One key issue was the extent to which structural discrimination existed within our criminal justice system. But how do you measure that? One key measure is to compare our human rights reputation in the area of criminal justice, with that of other nations. The most obvious point of reference then, is the United Nations Universal Periodic Review (UPR) of the NZ government's human rights performance which is conducted every four and a half years.
The UPR is a mechanism established in 2006 whereby the UN
Human Rights Council reviews whether or not UN member states are fulfilling their human rights obligations and commitments. Each state is reviewed once every four and a half years. It is a complex process and for those that are interested click here for a full explanation.
"The Government accepts the vast majority of the recommendations, many of which encourage our nation to continue our current programmes that make New Zealand a leader in the field of human rights"
Recommendations 81, 82, 83, 84, 133:New Zealand will continue a focus on Māori and Pasifika groups in the context of work to reduce crime, including their over-representation in the justice system. New Zealand is committed to increasing Māori participation in the police force. New Zealand will continue a focus on Māori and Pasifika groups in the context of work to reduce crime, including their over-representation in the justice system. New Zealand is committed to increasing Māori participation in the police force.
When we examined Serious Class A Drug Offences (Class A) and Serious Violent and Sexual Offences (SVSO) we expected that the gap between bail decisions for Māori and non-Māori would narrow. This did occur for Serious Class A Drug Offences, where Māori were only 1.31 times more likely than Europeans to be remanded in custody at some time.(1) However, Māori who appeared before the Court on serious violence and sexual offences were almost twice more likely to be remanded in custody than Europeans. Australia, unlike New Zealand, is doing solid research in this area, where the rate of bail refusal is nearly three times higher than the proportion of non-Indigenous people. Australian research shows that Aboriginal defendants are likely to have more restrictive (and often unrealistic) bail conditions imposed, leading to higher rates of bail breaches in comparison to ethnic-majority defendants.(2) We suspect a similar situation exists in New Zealand – but there has been no research in this area since the 1950's.
Rethinking's main response has been to share resources as widely as we can, mostly through preparing discussion papers on the issue of structural discrimination. You can download some of these at the end of this blog.
Key Resources
This paper explores the existence of structural discrimination and personal racism within the criminal justice system, and proposes a way forward.
It is the role of our criminal justice leaders, through the Justice Sector Leadership Board, to ensure that policies and practises at the very least do not exacerbate existing unjustified disparity. Racial Impact Statements are one way of engaging in a pro-active assessment of how to address these issues in a constructive way.

Inpatient means an individual who is admitted to a hospital for bed occupancy for purposes of receiving inpatient hospital services as described in 409.10 of this chapter with the expectation that he or she will remain at least overnight and occupy a bed even though the situation later develops that the individual can be discharged or transferred to another hospital and does not actually use a hospital bed overnight.
Scoping language
Applicability of provisions of this section.
(1) In the case of a hospital that has an emergency department, if an individual (whether or not eligible for Medicare benefits and regardless of ability to pay) "comes to the emergency department", as defined in paragraph (b) of this section, the hospital must—
(i) Provide an appropriate medical screening examination within the capability of the hospital's emergency department, including ancillary services routinely available to the emergency department, to determine whether or not an emergency medical condition exists. The examination must be conducted by an individual(s) who is determined qualified by hospital bylaws or rules and regulations and who meets the requirements of § 482.55 of this chapter concerning emergency services personnel and direction; and
(ii) If an emergency medical condition is determined to exist, provide any necessary stabilizing treatment, as defined in paragraph (d) of this section, or an appropriate transfer as defined in paragraph (e) of this section. If the hospital admits the individual as an inpatient for further treatment, the hospital's obligation under this section ends, as specified in paragraph (d)(2) of this section.
(i) When a waiver has been issued in accordance with section 1135 of the Act that includes a waiver under section 1135(b)(3) of the Act, sanctions under this section for an inappropriate transfer or for the direction or relocation of an individual to receive medical screening at an alternate location do not apply to a hospital with a dedicated emergency department if the following conditions are met:
(A) The transfer is necessitated by the circumstances of the declared emergency in the emergency area during the emergency period.
(B) The direction or relocation of an individual to receive medical screening at an alternate location is pursuant to an appropriate State emergency preparedness plan or, in the case of a public health emergency that involves a pandemic infectious disease, pursuant to a State pandemic preparedness plan.
