the Full Moon gathering in "The Crystal Moon," Fall '93. Olivia's play will be printed in the Winter issue.
Olivia had the pleasure of accompanying Selena Fox of Circle Sanctuary to a top secret rendezvous to attend a small gathering for Inter-Faith Dialogue. The Dalai Lama spoke; he was friendly, down-to-earth and had a sense of humour! When a Christian Monk was describing him as "the Buddha of Compassion" His Holiness was making funny faces! His personality was outstanding. It was a bit hard to meditate, surrounded by armed Security Guards! Practised meditators don't move.
Olivia offers a brief Oracle of Isis: "The Divine may come to one between two seconds! To appreciate the Divine in others takes a life-time of hard work."
End of material printed in Isian News. What follows was not recorded in Isian News, this is a transcription of an oracle through Olivia during the F.O.I. gathering in the Hospitality Suite, which is mentioned in the account above.

Article I, Section 8, Clause 1 of the United States Constitution, is known as the Taxing and Spending Clause.[1] It is the clause that gives the federal government of the United States its power of taxation. Component parts of this clause are known as the General Welfare Clause[2] and the Uniformity Clause.
|The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;
One of the most often claimed defects of the Articles of Confederation was its lack of a grant to the central government of the power to lay and collect taxes.[3][4] Under the Articles, Congress was forced to rely on requisitions upon the governments of its member states. Without the power to independently raise its own revenues, the Articles left Congress vulnerable to the discretion of the several State governments—each State made its own decision as to whether it would pay the requisition or not. Some states were not giving Congress the funds for which it asked by either paying only in part, or by altogether ignoring the request from Congress.[5] Without the revenue to enforce its laws and treaties, or pay its debts, and without an enforcement mechanism to compel the States to pay, the Confederation was practically rendered impotent and was in danger of falling apart.
The Congress recognized this limitation and proposed amendments to the Articles in an effort to supersede it.[6] However, nothing ever came of those proposals until the Philadelphia Convention.
The powers to tax and spend are concurrent powers of the federal government and the individual states.[7] These two powers have been received over time to be very broad, but have also, on occasion, been abridged by the courts.[8] They are also currently held to be independent powers, not subject to the limitations imposed by the other enumerated powers of Congress.[9]
|The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises
This power is considered by many to be essential to the administering of government. As argued under the Articles, the lack of a power to tax renders government ineffectual. Typically, the power is used to raise revenues for the support of government. But, Congress has employed the taxing power in uses other than solely for the raising of revenue, such as:
In 1922, the United States Supreme Court struck down a 1919 tax on child labor in Bailey v. Drexel Furniture Co.,[13] commonly referred to as the "Child Labor Tax Case". The Court had previously held that Congress did not have the power to directly regulate labor, and found the law at issue to be an attempt to indirectly accomplish the same end. This ruling appeared to have been reinforced in United States v. Butler,[9] in which the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that the processing taxes instituted under the 1933 Agricultural Adjustment Act were an unconstitutional attempt to regulate state activity in violation of the Tenth Amendment. However, despite its outcome, Butler affirmed that Congress does have a broad power to tax, and to expend revenues within its discretion. Butler was the last case in which the Court would find a constitutional limitation on the power of Congress to tax and spend.
With the power to tax, implicitly and necessarily, must come the power to spend the revenues raised by such taxation in order to meet the objectives and goals of the government. To what extent this power ought to be utilized by the Congress has been the source of continued dispute and debate since the inception of the federal government, as will be explained below. However, interpretations recognizing an implicit power to spend have been questioned.[14]
The Supreme Court has also found that, in addition to the power to use taxes to punish disfavored conduct, Congress can also use its power to spend to encourage favored conduct. In South Dakota v. Dole,[15] the Court upheld a federal law which withheld highway funds to states that did not raise their legal drinking age to 21.
In various places within the Constitution, and in one amendment, there are to be found several clauses related to Congress' power to tax and spend. These include both requirements for the apportionment of direct taxes and the uniformity of indirect taxes, the disallowal of taxes on exports, the General Welfare requirement, the limitation on the release of funds from the treasury except as provided by law, and the apportionment exemption of the Sixteenth Amendment.
|to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defence and general Welfare of the United States;
Of all the limitations upon the power to tax and spend, the General Welfare clause appears to have achieved notoriety as the most contentious. The dispute over the clause arises from two distinct disagreements. The first concerns whether the General Welfare Clause grants an independent spending power or is a restriction upon the taxing power. The second disagreement pertains to what exactly is meant by the phrase "general welfare."
