SOS Great Lakes was among 47 organizations in the United States and Canada signatory to an open letter to Catherine McKenna, Minister of Environment and Climate Change, regarding OPG's response to the Minister's request for additional information about the DGR plan.
Read the letter below:
July 14th, 2016
Honourable Catherine McKenna
Minister of Environment and Climate Change
House of Commons
Ottawa ON K1A 0A6
Dear Minister McKenna,
Thank for your letter of July 4, 2016 in which you respond to Nuclear Waste Watch's joint letter of November 19, 2015 concerning the Deep Geologic Repository Project for Low and Intermediate Level Radioactive Waste (the Project) proposed by Ontario Power Generation.
We appreciate both your response and your interim actions. In particular, we were very encouraged by the directions set out in your letter of February 18, 2016 in which you requested that the proponent, Ontario Power Generation, provide additional information on three aspects of the environmental assessment:
- technically and economically feasible alternate locations for the Project,
- cumulative environmental effects of the Project, and
- an updated list of mitigation commitments for each identified adverse effect under the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act, 2012.
As you note in your letter to Nuclear Waste Watch, on April 15, 2016 Ontario Power Generation (OPG) wrote to the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (the Agency) outlining its intended approach to responding to your request for additional information, and indicating OPG's intention to provide a response by the end of 2016.
In your letter of July 4th you state that "Ontario Power Generation also noted it intends to file the requested information by the end of 2016," (emphasis added).
In fact, Ontario Power Generation states in their letter that they do not intend to respond as directed by you. Rather than the requested information, they intend to provide you with yet another set of reports that attempt to side step what is required of them.
More specifically:
Your requirement: A study that details the environmental effects of technically and economically feasible alternate locations for the project, with specific reference to actual locations that would meet Ontario Power Generation's criteria for technically and economically feasible.
OPG's Response: OPG has interpreted this request as follows: OPG will assess the environmental effects of two technically and economically feasible geologic regions in Ontario for a new low and intermediate level waste (L&ILW) disposal facility.
OPG has clearly stated they intend to do something other than what you have required of them, i.e. they intend to provide a conceptual comparison, rather than an assessment based on actual locations and stated criteria. If allowed to go this route, we anticipate that OPG will provide you with another iteration of the generic evaluations they provided the Joint Review Panel during the extended hearing, after the Joint Review Panel directed them to conduct a study of alternate locations. While the Joint Review Panel failed to require OPG to follow their direction, as Minister it is essential that you hold them to a reasonable standard of performance.
Your requirement: An updated analysis of the cumulative environmental effects of the Project in light of the results for the Phase I Preliminary Assessments undertaken by the Nuclear Waste Management Organization, which identified three potential host communities that fall within the traditional territory of the Saugeen Ojibway Nation.
OPG's Response: OPG will assess the cumulative effects of a hypothetical used fuel repository on the L&ILW DGR, within the boundaries of the DGR study area for those communities that are active in the NWMO siting process and which lie within the Saugeen Ojibway Nations (SON) traditional territory (i.e. HuronKinless and South Bruce
OPG is misinterpreting your direction. Simply put, OPG is proposing to assess the effect of one of their projects on another of their projects, rather than doing a cumulative effects study of the two projects in combination (OPG has majority control of the NWMO and owns 90% of the wastes that are subject of the NWMO project; the NWMO is the technical manager for OPG's proposed DGR for low and intermediate level wastes). OPG's proposed approach will not provide the information you required in your letter of February 2016.
As outlined in our joint letters of 19 November 2015 and of 6 February 2016 and in many additional public interest submissions, the Joint Review Panel recommendation that you approve Ontario Power Generation's proposed Deep Geologic Repository for Low and Intermediate Level Radioactive Wastes was in error. Ontario Power Generation failed to meet the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act (CEAA 2012), the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) Guidelines, and the JRP Agreement (as amended), including in the following areas:
- not identifying and evaluating a reasonable range of functionally different "alternatives to" the DGR;
- failing or refusing to conduct an appropriate site selection as an important component of adequately identifying and evaluating "alternate means" of carrying out the DGR;
- making insufficient information available to identify and evaluate the likelihood and/or significance of the DGR's environmental effects;
- not providing enough information to allow evaluation of mitigation measures that will be effective in preventing significant adverse environmental effects that may be caused by the DGR;
- not providing information at an appropriate level of detail that would allow evaluation of the adequacy of the follow-up program for the DGR; and
- not meeting the information requirements necessary to demonstrate that the DGR meets the sustainability purposes and precautionary requirements mandated under CEAA.
We appreciate that the direction you provided Ontario Power Generation in your February 2016 letter was an effort to have OPG address some of their repeated failures to meet the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act. However, as evidenced by their response of April 2016, it appears that OPG continues to be unwilling or unable to meet those requirements.
In planning subsequent procedural steps in the review and federal decision-making with respect to this Project, it is imperative that you and your office pay careful attention to the details of Ontario Power Generation's response and place it within the context of their pattern of nonconformance with both the requirements of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act and the directions of the previous Joint Review Panel. In addition, there are other gaps in the OPG application which must be filled prior to any approval being possible, such as repository and shaft collar design, final waste characterization, baseline health studies, etc.
In preparing this letter, we consulted with the 179 individual intervenors, intervening organizations, and co-signors to Nuclear Waste Watch's joint letters of November 2015 and February 2016 on the advice we would provide you with respect to the review process following OPG's submission, now expected by year-end of 2016.
The following points summarize our collective advice:
a) The Joint Review Panel appointed in 2012 is now functus with respect to their responsibilities and mandate under CEAA 2012;
b) Indigenous peoples, past intervenors in the review process and the public more generally must be consulted on the OPG response and other related matters prior to the issuing of your decision statement;
c) Direct consultation by you as Minister is the most appropriate course of action under these circumstances;
d) Given the technical nature of the decisions to be made and in light of your Government's commitment to making decisions based on sound science, we encourage you to seek – in particular – the advice of the Minister of Science, the Hon. Kirsty Duncan;
e) There may be a role of the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency in acting as support and secretariat for the actual consultation activities (e.g. discussion documents, public meetings, webinars, etc.), based on your direction and requirements.
We remain committed to working with you and other elected officials to achieve an informed outcome of this review process. Thank you for your continued consideration.

