Description 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a filter structure. More specifically, the present invention discloses a filter structure that can be applied to a flashlight and filters that can be changed as needed. 2. Description of the Prior Art The light of a common flashlight is white. Although white light is used for night illumination, it is not suitable for some other special illumination. For example, white light, when used at night, can easily be spotted. Therefore, a filter that can alter the color of illumination is needed. If a filter is placed on the top of the light source, and if the filter is red, the light coming out of the flashlight is red. Red light would be suitable for night illumination, so that the user cannot be easily spotted. However, the visibility provided by red light is poor. Visibility could be improved, if blue light is applied. Thus, filters can provide many functions to a flashlight. However, it would be inconvenient if the user had to change the filter when a different situation occurred. Therefore, how to solve the problems mentioned above is of concern. Due to the inconvenience and trouble of existing products, a new generation of flashlight is needed which is provided with a changeable filter structure. To achieve these and other advantages and in order to overcome the disadvantages of the conventional method in accordance with the purpose of the invention as embodied and broadly described herein, the present invention provides a flashlight with changeable filter structure. A plurality of filters is provided for different purposes and the process of changing filters is made more flexible and easier. An object of the present invention is to provide a flashlight with changeable filters, in order to provide filters of different colors to suit different conditions, as well as saving the trouble of carrying many individual filters. In order to achieve the purposes mentioned above, the present invention comprises a cylindrical inner casing, and a cylindrical filter base, which is screwed onto the inner casing. The filter base comprises a clasp and multiple hinges. There are ribs and gaps on the exterior of the filter. A cylindrical sealer ring with ribs in the interior is also provided. The ribs are used for joining the exterior ribs of the filter base. The invention further comprises multiple filter covers. The filter cover comprises a cover and a filter. The cover is used to fix the filter, where there is a set of hinges. The hinge set is built into the hinge set of the filter base. There is also a male clasp on the cover. The clasp can hook onto the female clasp of the filter base. Alternatively, a single filter is attached to the body of the flashlight by a sealer nut. This single filter type reduces the complexity of the flashlight and is useful in applications where multiple filters are not required. This simplified filter does not require an inner casing because the filter base is made out of rubber, which provides enough friction. With this design, the filter cap does not flip open as the sealer ring secures the filter to the head of the flashlight. These and other objectives of the present invention will become obvious to those of ordinary skill in the art after reading the following detailed description of preferred embodiments. It is to be understood that both the foregoing general description and the following detailed description are exemplary, and are intended to provide further explanation of the invention as claimed. The accompanying drawings are included to provide a further understanding of the invention, and are incorporated in and constitute a part of this specification. The drawings illustrate embodiments of the invention and, together with the description, serve to explain the principles of the invention. In the drawings, Reference will now be made in detail to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts. Please refer to The filter base 20 is a cylindrical, which comprises a base hollow compartment 21. The base hollow compartment 21 is used to position the filter base 20 to the concave 15 between the upper male casing component 12 and the lower male casing component 13 of the inner casing 10. There is a male component 22 on the top of the filter base 20. There is a hinge set 23 on each side of the male component 22. The hinge set 23 comprises two individual hinges 231, where there is a pivot hole 232. There is a female clasp 24 between the two hinges 231. On the bottom of the upper male component 22, there is a male screw thread 25. There is also a gap 26 in the appropriate position of the filter base 20. The sealer ring 30 is cylindrical, which comprises a sealer hollow compartment 31 and a female screw thread 32. The female screw thread 32 is used to screw onto the male screw thread 25 of the filter base 20. There are ribs 33 on the exterior of the sealer ring 30 to facilitate screwing the sealer ring 30 onto the filter base 20. The multiple filter covers 40 comprise two filter covers 41. The filter covers 41 each comprise a cover 42 and a filter 43. The cover 41 is used to fix the filter 43 in the right position. There is a hinge set 44 on the cover 42. The hinge set 44 consists of 4 individual hinges 441. There is a hole 442 on each hinge 441. The hinge set 44 is embedded into the hinge set 23 of the filter base 20, and a pivot screw 45 pierces through holes 232 and 442 and locks them. In doing so, the filter cover 41 is fixed on to each side of the filter base 20. Furthermore, there is a hinge spring 46 on each side of the pivot screw 45 and it is positioned between the filter base 20 and the cover 42, in order to provide a resistance force when opening the filter cover 41. Finally, there is a male clasp 47 on the cover 42, Please refer to When a filter cover 41 is desired to be used, close the filter cover 41 to the other side and make the male clasp 47 clasp onto the female clasp 24 of the filter base 20. When the user wants to release the used filter cover 41 or change to a different filter cover 41, then lift the already used filter cover 41 up, by releasing the male clasp 47 and the female clasp 24. Then the hinge spring 46 helps the filter cover 41 to flip open, so that the filter cover 41 is no longer facing towards head 61 of the flashlight 60. Finally, repeat the same operation to cover another filter cover 41. Please refer to Please refer to The flashlight with changeable filter structure of the present invention allows the filters of the flashlight to become more multi-functional, and also saves the trouble of carrying many individual filters. In the meantime, there are clasps amongst the filter covers that make operation easier and more economical. Alternatively, in embodiments of the present invention, the inner casing is not required. In these cases, the filter base is made out of rubber, pliable, or flexible material, therefore combining the inner casing with the filter base. Refer to It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made to the present invention without departing from the scope or spirit of the invention. In view of the foregoing, it is intended that the present invention cover modifications and variations of this invention provided they fall within the scope of the invention and its equivalent.