(C) The hospital does not discriminate on the basis of an individual's source of payment or ability to pay.
(D) The hospital is located in an emergency area during an emergency period, as those terms are defined in section 1135(g)(1) of the Act.
(E) There has been a determination that a waiver of sanctions is necessary.
(ii) A waiver of these sanctions is limited to a 72-hour period beginning upon the implementation of a hospital disaster protocol, except that, if a public health emergency involves a pandemic infectious disease (such as pandemic influenza), the waiver will continue in effect until the termination of the applicable declaration of a public health emergency, as provided under section 1135(e)(1)(B) of the Act.

Statistically speaking, a good portion of the continental US and Canada has its hottest average day of the year right around now. So I thought it was a good time to share some thoughts on the modern household's biggest energy consumer in July – the Air Conditioner.
See, normally I'd assume that we're all adults and we're able to decide for ourselves how to run our own appliances. But after being on my current summer vacation for over three weeks and visiting a large number of family and friends throughout the not-overly-hot Great Lakes region, I've noticed that most people leave their goddamned air conditioners running 24 hours a day, whether it is warm or cool outside, with their houses at a stupidly low temperature. Yes folks, it has become obvious that America and Canada both need a lesson from Mr. Money Mustache on how to use their Air Conditioners.
I recently measured the power consumption of the central A/C system in my own house. Mine is a "3-ton" (36,000 BTU/hr) system which dates back to about 1998, when my house was built. At the time, it was considered fairly efficient with a seasonal energy efficiency rating (SEER) of 10. Newer units, thanks to EPA rules, are now much better with ratings of 14 and higher – changes the SEER rating translate almost directly into similar percentage decreases in your cooling costs. When in full operation, my system uses 3,000 Watts (3kW) of electricity, about 500 of which is my furnace blower pumping the cool air around the house (and adding its 500 watts of heat back into the cool air stream, by the way).
For those without electrical engineering backgrounds, 3,000 watts is an Absolute Shitload of electricity. It's enough to run 230 modern light bulbs simultaneously, and it's equal to having about 15 monster-legged tour-de-France-level cyclists hooked up pumping at race level on bike generators continuously in your basement.
At the national average price for electricity of 12 cents/kWh, my air conditioning system burns 36 cents per hour, or $86 per month if used for 8 hours per day. With a three-month cooling season, this would compound to SEVERAL THOUSAND dollars of wasted electricity every ten years. Yet my TOTAL average electric bill in summer, despite an average daily high temperature of almost 90 degrees in Colorado, is really only about $35. How could this be?
The answer of course is that I have just cut out the waste, without sacrificing any real happiness or comfort.
Here's how comfort works. Your body generates heat just by being alive. It needs to maintain its internal temperature at around 98 degrees F, and it depends on the skin surface temperature being lower than this to dump extra heat into the surrounding air. Producing sweat helps you cool the body faster, since the sweat sucks up heat as it evaporates. Humid air cannot evaporate your sweat as quickly, which is why it feels hotter. All basic elementary school science, right? This is why the Southeastern United States is a sucky place to be in summer even at 85 degrees F, while the desert states can feel quite comfy and invigorating at that temperature.
Finally, your body becomes more efficient at cooling itself the longer it spends at higher temperatures and humidities. Every summer as I drive from Colorado down into Nebraska and beyond, I break out into a great sweat and need to crank the car A/C. Even at midnight when the temperature drops into the sixties, I still can't stand the humidity and need to continue the air conditioning. But within two days, I am comfortable with the higher humidity and I enjoy a regular Eastern summer with no difficulty. As July progresses and things get hotter, I am usually visiting a portion of my family with no A/C, so my body continues to adapt. There are a few days when the temperature is so high that I get uncomfortable, but then I spray myself with the garden hose and drink a gallon of water with ice cubes and all is well.
I also take advantage of the natural cycle of the environment. In the US Northeast and Canada, and even more in the Western desert areas, the temperature usually drops at night. So non-A/C users take advantage of this fact to open all their windows, and use large fans (100 watts) to exhaust heat and draw in cool air to chill the entire interior contents of their homes. A 100 watt fan blowing outwards from your highest window is pulling in night air from all other windows that is 10+ degrees cooler than your house. By sucking in thousands of cubic feet of cool air per minute, this fan is doing almost as much cooling as the 3,000 watt air conditioning unit that does the same job during the day time. The Naturally Cool crowd also makes a point of enjoying more outdoor food cooking and clothes drying on hot days, to further reduce indoor heat sources.