The two primary authors of the Federalist Papers essays set forth two separate, conflicting theories:
Though the Federalist Papers were not reliably distributed outside of New York,[19] the essays eventually became the dominant reference for interpreting the meaning of the Constitution as they provided the reasoning and justification behind the Framers' intent in setting up the federal government.[19]
While Hamilton's view prevailed during the administrations of Presidents Washington and Adams, historians commonly believe that his view of the General Welfare Clause was repudiated in the election of 1800, and helped establish the primacy of the Democratic-Republican Party for the subsequent 24 years.[20] This belief is based on the motivating factor which the Kentucky and Virginia Resolutions played upon the electorate; the Kentucky Resolutions, authored by Thomas Jefferson, specifically criticized Hamilton's view. Further, Jefferson himself later described the distinction between the parties over this view was "almost the only landmark which now divides the federalists from the republicans...."[21]
Associate Justice Joseph Story relied heavily upon the Federalist Papers as a source for his Commentaries on the Constitution of the United States. In that work, Story excoriated both the Madisonian view and a previous, strongly nationalistic view of Hamilton's which was put forward at the Philadelphia Convention. Ultimately, however, Story opined the broader spending view of Hamilton, as described above, was the correct construction.
Prior to 1936, the United States Supreme Court had imposed a narrow interpretation on the Clause, as demonstrated by the holding in Bailey v. Drexel Furniture Co.,[13] in which a tax on child labor was an impermissible attempt to regulate commerce beyond that Court's equally narrow interpretation of the Commerce Clause.
This narrow view was later overturned in United States v. Butler. There, the Court agreed with Justice Story's construction, holding the power to tax and spend is an independent power; that is, the General Welfare Clause gives Congress power it might not derive anywhere else. However, the Court did limit the power to spending for matters affecting only the national welfare. The Court wrote:
|[T]he [General Welfare] clause confers a power separate and distinct from those later enumerated, is not restricted in meaning by the grant of them, and Congress consequently has a substantive power to tax and to appropriate, limited only by the requirement that it shall be exercised to provide for the general welfare of the United States. … It results that the power of Congress to authorize expenditure of public moneys for public purposes is not limited by the direct grants of legislative power found in the Constitution. … But the adoption of the broader construction leaves the power to spend subject to limitations. … [T]he powers of taxation and appropriation extend only to matters of national, as distinguished from local, welfare.
The tax imposed in Butler was nevertheless held unconstitutional as a violation of the Tenth Amendment reservation of power to the states.
Shortly after Butler, in Helvering v. Davis,[22] the Supreme Court interpreted the clause even more expansively, conferring upon Congress a plenary power to impose taxes and to spend money for the general welfare subject almost entirely to its own discretion. Even more recently, the Court has included the power to indirectly coerce the states into adopting national standards by threatening to withhold federal funds in South Dakota v. Dole.[15]
To date, the Hamiltonian view of the General Welfare Clause predominates in case law. Historically, however, the Anti-Federalists were wary of such an interpretation of this power during the ratification debates in the 1780s.[23][24] Due to the objections raised by the Anti-Federalists, Madison was prompted to author his contributions to the Federalist Papers, attempting to quell the Anti-Federalists' fears of any such abuse by the proposed national government and to counter Anti-Federalist arguments against the Constitution.[16][25]
Proponents of the Madisonian view also squarely point to the extensive absence of Hamilton[26] from the Constitutional Convention, particularly during the time frame in which this clause was crafted[27] as further evidence of his lack of constructive authority.
An additional view of the General Welfare Clause that is not as well known, but as equally authoritative as the views of both Madison and Hamilton, can be found in the pre-Revolutionary writings of John Dickinson, who was also a delegate to the Philadelphia Convention.[28] In his Letters from a Farmer in Pennsylvania, Dickinson wrote of what he understood taxing for the general welfare entailed:
|The parliament unquestionably possesses a legal authority to regulate the trade of Great Britain, and all her colonies. Such an authority is essential to the relation between a mother country and her colonies; and necessary for the common good of all. He who considers these provinces as states distinct from the British Empire, has very slender notions of justice, or of their interests. We are but parts of a whole; and therefore there must exist a power somewhere, to preside, and preserve the connection in due order. This power is lodged in the parliament; and we are as much dependent on Great Britain, as a perfectly free people can be on another.