Welcome to the January-February issue of Shine On Hollywood Magazine (SOHM)! As a new year comes to fruition, we here at Shine On Hollywood Magazine are excited about 2015. With the Golden Globes, Grammy and The Writer Guild Awards already behind us and The Oscars Awards just around the corner, there is more great work coming out of Hollywood and around the globe than ever before. The level of quality work in all aspects of entertainment, film, TV, video, music, dance, art and fashion has all been raised over the last year. The business side of things is rapidly changing with the availability of on-demand shows and events available to anyone with an internet connection in most of the world. The Hollywood experience used to be available only to those who could get to a theater, go to a concert or buy a record. Those days are over and the volume of entertainment has made creating and mounting productions very competitive these days. We, as the consumers of these productions, are the winners as we get to enjoy more and better events and shows. This month, we focus our attention on the world of dance. Sometimes, when watching a show or concert, we don't always realize how hard the dancers are working to bring us a great show. They often don't get the recognition that is so well deserved. This is our chance to recognize just a few of the successful dancers and choreographers working in entertainment today. Their stories will amaze and inspire you. Our cover story features Allen Walls. Dancing since the 80's, Walls took a very unconventional path to be the success he is today. He also understands how dancers are not recognized in the business and has done his part to create an event to do just that with the World Dance Awards. See how he started and made his way onto the big screen as well as into your homes on TV. We also are highlighting a Russian import, Ekaterina Fedosova. This diminutive person should not be dismissed because of her size. She is a powerhouse on the dance floor and has proved it again and again through competitions through the dancing world around the globe. With a dream in her heart, read how she made her way to the U. S. and ultimately, to Hollywood where she is making a name for herself. A dancer and now, choreographer, who is very busy is Melena Rounis. Starting out in the classics of ballet and jazz, Rounis is one to be reckoned with in the hip-hop world. She works constantly and it was not easy to pin her down for an interview, but we did and her story is inspiring. Finally, we follow the career and life of dancer, choreographer and director, Cheryl Baxter-Ratliff. With a dance teacher mom, she was destined to be very successful in entertainment, as she is. Working alongside some of the greatest performers of our time, Cheryl has a resume most dancers would give their favorite dancing shoes for. Read about how she transitioned from a well-rounded dancer knowing just about all the different styles to include singing on her resume and even performing for the President.