This is to be contrasted with the behavior of Air Conditioning addicts, who set their thermostats to a silly temperature below 80 and let that baby run, night or day. They might turn it off at night, but forget to open the windows, so they miss out on the free night-time cooling. I remember staying over at one friend's house in June and heading out for a midnight errand. It was so cool outside that I needed a sweater. Yet his air conditioner was still running, pumping out the remaining heat from the 90-degree sunny day that had just passed. Meanwhile his body was not bothering adapt to summertime heat and humidity, because his house was always refrigerator-like inside. All of this is completely unnecessary!
The Mustachian Way is to think of Air Conditioning as a pleasant luxury to be used when all other efforts fail. Much like a car. It should be an exciting moment in your household, when every one is drinking their gallon-sized containers of icewater, wearing comfortable and summery outfits of bare feet and tanktops, and the ceiling fan is running, when you proclaim, "God Dammit it is hot today!! Let's turn on the AIR CONDITIONING!! YEAH!!!!"
Then you run it for an hour or two, and the sun goes behind a tree, and you shut it back off again. And you open the windows that night and run the fan and go on with your lives.
If this sounds like too much hassle to you, grow some Frugality Muscles, punch yourself in the face, and try again. This is my Earth you are messing with, and your own Money Mustache you are burning off in the boiler of your local Coal-fired power plant.
Stay Cool!
Mr. Money Mustache.

defpackage defined-package-name [[option]] => package
option::= (:nicknames nickname*)* | (:documentation string) | (:use package-name*)* | (:shadow {symbol-name}*)* | (:shadowing-import-from package-name {symbol-name}*)* | (:import-from package-name {symbol-name}*)* | (:export {symbol-name}*)* | (:intern {symbol-name}*)* | (:size integer)
Arguments and Values:
defined-package-name---a string designator.
package-name---a package designator.
nickname---a string designator.
symbol-name---a string designator.
package---the package named package-name.
defpackage creates a package as specified and returns the package.
If defined-package-name already refers to an existing package, the name-to-package mapping for that name is not changed. If the new definition is at variance with the current state of that package, the consequences are undefined; an implementation might choose to modify the existing package to reflect the new definition. If defined-package-name is a symbol, its name is used.
The standard options are described below.
The order in which the options appear in a defpackage form is irrelevant. The order in which they are executed is as follows:
If a defpackage form appears as a top level form, all of the actions normally performed by this macro at load time must also be performed at compile time.
(defpackage "MY-PACKAGE" (:nicknames "MYPKG" "MY-PKG") (:use "COMMON-LISP") (:shadow "CAR" "CDR") (:shadowing-import-from "VENDOR-COMMON-LISP" "CONS") (:import-from "VENDOR-COMMON-LISP" "GC") (:export "EQ" "CONS" "FROBOLA") ) (defpackage my-package (:nicknames mypkg :MY-PKG) ; remember Common Lisp conventions for case (:use common-lisp) ; conversion on symbols (:shadow CAR :cdr #:cons) (:export "CONS") ; this is the shadowed one. )
Affected By:
Existing packages.
Exceptional Situations:
If one of the supplied :nicknames already refers to an existing package, an error of type package-error is signaled.
An error of type program-error should be signaled if :size or :documentation appears more than once.
Since implementations might allow extended options an error of type program-error should be signaled if an option is present that is not actually supported in the host implementation.
The collection of symbol-name arguments given to the options :shadow, :intern, :import-from, and :shadowing-import-from must all be disjoint; additionally, the symbol-name arguments given to :export and :intern must be disjoint. Disjoint in this context is defined as no two of the symbol-names being string= with each other. If either condition is violated, an error of type program-error should be signaled.
For the :shadowing-import-from and :import-from options, a correctable error of type package-error is signaled if no symbol is accessible in the package named by package-name for one of the argument symbol-names.
Name conflict errors are handled by the underlying calls to make-package, use-package, import, and export. See Section 11.1 (Package Concepts).