text: 21 Dec 2009 Categories: Church Law, Legal History 2 Comments Saint Lawyer: Lawyers Who Were Sainted Yeah, yeah. We can hear the hecklers already. And yet we, at duhaime.org, are the last ones to cherish vestiges of old boy's clubs. See what we wrote about Queen's Counsel and we never adopt the British habit of referring to their judges as "Lords". To us they're just Justice so-and-so. But saints? Now there's an appointment, complete with a formal perpetual feast day! Including the patron saint of lawyers, a civil law lawyer himself (France), St. Ives, there have been ten lawyers beatified (and for some, full sainthood), by the Roman Catholic Popes over the years. One, Benedetto Odescalchi, became Pope in Innocent XI in 1676. But Innocent the 11th was never made a saint although he was finally beatified in 1956. Caveat emptor: for the record, in case anybody is taking notes over at the Vatican, the author is presently chair of a church board (Fairfield United Church)?! In addition to St. Ives and Innocent XI, here is the ultimate and, sadly, all-male Christian lawyer roll of honour, saintly lawyers: Saint Germanus of Auxerre Also known as St. Germain, he was born in France in about 380. He studied and practised what historians call civil law but what would more likely be Roman law. As an up-and-coming young lawyer, Germain enjoyed a life of wealth until an event occurred which is best related as-is by the Catholic Enclyclopedia: "He resided at Auxerre and gave himself up to all the enjoyments that naturally fell to his lot. At length he incurred the displeasure of the bishop, St. Amator. It appears that Germain was accustomed to hang the trophies of the chase on a certain tree, which in earlier times had been the scene of pagan worship. Amator remonstrated with him in vain. One day when the duke was absent, the bishop had the tree cut down and the trophies burnt. Fearing the anger of the duke, who wished to kill him, he fled and appealed to the prefect Julius for permission to confer the tonsure on Germain. This being granted, Amator, who felt that his own life was drawing to a close, returned. When the duke came to the church, Amator caused the doors to be barred and gave him the tonsure against his will, telling him to live as one destined to be his successor, and forthwith made him a deacon. A wonderful change was instantly wrought in Germain, and he accepted everything that had happened as the Divine will." When Amator died, Germain was ordained Bishop of Auxerre, France. He was sent to Britain on several occasions to quell uprising of heretics. He started the process of building a cathedral in Auxerre. Germain died on July 31, 448 at Ravenna, Italy. Saint Castor of Apt Born in Nîmes, France, date uncertain. He started his life as a lawyer but married a religious woman and together, they made the transition to an austere, religious life. Castor founded a monastery at Manauque, France, and for that work of charity, was named Bishop of Apt, France. He died in about 420. His feast day is September 2. His relics are still preserved at the Apt Cathedral, in France Saint Salvius of Albi Salvius was born in Albi, France where he trained as a lawyer and served as a judge. He then abandoned his legal career and entered a monastery just outside of Albi where he was a recluse even from his fellow monks. But in 574, he was appointed Bishop of Albi, France against his will and yet took the position. When the plague hit Albi hard in 584, Bishop Salvius refused advice to stay in the monastery until the epidemic had blown over and instead, wandered the town to help the sick. According to Butler's Lives of the Saints, when inevitably he fell ill himself, he ordered his coffin, put on a death shroud and was ready for death when it came on September 10, 584. Saint Thomas Becket Born in 1118 in England, he studied civil law and canon law in France in about 1150. He became a favorite of Henry II. Becket was known to have acted as a circuit judge for the king in 1153 and soon was Chancellor (chief justice). In 1162, apprehensive of the consequences upon his relationship with Henry II, he nonetheless accepted the position of Bishop of Canterbury, England, while keeping his law political position as chancellor. Becket took to his job with a vengeance, and soon resigned as chancellor and opposed a tax demanded by Henry. As the dispute became public, Henry's followers began a series of legal cases against Becket including a charge of high treason in 1163. The king's followers obtained extravagant money judgments against Becket and tried to enforce their judgments. Becket fled to France and took counsel with the Pope, then at Sens, France. Becket returned to England with papers that sought to excommunicate four bishops that had supported Henry's demands. On December 20, 1170, Becket was assassinated. He was quickly canonized in 1173 by Pope Alexander III. Blessed Peter de Geremia Born in 1399 in Sicily, Italy, Peter de Geremia had his law degree from the prestigious University of Bologna well in hand, and a blossoming law practise when, according to a summary published by St. Patrick's Catholic Church in Washington, D.C.: "Having retired one night, he was pleasantly dreaming ... when he heard a knock at the window. As his room was on the third floor, and there was nothing for a human to stand on outside his window, he sat up, in understandable fright, and asked who was there. A hollow voice responded that he was a relative who had just died, a successful lawyer who had wanted human praise so badly that he had lied to win it, and now was eternally lost because of his pride. Peter ... began praying seriously to know his vocation.... God made known to him that he should enter the Dominican Order. He did so as soon as possible. His new choice of vocation was a bitter blow to his father, who had gloried in his son's achievements, hoping to see him become the most famous lawyer in Europe." De Geremia's father was Arduin, lawyer to King Alfonso I. De Geremia took priestly vows immediately and to purge himself of his sins, he wrapped an iron chain around his torso. He became known for alleged miracles such as stopping the eruption of Mount Etna by merely pointing religious relic at it. When he died in Sicily, in 1452, a ghastly secret was uncovered. The chain was still wound around his body and the scars had grown over it such that it could not be removed. Peter de Geremia was beatified by Pope Pius VI in 1784. Saint Charles Borromeo Also known as Carlo; he was born in 1538 and at the age of 7, had been tonsured (the top of his head was shaved as a mark of being a monk). He obtained his law degree, both civil law and canon law, at the age of 21 (1559). Months later, his uncle was named Pope (Pius IV) and Charles was quickly the recipient of prestigious appointments. He never had either an inkling or an opportunity to practise law but his talents were put to god use when for two years, he labored to find a consensus in a divided church, resulting in the publication, in 1564, of the Benedistuc Deus. Borromeo, pictured, to the right, was appointed priest and then, in 1563, Bishop of Milan. During his tenure, he presided over the development of the Acts of the Church of Milan, an essential collection of texts on canon law and decisions. In 1578, while the plague ravaged Milan, he founded the Congregation of Oblates. He is considered a founder of modern Sunday Schools and was often seen teaching children about God and how to pray. Pictured, at right, he died on November 3, 1584 at the young age of 46. Charles Borromeo was beatified in 1602 by Pope Clement VIII and canonized in 1610 by Pope Paul V. Blessed John Bodey Born at Wells, Somerset, England in 1549. He was trained as a common law lawyer at New College, Oxford and later traveled to France to obtain a civil law degree when the new administration of the university took away his fellowship. In 1580, he refused to take the oath declaring Elizabeth I supreme over even the church. He was arrested as a Papist and held in leg irons. In 1583, he was convicted of "maintaining the old religion and denying the Royal supremacy". Queen Elizabeth had him hung, drawn and quartered, a horrible death, at Andover on November 2, 1583; November 2 has become his formal feast day. He was beatified by Pope Pius XI in 1929. Saint Gregoria Barbarigo Also referred to as Gregorio and Gregory. Born in 1625 in Venice, Barbarigo was another who took a civil law and canon law degree and entered the priesthood upon graduation. In the Roman Catholic church, held the positions of Bishop of Bergamo, Italy, and of Padua, Italy. He is one of the authors of the Peace of Westphalia which ended the Thirty Year War which had enflamed the whole of Europe. Barbarigo was a voting member of the conclave of cardinals which elected his fellow lawyer the 240th pope, Innocent XI in 1676. Barbarigo died on July 18, 1697, was beatified in 1771 and canonized in 1960. The Gregorio Barbarigo Church in Rome was named after him.