I have looked over every statute relating to these colonies, from their first settlement to this time; and I find every one of them founded on this principle, till the Stamp Act administration. All before, are calculated to regulate trade, and preserve or promote a mutually beneficial intercourse between the several constituent parts of the empire; and though many of them imposed duties on trade, yet those duties were always imposed with design to restrain the commerce of one part, that was injurious to another, and thus to promote the general welfare. The raising of a revenue thereby was never intended.[29] - (emphasis in the original)
The idea Dickinson conveyed above, explains University of Montana Law Professor Jeffrey T. Renz, is that taxing for the general welfare is but taxation as a means of regulating commerce. Renz expands upon this point:
|If we excise "general welfare" from the Tax Clause, we are presented with the claim that Congress may not levy duties for purposes other than paying the debts and providing for the common defense. Indeed, omitting the general welfare phrase would eliminate nearly all duties for regulatory purposes. A strong argument could be made that while Congress might have the power to regulate foreign and interstate commerce, the omission of "general welfare" from the Tax Clause was intended to deny it the power to regulate commerce by means of duties.[14]
The narrow construction of the General welfare clause is unusual when compared to similar clauses in most State constitutions, and many constitutions of other countries. Virtually every state constitution has a general welfare clause which is interpreted as granting the state an independent power to regulate for the general welfare. An international example is provided by a report from the Supreme Court of Argentina:
|In Ferrocarril Central Argentino c/Provincia de Santa Fe, 569 the Argentine Court held that the General Welfare clause of the Argentine Constitution offered the federal government a general source of authority for legislation affecting the provinces. The Court recognized that the United States utilized the clause only as a source of authority for federal taxation and spending, not for general legislation, but recognized differences in the two constitutions.[30]
The final phrase of the Taxing and Spending Clause stipulates:
|but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States.
Here, the requirement is that taxes must be geographically uniform throughout the United States. This means taxes affected by this provision must function "with the same force and effect in every place where the subject of it is found."[31] However, this clause does not require revenues raised by the tax from each state be equal.
Justice Story characterized this requirement in a light more relevant to practicality and fairness:
|It was to cut off all undue preferences of one state over another in the regulation of subjects affecting their common interests. Unless duties, imposts, and excises were uniform, the grossest and most oppressive inequalities, vitally affecting the pursuits and employments of the people of different states, might exist.[32]
In other words, it was another check placed on the legislature in order to keep a larger group of states from "ganging up" to levy taxes benefiting them at the expense of the remaining, smaller group of states.
A somewhat notable exception to this limitation has been upheld by the Supreme Court. In United States v. Ptasynski,[33] the Court allowed a tax exemption which was quasi-geographical in nature. In the case, oil produced within a defined geographic region above the Arctic Circle was exempted from a federal excise tax on oil production. The basis for the holding was that Congress had determined the Alaskan oil to be of its own class and exempted it on those grounds, even though the classification of the Alaskan oil was a function of where it was geographically produced.
To understand the nuance of the Court's holding, consider this explanation: Congress decides to implement a uniform tax on all oil production. The tax so implemented distinguishes between different grades of oil (e.g., Grade A vis-à-vis Grade B) and exempts one of the grades from taxation. Even though the exempted grade might possibly be defined by where it is geographically produced, the tax itself is still geographically uniform.
Language elsewhere in the Constitution also expressly limits the taxing power. Article I, Section 9 has more than one clause so addressed. Clause 4 states:
|No Capitation, or other direct, Tax shall be laid, unless in Proportion to the Census or Enumeration herein before directed to be taken.
Generally, a direct tax is subject to the apportionment rule, meaning taxes must be imposed among the states in proportion to each state's population in respect to that state's share of the whole national population. For example: As of the 2000 Census, nearly 34 million people populated California (CA). At the same time, the national population was 281.5 million people. This gave CA a 12 percent share of the national population, roughly. Were Congress to impose a direct tax in order to raise $1 trillion before the next census, the taxpayers of CA would be required to fund 12 percent of the total amount: $120 billion dollars.