See Also:
documentation, Section 11.1 (Package Concepts), Section 3.2 (Compilation)
The :intern option is useful if an :import-from or a :shadowing-import-from option in a subsequent call to defpackage (for some other package) expects to find these symbols accessible but not necessarily external.
It is recommended that the entire package definition is put in a single place, and that all the package definitions of a program are in a single file. This file can be loaded before loading or compiling anything else that depends on those packages. Such a file can be read in the COMMON-LISP-USER package, avoiding any initial state issues.
defpackage cannot be used to create two ``mutually recursive'' packages, such as:
(defpackage my-package (:use common-lisp your-package) ;requires your-package to exist first (:export "MY-FUN")) (defpackage your-package (:use common-lisp) (:import-from my-package "MY-FUN") ;requires my-package to exist first (:export "MY-FUN"))
However, nothing prevents the user from using the package-affecting functions such as use-package, import, and export to establish such links after a more standard use of defpackage.
The macroexpansion of defpackage could usefully canonicalize the names into strings, so that even if a source file has random symbols in the defpackage form, the compiled file would only contain strings.
Frequently additional implementation-dependent options take the form of a keyword standing by itself as an abbreviation for a list (keyword T); this syntax should be properly reported as an unrecognized option in implementations that do not support it.

Because things are not going well for liberals who have driven the Democrat Party out of the American mainstream, I thought it would be helpful to come up with a list of suggestions for them to consider in 2014. So here goes:
Touch a gun. Guns do not bite, nor do they kill. Instead, guns protect potential victims. There is a reason gun free zones are considered magnets for mass killers. Gun-free zones are helpless victim zones. Here in the Arctic, guns protect residents from dangerous animals (and people) and also help put food on the table. A big moose can provide 700 pounds of lean and healthy meat all winter.
Share in a meaningful debate. Be warned: It is not for the weak-minded, spineless, or those with an undisciplined tongue. It takes a lot of practice. Using inane adjectives to discredit your opponent is juvenile and ignorant, but thoughtful rebuttal is enlightening and refreshing.
Seek truth. The truth will set you free, right after it exasperates you, which is why it is wise to form a few relationships with those with whom you do not necessarily agree. Truth is not contingent upon your personal interpretation; truth is simply truth. Expand your knowledge by staying informed. Your news diet should include alternate points of view beyond Comedy Central or MSNBC, if for no other purpose than to understand the other side of the argument.
Value life. According to Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life, in the United States one baby is aborted every 26 seconds, 137 per hour, 3304 per day, 23,196 per week, 100,516 every month and 1,206,192 babies are aborted per year. And those are just the ones reported. Why not add babies to your "endangered lists" and begin saving them?
Make money. If you have a job, be grateful, if not, go get one or create your own. Hop off that never-ending hamster wheel of "I can't get a job because I have no experience," stop blaming the economy and become part of the solution. Remember: If you have minimum skills and minimum motivation, you have no right to complain about working for minimum wage. And when you get that job, please work hard because millions on welfare depend on you.
Put your money where your mouth is. Either embrace capitalism or stop buying your coveted Apple products. Steve Jobs was a capitalist.
Do charitable work. Letting government programs do for you what you should be doing yourself is lame. There is nothing more rewarding than giving back time, energy and resources to those less fortunate. Most people could do without much of what they have. Instead of selling it on the internet, give it away.
Buy an SUV. The additional money you will pay for in gas is well worth the safety you will gain. Newer SUVs are outfitted with back up cameras roll bars and side airbags, they are engineered to balance weight and adjust to sudden changes. They also handle well in austere conditions where horse power and four wheel drive come in handy.
Become a student of history. Try reading Corrie Ten Boom's biography, The Hiding Place, which tells how her family risked their lives to help Jews escape the Nazis during World War II. Corrie was the only one in her family to survive the death camps. If you are really brave, and have the funds, take a trip to the Dachau Concentration Camp in Germany.
Read the U.S. Constitution. When Republicans took over the House of Representatives in 2011 the first order of business was to read the Constitution. Some Congressional liberals like Jerrold Nadler (D-New York) complained that reading aloud the document Americans have revered as the law of the land for more than 200 years was "propaganda" and "total nonsense." You might as well read it to find out what all the fuss is about.
Sure hope this helps.