They're no strangers to big screen movie screenings, and Ryan Reynolds and Denzel Washington were on-hand for the New York City premiere of "Safe House" on Tuesday night (February 7).
The "Green Lantern" stud and his "Unstoppable" co-star both looked handsome on the red carpet and smiled for several photos before disappearing inside the Big Apple's School of Visual Arts Theatre.

Whatever happens in your life enjoy it, whatever doesn't appear you don't need. So have no regrets as they take you away from this moment in which you are a magnet for further abundance and joy.
How free are you, how much risks do you dare to take, how fearless are you. Do you recognize your limitations to keep yourself in what you think to be safe and secure? There is only one safe true way to live your life abundantly. When you care for this moment and nurture it with great determination it will provide you with many more.
What are you recognizing in others, who behaves in ways that irritate you most? Remember; when you make things personal what others say or do, it becomes something you have to deal with, if you like it or not.
What do you allow there to be in your life. What do you think you deserve to have and are you capable of receiving it? The moment that you don't get what you really want, shows your hidden blockage to abundant thoughts.
Are you going to do your utmost to be at your best today, reaching for excellence and honoring this day for what it is; your opportunity to create miracles, inspire your talents and making this a day to be remembered with love and gratitude?
You are so much more than you think you are, can do things you never have done so far, are able to think different and act in unexpected ways. No one knows exactly your thoughts and is able to know your power as you are unique!
The most important person in your life is YOU, as you are the center-point from which everything comes. You are the Creator of the unique reality you live and it's you who is the key to happiness and joy.
Life is not about getting what you want or hoping for the best as life is the outcome of your thoughts. How much abundant thoughts, faith and trust do you have. In what way do you honor your life and do you take care of yourself?

User Review: Wolfenstein 3D by id Software (1992)
"Conlin! Man that 50 caliber gun!"
A "flashback" to the days of your training.
...where the definitive drill sergeant goes through the standard initiation of the rookies.
The training/tutorial is about to begin.
"Whack the hell outta that thing, maggot!"
"Well, the maggot can actually shoot!!"
Aiming without the sniper rifle.
Training is never like the real thing, however...
The Japanese withdraw. If only the entire game was as impressive as Pearl Harbor...
However, the war takes us to the jungle, where every step might be your last.
Fortunately, those stars help you locate your squad fellows in the dark.
Squad orders are represented via symbols on the upper right corner.
This jungle never seems to end...

Passover - Unregistered February 05, 2013 11:44 AM Completely predictable so far. I'm sure Rossi will get the odd podium when one of the three aliens craps out, but challenge for the championship just aint gonna happen. 2 agree 10 disagree
RSMick February 05, 2013 11:49 AM Rossi managed 2 laps sub 2.02, Lorenzo 13 and Marquez 8 Reply Report abuse 4 agree 3 disagree
MC - Unregistered February 05, 2013 12:10 PM @RSMick Remember it's a test, riders are trying out different settings trying to find good setups, so it's not always indicative of the season to come. Marquez and Pedrosa tested here last year and Lorenzo has been on the bike for the last two seasons while Rossi hasn't, so they have prior tests to pick up where they left - Rossi is basically starting from scratch here. 5 agree 2 disagree
billace - Unregistered February 05, 2013 12:13 PM Wow Marquez, not just fast but on pace straight away. You need blazing speed and incredible precision to challenge for wins and he's showing he might have the stuff to shake things up at the front. 2 Respols and JLo trading wins, deja vu but hopefully with a little more action. 3 agree 0 disagree
rabcati - Unregistered February 05, 2013 12:13 PM "handed a WINNING bike to Rossi who took the EXACT same bike and went two seconds per lap slower"If you bother to check the RACE lap times from early 2011 you will see Vale was about HALF a second slower than Casey was on the Ducati. Before they started modifying it to hell. 0 agree 4 disagree
Mark - Unregistered February 05, 2013 12:17 PM It's interesting to note that Rossi's quickest lap was set earlier in his run, lap 30, compared to the 3 in front who all set their fastest times at the end of their runs.Excellent pace from Marquez, love to see 4 of them in a scrap at the front at some stage during the season. 2 agree 1 disagree
billace - Unregistered February 05, 2013 12:26 PM Remeber its the FIRST test and they are all still well off the true pace. Expect 2 riders to drop some time if it stays dry and lets see if others can maintain the gap. The men have not been separated from the boys yet... 0 agree 0 disagree
SwissJudge February 05, 2013 12:27 PM Normal service has been resumed... with the addition of MM.Can MM win his first race?Pedrosa and Lorenzo have to be the favourates for the WC. But I would not want to bet my house on it. Reply Report abuse 0 agree 0 disagree