I found her in Vegas, and that's where I left her. When we first met, she was in a wig, a waist-length, platinum wig with bangs that curtained open between her dark brown bangs. Her eyes were a rotted-wood brown. Her legs curtained open too just like the velvet red drapes at the burlesque show, but that's not the point of the story. I wanted to tell you about her talent…not that she dances with fire, not that she can swallow swords (and dicks like grape Kool-Aid), but her other talent.
I met her outside of The Charlatan, a fancy new hotel just across from the casino I had apparently disappeared in for over seven hours. When I came out for air, there she was, across the street, standing in black heels and a silver dress, like I said, in her platinum wig. I crossed traffic not worrying much about the cars. Her eyes were locked with mine – while I looked like a lost pup, she looked like she was ready to devour me. I had always been called handsome, but never had I ever fetched the attention of someone I deemed so attractive, someone so magnetic. Hours later, after her show, after I was dazzled by her peacock fans and crystal doused, wire-rimmed stage costume, after the drinks and gambling, we went back to my room and the wig came off. Her hair was as black as tar. Contrasted to her pale skin, she was a vixen. I wondered then why she ever wore the wig in the first place…maybe to protect her identity…maybe because it made her feel like someone else and made it easier to look in the mirror. I couldn't care less either way. I never lied to myself and thought to try and save her – I just wanted her for the night.
She led me to believe I could have her.
As she came to me, dropping her clothes on the floor, unstrapping her shoes between steps, wiping the bright red lipstick from her face, I felt myself growing uncomfortably hard beneath my jeans. I didn't want to adjust and distract from the situation, so I just watched…and ached. Call it masochism. I may have enjoyed it. When she shoved her hand down the front of my pants, she ended it. My head fell back, my chest filled with air…she squeezed just enough, and I lost my breath. When her free hand connected with my chest and I flew across the room, well, I was fully awake then and left trying to figure things out in my daze.
I felt pain, hot burning in my chest. I looked down to see a gaping hole…I looked up to see my heart in her hand. She pushed her tongue from her mouth and licked my still beating heart, then buried her teeth in the tissue and took a bite. I waited for death, knew it would take me quick…and when I was still awake to see her swallow, then take another bite, and another, I pulled a few deep, intentional breaths into my lungs and looked down again. Maybe she didn't have my heart, maybe I was on some killer pills, but sure enough, the hole was still there pumping blood in spurts onto the floor. She came to me again, pushed my heart in my face and told me to take a bite.
I obeyed. Why? I couldn't tell you. I want to say, "I've seen stranger things," because that's what you say in strange situations, but I would be lying…this definitely took the cake. What did it taste like? Well, I've never had a raw chicken liver, but if I had to pick, I think I would compare it to taking a bite from an oversized raw chicken liver. I chewed, twice, then swallowed. She called me a good boy then stuck the damned thing back in my chest. She told me then that I was one of "them" now and would have to find my own meals from here on out.
"One a week – no more, no less, or lest you'll find yourself six-feet deep."
I didn't speak, couldn't find any words in my mouth. I sat there like a layman watching her dress and leave. On her way out of my door, "The strip is my turf. I'd steer clear of New York and the entire west coast too. They don't take to the new ones. Stay south your first few months." Then the hotel door latched behind her. I didn't move, didn't try to. My cell was in my pocket. Instead I texted my parents to tell them I loved them, my friend to say I must have been on some killer LSD, and then I surfed Facebook and Twitter until I fell asleep propped on the drywall.
When I woke, the hole in my chest was gone, but I could still taste the iron on my tongue. There was a small scar over my heart and blood trailed across the room. I resisted at first, tried normal meals, tried ignoring the pangs. Ten days after my "death" I succumbed to my first feeding. I don't want to admit, but it was a homeless man, the first who seemed eligible when I felt like I was dying, and I do believe I was dying. My skin was tightening, my bones seemed to be cracking – it felt like I was about to crinkle into a ball of skin and broken bones, then spread into a powdery dust. I didn't even speak to him, I just pushed my hand between his ribs and took it, then left running.
Two years later, I saw her again on the strip, just outside The Charlatan. She gave me a glare – I raised my hands in defense and mouthed, "I'm only on vacation." This time she crossed the street for me, eyes locked, my gaze as confident as hers. That night I had her…we fucked until the sun came up. As I watched her leave again, I wondered what her heart would taste like. I told myself next time we met, I would find out.

