Public Registry Notice for s.83 Exceptions - 19 Wing Comox
19 Wing Comox
- Defence Establishment:
- 19 Wing Comox
- SARA Competent Department:
- Environment Canada
- Date of Notification:
- January 29, 2013
- Species:
- Sand-verbena moth (Copablepharon fuscum)
- Period for the Exception:
- From this date forward until revoked.
- Area where the Exception Applies:
- Goose Spit Military Training Facility (the facility).
- Activity:
- Canadian military training and operations.
- Military training and operations of NATO and non-NATO allies.
- Non-defence related training and operations related to national security conducted by DND (Department of National Defence) and/or other government organizations.
- Operations directed to ensure that training areas are sustainable for activities related to national defence/security.
- Range training development to meet operational requirements.
- Rationale for the Exception:
- Re-development of Confidence Course – DND will re-develop the Confidence Course for the purpose of de-conflicting military training from the critical habitat in the Central area. Re-development of the Confidence Course will be located outside of critical habitat within the Central area.
- Construct access road through Central Area – DND will construct an access road through the Central area to the Western area for the purpose of redirecting military training activities from the Central to the Western area. The road access is also required for personnel safety and emergency response.
- Maintenance of roads, buildings and grounds – DND must maintain the existing roads, buildings and other infrastructure located in the Eastern and Central areas that are co-located within and adjacent to the critical habitat. The roads, buildings and infrastructure were constructed prior to the protection given the moth under SARA. The infrastructure and grounds must be maintained for function, structural integrity, health and safety, and fire protection. Some examples of maintenance activities that may be performed within or near critical habitat include snow removal from roads and sidewalks, repair of roads and sidewalks, repair to buried utilities, driving vehicles on roads and grounds (e.g., security patrols, emergency response, and delivery of supplies), erecting tents for temporary military accommodation, building maintenance and repair, mowing and maintaining landscapes for security and fire protection, repairing fences, collecting waste materials and debris, demolition of roads and buildings, circulation and movement of military personnel on foot, and other routine facility maintenance activities.
- Construction of new infrastructure – DND must renew the aging utilities and infrastructure at the facility to ensure the requirements for military training and operations are sustained.
- Alternatives Considered:
- Relocating existing, permanent infrastructure is not feasible due to military operational requirements, the spatial limitations at the facility, and the cost to construct new infrastructure. The only realistic alternative is habitat protection by reducing or eliminating, where possible, the potential for impacts on the moth and its critical habitat. Relocating training operations from critical habitat combined with habitat restoration is feasible. Details are included in the following mitigation measures section.
- Mitigation Measures Implemented or to be Implemented:
- Re-development of Confidence Course – Training equipment and pathways within critical habitat will be de-constructed and removed using hand tools and low-impact, tracked equipment during the period from December to March when the moth and plant are inactive and beneath the ground surface. This activity may cause some minor disturbance to the surface soil, but will not have any lasting impacts on the moth or its critical habitat.
- Access road through training range – The alignment of the road was located to create the least amount of impact to the Yellow sand-verbena plant communities. The 6-m wide road and shoulder corridor will directly affect 221 m2 of plant community. The Yellow sand-verbena plants affected by the road development will be recovered and transplanted into adjacent suitable habitat in the Central area during the road construction project. Recovery and transplant techniques will be implemented. Road construction and transplantation activities will occur when the plants and moth are inactive and beneath the ground surface. Critical habitat will be separated from proposed military training and operations. Activities will be increased in areas away from where the moth's critical habitat is concentrated.
- Road, building and grounds maintenance – Critical habitat within 5-metres of existing roads, buildings and other infrastructure will be field marked with signage instructing foot traffic only, when necessary, within the critical habitat. DND will develop policies and procedures to minimize impact to the critical habitat by avoiding damage to the plant communities and scheduling unavoidable damaging activities to coincide in winter months when the plants and moth are inactive and beneath the ground surface. Maintenance activities that may damage the soil within the moth's critical habitat will require an environmental assessment to develop activity-specific mitigation measures.
- Construction of new infrastructure - Demolition and construction of infrastructure will be timed or located to avoid or reduce impacts to the moth or its critical habitat. Any affected plants will be recovered and transplanted during periods when the plants and moth are inactive and beneath the ground surface. Recovery and transplant techniques will be implemented during this mitigation measure.
- Plants recovered from military training and operations described in this notification will be transplanted into suitable habitat within the facility. The outcome will be an increase in the aerial coverage of Yellow sand-verbena plants in three contiguous areas.
"I, the Defence Establishment Commanding Officer, am of the opinion
- That all reasonable alternatives to the activity that would reduce the impact on the species have been considered and the best solution has been adopted; and
- That all feasible measures will be taken to minimize the impact of the activity on the species or its critical habitat or the residences of its individuals".
J.C. Benninger
Defence Establishment Commanding Officer

Thousands of broken iPhones are being smuggled from Western countries into China where they are cannibalised and resold as new devices.
With millions of the handsets in circulation, opportunists in the country are capitalising to make a fast buck.
The dud phones are shipped en masse from Western countries to massive warehouses where armies of technicians strip them down and test which components are still working.
They are then put them back together, polish them so they look brand new, and resell them at market value.
An insider who took the above pictures suggested there is no discernible difference between new models and the cannibalised versions.
"The only way to tell is to open up and look inside and who does that when they buy a new phone?," they said.
"They are carefully polished to make them indistinguishable from new devices."
It is apparently illegal to import iPhones into the country, and they are therefore smuggled in in bulk.
"They even know how to put codes on the iPhones again to make them indistinguishable from the brand-new models," the insider added.
"And it costs a fraction to buy up the parts and build a second hand phone rather than buying a new one, and by selling them as new there was a lot of money to be made."