Before 1895, direct taxes were understood to be limited to "capitation or poll taxes" (Hylton v. United States)[34] and "taxes on lands and buildings, and general assessments, whether on the whole property of individuals or on their whole real or personal estate" (Springer v. United States).[35] The decision in Springer went further in declaring all income taxes were indirect taxes—or more specifically, "within the category of an excise or duty."[35] However, in 1895 income taxes derived from property such as interest, dividends, and rent (imposed under an 1894 Act) were treated as direct taxes by the Supreme Court in Pollock v. Farmers' Loan & Trust Co. and were ruled to be subject to the requirement of apportionment.[36] As the income taxes imposed under the 1894 Act were not apportioned in such a manner, they were held unconstitutional. It was not the income tax per se, but the lack of a provision for its apportionment as a direct tax which made the tax unconstitutional.
The resulting case law prohibiting unapportioned taxes on incomes derived from property was later eliminated by the ratification of the Sixteenth Amendment in 1913. The text of the amendment was clear in its aim:
|The Congress shall have power to lay and collect taxes on income, from whatever source derived, without apportionment among the several States, and without regard to any census or enumeration.
Shortly after, in 1916, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in Brushaber v. Union Pacific Railroad that under the Sixteenth Amendment income taxes were constitutional even though unapportioned, just as the amendment had provided.[37] In subsequent cases, the courts have interpreted the Sixteenth Amendment and the Brushaber decision as standing for the rule that the amendment allows income taxes on "wages, salaries, commissions, etc. without apportionment."[38]
Article I, Section 9, Clause 5 provides a further limitation:
|No Tax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State.
This provision was an important protection for the southern states secured during the Constitutional Convention.[39] With the grant of absolute power over foreign commerce given to the federal government, the states whose economies relied chiefly on exports realized that any tax laid by the new central government upon a single item of export would apply very unevenly amongst all the states and favor states which did not export that good.[40]
In 1996, the Supreme Court held this provision prohibits Congress to tax any goods in export transit, and further forbids taxes on any services related to such export transit.[41]
Shortly after, the Supreme Court reaffirmed this provision in United States v. United States Shoe Corp. in 1998.[42] As part of the Water Resources Development Act of 1986, a harbor maintenance tax (26 U.S.C. § 4461) was imposed at the ad valorem (percentile) rate of 0.125% the value of the cargo instead of at a rate dependent entirely upon the cost of the service provided by the port. The Court unanimously affirmed the ruling of the lower Federal Circuit Court that a "user fee" imposed in such a manner is, in fact, a tax on exports and unconstitutional.
However, Congress may tax goods not in transit even though they are intended for export so long as the tax is not imposed solely for the reason that the good will be exported.[43] For example, a tax imposed on all medical supplies would be constitutional even though there is a likelihood a portion of those supplies will be exported.
The constraints placed upon the Taxing and Spending Clause and the subsequent powers derived therefrom do not stop at the Taxing Power.
While such holdings are rare and unlikely under contemporary jurisprudence, the Supreme Court has shown in the past its possible willingness to intervene on Congressional spending where its effects amount to a disguised regulation on private activity. The case illustrative of this is United States v. Butler.[9]
In this case, the Court held that Congress had imposed a coercive federal regulatory scheme on farm production under the Agricultural Adjustment Act of 1933 (AAA). By entering into contracts with farmers who reduced their output of selected crops, Congress had placed non-participatory farmers at a distinct disadvantage to farmers who cooperated. As such, the program was not truly voluntary as it left the farmers no real choice; the options for the farmers were either cooperation or financial ruin. Under those circumstances, the regulatory scheme essentially required submission of farmers to a regulatory scheme Congress had no power to impose on its own.
The holding of the Butler case stemmed from the legal theory of that era, which held that regulation of production fell outside of Congress' commerce power. While the Court today is much more likely to defer to Congressional spending via the Commerce Clause, there are still circumstances where such spending may not be justifiable or validated by that power.[44]
While clearing the hurdle of regulatory spending may be easier today than in the past, another significant hurdle exists in the unconstitutional conditions doctrine. Under this principle, the government may not use its spending power to purchase the constitutional rights of the spending's beneficiaries. Furthermore, entitlements may not be denied on grounds that violate a constitutionally protected right.[45]
The Court has typically held this spending limitation as only applying to First Amendment rights where the choice imposed is unreasonable or vague, or where the beneficiary essentially is put into a position where acceptance of the conditions becomes obligated.[46][47]
In 1988, the holding in South Dakota v. Dole[15] reaffirmed the authority of Congress to attach conditional strings to the receipt of federal funds by state or municipal governments. In addition to the requirement that spending be for the general welfare, however, the Court devised more scrutinous criteria for determining the constitutionality of the conditions imposed:
At dispute in Dole was a condition placed on the receipt of federal highway funds: elevation of the drinking age. Any state in which persons less than 21 years of age could lawfully possess and consume alcohol would consequently lose five percent of the federal highway funds allocated by Congress. The Court found the second and last conditions met since the requirement for the funds was germane to highway safety. Additionally, the loss of only five percent of the amount was not found so substantial as to be coercive in the eyes of the Court (as opposed to losing half or all of the funds might be).