Why should I recycle my old electronics?
Electronic products are made from valuable resources and highly
engineered materials, including metals, plastics, and glass, all
of which require energy to mine and manufacture them. Reusing
and recycling consumer electronics conserves our natural
resources and avoids air and water pollution, as well as
greenhouse gas emissions that are caused by manufacturing virgin
For example:
Recycling one million laptops saves the energy equivalent to the
electricity used by 3,657 US homes in a year.
One metric ton of circuit boards can contain 40 to 800 times the
concentrations of gold ore mined in the US and 30-40 times the
concentration of copper ore mined in the US.
Consumer electronics may be responsible for 40% of the lead
found in landfills.

AP / Matt York
American politics, as the midterm elections demonstrated, have descended into the irrational.
The American left is a phantom. It is conjured up by the right wing to tag Barack Obama as a socialist and used by the liberal class to justify its complacency and lethargy.
In a traditional democracy, the liberal class functions as a safety valve. It makes piecemeal and incremental reform possible. It offers hope for change and proposes gradual steps toward greater equality. But the assault by the corporate state on the democratic state has claimed the liberal class as one of its victims.
Author and Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges recently made an appearance on Canadian television's "The Agenda With Steve Paikin" to make his case about how the American liberal class and its institutions have spectacularly failed those whom they supposedly aimed to serve ... (continued)
AP / Dario Lopez-Mills
The lunatic fringe of the Republican Party, which looks set to make sweeping gains in the midterm elections, is the direct result of a collapse of liberalism.
Chris Hedges talks about his new book, how he came to write it, and what we can expect from the collapse of the liberal establishment.
AP / Mark A. Stahl
Staughton Lynd and his wife, Alice, also a lawyer, are soldiering on in the economic and social ruins of Youngstown, Ohio, where the only growth industry is locking people away.
The ancient Greek playwright Aristophanes spent his life battling the assault on democracy by tyrants. It is disheartening to be reminded that he lost.
AP / J. Scott Applewhite
We can hold One Nation marches every week. It will not make any difference until we revolt against the formal structures of power.
AP / Mary Schwalm
Like the Ancients, we arrogant humans who turn ourselves into objects of worship and build ruthless systems of power to control the world around us will get what we are due.
AP / Eyal Warshavsky
Whether Gen. David Petraeus or the bearded villains wearing suicide belts, killers perpetuate new cycles of revenge and murder like bad karma. One son of a terrorist is breaking the cycle.
AP / Elise Amendola
Do not fear Glenn Beck or Sarah Palin. Fear the underlying corporate power structure, which no one, from Barack Obama to the right-wing nut cases who pollute the airwaves, can alter.
Courtesy of the Arredondo family.
Crazed and distraught with grief, the father went into his garage and took out five gallons of gasoline and a propane torch. He walked past the three Marines in their dress blues and began to smash the windows of the government van with a hammer.
The Truthdig columnist begins this speech to the Veterans for Peace convention by saying, "Physical courage is something you see on a battlefield. Moral courage you almost never see."
AP / Emilio Morenatti
Desperate Israeli politicians, watching opposition to their apartheid state mount, have proposed a perverted form of what they term "the one-state solution."
Journalist, author and Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges brought his years of experience in the world's war-torn zones to bear on this challenging speech he gave in March for the Truth Commission on Conscience in War at New York City's Riverside Church.
AP / Dima Gavrysh
By the end of Howard Zinn's 423-page FBI file one walks away with a profound respect for the historian and a deep distaste for the buffoonish goons in the FBI who followed and monitored him.
If you missed our inaugural Q&A session with author and Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges in which he discussed with readers his latest column, "Calling All Future-Eaters," or you just want to relive the excitement, you can read the full transcript here.
AP / Maya Hitij
We sit passive and dumb as corporations and the leaders of industrialized nations ensure that climate change will accelerate to levels that could mean the extinction of our species. Homo sapiens, as the biologist Tim Flannery points out, are the "future-eaters."
What is it going to take for concerned and engaged citizens to finally feel as though some crucial threshold has been crossed—that our nation's political system and the global corporate culture it both serves and feeds into will never represent them or serve their needs?
White House / Pete Souza
A close reading of the new health care legislation, which will conveniently take effect in 2014 after the next presidential election, is deeply depressing.
This summer's inaugural Truthdig Trek with Chris Hedges was truly an adventure. Check out this slide show of photos from the Trek—and see what some of our participants have to say.