ESPN Insider is analyzing NBA free agents not named LeBron James (we covered him pretty extensively a few weeks ago, and there's even more coming every day on the LeBron Tracker) to determine what they're really worth to the teams chasing them this summer. To follow the entire series, click here. We continue Tuesday with David Lee.
Even though it comes a year later than he intended, David Lee finally will get his big payday this summer. The 27-year-old failed to land a multiyear contract as a restricted free agent last offseason, but after a season in which he averaged 20 points and 10 rebounds, that might have been a blessing in disguise.

Review of "Essays"
"Euthansia - A Discursive Essay"
The world really is often a strange place. If you see two men fighting on the streets they are thugs, put them in a ring and pay them lots of money and it's a sport. Likewise when your dog's cancer ridden and is in a lot of pain you are advised to put it out of its misery but when it's a human being in the same situation it's illegal. However nothing is ever as easy as it seems and as there is much more to the fighting argument there is also a lot more to Euthanasia.Euthanasia, also known as 'mercy killing', is the intentional killing by act or omission of a dependant human being for his or her benefit. The practice of it is illegal in the United Kingdom and the same applies for most countries in the world. Debate about the morality and legality of voluntary euthanasia is, for the most part, a phenomenon of the second half of the tweentieth century yet little seems to change. Personally, I am in favour of legalisng some acts of euthanasia law. Why?
Those who are terminally ill may feel strongly that their own life is no longer worth living because of intractable pain. If this is the case then why is it illegal for their wishes of a peaceful death to be met? If they persistently and actively ask for help in dying there should be, in my opinion, a law that allows them to do so. A heart transplant surgeon, Dr Christian Barnard once said of the matter,
"I have never seen any nobility in a patient's thrashing around all night in a sweat-soaked bed, trying to escape from the pain that torments him day and night...To my mind, when terminally ill patients have reached this stage, the best medical treatment is death."
If someone has an illness or accident rendering them incapable, which may leave one without even the basic control of their own bodily functions then they should be ensured death with dignity. If they are not happy with their lives (and cannot be helped in any other suitable way) then their wish for death should be fulfilled. Does the state have the right to deprive them of this?
The 1961 Suicide Act Section 2.1 states, "A person who aids, abets, counsels or procures the suicide of another, or an attempt by another to commit suicide, shall be liable on conviction to imprisonment for a term not exceeding 14 years." Diane Pretty will be unable to take her own life and because of this she has taken the matter to courts, stating that her rights under the European Convention for Human Rights have been violated. She believes that she will be subjected by our domestic law to "inhumane and degrading treatment."I feel that Diane Pretty has a very strong argument. This person is of sound mind but because she is suffering from chronic want (she has physical limitations) is not able to exercise the option of what to do with her life, so she is hence discriminated against due to her disability. This clearly shows that human rights for people in this particular situation are not expressed effieciently in society today. What would be the right thing to do with an aging,beloved family pet facing a distressful death? With animals it is still sad, but so much easier. One would take it to the vets, despite the tears they would shed. You would wish a death with dignity. I think Diane Petty deserves the same, if not greater dignity in her death than any family pet, if that is her choice. It seems tritr comparing this situation to having an animal put down, but that is the way I see it. Anyone keeping an animal in the same conditions as Diane Pretty would have been prosecuted for cruelty - yet the law states that euthanasia is wrong. Animals have no way of communicating their desires, however, each has dies in its own home, following their favourite meal, with someone they love close at hand, comforting them till it is all over. In short, they died with dignity, in aloving atmosphere. The atcual end was quick and painless. One can think of worse ways to die. It is estimated that around 5000 people have MND in the UK alone, all destined to a similar path of deganerative illness as Diane Pretty. When one takes into account that MND is just one of the scores of terrible, progressive terminal diseases around today then one will realise just how many peoples's choices are affected by our law.
Obviously, I recognise that the practice of euthanasia is open to abuse. Greed for an inheritance, an old person suffering from dementia - the cruel could use any of these factors or more to justify euthanasia. Therefore I realise it is not an issue to be taken lightly but I am still very much in favour of it. Why? Because should terminally ill patients be refused choice and freedom because of a few opportunists who may wish to abuse new laws? I believe the state should introduce 'living wills' which would determines ones life and protects you and your family in any of these circumstances including mentally debilitating diseases such as Alzheimers etc. This is supported by the 'Will to live project' who say this legal document would be signed with the name of the person one wants to make health care decisions for them if you develop any condition making you incompetent and also makes clear your wishes to that person. I feel this idea is suitable as the the wishes of the victims would be respected and this legalislative framework would ensure it was carried out.There is only two places in the world that currently permit euthanasia, those being the Netherlands, who were first to legalise it, and the state of Ohio in the United States of America. This is surely progress. As medicine slowly gains success in the ability to prolong life we will all begin to have to make decisions about at what point prolonging life ceases to become a benefit and starts to become an unwanted burden. To me this is a highly personal decision, one for each individual to make for themselves. Although the option of the ability of euthanasia should be there for all to use not just people from certain countries. I feel this is too much of 'playing with peoples lives'. How can something so important in society today be right in one place in the world but wrong in another? It doesn't make sense. Everyone is entitled to the same treatment, not alienated because of where they live in the world.
Why is legalising euthanasia not happening you may ask? Is there not enough support for the cause? It exactly the opposite. A national opinion poll, in April 1993, showed that 81% of Scots agree with the aims of the 'Scottish Voluntary Euthanasia Society'. Its aim is made clear by the director of the Scottish Voluntary Euthanasia group, Chris Docker,
"Everyone of us has an interest in our own death: a change in law would increase our options."
A recent phone-in after a TV programme gave a figure of 93% in agreement, from a total of 23,000 calls. A survey published in the British Medical Journal in 1994 showed that a considerable number of doctors are already acceding to requests for active voluntary euthanasia and many more doctors feel that a change in the law is overdue. Surely if people of such a high profession who day in day out deal with life and death feel this way then something should be happening. So why is nothing happening? Simple opposition from the government.
"considered as a rejection of God's sovereignty and loving plan."
This is an important belief for a member of one of these religious groups. They also say that it is more compassionate to care for the dying than to speed up death. Euthanasia for opponents represents the ultimate 'hand-washing' exercise by a society that would rather kill than care.
However, I maintain that people who want an early peaceful death for themselves or their relatives, personally, are not rejecting the sanctitiy of life. I agree with the popular argument that life should be cherished but I think life is a gift with a heavy price for millions of people arund the world and that sometimes the gift runs out leaving nothing more than an evil filled with pain and distress. God wants people to have quality of life, therefore if someone has no quality of life euthanasia should be acceptable. God is love. Likewise stopping suffering is a loving thing to do, so euthanasia could bring more glory to God than keeping a suffering person alive against their wishes. Most importantlt, people have been given free will by God which means we should be able to lead our own lives our own way, learning as we go along.However, the reason I feel very strong about this is that I have experienced a first hand exprience thats important to this issue. My mother had a terminally ill cancer resulting in her suffering excruciating pain that lasted for months and she died in hospital when she had desperately wanted to be allowed home to be with her family. When she was alive she I used to hear her cry out in pain at night. She never asked but if she had asked in help in killing herself I know I would have a very difficult situation on my hands and probably be in the same situation as Diane and Brian Pretty.
No matter how meticulous you plan your life nothing can prepare you for the cruel and seemingly indiscriminate blow of terminal disease. Personally I don't think we should make it worse than it needs to be.