Article I, Section 9, Clause 7 imposes accountability on Congressional spending:
|No money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time.
The first half of this clause indicates that Congress must have appropriated by law the funds to be spent before the funds can be released from the Treasury. It serves as a powerful check of the legislature on the executive branch, as it further secures Congress's power of the purse. This provision, when also combined with the bicameral nature of Congress and the quorum requirements of both the Senate and the House of Representatives, serves as a constitutional check and balance on the legislature itself, prohibiting any spending that does not have broad support.

A fire engine pictured in Blackheath that appeared unable to get through modal filters was assessing a new bollard rather than on its way to an incident.
Last month, as part of its Covid-19 emergency transport measures, Lewisham Council put planters at the end of rat-run South Row where it meets Prince of Wales Road in a bid to encourage walking and cycling.
The initial plans were scrapped after a surge of complaints about safety, traffic being diverted onto other roads, and drivers ignoring the barriers and driving around them.
Instead a collapsible bollard was placed in the road to stop drivers coming through – though some are still being spotted driving onto the green.
The scheme has received a lot of positive feedback, particularly around safety and air pollution reduction.
Great to meet some families at South Row earlier, talking about safe spaces for kids, who seemed very interested in the bollard, even more so than our cargo bike ridden by our coordinator @saoirse60 , who also did some basic roadside repairs for the huge number of passing 🚲. pic.twitter.com/cU68t2YzrF— Lewisham Cyclists (@lewicyclists) June 28, 2020
However, among the concerns raised by people who object to the changes is the fear emergency services will not be able to get through at speed.
On Saturday a photo of a fire engine and crew seemingly unable to get past the bollard emerged online, but London Fire Brigade said the crew was just assessing it.
A spokesperson said: "I have spoken to the crews pictured and they confirmed that they were not on their way to an incident and were not blocked by the modal filters on the road.
"They were in the area just taking a look as road restrictions had been put in place."
A spokesperson for the council said the same.
"Details of all new bollards were shared with the emergency services prior to implementation.
"Following liaison with the Fire Brigade we understand that their crews were asked to undertake 'visual audits' of the installations once implemented, so they could factor this in to their response planning," she said.
The bollard in question has been temporarily removed since for a separate issue, which will be made public soon.

Albums: Last Stop Heavenly Heights, Olana, Into The Land Of Promise, Happy Birthday Dear Customer, Pacifico, Headland (2 disc Best Of)
Feeling a bit camera shy
Since 1995 Karma County have been making some of the best and most original music in Australia. Arriving on stage in those early days around Sydney with just a snare drum, acoustic guitar and double bass, they foreshadowed the acoustic roots movement that has become an essential element of contemporary music. Since those small beginnings they have waltzed their way into the hearts and minds of music fans, and critics, all over the world with five outstanding and timeless albums.
Their new retrospective collection Headland is a must have release with 36 tracks across 2 discs containing songs from all 5 albums, including 2000 ARIA winner Into The Land Of Promise PLUS previously unreleased tracks and live performances - remixed, revisited, remastered. Stand outs are the two new tracks; the new original The Feeling and a breezey cover of Yazoo's Only You. The boys toured during late October 2008 to good sized houses and enthralled all who attended.
What's next for KC? Stu the drummer was heard on ABC gold coast to have said "All we need is encouragement".

Since we're heading into summer, now would be an ideal time to have a nosy at some cozy. Bedding plants are brightly bordering, lawns are growing like over watered cress. Summer houses and pavilions are being swept clean and de-spidered and the chair cushions might just about be safe to come out from under the tarp. There will be tea, there will be Pimms with cooling cucumber, mint, apple and orange. Lucky for us, we know a man who is superb at making them.