We are fooled by virtual mirages into mistaking the busy, corporate hives of human activity and the salacious images and gossip that clog our minds as real. The natural world, the real world, on which our life depends, is walled off from view as it is systematically slaughtered.
We're pleased to announce that Truthdig won four first-place honors, more than any other website, in the Southern California Journalism Awards presented by the Los Angeles Press Club on Sunday evening in Los Angeles.

Theater, which at its best makes us more human and humane, has become increasingly mediocre, produced as spectacle or driven by the presence of Hollywood celebrities.

Tens of millions of Americans are creating a theocratic state based on "biblical law," and shutting out all those they define as the enemy.
AP / Elizabeth Dalziel
Hope in this age of bankrupt capitalism will come with the return of the language of class conflict. It does not mean we have to agree with Karl Marx, but we have to speak in his vocabulary.
AP / Petros Giannakouris
Here's to the Greeks. They know what to do when corporations pillage and loot their country. Call a general strike. Riot. Shut down the city centers. Toss the bastards out.
U.S. Navy / MC2 Justin Stumberg
These deformed individuals carrying out the global genocide against human life and the natural world lack the capacity for empathy. They possess the peculiar ability to organize vast, destructive bureaucracies and yet remain blind to the ramifications.
Truthdig columnist and author Chris Hedges has some very strong words for the Israeli and American governments, condemning their roles in the ongoing conflict with Gaza in this clip from Hedges' speech at Revolution Books in New York City last year.
AP / Olivier Laban-Mattei
The traditional religious institutions are in irreversible decline. They have nothing left to say. And their aging congregants, who are fleeing the church in droves, know it. But don't think the world will be a better place for their demise.
U.S. Air Force / Airman 1st Class Eboni Knox
We are approaching a decade of war in Afghanistan, and the war in Iraq is in its eighth year. The peace movement, despite the heroic efforts of a handful of groups, is dead.
Did Congress declare war on Afghanistan according to the rules set forth in the Constitution? According to David Swanson, who joined Chris Hedges, Jeremy Scahill, Ann Wright and Josh Steiber for a teach-in Thursday on Capitol Hill ... (continued)
The difference between the tea party and the secessionist movement bubbling up in some two dozen states is that the tea party believes America can be fixed.
In an April 10 speech for the Poverty Initiative, at Union Theological Seminary in New York City, Chris Hedges cuts right to the chase: "I think we have to face the fact that the Poverty Initiative and the civil rights movement failed," he says.
AP / Hussein Malla
America's greatest intellectual says, "The mood of the country is frightening. The level of anger, frustration and hatred of institutions is not organized in a constructive way. It is going off into self-destructive fantasies."
AP / Carolyn Kaster
Ralph Nader's descent from being one of the most respected and powerful men in the country to being a pariah illustrates the totality of the corporate coup.
AP / Jae C. Hong
Fritz Stern wrote "In Germany there was a yearning for fascism before fascism was invented." It is the yearning that we now see, and it is dangerous.
AP / Muhammed Muheisen