dollydancer published 08/05/2008Excellent review. You make very good points. It is such a debatable subject but I agree with the points you have made. I don't think people should have to suffer, especially if they are in a situation where illness is going to drag them to a slow and painful death. A very interesting read X
teresacrew published 07/09/2005Excellent!!! Especially because you used legal source to back up your arguement. Are you studying law?. Tre x

The energy sector within the S&P has just broken out above previous resistance, and the technical setup suggests that it now provides a decent trading opportunity with a defined exit point should the trade fail to work out.
The chart below shows the price action of the energy sector ETF (XLE) over the past three months. Having failed to break above overhead resistance at around $79.90 on several occasions, the price then fell to a low of $73.51 on 17 April.
Since the April low however, the fund which includes companies such as Exxon Mobil, Chevron, Schlumberger and Conocophillips, has begun to form a nice uptrend channel with multiple touch points. Having broken above what was resistance at $79.90 the fund came back down to retest this level which then became support.
A 3 month (2 hour) chart of Energy Select Sector ETF (XLE) (Click on the chart for a larger version)

The positive short-term trend has just been confirmed by the crossing of the 9-day EMA back above the 20-day SMA, and the longer-term trend is also positive (both circled).
All the time the lower blue trend line provides support the XLE fund provides a decent potential trade, and the green horizontal support line at around $79.80 provides an ideal initial level for a stop loss.

Yes, hook and loop is just Velcro. You'll also see it called aplix. I have different preferences for different stages. Velcro is easier and quicker to adjust, making it great for the really little babies when you're doing diaper changes in the dark at night, and I also like it for squirmy babies because you can slap it on really quickly. Snaps, however, tend to hold up better and are harder for babies to remove. We have a mix of both and I don't really have a strong preference anymore because DD is usually pretty good about letting us change her. The Velcro (we have thirsties) look a little ratty after 2+ years of use but they still hold really well.