Well, we can but hope. If the rain stops. Brits know summer houses – or in some cases, summer pods. A lovely selection to inspire you is on the menu, so butter a scone and pull up a lawn chair.
Vintage trailer conversion with corrugated tin roof. Any small garden could accommodate this sweet little retreat.
This makes us happy! Bunting and vintage wicker chairs. A shady place to chill out while the bees do their thing.
Neo-Classical pavilion with Ionic columns. Looks so comfortable! Source
Not sure how much you could get up to in this antique pavilion, but it certainly is charmingly decorative.
Boho style pavilion. Here you will write poetry and sketch each other. Mandatory.
A summer…pod, with sun refracting glass. How cool is this?
Shabby Chic summer house with leaded light and faux Corinthian column. We'd put money on there being croquet mallets stored inside. Gorgeous!

Another memorial day happened on Day 4 of Ottawa Bluesfest 2011.
Besides the weather and missing out the Black Keys.
There were other great acts that I saw on July 8th were:
I finally saw parts of Eamon McGrath from Toronto.
It was very gruffy rock sounding live.
Wow Cage The Elephant sure lively the MBNA stage.
It was totally loud and crazy!
There was a point when the lead singer jumped into the audience.
Blue King Brown is a band from Melbourne Australia.
Their music had that funky urban roots sound.
A really lively band that played at the Subway stage.
Rise Against was totally insane at the Claridge stage.
That is all I can say about it.
Hey Rosetta! who are short listed for the 2011 Polaris Music Prize played the Hard Rock stage.
Before the storm, they put on a great set.
There were people excited and showing their support for them.
Missed out after the storm that Tim went into the audience and did a acoustic singalong.
As for the Black Keys, I was going to shoot before the storm happened.
Whatever the case, the weather didn't help much since it started to rain with strong winds.
Noticed the MBNA stage was being tear apart by the strong winds.
It looked kind of scary.
I left like at 10pm because I had a long day with being wet and cold.
Here are the rest of the photos

Gato Libre: DuDu
Trumpeter Natsuki Tamura's quartet Gato Libre has always recorded stimulating, progressive music heavily laced with a Spanish lyricism. DuDu is no exception. Mouse" is the prime example of this. On it the musicians push far the harmonic boundaries of their respective instruments creating delightfully jarring cacophony intertwined with intensely melodic explorations.Despite the personnel change after bassist Norikatsu Koreyasu's untimely death, the group remains remarkable cohesive. The new recruit, trombonist Yasuko Kaneko brings a warm fluidity to the bottom ...read more
Gato Libre: DuDu
The fifth album by Gato Libre, trumpeter Natsuki Tamura's acoustic quartet, is the first since the sudden death of bassist Norikatsu Koreyasu in 2011. Having thought long and hard about whether to continue, Tamura recruited trombonist Yasuko Kaneko as a replacement. While the European folk music inspiration of previous outings like Shiro (Libra Records, 2009) and Forever (Libra Records, 2012) remains intact, the change has engendered more the feel of a chamber outfit, albeit one at times crossed with a ...read more
Gato Libre: DuDu
There are a lot of high energy, wild and out there sounds screaming around in Natsuki Tamura's discography--the explosively electric Hada Hada (Libra Records, 2002), the sizzling Exit (Libra Records, 2004), and any number of unfettered collaborations with his wife, pianist Satoko Fujii. But his Gato Libre discs are one of the Japanese trumpeter's more laid-back methods of expression. An acoustic quartet that explores European folk themes in a tranquil and occasionally off-center way, the five previous sets by the ...read more
Natsuki Tamura: Dragon Nat
The instrumentalist begins his career as, essentially, a solo artist. Whether is practicing long tones or scales or drum rudiments, nearly everyone who plays a musical instrument starts out unaccompanied. On the road to mastery, most musicians spend thousands of hours playing alone. In jazz, solo recordings by musicians other than pianists or guitarists are a relatively recent phenomenon, and the prospect of listening to a horn or drum soloist playing unaccompanied for an hour or more may seem daunting, ...read more
Natsuki Tamura and Satoko Fujii: Muku
It's surprising that trumpeter Natsuki Tamura and pianist Satoko Fujii--partners in music and life--have only recorded five duet CDs during the course of their incredibly prolific and artistically fecund collaboration. As Fujii wryly explains in her liner notes, each of their duet recordings is different--some are entirely freely improvised, others consist solely of compositions written by either Fujii or Tamura. The location--an important metric in the Fujii/Tamura universe--of each duet recording has also been different. Recorded in New York City, ...read more