Image: Saint Gregory the Great | Jusepe de Ribera, also known as José de Ribera
Saint of the Day for September 3
(c. 540 – March 12, 604)
Saint Gregory the Great's Story
Gregory was the prefect of Rome before he was 30. After five years in office he resigned, founded six monasteries on his Sicilian estate, and became a Benedictine monk in his own home at Rome.
Ordained a priest, Gregory became one of the pope's seven deacons, and also served six years in the East as papal representative in Constantinople. He was recalled to become abbot, but at the age of 50 was elected pope by the clergy and people of Rome.
Gregory was direct and firm. He removed unworthy priests from office, forbade taking money for many services, emptied the papal treasury to ransom prisoners of the Lombards and to care for persecuted Jews and the victims of plague and famine. He was very concerned about the conversion of England, sending 40 monks from his own monastery. He is known for his reform of the liturgy, and for strengthening respect for doctrine. Whether he was largely responsible for the revision of "Gregorian" chant is disputed.
Gregory lived in a time of perpetual strife with invading Lombards and difficult relations with the East. When Rome itself was under attack, he interviewed the Lombard king.
His book, Pastoral Care, on the duties and qualities of a bishop, was read for centuries after his death. He described bishops mainly as physicians whose main duties were preaching and the enforcement of discipline. In his own down-to-earth preaching, Gregory was skilled at applying the daily Gospel to the needs of his listeners. Called "the Great," Gregory has been given a place with Augustine, Ambrose, and Jerome, as one of the four key doctors of the Western Church.
An Anglican historian has written: "It is impossible to conceive what would have been the confusion, the lawlessness, the chaotic state of the Middle Ages without the medieval papacy; and of the medieval papacy, the real father is Gregory the Great."
Gregory was content to be a monk, but he willingly served the Church in other ways when asked. He sacrificed his own preferences in many ways, especially when he was called to be Bishop of Rome. Once he was called to public service, Gregory gave his considerable energies completely to this work. Gregory's description of bishops as physicians fits in well with Pope Francis' description of the Church as a "field hospital."

We're pleased to announce the second alpha release of the jQuery Mobile project. This release includes a number of bug fixes and enhancements to the original jQuery Mobile Alpha 1 release.
Overall the quality of jQuery Mobile has been greatly improved. A number of subsystems have been rewritten (both for clarity and for performance) and cross-browser compatibility has seen a marked increase in quality. We're planning on releasing at least one more alpha (or beta) before the end of the year, followed by a final 1.0 release in January.
Demos and Documentation
All the jQuery Mobile demos and documentation can be found in the unified demo application:
This includes demos and documentation for all the changes in jQuery Mobile 1.0a2, including:
- Events
- API and Methods
- Ajax Form Handling
- URL handling and transitions
- Global Configuration
We provide CDN-hosted versions of jQuery Mobile for you to include into your site. These are already minified and compressed – and host the image files as well. It'll likely be the fastest way to include jQuery Mobile in your site.
NOTE: jQuery Mobile 1.0 Alpha 2 requires jQuery 1.4.4.
CDN-Hosted JavaScript:
- Uncompressed: jquery-mobile-1.0a2.js (102KB, useful for debugging)
- Minified and Gzipped: jquery-mobile-1.0a2.min.js (13KB, ready to deploy)
CDN-Hosted CSS:
- Uncompressed: jquery-mobile-1.0a2.css (49KB, useful for debugging)
- Minified and Gzipped: jquery-mobile-1.0a2.min.css (6KB, ready to deploy)
Copy-and-Paste Snippet:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a2/jquery.mobile-1.0a2.min.css" /> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.4.4.min.js"></script> <script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0a2/jquery.mobile-1.0a2.min.js"></script>
More details on how this works can be found in the page and layout documentation.
If you want to host the files yourself you can download a zip of all the files:
ZIP File:
- Zip File: jquery-mobile-1.0a2.zip (JavaScript, CSS, and images)
The current state of the jQuery Mobile test lab.
If you wish to help with testing of jQuery Mobile we recommend that you hop on to Github and grab the latest source. Additionally please test against the latest version of the source at our test URL and file bugs in the bug tracker:
- jQuery Mobile Source Code
- jQuery Mobile Test Page (Pulls directly from the latest commit)
- jQuery Mobile Bug Tracker
Bug Fixes
Lots and lots of bug fixes have been made in this release – about 200 tickets have been closed since the 1.0 Alpha 1 release and we're continuing to work strong
List Views
The performance of loading a large listview has been greatly improved. We're seeing around a 3x improvement in speed, depending upon the platform.