Slow-paced but poignant pic based on an Alan Sillitoe novel which captures both the lyricism and grime of the Nottingham area. Carefully avoiding the pitfalls of the motorcycle thug genre, director Harold Becker weaves a bitter-sweet love affair between a petty teenage thief and the daughter of a wealthy rag dealer. Touches of humor and implied social comment, plus imaginative location lensing, give a ring of authenticity and honesty.
Both Simon Rouse and Patrick O'Connell, as the younger and older Tony, put in superb, convincing jobs of thesping as outcasts of society. Sillitoe steers clear of moralizing, and even social issues inherent in the relationship between the protagonists is made subservient to a broader concern for lost youth and the joys of yesteryear.

Financing Single Payer Health Coverage in California
Single payer health care in essence means Medicare for All, but with improvements to eliminate all copays and deductibles and to add long term care benefits. There has been fury about the Assembly Speaker's decision to take a pause and ask the proponents to figure out the financing. In my opinion, this is totally warranted and in fact overdue. This particular single payer proposal has been around the legislature nearly every year since 1988, and its financing to my best recollection has never cleared a single committee, and when it was put on the ballot in the 90's got only about a quarter of the vote – a pretty sound rejection by the state's voters and policy makers.
I helped work on the initial bill, helped analyze it for the Assembly Health Committee and discussed it later in a book I wrote called "California at the Crossroads: Choices for Health Reform" back in the early 90's. I am hardly an opponent, but in all honesty I have been frequently dismayed about the cavalier attitudes of the bill's sponsors and proponents about the very real political and policy challenges in financing single payer.
Health care costs in current dollars about $400 billion for California; most of that money is already in the health care system, but to finance a single payer you would need to turn it into taxes and then into revenues to be used for single payer and that's the rub. To put it in context, all state taxes in California now generate a bit under $180 billion for all of state government. So imagine the political difficulty of asking the state's voters to double their state taxes to pay for health coverage that over 90% already have in one form or another.
Let's discuss what needs to be done, then the challenging options about how to do it. Roughly a quarter of the state's health spending is in Medicare, another quarter is in Medicaid, a third is in employment based insurance, and a sixth is from individuals.
Medicare is financed 50/50 by employer and employee payroll taxes paid to the federal government. It pays hospitals and doctors at cost. There are substantial copays and deductibles in the Medicare program. Many seniors buy Medicare supp policies to reduce their exposure to out of pocket medical costs and over a third are enrolled in managed care plans. Some also buy long term care insurance to pay for nursing home care and in home care while most others pay out of pocket. To fold Medicare into a state-run single payer plan would require either an act of Congress or conceivably a federal §1115 waiver. These are extremely unlikely to occur in the age of President Trump, Senator McConnell and Representative Ryan and would face a wall of opposition even under a putative President Sanders.
In California, Medi-Cal is financed by our taxes paid to federal government, state government, county government, provider taxes and health plan taxes. It does cover all the services that the single payer bill would do; it has no deductibles and minimal co-pays. However nearly the entire program is enrolled in managed care plans, a far cry from the fee for service system envisaged by single payer proponents. Many providers are paid less than cost. To fold Medi-Cal into a single payer would require a federal §1115 waiver or Medicaid block grant; this is possible in the era of Trump, McConnell and Ryan who would prefer to block grant the entire program to the state, but their terms are likely to be onerous for a state who would like to experiment with single payer since they wish to cut the program's funding by one third over the next two decades.
Now, the financing gets much, much, much harder. Employment-based coverage covers half of all Californians. It pays providers more than their costs, balancing their losses in delivering Medi-Cal services. It is financed by employer and employees' premiums, and 33% of its costs are subsidized by the federal and state governments through the mechanism of pre-tax purchasing. Most are unaware of the federal and state tax subsidies and even how much their employer pays for their coverage; general awareness is limited to how much do I, the employee, contribute and what are my copays and deductibles. Every employer has a different plan, different copays, different deductibles and different share of employer and employee financing, and some offer multiple plans from which their employees choose. While virtually all large employers offer coverage for full time employees, a far smaller percentage of small low wage businesses do so, and family coverage is very spotty for the employees of small low wage employers. Logically, these employer and employee premiums could be turned into a state payroll tax in a revenue neutral fashion. For example, employers could pay 75% and employees could pay 25% -- the approximate average share in today's private market. Or it could be recast as a 50/50 payroll tax like the Social Security or the Medicare payroll taxes.
Developing agreement on a payroll tax with business and labor at the table will be like herding cats and dogs, but it would need to be done. Here are a few cautionary thoughts. First, one needs to capture the federal and state funds associated with pre-tax purchasing; this will require Trump, McConnell, Ryan, Schumer and Pelosi – a highly unlikely pairing – and extremely difficult negotiations as there is not a line item in the federal or state budget for this particularly large tax expenditure. This will require federal legislation. Second, the major employer associations, such as the Chamber, Farm Bureau, Small Business Associations and the Business Roundtable need to forge a common ground with the California Labor Federation and SEIU on a payroll tax replacing employer and employee; these are the cats and dogs to be herded and it needs a bi-partisan, bi-cameral, strong executive consensus to do so. Insulting those politicians that you need to convince sometimes helps them get to "yes", but more frequently it turns them into "hell, no".
Finally, one sixth of the health pie encompasses private individual spending. This is at least $66 billion in individual health care spending in California. It includes the copays and deductibles that insured individuals pay albeit at very different rates; these fall heaviest on the very sick or serious accident victims. It also includes out of pocket spending on very expensive uncovered services like long term care. This uncovered service is most typically used by middle and upper income seniors and their family members who do not qualify for Medi-Cal and have substantial fast eroding assets. It also includes out of pocket expenditures on health care from the uninsured, mostly of low and moderate income, and a respectable share are immigrants. It also includes the individually insured who pay for their own coverage. In other words, out of pocket spending encompasses both everyone and also discrete pockets of people and services left out of the subsidies in the current health care system.
How could you finance these out of pocket expenses through taxes? For example the individually insured and the uninsured could pay income taxes into the new health system in lieu of premiums just as the self-employed do under Medicare and Social Security; this would parallel the contributions of similarly situated employers and employees. The higher income seniors could pay a new Medicare Part E supplemental premium for their long-term care coverage; this would require Congressional action. To pay for eliminating the copays and deductibles for every Californian, one could consider expanding the state sales tax to services, which are not taxed. Services could be taxed equally to the purchase of goods – an important step in tax equity as our society steadily evolves from consuming goods to services.
The University of Massachusetts Research Team hired by the Nurses Association has two other suggestions. The first is a 2.3% sales tax. I think that we already pay significant sales taxes in California, and this is a non-starter with the public. The second is an interesting proposal for a 2.3% gross revenues tax. Insurers already pay this tax in lieu of other taxes. So do businesses in Los Angeles and Santa Monica, albeit at a much lower rate. The advantage of this tax would be to shift the onus from payroll taxes (which could reduce employment) to consumption taxes, which do not impact employment. One difficulty, which the authors do not discuss, is that a gross revenues tax is paid by in-state businesses and not by out of state businesses. So your neighborhood Von's or Ralph's would pay the gross revenues tax but their new out of state on line competitor Amazon might not do so – an unfair advantage for online and out of state sellers and merchants as opposed to in-state businesses.
Two other state constitutional impediments that must be overcome are the Gann limit and Proposition 98. The Gann limit circumscribes state spending and a single payer bill would put California far over the Gann limit. Proposition 98 guarantees the public schools a large share of state taxes; single payer tax revenues would need to exempt the new revenues from Prop 98.
There are some significant savings associated with a single payer system. The first and most important is the cost of insurance companies administration and profits. These are about 10% of premiums in the private insurance markets and could be reduced to 2-3% in a Medicare like model. The second is the bedeviling complexity of multiple health insurance plans and programs; some estimate this adds about 20% to the costs of running a hospital or doctor's office. Are we ready to cut their red tape and their reimbursements by 20%, or is this just a talking point? Consumers are trapped in the same paperwork nightmares and system complexity as providers so this would afford welcome relief. The third is the far higher prescription drug prices paid by Americans than any of the other countries that regulate the costs of prescription drugs. One could add that our doctors, nurses, and hospital personnel are also more generously compensated than their foreign counterparts. Fourth, we could rid ourselves of narrow networks, balance billing, surprise bills, catastrophic only coverage and impenetrably complex private and public bureaucracies.
The bill as currently constructed adds unnecessary and avoidable costs to the by far most expensive health system in the world. It returns to the hyper-inflationary days of fee for service medicine, cost based reimbursement and no out of pocket. It eliminates the important progress that has been made with integrated and capitated delivery systems such as Kaiser Health Plan and with payment reforms that incentivize the right care at the right time in the right place at the right cost. Thoroughgoing reimbursement reforms have to be a part of the bill.
The proponents might want to use the next year to fix the bill's financing, eliminate the inflationary aspects, and build on the great opportunities for better quality, improved outcomes and higher cost efficiency under a better and less costly health system. This would serve Californians well in the time of Trump.