Natsuki Tamura / Satoko Fujii: Muku
Trumpeter Natsuki Tamura and pianist Satoko Fujii--partners in marriage and music--have an extensive discography together, spanning a broad array of ensemble configurations, from Fujii's calamitous big bands to Tamura's European folk song-flavored Gato Libre discs, and from Fujii's propulsive, window-rattling art rock quartets to Tamura's blistering electric quartet of Hada Hada (Libra Records, 2003). But it is in their simple duo of piano and trumpet, where they have recently created some of their most compelling music.Muko is the ...read more
First Meeting: Cut the Rope
Trumpeter Natsuki Tamura creates a vast expanse of sound on Cut the Rope, the first album recorded with his band First Meeting. Nothing is predictable on this wholly improvised album that ranges from aspects of a vision of being marooned on a desolate soundscape to the musicians ultimately finding their way into a melodic river of sound, after at first coming perilously close to losing all sense of direction. But Tamura is an expert guide: he wields his horn like ...read more

Kafeine finds a new exploit kit
French researcher Kafeine has found and analysed a new exploit kit (which he calls Astrum) that he believes is currently only in private use. It focuses on Internet Explorer, filtering out other browsers, Tor, specified IPs and .RU in the process. The exploits it delivers are Flash, PDF, Silverlight and IE. Java is "It's a trade of a now small percentage of infection for more stealth."
Malware don't need Coffee:
64-bit Version of MIRAS Used in Targeted Attack
Trend Micro has been looking at MIRAS which was used for the data exfiltration stage of a targeted attack against a European IT company. "Since attacks such as these are commonly designed to leave little to no tracks at all, it is important for IT administrators to know where possible indicators of a compromise can be found, or the "anomalies." Examples of such anomalies are the presence of unknown large files, which are often indicators of a data breach and may need to be checked as it may contain data stolen from within the network. Attackers often store these files in their targets' systems prior to the data exfiltration stage. One file indicator for MIRAS in the system is the presence of the file%System%/wbem/raswmi.dll."
Trend Micro:
Freenode IRC compromised
Freenode issued the following statement on Saturday: "We have since identified that this was indicative of the server being compromised by an unknown third party. We immediately started an investigation to map the extent of the problem and located similar issues with several other machines and have taken those offline. For now, since network traffic may have been sniffed, we recommend that everyone change their NickServ password as a precaution."

Law professors urge Brown to sign Drone Act
Last week, 41 law professors from across the US signed a letter urging Jerry. Brown (California) to sign the Bipartisan Drone Privacy Protection Act. "AB 1327 is a sensible solution that will allow us to provide a safer community for all without sacrificing the privacy of innocent Californians. California should join Florida, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Montana, Oregon, Tennessee, Utah, and Wisconsin in passing legislation to require a warrant for law enforcement use except under specific circumstances."
Letter to Jerry Brown:
Man's porn conviction overturned due to sweeping NCIS search
A Washington State man's conviction for possessing and distributing child pornography was overturned last week on appeal. The man had been discovered after an NCIS agent hacked civilian computers looking for evidence. "The ruling said the search was so sweeping, it shows 'a profound lack of regard for the important limitations on the role of the military in our civilian society.' It noted 'abundant evidence' that the Navy frequently hacks into civilian computer to search for evidence of child pornography and turn it over to the police if the computer owner has no relation to the military."
Stars and Stripes:
Treasure Map: The NSA Breach of Telekom and Other German Firms
Spiegel has published Snowden documents showing the NSA/GCHQ tapped into Deutsche Telekom and Netcologne as part of the 'Treasure Map' project to map the entire Internet. Deutsche Telekom has cables that run via Britain; Netcologne however is a German local provider. "Because Netcologne is a regional provider, it would seem highly likely that the NSA or one of its Treasure Map partners accessed the network from within Germany. That would be a clear violation of German law and potentially another NSA-related case for German public prosecutors. Thus far, the only NSA-related casecurrently being investigated is the monitoring of Chancellor Angela Merkel's mobile phone."