Additionally you can now call refresh on a list view for when you add new items, to apply the list view styling to them.
Select Menus
The new refresh functionality has been added to select menus as well, allowing you to add the select menu styling to newly-injected items.
Additionally the accessibility of select menus has been improved, allowing your to navigate through the select menu using the keyboard (such as being able to open the select menu with the 'enter' key and navigate using the arrow keys).
Scrolling and Headers/Footers
The performance of page scrolling has been greatly improved – as has the performance and quality of fixed headers and footers.
Navbar Overhauled
The navbar functionality has been overhauled using the grid model work provided by the framework allowing for much greater flexibility in the design of the navbar.
URL Navigation Refactored
Much of the handling for loading new pages (via Ajax) has been overhauled and tremendously improved. The functionality has been encapsulated in a new changePage method that gives a great amount of flexibility as to how data should be loaded and how page-to-page transitions should work.
Ajax Form Handling
In addition to the automatic handling of internal links (converting them into Ajax requests and introducing smooth page-to-page transitions), Alpha 2 also handles the same functionality for forms. Form submissions will now pass through the changePage method – allowing for smooth form submission, transitions, and page loads. More information about this technique can be seen in the documentation.
jQuery UI Widget Factory
All of the relevant jQuery Mobile widgets have moved over to building off of the jQuery UI Widget Factory. This gives us the ability to have greater extensibility and methods (such as the ability to disable controls). Specifically in this release Dialog, Form Buttons, listview, collapsible, Checkbox/Radio, textinput, slider / switch, Select menu, have all moved over to the widget factory, and we're continuing to work on extending the methods and events those plugins provide.
In addition to moving to the jQuery UI Widget Factory a new method for dialogs has been introduced: close (naturally, allowing you to close a dialog once open). You can call it like so: .dialog("close")
Global Configuration
jQuery Mobile now has a number of ways to override the initial configuration of a number of aspects of the framework (such as disabled Ajax-style links or forms). This can allow you to sculpt jQuery Mobile to work in situations that are more-specialized and don't fit the complete design methodology of the framework (giving you the ability to only use a couple widgets rather than the framework as whole, for example).
Media Query Helpers
A new set of CSS classes have been introduced that are automatically updated on resize and orientationchange that you can use to scale your layout to particular devices and rotations. These are designed to work even in browsers that don't support CSS Media Queries.
New Methods
A number of static methods have been added to make some common tasks quite simple, such as: Scrolling the page, showing the loading message, changing pages, and other tasks.
The documentation for jQuery Mobile's events has been drastically improved. jQuery Mobile publishes a number of events that can be utilized to write complex mobile applications (and can be used separately from the jQuery Mobile framework).
For this release we would like to thank Filament Group (specifically Scott Jehl who was responsible for much of the development of the release and Todd Parker who was responsible for the design), Adobe (specifically Kin Blas who helped to fix a number of bugs and Jorge Taylor), Ben Alman (for helping to improve orientationchange), RIM (for providing us with test devices), and Nokia (for providing us with test devices).

Home Inspection Checklist in West Palm Beach
In last week's blog, we looked at problems found during a home inspection that are the result of improper installation (roof coverings, roof flashings, skylights, exterior siding, and electrical). We've decided to continue in this direction by highlighting a few other areas in which poor workmanship, makeshift repairs, and use of incorrect materials are commonly found by A-Pro home inspectors.
Why continue focusing on installation problems? The truth is that even the most respected roofers, carpenters, electricians, and plumbers can make mistakes from time to time. When critical home systems are installed or repaired by do-it-yourselfers or less reputable contractors, the chances for errors increase exponentially. It's why a fair, honest, and unbiased assessment performed by a third-party home inspector should never be skipped when shopping for a home.
Our goal is not to pick on the countless quality contractors who do a spectacular job in the markets we serve. Far from it. In fact, A-Pro Home Inspection services are unique in that we report on both the positive aspects of a home as well as the trouble spots. But when ill-advised installation practices are discovered, you can rest assured that A-Pro's inspectors will include them in their reports.