I have noticed from the reports provided by WordPress that nobody clicks on the links that I have provided in my posts. This strikes me as very peculiar given the rather off-beat subjects that I bring up.
I realize that many of the hits on my blog arise from search engines and that the seeker isn't looking for the sort of stuff that I have presented. For example, in two places I make mention of nude models (in my mother's Hunter High school art classes and in the Artists Equity New Years Eve parties) so a number of people looking for something more "interesting" come to those posts, realize their mistake and immediately depart. I can understand that. What I can't understand is why others, who are there "on purpose" as it were, aren't following some of my links.
For one thing, I am older than almost all of my readers so many of my references are to events, things and people that they are not likely to be familiar with. For example, unless you go back as far as I do or are interested in anthropology, you might not understand my interest in the fact that Bronislaw Malinowski's daughter was a regular at Marshall Allen's parties or that I have met Edward Sapir's eldest son. For another, I am something of a polymath and there is considerable eclecticism evidenced in my interests and contacts with people: poets like Delmore Schwartz and Patrick Kavanagh (and brother, Peter), figures and events prominent in computing such as artificial intelligence founder Marvin Minsky, actors such as Ed Asner, Fritz Weaver, Paul Newman, Susan Sontag and others (in posts in the near future), painters such as Yasuo Kuniyoshi, chess masters such as Sammy Reshevsky and Robert Byrne and there will be architects, engineers, scholars of different sorts and so on and on.
So, use the links already!

This post goes hand in hand with my next, discussing painted finishes using stencils and plaster to create relief.
These are the new stencil design we recently added: (click on a design if you want more details)
I'm the one that has a hard time NOT adding a stencil somewhere on that piece of furniture I'm refinishing…
I favor designs like these above – ones that can be repeated for an allover effect, stacked, even split apart, using portions of the whole, and I like to make sure the stencils are thick enough to use with thicker mediums like plaster and stone products (again one of my favorite to-dos)
A stencil has to be able to withstand multiple uses and clean up, without breaking down, damaged edges etc.
My advise to anyone new to stenciling ?
If you let the stencil sit for a bit after you use it, you will find it much harder to clean, especially if you are stenciling with paints or plasters. I give it a fast rinse, then lay it on a flat surface and scrub with a fat brush and Deep Green
Deep Green is a super concentrated cleaner/stain remover that can be used full strength (how I like) or diluted for a daily cleaner. Full strength its quite powerful – it made quite a difference in my grungy work deep sink when I used it full strength on a brush –
With my stencils, I use my brush to grab some cleaner then swirl away on the dirty stencil …
laying it on a flat surface keeps from bending the stencil medium
Rinse your brush good, and your stencil, and lay it flat to dry.
You can find stencils, cleaners, and all my favorite chalk and clay and plaster type paints, finishes, glazes, sealers at our online store www.fabfinisher.com
If you need brushes we carry those as well, in all shapes and sizes. Our favorite round brush prices will knock your socks off 🙂
Enjoy your week,
hopefully filled with spring-like weather!

La Paz is a city that cares about the environment. This sign says, "We also drink water."All around, we see signs like this mural. There were some rainstorms several weeks ago, so the desert is very green and flowers are blooming.
Today we've made the decision to move. We love so many things about our casita and there's a lot we can make do without, but clean is a deal breaker for us.
I had told the casita's owner that we were going to look for a new place if he didn't fix the water and cockroach issues. He made a good-faith effort, but ultimately they weren't fixed. I doubt we'll get our money back, but it's better than living there for two months without running water and hearing the skittering of roaches while we sleep.
The good news is the B&B we stayed in the past two nights has a furnished apartment with a kitchenette for rent on a monthly or weekly basis, and it's just around the corner from our casita so we get to stay in the same neighborhood. It's more expensive, but still within our budget, so we think we'll be OK. The B&B's owner says she has some other apartments she's working on furnishing that will be available in November, so we'll reevaluate at the end of the month if needed. The good news is that all we have is our backpacks and Holly, so moving is a breeze.
The lesson here is that it's OK to "call it" and move past a poor decision, rather than sticking it out just for the sake of doing so. And if you're planning full-time travel, know that this could happen to you and it'll all work out in the end.
We've been having a nice time talking with locals and practicing our Spanish, so we're feeling pretty optimistic. Once the whole housing situation quiets down, we'll be good as gold.