The natural appearance and elegance of timber cannot be replicated by any other material, making it a favourite choice amongst homeowners. The beautiful craftmanship of our timber shutters for sale ensures that they fit seamlessly with any décor – they can also be stained or painted in the colour of your choice to ensure that they work in your home. Installed on the inside of your home, wood shutters will provide you with maximum light and privacy control.
The great thing about wooden window shutters is that they can be used in every room of the home. They are the perfect complement for casual living spaces, a sophisticated addition to those more formal areas, treated for suitability in wet areas like the bathroom, able to withstand the demands of the kitchen, and make our bedrooms feel as cosy as possible. This ensures that you can achieve a sense of continuity across your whole home.
Once you've gone to the effort of having external timber shutters for windows installed, you'll want to ensure that they continue to look their best. It is recommended that you don't use any chemical cleaners on them, as they can actually damage the surface. Instead, give them a regular dust using a microfibre cloth. If the slats have become coated with thick dirt, this can be removed with a damp cloth – ensure that it's not sopping wet and not soapy!
Our timber shutters are all crafted from high quality plantation hardwood that has been kiln dried and moisture tested to avoid movement in the timber. Quality timber finishing machines and water wall paint technology ensures we supply you with the very best quality at an affordable price.
We offer a large range of frame sizes and designs as well as various blade sizes and shapes. We stock a huge range of paint and stain finishes that cover most decors but if your looking for something unique we can custom colour to your liking on any painted timber shutter.
Timber is one of our most versatile renewable and natural resources. Younger trees have the ability to store more carbon which assists in reducing the large amount of carbon dioxide released into our atmosphere caused by manufacturing other building products. Sustainably farmed timber is important for maintaining a clean environment and one of the best ways to address climate change.
Installing shutters is not the same as installing blinds and curtains. At Energy Window Fashions we only employ trade qualified installers to install shutters as they have been trained the correct way to hang doors and frames.
Not easily, but timber being a natural product can warp. We use quality hardwood that has been kiln dried to reduce the moisture content, correct milling techniques and quality finishing systems to avoid warping. Should your shutter get chipped it can be easily touched up, this can mainly be done on real timber and not MDF and PVC shutters.
Shutters and the perfect solution for a young family, they are not only strong and long wearing, they are completely child safe as they have no cords.
It takes time to craft quality, for that reason from order it takes approximately 6 – 8 week from the time you place your order to installation.
We are proud to offer timber shutters to Melbourne and surrounds, including: Brighton, Burwood, Cranbourne, Doncaster, Carnegie, Knoxfield, Mentone, Kew, Toorak, Mount Waverley, Vermont and the Mornington Peninsula.
"I am writing to thank you all for your work on installing my new Visiontex blinds and timber shutters. It was such a trying day last Thursday, and you all worked so hard in difficult conditions.
I am sitting in the lounge room without the air conditioner on, as there is no need for it. Earlier today, when I demonstrated the operation of the shade blind for that room, the increase in room temperature when it was up was immediately noticeable. As soon as the sun hits the glass, the temperature changes.
I was (and am) impressed with the obviously detailed work that was done at the factory so that all the parts of the blinds and shutters fitted together so accurately on site." – Margaret

You are never too young to start learning to save money and invest it wisely. If more people learned these skills at an early age, there would not be the large amount of people in difficult financial situations as they grow older. Unfortunately, young people and college students are not always surrounded by adults who can effectively mentor them when it comes to financial matters. These young people are left to fend for themselves, learning as they go, and sometimes - learning the hard way.
California State University, Sacramento is one of the colleges on my daughter's list of possible schools to attend. She received her acceptance letter a few weeks ago. If she decides on this school, I will stress the importance that she and anyone else in the area should learn money management and the importance of buying insurance in Sacramento even more. Bills are going to be a fairly new thing for her, and it's important that she budgets and takes into account all of the necessities, like insurance, because it's not always something we think about right away - especially if it hasn't been an expense in the past, but now will be.
Being young and newly independent can be exciting, but young adults need to know that money matters are very important. Below are three more tips for college money management.
1. Student Loans: Remember that you have to pay them back!
Attending college is costly. Students should apply for as many scholarships as possible. People say it's "free money," but really, it is money earned by way of an application process and writing essays. However, scholarship money IS money that does not need to be paid back. Every little bit helps, and scholarships are a great way to help pay for college costs.
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) due date is always March 2nd for the state of California. My daughter and I went to a Financial Aid Info Night at her school about a month ago, where we submitted the online application, and she was entered for a scholarship giveaway. (That's right, all we had to do was attend the event, and she was entered. We're still crossing our fingers!) This application counts for both state and federal funds, for grants (which do not have to be paid back) and student loans.
If planning to go to a four year institution, student loans are probably going to be needed. Students should have a goal to borrow as little as possible, because this money will have to be paid back. This is why scholarships, grants, and spending money wisely are so important.
Paying off student loans is the primary financial burden for many young people. It is critical to pay these off as quickly as possible in order to gain financial stability. If possible, pay more than the minimum payment allowed. If you only pay the minimum, you will end up paying an enormous amount in interest. Why give so much money to your lender? Make paying off your student loans your number one priority.
2. Do not use credit cards, unless in an emergency.
It is common on many college campuses for credit card companies to set up booths in an attempt to attract students to apply for their cards, many times offering incentives for signing up - a free t-shirt, or something else. This is usually as easy as taking candy from a baby. These students, on their own for the first time in their lives, can be very naive and impressionable when it comes to the world of finances. They have been supported by their parents all their lives. Therefore, they are not aware of the dangers of credit card abuse and the devastating effect it can have on the rest of your life.
One credit card is OK to use if you are caught in an emergency situation without any cash. You certainly do not need more than one! If you do buy something with a credit card, pay the entire balance immediately to avoid any interest being added to your total. If you must make monthly payments, pay the maximum amount that your budget can handle. Paying off the credit card needs to be a priority. Having good credit is important.
3. Avoid frivolous purchases.
When you are young, it is OK to enjoy yourself every once in a while.
However, you should also be concerned about the future. It's so easy to live in the moment, but try to avoid spending money on foolish items that you might not want and are never going to use, or that you know you can't afford. Do you really need that new outfit? Probably not. Make smaller purchases over a period of time instead of splurging on a shopping spree all at once.
Budget your money wisely and focus on saving at least one-third of any money you earn. Developing this type of discipline when it comes to money will benefit you greatly in years to come. It becomes a habit, a good one, that you will be thankful for later.
Those are just a few quick tips for money matters in college.
What financial advice would you give to a college student on his/her own for the first time?