Today, our Home Inspection Installation Problem Checklist (Part II) covers some of the issues we find with gutters and downspouts, plumbing, insulation, windows, and doors:
Gutters and Downspouts: When not installed properly, a gutter system will fail to direct rainwater and melting ice and snow away from the home, resulting in an increased chance of foundational damage, staining of exterior cladding, and potential water penetration. Gutters must be sloped downward so water and debris flow toward the downspout opening and eventually away from the base of the house. If the level or sloping the other way, the gutter will collect water which could eventually cause corrosion, sealant failure, leakage, spill-over, and system damage due to the extra weight. Other installation defects include leaky downspout joints that have been installed upside down, insufficiently attached downspouts and downspouts that don't terminate far enough away from the foundation, causing soil soakage that could expedite foundational settling.
Plumbing: One of the most frequent issues found during a home inspection is amateurish plumbing repairs. These often take the form of duct tape wrapped around a leaky pipe. Another familiar DIY plumbing defect is fixture installations with cross-connections that allow backflow of contaminated water into the home's drinking supply. In addition, a single amateurishly installed pipe can end up causing tens of thousands of dollars in damage. Among other concerns, the inspector will report on leaky water supply pipes caused by lack of insulation (often in basements and crawl spaces); the presence of leak-prone PB piping used in homes from 1978-1995; use of potentially harmful pre-1960s zinc-coated galvanized pipes; ABS waste piping, which is known for its high failure rates; and leaks in toilets and other fixtures that can be attributed to unprofessional workmanship.
Doors: Lack of flashing at the bottom of an exterior door is a common problem found by home inspectors. The use of caulk, instead of well-installed metal flashing, will eventually allow moisture penetration into the home. On the interior, the inspector may cite a number of door installation concerns, including inaccurate fitment, misalignment, the latch bolt not being aligned with the striking plate, and door edges that are cut too deep, causing hinge-binding.
Windows: Like with doors, flashing problems rank at the top of common window installation deficiencies. The inspector will note instances where caulking has been used instead of metal flashing to block water penetration, particularly at the top of the window trim. Gaps between window frames and the sill or between the frame and the wall is a problem that can occur when an installer hasn't accurately measured the job. This can lead to energy losses, drafty conditions, and wood rot. Damaged paint, mold, rotting wood, condensation, and hard-to-open sashes (not due to settling) are all indications that an amateurish installation may be the culprit.
Insulation: Your home inspector will report on several installation problems regarding insulation, including material that is blocking attic vents, and batt insulation with the paper vapor barrier facing the wrong way (on the outside rather than facing down).

Best Children's Books
The best children's books: 5-7 year-olds. From Roald Dahl's bestselling Charlie and the Chocolate Factory to Jill Murphy's The Worst Witch, Julia Eccleshare picks her top reads for 5-7 year-olds.
- Brave Babe, born a runty little piglet, who is brought to the farm for fattening-up, cheats his destiny by learning new skills from his adoptive mother Fly, the sheepdog. Babe's sheep-working skills are all his own and soon his unique technique of speaking respectfully to the sheep brings him fame as well as saving Farmer Hogget's sheep from harm. Funny and touching.
- Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: Roald Dahl
- Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory is one of fiction's most tantalising locations and Charlie Bucket's adventure a mouth-watering rollercoaster of a ride. Along with four other children, Charlie wins a golden ticket to be shown around. While Charlie blossoms on the trip, his four companions reach suitably sticky and disgusting ends as punishment for their revolting behaviour. Mr Willy Wonka dispenses prejudiced and violent justice, which children adore.
- The Legend of Captain Crow's Teeth: Eoin Colfer
- The sometimes horrible but always fascinating way in which brothers treat one another lives on in this hilarious story of how Will's older brother Marty spooks the daylights out of him with a terrible tale of the deadly pirate Captain Crow. The thought of what the bloodthirsty pirate might do sets off a chain reaction of disasters for Will but also a just and delightful comeuppance for Marty.
- The Adventures of Captain Underpants: Dav Pilkey
- Cartoon illustrations, a chunky format and pants in the title make this an easy choice for new readers. Superhero Captain Underpants hurtles through adventures, seeing off all kinds of opposition from aliens and the rest. Loads of slapstick humour to enjoy in the pictures, as well as easy-to-read speech bubbles that support the longer storyline.