Jan Blažej Santini Aichel. The Geometry of Sacred Space
Huset til den sorte madonna (Dům U Černé Matky Boží), Ovocný trh 19, Praha 1 - Staré Město, 110 00
- fr 8. 3. 2019 – sø 15. 9. 2019
Santini's buildings are so precise that if we know the compositional system of one, it is then a walk in the park to calculate that of any other of his. From this point of view, the buildings appear more like the shells of tightly fitting geometric equations. This gives them a truly unique proportional rhythm that we subconsciously perceive and consider harmonic. But what is most ingenious in Santini's work is in fact invisible. Thanks to the use of the same compositional system and unit of measurement, this set of selected buildings forms a unique, indivisible whole, by its proportions and dimensions in harmony with St Vitus' Cathedral. From the dimensions of one building, it is possible, by way of geometry, to derive the measurements and proportions of another. This exhibition explains the geometry of the compositional system common to the plans of the main works of the Bohemian architect Jan Blažej Santini Aichel. Many indices, however, point to the fact that the compositional system he used is traditional and that awareness of it in the Bohemian Lands extends back to the early 11th century.

International Women's Day - Thursday 8th March 2018
For too long the automotive industry has focused its vehicle design on men, but as we celebrate International Women's Day, it's more apparent than ever that women are just as powerful and look for style and luxury in far more than fashion!
In Aston Martin's 105 year history only 3,500 cars of the 70,000 ever built were bought directly by women. At Dick Lovett, we think it's about time that statistic was shaken up. The DBX is their answer for women dissatisfied with their current SUV and it's available next year.
It's this perception that inspired Dr Andy Palmer's latest concept, the Aston Martin DBX - the perfect combination of practicality and style. A rigorous review of modern buying trends, amongst women, fuelled the decision to design a car that would not only cater to the day to day needs of a busy woman but also provide the stunning status symbol many desire.
Beautifully practical SUV
Chief Creative Officer Marek Reichman and his team have ensured that the DBX is still unmistakably an Aston Martin. Designing what may be one of the most graceful interpretations of an SUV, ensuring they do not trade beauty for practicality or vice versa.
For instance, the DBX model is designed to be 'family-friendly' with room to comfortably accommodate four adults with plenty of storage space. This has been seamlessly coupled with stunning attention to detail for a sleek finish, including visible milling lines on the machined billet aluminium and a unique paint finish – Black Pearl Chromium – specially created to mimic the look of a genuine black pearl.
"Challenge the existing status quo"
When first unveiling the concept at the 85th Annual Geneva Motorshow in 2015, Aston Martin CEO Dr Andy Palmer said:
Luxury Grand Tourer for a new generation
Due to be launched late next year, in both a V8 and V12 engine, the Aston Martin DBX is not exclusive to any one type of buyer. This stunning vehicle will not only broaden the appeal of Aston Martin to a whole new generation of customers but also defy conventional thinking about the luxury GT segment.
We're excited to see that Aston Martin has already begun work on a production facility in Wales to build the DBX and we can't wait to see the finished product – it looks like a game changer!
If you'd like to know more about the Aston Martin DBX, or any other cars please contact us.

(photo by Ken Simon)
While it is considered as a bistro and not that of fine dinning, Pyramid is definitely for the sophisticated and cultured. You can enjoy dining while sipping wine of any kind or their signature cocktails like the Purple Haze and Lady Dragon. You are also allowed to enter their wine room and converse with the sommelier which talks very passionately regarding his craft. However their wines are not yet as extensive with the oldest wine originates in 2010

The Park boasts of clean, modern and eco-friendly ambiance and a vast choices of recreation that caters to any kind of personality.
Shaka Hawaiian Restaurant; Photo by Ken Simon
Yuppies from the Metro can easily associate the Park as a Little, more eco-friendly, Makati. However what's truly unique about CITP are their lifestyle and leisure centers. We recommend you visit not only the Pyramid, but also the Shaka Hawaiian Restaurant that offers delicious cuisine and a unique dining experience where you get to dine on a treehouse like balcony.

Warm Israeli Couscous Salad with Greek Yogurt Dressing
The snow's almost all gone, which means great news for my shoe game, but it does make me anxious for the next snowfall. Snowy days in New York, when you can barely see the Empire State Building from Sunnyside because the skyline gets so grayed up by the falling flurries--that's some special shit.
Whilst I wait for the next snow, I have had lots to keep me busy. Namely, all of this Kardashian-West-Jenner drama. Rob's Instagram! Kanye's rant! Tyga and Scott Disick on Kocktails with Khloe! To those of you who are not yet enamored by the twists and turns of America's royal family, I'd like to know if you think Shakespeare or Austen were good drama-makers. If so, how can you deny Kris Jenner's masterful storytelling and Zeffereli-level production value. (Listen, I'm a high brow/low brow chick.)
Oh and then this mystery sonic boom today that shook Long Island and New Jersey; that kept me pretty preoccupied at work today.
Otherwise, I have been very good about my spending freeze and thusly created lots of lunches out of the miscellany in my fridge and pantry. This couscous salad will enter into regular rotation right next to my favorite ravioli, though it began as a real franken-lunch, using ingredients I'd almost forgotten about (the couscous I bought before we moved, the chicken breast deep in the freezer). You're especially going to love this tangy-sweet dressing, which is a little more like a healthy alternative to slathering your salad in mayonnaise, not that there's anything wrong with that.
Warm Israeli Couscous Salad with Greek Yogurt Dressing
- 1 chicken breast
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 small onion
- 2 small chilis (use less or none if you don't like heat)
- 1/2 cup Israeli couscous
- salt
- 3/4 cup water
- 1/2 cup chopped cucumber
- 1/2 cup grape tomatoes, halved
- 1 Tbsp golden raisins
For the Dressing
- 1/2 cup Greek yogurt
- 2 Tbsp lemon juice
- 1 tsp honey
- 1 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar
- salt, pepper
Cooking Directions
- Chop chicken into cubes. Heat oil in a skillet over medium high heat. Brown chicken on all sides. When cooked (about 8 - 10 minutes), remove from pan and set aside.
- Chop onion and add to pan, cook until softened. Chop chilis and add. Cook for another 2 minutes. Add couscous and toast for a few minutes.
- Add in a big pinch of salt and water. Bring liquid to a simmer and cook for about ten minutes, until liquid has been absorbed into couscous. Turn off heat and stir in cucumbers, tomatoes, and raisins.
- In a separate bowl, stir together dressing ingredients until well combined.
- Spoon couscous into your lunch container. Top with dressing and toss well. Eat! (Serves 2 or makes 2 lunches for your week.)