GM hit with $35 million fine — Some say that's far from enough — Congress poised to pass WRRDA — Obama's Shake Shack infrastructure chat
Featuring Kevin Robillard and Kathryn A. Wolfe
DOT HITS GM WITH $35 MILLION FINE: The department levied a $35 million fine on General Motors — the maximum allowed under current law — for its delayed response to ignition programs that are tied to accidents that have claimed 13 lives. The fine comes as the DOT, DOJ and congressional committees are all looking into the automaker's actions over the past years as it learned more about the faulty vehicles. And those investigations aren't stopping; House Energy and Commerce leaders announced that their probe is "far from over." The $35 million fine for GM pales in comparison to the $1.2 billion that Toyota settled for in the sudden acceleration case a few months ago. Kevin and Kathryn have more in their story ( http://politico.pro/1jWSxNl) or get it straight from the DOT release ( http://1.usa.gov/1jsWHxe).
Story Continued Below
Not enough: The $35 million isn't near enough, many quickly said. Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx, for example, noted that the administration's GROW AMERICA Act proposal would boost the maximum civil fine from $35 to $300 million. Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal said he's working on a bill to let remove the cap altogether, letting NHTSA fine automakers whatever it wants. The vocal safety advocate called the $35 million a "mockery of justice" and "less than a slap on the wrist, it's a tap on the back of the hand." Sen. Claire McCaskill, who chairs the Commerce panel investigating GM, also seems to be on board: "Congress must consider raising or eliminating the cap on civil penalties when automakers put lives at risk," she said in part of a longer statement.
But change is tough: Kevin reports for Pros: "At a press conference to announce the fine, Transportation Secretary Anthony Foxx admitted $35 million is chump change for GM. He is asking Congress to raise the maximum fine to $300 million as part of a broad transportation bill. But whether that will be too heavy a lift — as it has been in the past — remains to be seen. Safety advocates have tried repeatedly to raise the cap on NHTSA's penalties but have typically failed in the face of lobbying from auto interests. When MAP-21 was drafted in the Senate, language was included to raise the cap on penalties, but it didn't make the final bill." http://politico.pro/1n7FHil
Barra's statement: "We have learned a great deal from this recall. We will now focus on the goal of becoming an industry leader in safety," GM CEO Mary Barra said in a statement. "We will emerge from this situation a stronger company."
As if all that's not enough: The automaker's legal department is the subject of an internal investigation over its handling of the recent troubles, the New York Times reports. http://nyti.ms/1hW7Sco
Foxx out front: Reuters make a simple observation in its headline: "Obama's transportation chief Foxx takes on increasingly visible role." Story: http://trib.in/1jsYxOu
WORDPLAY: "GM told engineers to avoid using dozens of words when communicating about vehicle problems that could potentially lead to recalls, including everything from 'safety' to 'Kevorkianesque.' A PowerPoint presentation included in the company's consent agreement with NHTSA unveiled Friday shows the nation's largest automaker told engineers to avoid terms both absurd and mundane for fear of emails leaking to the media or regulators. The presentation, given in the first quarter of 2008, was meant to teach engineers to use sparing, non-emotional language to describe problems that could potentially lead to auto recalls." Kevin has the story: http://politico.pro/1iZW7kJ
IT'S MONDAY, MAY 19. Thanks for reading POLITICO's Morning Transportation, your daily tipsheet on trains, planes, automobiles and ports, where on this day in 1992, the 27th amendment to the Constitution went into effect, banning Congress from giving itself mid-term pay raises. I like tips, news, cheers and jeers: email@example.com. There's more on Twitter: @ AdamKSnider and @ POLITICOPro.

THE WEEK AHEAD — Today: The House votes, under suspension of the rules, on a bill ( http://1.usa.gov/1qNLuev) ensuring that current truck weight limits on a stretch of U.S. Route 78 in Mississippi are maintained if it becomes an Interstate.
Tuesday: The House is set to vote on a long-awaited WRRDA conference report that could be one of the last big bills that gets a bipartisan vote from Congress in a heated election year. The vote comes on the same day House T&I Chairman Bill Shuster faces two long-shot challenges in Pennsylvania's Republican primary. The water bill has won nearly-unanimous praise, but there are a few detractors. Heritage had this to say in its early take on the final bill: "The conference report makes small progress by encouraging more efficient project study and approval at the Corps and more involvement by the private sector and non-federal entities. However, it fails to address the root problems of poor prioritization, outdated analysis, and a sprawling mission, which plague the Corps."
Wednesday: The House Appropriations Committee marks up a THUD bill that cuts Amtrak, the TIGER program and a number of other accounts that Democrats support. Expect plenty of amendments — the subcommittee held off on changes, but that's only because it's tradition. They won't be so kind this time around. And over at the Brookings Institution, there's a talk on the government's involvement in the auto industry, featuring Chrysler leader Sergio Marchionne and former National Economic Council head Larry Summers.
Thursday: A Senate Banking subcommittee holds a hearing on bringing transit infrastructure to a state of good repair. With the EPW Committee having introduced and easily approved a six-year transportation bill last week, the pressure is on other panels to get their part done, so expect there to be plenty of reauthorization talk at Thursday's hearing. Banking controls the transit part of the bill, with Commerce and Finance in charge of other parts.
BURGERS FOR BRIDGES: President Barack Obama used a trip to Shake Shack to continue talking about the need for Congress to pass a transportation bill. A sample of his short comments at the burger joint's NoMa location: "One of the things that we could do right now to put more Americans back to work is to fund our transportation more effectively and more consistently. … So it is a no-brainer for Congress to do what it's supposed to do: Pass transportation funding." He ended in a way you don't see many transportation speeches finish: "This shouldn't be Democrat or Republican. This is American. We've got to rebuild America. And these are folks who are doing it. So thank you very much, everybody. Enjoy your burgers if you guys are buying them." Obama's weekly address also mentions infrastructure: http://1.usa.gov/1gf0Kwg
INVESTIGATORS PROBING MIDAIR NEAR-MISS: The FAA and NTSB have sent personnel to Hawaii to investigate an incident in April where two airliners flew too close to one another. According to the two regulators, a United Airlines plane was flying from Los Angeles to Kona when it received an alert from its Traffic Collision Avoidance System, which is intended to help prevent mid-air collisions. The alert was triggered by a US Airways plane en route from Phoenix to Maui that was flying too close. The United plane responded to its alert, which was received over the Pacific about 200 miles northeast of Kona. The FAA said a joint FAA-NTSB team was expected to arrive today at the Honolulu Control Facility, which had control of both planes at the time of the incident.