The Israeli government, its brutal war crimes in Gaza exposed in detail in the U.N. report by Justice Richard Goldstone, has implemented a series of draconian measures to silence and discredit dissidents, leading intellectuals and human rights organizations inside and outside Israel.
AP / Ben Margot
Brace yourself. The American empire is over. And the descent is going to be horrifying. How do we fight back?
It was the first Iraq war movie to really break through, and now "The Hurt Locker" has won six Academy Awards, including best picture and best director, marking the first time an Oscar for directing has gone to a woman. The movie opens with a quote from Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges. (continued)
In a newly available interview, Truthdig's Chris Hedges sits down with filmmaker Michael Moore and poignantly argues that capitalism is driving humanity's downfall. Moore conducted the interview for his latest movie, "Capitalism: A Love Story," but eventually cut it from the documentary.
AP / Chris Carlson
The illegal wars and occupations, the largest transference of wealth upward in American history and the egregious assault on civil liberties, all begun under George W. Bush, raise only a flicker of tepid protest from liberals when propagated by the Democrats.
Traditional media is dying, the virtual future is here and a new book takes a close look at what it all means—and it ain't pretty.
Now that unions have been broken, rapacious corporations like FedEx and toadies in Congress and the White House are turning workers into serfs.
The Internet has become one more tool hijacked by corporate interests to accelerate our cultural, political and economic decline.
In this interview, Chris Hedges elaborates on his Truthdig column that says democracy in America is a useful fiction.
AP / Fareed Khan
The conviction of the Pakistani neuroscientist Aafia Siddiqui in New York last week of trying to kill American military officers and FBI agents illustrates that the greatest danger to our security comes not from al-Qaida but the thousands of shadowy mercenaries, kidnappers, killers and torturers our government employs around the globe.
In this interview with Vermont Public Radio's Neal Charnoff, "Empire of Illusion" author and Truthdig columnist Chris Hedges emphasizes what makes his book's argument different from that of the stereotypical elder who disapproves of emerging artistic and cultural forms: "I'm not attacking culture, I'm attacking corporatism," he tells Charnoff. (continued)
AP / Elaine Thompson
Don't blame the Internet. The bloodless and soulless journalism of the traditional media left newspapers on the wrong side of the growing class divide and their readers.

Submitted by emalvini on Tue, 12/11/2012 - 14:34Hundreds Of Squid Wash Ashore Along Santa Cruz County Beaches (Video)
December 11, 2012 12:14 AM
APTOS (CBS 5) — Scientists are investigating why at least several hundred dead squid suddenly washed ashore along the Santa Cruz County coast Sunday afternoon.
Witnesses said the Humboldt squid stranded themselves during high tide Sunday. Carcasses were found along a 12 mile stretch from Aptos to Watsonville.

Squid Drowning? ....And All This Time I Though Sqid Could Swim
That's like saying that the polar bear are an endangered species because they cannot swim, meaning that Polar Bears never could swim or all of a sudden forgot to swim or unlearned something that comes natural to them...SWIMMING!
How many people have ever watched a polar Bear swim? They are excellent swimmers. .....AND BY THE WAY, THE POLAR BEAR POPULATION IS INCREASING..
More B.S. from the environmentalist wacos! They are either completely ignorant or just being political, as in politically correct...