Goldman, Morgan Stanley to become Fed regulated2 min read . Updated: 22 Sep 2008, 03:06 PM IST
Goldman, Morgan Stanley to become Fed regulated
Goldman, Morgan Stanley to become Fed regulated
Washington: Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley gave up their cherished investment banking status in return for cover under the Fed's wing to survive a financial storm that US authorities aim to tackle with a $700 billion bailout plan.
The Federal Reserve approved the two bank's transformation into bank holding companies regulated by the central bank, effectively ending Wall Street's investment banking model and subjecting the two to much tighter regulation.
In return it gives Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley greater access to central bank funds and makes it easier for them to buy retail banks.
"It creates a perception of greater safety and supervision. It really rationalizes the regulatory system. It should be good for both Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley," said Chip MacDonald, mergers partner at law firm Jones Day.
The move is the latest effort by the US authorities to restore calm to chaotic financial markets follows frantic weekend talks between the Bush administration and the Congress on the bailout scheme to prevent further financial market turmoil from hurtling the economy into a severe recession.
The largest-ever bank rescue would give sweeping powers to the US Treasury to buy up toxic mortgage-related debt from financial firms, including US subsidiaries of foreign banks.
The bailout plan follows a wrenching week that transformed Wall Street with Lehman Brothers' failure, the agreed sale of Merrill Lynch & Co and a government takeover of ailing insurer AIG It was also possible that within days, Morgan Stanley would accept a partner.
Political scramble
Democratic leaders in Congress promised swift action, but also want to throw a lifeline to homeowners, not just Wall Street. With the economy issue No. 1 in an election less than six weeks away, lawmakers are striving to get a plan in place by week's end, fearing that delay could send markets reeling.
Elsewhere, central banks in Japan and Australia pumped more cash into their money markets and Australia's financial regulator slapped a ban on short selling to stabilise the stock market.
Two key questions remained unanswered even after Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson appeared on four television talk shows to press his case for emergency action. What price will the United States pay for these bad debts, which have spawned the worst financial storm since the Great Depression? When will it start buying them?
Paulson cast the proposed market intervention as a lesser evil, arguing the consequences of inaction would be so dire that the large burden on taxpayers would be worth it.
Democrats, who control both chambers of Congress, began to swap proposals with the Treasury, including checks on the nearly unfettered power the administration sought for the Treasury secretary.
"Democrats believe a responsible solution should include independent oversight, protections for homeowners and constraints on excessive executive compensation," said California Democratic Rep. Nancy Pelosi, the Speaker of the House of Representatives.

Telangana: History and economy
G Naga Sridhar, Business Line, March 15, 2011
If the Vijayanagara ruler Sri Krishnadevaraya (AD 1509-29), who strived to further the Telugu language and culture, was alive today, he would have jumped into the Hussain Sagar lake in Hyderabad. The reason: He would been thrown into despair at the nihilistic cultural attitude displayed by a section of the pro-Telanagana activists, who destroyed 18 statues (out of 33) of legendary personalities of Telugu land during the 'Million March' on March 10 in support of Telangana State, just because they did not hail from what now is being termed Telangana.
The statues of great saint-composer Annamayya, 19th Century social reformer Kandukuri Veeresalingam and Sir Arthur Cotton (1803-1899), the first British engineer to envisage a complete system of irrigation and canals for India, too faced the same fate. Not that these statues are rare artefacts. They were sculpted and installed just about 25 years ago. But what is alarming is the attitude that refuses to see the distinction between blind jingoism and a sagacious sense of regionalism.
Both Krishnadevaraya and Veeresalingam, for instance, had transgressed the narrow confines of regionalism at a time when the concept of nationalism was different from what it was today. The former, who was the first to open up trade with Europe by partnering with the Portuguese, presided over an empire spanning parts of present-day Karnataka and present Andhra Pradesh. A champion of education and reforms for women, Veeresalingam was a fusion of Bengali, Tamil and Telugu cultures.
Given the sense of history and culture in India, it is quite surprising that an unruly mob could identify the 'nativity' of people who lived in distant past when the definition of country and region were totally different. There could have been some sort of mapping of the targeted statues, the motives behind which need to examined carefully, taking into consideration the rising demand for installation of statues of prominent Telangana personalities on the tank bund.
There is more than a disregard to history and culture. This jingoistic attitude has economic underpinnings too. An ATM of Andhra Bank was also damaged just because there is 'Andhra' in the name.
Going forward, this may have more serious repercussions on the economy of the region. The intellectual leadership of the pro-Telangana agitation must understand that the rhetoric of 'colonial' exploitation of the region from the 'outsiders' and 'drain of wealth' may mislead a common supporter of the cause of Telangana State. If unbridled, the nation could be going back in time by over 250 years when India had no concept of nationhood, at the time of 1857 revolt against the British. India when, like Italy before its unification in the 19th century, was just a geographical expression.
Telangana Rashtra Samithi Chief, K. Chandrasekhara Rao, should have given a thought to his cultural moorings as he took an oath for achieving Telangana before the statue of Potana, a Telugu poet from Telangana, while statues of other great personalities were being pulled down in a frenzy.
It is a different matter, that N.T. Rama Rao, the Telugu Desam Party chief and State Chief Minister, who got the statues erected, did face criticism for the selection of personalities and their number. Definitely, it is neither wise nor feasible to establish a particular group's ownership of a larger culture. If the demand for a separate Telangana is unresolved for too long, there could be bigger problems in future.