As a business owner, you may take all legitimate business expenses as tax deductions, to reduce your business tax. But some business tax deductions are easier to figure out than others.

For example, taking a deduction for the cost of supplies is pretty straightforward, and deducting, and interest on business purchases is pretty easy to calculate.

Some Tricky Business Tax Expenses to Deduct

But for other business expenses, it's not easy to figure out what's deductible and what's not. Hence, this list of 7 business expenses that you should be cautious about taking. This is not to say that they are not legitimate business expenses, but these expenses are on this list because the deduction might be limited, or an audit trigger, or just complicated to calculate.

Proving Deductions for Business Expenses

First, a general caveat for business owners: The most common way the IRS gets business tax payers at audit is for not having the documents to prove deductions. Make sure you have the business records you need.

Here's the list of business tax deductions to take with caution:

1. Business Driving Expenses

Deducting expenses for use of your car or a company car for business driving is both complicated and an audit red flag.

First, to deduct expenses for business use of your car, you must drive at least 50% of the time for business purposes. Then, you MUST be able to show excellent at-the-time records to prove the business purpose for all business driving expenses, whether you take the standard mileage expenses or actual expenses.

2. Home Business Space Deductions

The IRS looks carefully at attempts to claim a deduction for a home business space. In particular, the IRS wants to be sure the space is being used ONLY for business purposes. Even a once-a-year personal use can negate the deduction. Second, be careful to deduct only the actual amount of space used for the business and make sure you have nothing personal in that space. The IRS can come to your home and check.

3. Employee Gifts, Bonuses, and Awards

This one sounds like a no-brainer - all types of employee gifts, awards, and bonuses should be deductible to you - rewarding employees is certainly an allowable business expense. But there are limits on some of these items (gifts, for example, must be small), and you also have to consider that some of these (bonuses, for example) are taxable to the employee. Lots of things to think about before you run out and buy something for employees.

4. Dues to Clubs and Organizations

Business owners should be able to join clubs to network and for interaction with other businesses in similar professions. But not all club dues are deductible - forget the golf club, for example, even if you do business while you're on the course. And some club dues and expenses are strictly forbidden, like political organizations.

5. Business Travel Expenses

Like expenses for business driving, business travel expenses are both limited in amount and restricted. Can you deduct the cost of taking your spouse on a business trip? It depends on several factors. Can you deduct the cost of travel from home? What about travel overseas? Yes, it's complicated.

6. Meals and Entertainment

It's been a long time since meals and entertainment expenses were completely deductible. Now, you are limited to 50% of allowable expenses. And what about entertainment for promotional purposes? (That happens to be deductible, if you can figure out what "promotional" means). And some entertainment expenses are deductible, while some are not.

7. Depreciation on Business Assets

This is probably the most complicated business tax deduction. The laws keep changing and limits and restrictions on accelerated depreciation change each year. Now, as a result of the PATH Act of 2015, the amounts for Section 179 deductions and bonus depreciation have somewhat stabilized. That means you and your tax professional can do some tax planning. But you'll need the help of someone who is familiar with the details of depreciation; it's tricky, believe me.

8. Donations to Charity

Corporations can deduct donations to charities. For all other business types, charitable donations are deductible only through your personal tax return.

9 . Purchase of a Computer

Computers are legitimate business purchases but they have two issues: (1) A laptop computer is considered as listed property, and you must keep good records to justify business use. (2) A computer is also considered a capital asset and its cost may be depreciated over time. A portion of the cost may be deducted each year.