- The Worst Witch: Jill Murphy
- It's hard enough to be hopeless in any school but, when it is spells that go wrong, the results can have unpredictable consequences. New girl Mildred Taylor doesn't quite get the hang of some of the magical homework set at Miss Cackle's Academy for Witches. The resulting chaos is delightful and hugely satisfying.
- The Adventures of the Dish and the Spoon: Mini Grey
- Everyone knows that the dish ran away with the spoon but, in this bittersweet rags-to-riches picture-book story, now we know what happened next. The couple sail to New York. Here they make big money as glamorous stage stars but then lose it all and set out on a less glamorous life as criminals. Sophisticated and glorious illustrations make this a visual treat.
- Flat Stanley: Jeff Brown
- Squashed flat when a billboard falls on top of him, Stanley lives a new and deliciously dotty life, being posted off on holiday – so much cheaper than a plane ticket – and being flown as a kite.
- Mr Gum and the Biscuit Billionaire: Andy Stanton
- Mr Gum is unremittingly nasty. He hates children, animals and even fun. But there is something he loves: money! So, when he finds someone with lots and lots of cash, he is determined to get his hands on it. Mr Gum's anarchic and outrageous behaviour has much to recommend him.
- Ug: Boy Genius of the Stone Age: Raymond Briggs
- Like all children, Ug questions everything. And with good reason. Briggs's Stone Age is solidly stony. Ug wants a soft ball to play with, cooked meat not raw. Above all, Ug longs for soft trousers. (His stone ones are hugely amusing.) A brilliant book about asking why.
- The Iron Man: Ted Hughes
- From its terrifying opening in which a strange creature crashes down a cliff, then scrabbles to put itself back together from the body parts that are strewn all over the beach, this mythic story is rich in unforgettable images. Underlying them, Hughes raises all kinds of questions about how people respond to anything new.
- Finn Family Moomintroll: Tove Jansson
- The stories of the Moomins have a timeless charm. Fantasy and reality fuse delightfully; the strong family feeling of the Moomins and the charming details of their domestic life sit comfortably alongside the magic that surrounds them. Here, Moomintroll and his friends have a wonderful set of adventures with a magical hat when they wake up from their long winter sleep.

If you're the owner of an incorporated business, you probably know that there's a tax advantage to taking money out of a C corporation as compensation rather than as dividends. The reason is simple. A corporation can deduct the salaries and bonuses that it pays executives, but not its dividend payments. Therefore, if funds are withdrawn as dividends, they're taxed twice, once to the corporation and once to the recipient. Money paid out as compensation is taxed only once, to the employee who receives it.
However, there's a limit on how much money you can take out of the corporation this way. Under tax law, compensation can be deducted only to the extent that it's reasonable. Any unreasonable portion isn't deductible and, if paid to a shareholder, may be taxed as if it were a dividend. The IRS is generally more interested in unreasonable compensation payments made to someone "related" to a corporation, such as a shareholder or a member of a shareholder's family.
How much compensation is reasonable?
There's no simple formula for reasonable compensation. The IRS tries to determine the amount that similar companies would pay for comparable services under similar circumstances. Factors that are taken into account include:
- The duties of the employee and the amount of time it takes to perform those duties;
- The employee's skills and achievements;
- The complexities of the business;
- The gross and net income of the business;
- The employee's compensation history; and
- The corporation's salary policy for all its employees.
There are some concrete steps you can take to make it more likely that the compensation you earn will be considered "reasonable," and therefore deductible by your corporation. For example, you can:
- Use the minutes of the corporation's board of directors to contemporaneously document the reasons for compensation paid. For example, if compensation is being increased in the current year to make up for earlier years in which it was low, be sure that the minutes reflect this. (Ideally, the minutes for the earlier years should reflect that the compensation paid then was at a reduced rate.)
- Avoid paying compensation in direct proportion to the stock owned by the corporation's shareholders. This looks too much like a disguised dividend and will probably be treated as such by IRS.
- Keep compensation in line with what similar businesses are paying their executives (and keep whatever evidence you can get of what others are paying to support what you pay).
- If the business is profitable, be sure to pay at least some dividends. This avoids giving the impression that the corporation is trying to pay out all of its profits as compensation.
Planning ahead can help avoid problems. If you have questions about reasonable compensation, contact us.