Navigating the constantly shifting currents of the world's financial markets is a challenge, even for seasoned investors. Individuals and institutions with limited resources often devote the bulk of their energy to employing new strategies, not to double- and triple-checking the good work they've already done.
Unfortunately, securities fraud rarely announces itself in the light of day. It can take years for a fraudulent activity to be uncovered, with many discoveries coming too late for anything to be done. To increase investors' chances of finding potentially fraudulent activity in a timely fashion, Robbins Geller has developed a proprietary, no-cost portfolio monitoring system that's used by individual and institutional investors around the world.
How Robbins Geller's Portfolio Monitoring Program works
According to Robbins Geller, the Firm's Portfolio Monitoring Program is a "sophisticated, exclusive and secure service for institutional investors … built around proprietary software that is able to provide essential information to track investment losses." The Program is overseen by David C. Walton, a Robbins Geller partner and one of the 35 Robbins Geller attorneys added to the 2015 San Diego Super Lawyers list.
The cost-free Portfolio Monitoring Program is used by hundreds of Robbins Geller clients, collectively covering at least $2 trillion in assets under management. It's important to note that the Program isn't simply an automated "early detection" system or loss-prevention program of the sort used by brokerage houses and fund managers. It's a hands-on, human-directed program that leverages the skills and insight of expert financial attorneys, experienced forensic accountants, data analysts and economists. When unusual activity is detected, the combined efforts of these professionals allows Robbins Geller to rapidly produce a detailed report and pass it along to the affected investor(s), who can then elect to take further action.
The benefits of portfolio monitoring
The benefits of Robbins Geller's Portfolio Monitoring Program are manifold:
- Ironclad data security. Funds, fund managers and individual investors are rightly concerned about the security of sensitive financial and personal data. Robbins Geller makes data security a top priority for Portfolio Monitoring clients. The Firm uses state-of-the-art network security protocols, including private addressing, adaptive security algorithm and a firewalled UNIX operating system. Physical security is no less impressive: Robbins Geller uses redIT, a secure San Diego data center with closed-circuit monitoring, biometric scanner access, cabinet door monitoring and a rapid-response fire extinguishing system.
- Timely, detailed reporting. Robbins Geller advises all Portfolio Monitoring clients to designate a "point person" to converse with its monitoring team, eliminating the risk of duplicate communications or internal conflict. Full forensic loss reports often come within days of the discovery of suspicious activity.
- International reach. If desired, Portfolio Monitoring clients with international exposure can receive a quarterly International Monitoring Report that provides detailed outlines of pending international securities fraud actions and personally alerts recipients invested in at-issue securities.
Robbins Geller: uniquely positioned to pursue securities fraud cases
Robbins Geller is committed to protecting the rights of individual and institutional investors affected by securities fraud. Just as importantly, it's committed to reducing the incidence of securities fraud altogether. The Robbins Geller Portfolio Monitoring Program is a critical part of this effort — and, the Firm hopes, a powerful incentive for publicly traded companies and their officers to play by the rules.

Wedding ceremony and reception should be an interesting event. It should not be too serious because one of your guests' biggest expectations when attending that event is that they can get enough entertainment. Therefore, make your wedding ceremony as recreational as possible so that everyone who attends it will think as if they are enjoying recreation. Choosing a recreational venue as your wedding venue is one of the best ways to make the event entertaining enough. There are many recreational venues that you can choose from, but beach is often the most favorable choice, so think about carrying out your wedding event at a beach.
If you want to use beach to host your wedding ceremony and reception, you should think about all beach wedding decorations that you will use. To choose the best decorations for your event, you have to decide first the theme of that event. There are various themes that are suitable for a beach-side wedding event. For American people, Hawaii often becomes a perfect reference for an ideal beach-side party. Therefore, try to apply Hawaiian feast or luau theme to your event. If you are sure that you want to use this theme, a smart idea about how you will decorate your wedding venue should immediately pop up in your mind. Think about Hawaiian feast and you will mostly think about swaying palm trees, white sand, tiki torches, shell and floral lei, and hula skirts. Combine the decorations that the nature has provided to you with artificial decorations that pop up in your mind to apply luau theme to your wedding event.
Luau theme is a perfect option for a casual and recreational wedding event. If most of your guests are well-heeled people, however, you may need to reduce the casual feature of the event and make it more formal and elegant. Remember that you can still make your wedding event entertaining enough even if you have to use elegant beach wedding decorations for that event. Among decorations that make your beach-side wedding event look elegant are a white tent with air conditioner and a large table covered with white linen. Hire servers wearing tuxedos and your guests' feeling when attending your event will mostly be full of contentment.

"I learned some valuable lessons about the legislative process, the importance of bipartisan cooperation and the wisdom of taking small steps to get a big job done" — Hillary Clinton
As a part of our simulation here at The Washington Center, participants were assigned to represent a member of Congress and their views and values. Our class was then expected to draft a resolution regarding immigration, healthcare, and/or the federal budget while representing our respective member. A daunting task, I know.
After having decided on the general goals of our proposed resolution, we then had to put our thoughts into writing. All the while, considering what our member would want included and how they would react to other inclusions. This became extremely difficult in a variety of ways.
Not only did this force us to separate ourselves from our own political views and biases, we then assumed a completely different set of views that may or may not align with our own. Considering and constructing legislation from a mind that is not your own proved to be no simple task.
For hours, we argued with people we considered our friends. It became harder and harder to see that Senator Rand Paul was actually Austin and Representative Emanuel Clever was Kati. We assumed the roles of these Congress people and fought for and against issues not in our own interest, but in that of our member. We fought back urges of our own agendas and qualified our statements with "Senator Dina Titus would argue" to separate ourselves from the people we were representing.
The process was grueling. Arguing back and forth about what we wanted and what we did not support. Making decisions on what would be truly important to our member and what could be sacrificed in the name of bipartisanship. We tallied and re-tallied votes and considered and debated about how to sway Republican or Democratic members. After hours of debating, we finally came to a bipartisan resolution. The resolution passed with a majority vote within our committee.
As we packed up our belongings, we shrugged off the burdens and views of the member we had become. We tried to forget about the things our friends had said and remember that they were indeed, our friends.