The Dissolution Of The Manasteries Essay Research
The Dissolution Of The Manasteries Essay, Research Paper
Background to the Dissolution
The Dissolution of the Monasteries and the events which followed, were all brought about as a direct result of the break with Rome. The reason for the break, lies simply in Henry?s frustration at his inability to secure a divorce form his wife Catherine of Aragon, and a blessing from the Pope for his new marriage to Anne Boleyn, although arguably, there was a need for reformation within the church.
Prior to the break with Rome, the church was rife with pluralism, simony (one of the pope?s main failings) and breaches of the vows of celibacy. It is therefore clear that there were problems with the English church prior to the break, but although it was unpopular, many people including Henry remained Catholic:
?A firm Catholic, he was keen to have papal approval, and the more unlikely this became, the more he was forced to question the Pope?s jurisdiction in England? [2]
To accomplish a break, Henry needed some kind of justification, and he would also have to ensure that in implementing the break itself, he was not seen as supporting heresy and the Protestant reformation in particular. With the aid of advisor Thomas Cromwell, Henry aims to enact the break with Rome using statute authority; that of the king, lords and commons acting through parliament.
?A sequence of truly revolutionary acts of parliament now cut the bonds ? spiritual, legal, financial ? which linked the English church and state to Rome? [3]
There were several main landmarks in the break with Rome, the first of which was the act in restraint of appeals. This was a justification and definition of royal supremacy, and was grafted by Thomas Cromwell. It was the act of supremacy in 1534 however, that would prove to be Henrys greatest step forward in the break. It confirmed Henry?s headship of the church and explicitly reserved the crown the rights to the organizing and jurisdictional powers formerly held by the Papacy. By this, the crown would control the right o define the church?s teachings and doctrinal decisions, ultimately resulting in the downfall of the monasteries.
As a result of Henry?s pressure on the English clergy in his attempts to convince the Pope to grant a divorce, the dissolution of the monasteries became an important and necessary task. By removing the Pope?s most loyal supporters from England, Henry was severely limiting his power.
In 1533, in stead of Anne Boleyn?s impending pregnancy, Thomas Cranmer, an archbishop, declared Henry?s marriage to Catherine invalid, (?the king must stop living in this sin with this woman who is not his wife? [4]) and married him to Anne Boleyn. ?The Act of Supremacy? then, established Henry as head of the Church of England, and marked the end of the Pope?s influence in his realm. Threatened by the Pope with excommunication, if he did not take Catherine back, all hopes of reconciliation with Rome were passed. Henry?s reformation was moving quickly.When henry VIII first initiated the dissolution of the Monasteries, he was facing criticism from various sides. It must be understood that in deciding the validity of Henry?s claims for the dissolution, there are two sides to the argument.
Protestant supporters of Henry?s actions, argue that after the 1530?s, all the monasteries were corrupt and a place where sinners lived in a luxury paid for by others. The reasons for monastic life they claimed, were based on a lie created by the Papacy, to strengthen its own position: In order to lessen the time a person spends in purgatory when they die, money must be donated to the church in order to save their soul.
As a result of these false and morally corrupt claims on behalf of the Papacy, Protestants argued that the monasteries deserved to be dissolved, as the money they survived upon was gained under false pretences.
Another factor that supports Henry?s argument for the dissolution, were the results found from the ?valor ecclesiasticus?. Within this, it was discovered that on average, one quarter of a monastic houses wealth went to the head of the house, usually an absentee leader, living their life as a country gentleman, free form responsibility.
Revelations such as this obviously angered the public, but whether or not Henry was angered in the same way, or merely saw these factors as further support for his claims to dissolve the monasteries is debatable. It is true that there was a certain element of corruption present, with immorality, sexual perversion and homosexual practices all being admitted to by hundreds of monks. But surely, all these factors point to a need for reform rather than dissolution.
The above evidence alone does not present a clear picture of the real situation of the monasteries in England, that is certain. It is now known that only ten percent of the monastic houses in England were subject to corruption, and that the majority followed their monastic ideals and way of life unfailingly, greatly supported by the public, and therefore laying waste to Henry?s claims that the monasteries were no longer regarded as places of worship, but of sin, carnal and abominable.
Monasteries generally functioned well, and there is an air of hypocrisy about these claims, if we consider that Thomas Cromwell himself gained wealth at the monasteries' expense wherever possible. Cromwell accepted various ?gifts? from the smaller monastic houses, in return for supporting their appeals against the new legislation?s, an act which he neither intended to carry out nor dwell upon.
It is clear then that following his promise to the King to make him and the crown wealthy and lucrative once more, Cromwell decided that the closure of the monasteries was where he would achieve this proposed wealth. By legally closing the monasteries, this ?theft? would make the King wealthy beyond his wildest dreams. If we consider then, that Henry?s motives were almost entirely based on his wish for wealth, and without which his proposed dissolution would never have taken place, the validity of his claims is somewhat reduced.
Henry VIII?s reasons for he dissolution of the monasteries therefore, were not at all justified in the way he had claimed. He sought only wealth, and it is this desire to gain control and achieve the riches that came with it which motivated Henry. His greed and the falsity of his many claims against the monasteries succeeds in revealing his real wishes, and nullifies any previous arguments based on his religious concerns for the dissolution.

BBC: "Redcar coastal defence work 'on track'"
Work on the £30 million Redcar coastal defences is on schedule as it reaches the halfway point, officials said.
The Environment Agency, in partnership with Redcar and Cleveland Council, is now starting to raise sections of the promenade behind the new defences.
The defences, which are being built at the Stray, are designed to protect against flooding as well as coastal erosion.
After Easter, construction work will start around the Stray paddling pool.
Work to build the new defences opposite Granville Terrace can now begin after planning permission has been granted.
The defences at Redcar, which started in January, are expected to be complete in Spring 2013 and aims to reduce the risk of flooding to 1,000 properties in Redcar.
The wall will stretch from Coatham to the eastern end of the Stray, and is intended to reduce coastal erosion and flood risk for the next 100 years.