Spiegel Online:
WikiLeaks provides more information on FinFisher
"WikiLeaks conservatively estimates FinFisher's revenue from these sales to amount to around €50,000,000. Within the full list of customers, it's worth noticing that among the largest is Mongolia, which has been recently selected as new Chair of the Freedom Online Coalition…
Some customers were identified through the analysis of support requests and attached documents they provided to FinFisher support. This included Slovakia, Mongolia, Qatar State Security, South Africa, Bahrain, Pakistan, Estonia, Vietnam, Australia NSW Police, Belgium, Nigeria, Netherlands KLPD, PCS Security in Singapore, Bangladesh, Secret Services of Hungary, Italy and Bosnia & Herzegovina Intelligence."
SpyFiles 4:
New sparks fly between CIA, Senate Intelligence Committee
McClatchy reports that tension between the CIA and the Senate Intelligence Committee remains high, with the CIA refusing to say who authorized spying on the committee. "After the meeting, several senators were so incensed at Brennan that they confirmed the row and all but accused the nation's top spy of defying Congress. 'I'm concerned there's disrespect towards the Congress,' Sen. Carl Levin, D-Mich., who also serves as chairman of the Senate Armed Services Committee, told McClatchy. 'I think it's arrogant, I think it's unacceptable.'"
Holder Says Private Suit Risks State Secrets
Attorney General Eric Holder has invoked 'state-secrets privilege' to demand a private law suit be dropped. "A Greek shipping magnate, accuses United Against Nuclear Iran of falsely accusing him of doing business with Iran. The businessman, Victor Restis, subpoenaed the group for its donor list and all information it had collected about him. That was when the Justice Department stepped in." It is unclear what state secrets a non-government private pressure group could be holding, when it should be none.
The New York Times:
A messy New Zealand election just got messier
Edward Snowden writes today: "Let me be clear: any statement that mass surveillance is not performed in New Zealand, or that the internet communications are not comprehensively intercepted and monitored, or that this is not intentionally and actively abetted by the GCSB, is categorically false. If you live in New Zealand, you are being watched. At the NSA I routinely came across the communications of New Zealanders in my work with a mass surveillance tool we share with GCSB, called 'XKEYSCORE'." In other words, prime minister John Key has been lying to the people.
Snowden in The Intercept:
Inspiration Mining Corporation (T.ISM) pump-and-dump spam
Dynamoo warns about a current pump and dump scam. The relevant email reads: "I have a new stock recommendation for you. The company is called inspirationmining and it's trading in canada under the symbol ISM. Currently it's priced at right under 10 cents but by next week it should hit 30 or 40 even. I know this because my wife's uncle is the geologist at the company and they literaly just struck gold. Move quickly on this." Dynamoo comments: "The pump and dump spam does seem to have raised the stock price from about 7.5 cents to 10.5 cents [source] but the chances are that the stock is worth much closer to zero. Avoid."

I'm sorry for the lack of update. But as usual, this WordPress does not truly fulfill the reason and purpose for it's creation in the first place.
So there are a few things that I'll attempt to do due to what God has led me through
1) as always, I have the greatest inclination to draw short Christian comics people can share online
2) I've somehow found myself stuck in a relationship and for those who have read my posts on singleness, I have plans for a series of posts from the other side
And before I leave, here are some questions I've been pondering about
1) what exactly is sacrifice to me and how do I view deprivation?
2) What do I truly understand about the cost of discipleship and is it really up to me to create boundaries of that cost sub-consciously?
Looking forward to the new direction this blog would be heading to in the future!

Venue: Dorcan Church Hall, St Paul's Drive, Swindon SN3 5BY
Wednesday 6th November 2019 at 7.30 pm: Philip Mugridge ARPS "Gloucestershire Wildlife" at Dorcan Church Hall, St Paul's Drive, Swindon SN3 5BY
John Pollard Memorial Lecture
Gloucestershire wildlife for a Wiltshire group? A deliberate choice for our meeting in Swindon, with many of Gloucestershire's best wildlife sites on its doorstep. Philip is a superb photographer and his talk will cover some of his favourite wildlife locations in the county, especially in the Forest of Dean where he lives. Whilst primarily concentrating on birds and mammals, Philip will also cover some great areas to see a few of our more unusual butterflies, some of which are very near to the Wiltshire border.
Admission £2.00 to include refreshments