I happened across a SteriPEN product at Costco a while back, and picked it up for inclusion in a kit. If I remember correctly, it was about $45. Checked the price at other outlets on my phone, and felt good about the purchase. Being able to hold one and check it out before forking over the cash was a nice touch. The packaging allow me to study it rather well. I liked that it came with a BPA-free 1 liter

Comments about Suncast 120 Gallon Hybrid Deck Box 24-1/4 in. H x 27-1/4 in. D x 54-1/8 in. W (WRDB12000):
Looks good but not an easy assembly. You may want to pay to have it done? Get things going the wrong direction and it will need to come apart. Screws then will barely grab so get it right the first time. Interior is a little more difficult to load with larger/wider items than the regular plastic ones because of the two "strut-like" hinges. Wouldn't recommend moving it while full. Only time will tell how it will hold up exposed to the elements. Needs to be finished or oiled annually.

Miss Marie Lloyd – Queen of the Music Hall
by Calliope
In February 2007, Richard Armitage began filming a one-off drama for the BBC about the life of Marie Lloyd, the 'Queen of the Music Halls'.
Donning period costume once again, Richard portrayed Percy Courtenay, first husband to Marie, and joined Jessie Wallace in the starring role as they recreated the Edwardian era.
The music halls of the 1870's, when Marie was born, had evolved from the tavern's and coffee houses of eighteenth century London, where men used to congregate to eat, drink and discuss business. Entertainment would be laid on which proved extremely popular, and in 1852, the first purpose built music hall appeared called the Canterbury Tavern, in Lambeth, London.
It could accommodate 700, and, as people sat at tables being served throughout the evening, a stage was raised at one end of the hall for the entertainment.
Women were encouraged to attend in the hopes that it would improve the behaviour of the men, and to that end, Ladies' Thursdays were created, whereby women were allowed to be escorted by a gentleman on that night. Unfortunately, wives were not necessarily taken, and before long ladies of 'easy virtue' were to be seen strolling down the aisles peddling for customers, which gave the halls an unsavory reputation.
Despite this, by 1875 there were 375 music halls in greater London alone, and by then it had become more common for women to perform.
Marie Lloyd was born on 12th February 1870, the eldest of 9 children, and christened Matilda Alice Victoria Wood. Her father, John, who worked part-time as a waiter in the nearby Royal Eagle Tavern, encouraged her interest in the theatre and by her teenage years she had formed a group with her sisters and friends called 'The Fairy Bell Minstrels. Ironically, considering her later career, the Fairy Bells used to tour the local mission halls with a programme on the evils of drink!
From this early beginning, she announced that she was going on the stage and it is likely her father helped with her first unpaid appearance at 'The Grecian'. Labeling herself Bella Delamare, she only sang 2 songs, but it was the start of her music hall career.
Changing her name to Marie Lloyd to be more 'classy', she had her first hit song with 'The Boy I Love Is Up In The Gallery', a number she 'borrowed' from Nelly Power.
Not long after, Marie met Percy Courtenay, whom she married in 1887. Though the marriage certificate claimed she was 18, she was only 17 and Percy was 25.
Percy did not have a regular job and seems to have spent most of his time at the race tracks acting as a tout. They lived in style in Lewisham, and had a baby daughter named after her mother, but the marriage was not a happy one. Percy's drinking and abuse were too much and by 1893, they were living apart.
Percy made such a nuisance of himself during the separation, causing trouble and threats, that she issued a warrant against him saying she was in fear of her life. The courts found against him and the marriage ended in divorce in 1905.
Marie's career continued to go from strength-to-strength; she was happiest when she could play to an audience.
Eventually though, her 'saucy' songs and vulgar innuendo were reported so much in the press that a public protest was made against her and she had to appear before the Vigilance Committee. However, she sang to them with such innocence, and without the usual 'nods and winks,' that the Music Halls were granted the license renewals which had been held in the balance over the issue.
After visiting South Africa and America, she returned to England and fell in love with singer Alec Hurley, living with him until her divorce from Percy and marrying Alec in 1906. They toured Australia, appearing together very successfully.
The Music Hall Strike of 1907, prompted by the smaller artists whose contracts were changed and required them to perform more for no extra pay, saw Marie's generosity towards those less fortunate. She supported them and contributed generously, which helped the success of the strike.
However, the Music Hall Managers did not forget her part and took their revenge later.
In 1910, Marie met the Irish jockey, Bernard Dillon and fell madly in love. He was 22 to her 40, and she left Alec to live with him.
The Managers of the Music Halls settled the scores with Marie in 1912. The first Royal Command Performance was to be held dedicated to the Music Hall, and when the list of chosen artists appeared, Marie's name was not on it. The Queen of the Music Hall was not even invited to the finale for the walk on.
Deeply upset by the snub, she defiantly staged her own show on the same day at the London Pavilion, with printed strips stuck on the posters saying "Every Performance by Marie Lloyd is a Command Performance" and "By Order of the British Public".
Whilst touring America, Alec Hurley died. Marie then married Bernard Dillon in Portland, Oregon in 1914. On this occasion she took 7 years off her age, claiming to be 37 to Dillon's 29.
She came back home to a huge welcome, working tirelessly during the First World War.
Sadly, as history repeated itself, Dillon began drinking heavily and mistreating Marie until eventually they separated.
Marie, who had also taken to drink, deteriorated from this point. In October 1922, she staggered around and collapsed on stage during her performance. The audience, thinking it was part of the act, laughed at her supposed antics.
Sadly, that was her last appearance and she died 3 days later on October 7th.
Mari Lloyd's funeral on October 12th was attended by over 100,000 people, a remarkable tribute to the Queen of the Music Hall. In the funeral procession there were 12 cars full of flowers and on top of the hearse was the long ebony cane with the sparkling top hat that she had used in her act.
Marie Lloyd was buried in Hampstead Cemetery, Fortune Green Road.