just an attempt at humor
i know what you mean about the polar bears and such
there is a commercial on tv about how many wild cats
are left(i don't remember which ones)
but it shows babies and their parents,so i posed this question to our kids
if them cats were all stressed out from poaching,and constantly
being hunted into extinction,do you really think they would be having kids? or do you all think they would be too tired and stressed for that?
there answer was they would be tired,and them cats didn't look
tired but were actually playing around

I've lived on the pacific.....
All my life.
During that time I've seen this happen with: flys, bees, lobster, star fish, man-o-war, jellies, clams, sea urchins and crab.
Some of these creatures, by the millions.
I've seen the ebb line(?) (or the area where the foam resides) THICK orange with bees and thick black with flys. So thick you could scoop up hundreds with a simple pass of your hand (not that I recommend doing that).
Why does this happen? There probably is not just one reason. And it would be VERY hard for anyone to say for sure.

It's OK to say 'I'm sorry'
Stand-up comedians and sitcoms have been making fun of Canadians for being polite as long as I can remember. Being known for our niceness is certainly not a bad thing and I wish more Canadian businesses would adopt this philosophy when people get hurt on their premises. As a lawyer practicing in the field of personal injury law I see many clients who tell me that they would not be in my office if the other party (usually a big company) just apologized or quite frankly demonstrated any real concern for their well-being. Unfortunately, I think too many businesses are ill advised in that they assume if they are nice or they apologize this could be interpreted to mean that they did something wrong and it could hurt them in a lawsuit. As a result, human decency seems to go right out the window. What these businesses may not be aware of is that it's OK to say "I'm sorry" or express sympathy to the victim of an injury and it cannot be used against them in a court of law.
For any cynics out there, I am not just trying to get businesses to admit guilt for the benefit of personal injury lawyers. Quite the opposite in fact; I believe that if businesses show more compassion it will be detrimental to personal injury lawyers as the clients are less likely to litigate (this does not necessarily apply to catastrophic claims). There are numerous studies that look at the relationship between apologies and litigation, particularly in the field of medical negligence. As a result, many governments have created legislation that allows people to apologize without there being any recourse.
People often say "I'm sorry" and what they mean is that "I'm sorry you got hurt", but that does not equate with "I'm sorry it's my fault." The reason it is OK to say "I'm sorry" in BC (regardless of what you mean) is that we have legislation called the Apology Act, which essentially states that an apology does not amount to an admission of fault or liability by the person involved and it must not be taken into account in any determination of fault or liability. In short, saying "I'm sorry" does not amount to guilt. Therefore you are free to apologize until the cows come home without legal consequence.
I have no doubt that there are some people who get hurt, that no matter how nice you are, they will do what they feel they need to do, but there are many others that are simply looking for kindness, compassion and respect. In cases involving more significant injury, such as where a person is severely disabled and cannot work anymore, a lawsuit will likely ensue out of necessity but it does not mean that an apology or compassion for what has happened to the person is not the right thing to do. In my view the best policy for anyone to apply is the golden rule – treat others the way you wish to be treated. What have you got to lose? From my perspective, nothing. The Apology Act protects you from liability, it protects you from any terms of your insurance policy that take issue with apologies and in-turn it also protects the integrity of your business.

What do I pay ICBC for anyway?
If you have had ongoing dealings with ICBC as a result of a car accident than you have likely had the pleasure of dealing with at least two sides of ICBC. Initially the relationship starts off pleasant but as the relationship continues the lines of communication and mutual understanding fade. Now, in fairness to many of the adjusters who handle personal injury files, this is not the fault of the adjuster but the fact that the adjuster wears two hats along with having to follow ICBC's unreasonable and arbitrary policies. These two hats are confusing to clients and I often hear, "So what do I pay ICBC for anyway?"
Let me try to explain. In most car accidents in British Columbia, ICBC is your insurer but they are also the insurer for the other people involved in the collision. In simple terms, ICBC acts for the good guy (white hat) and the bad guy (black hat) on the same case. A very clear conflict of interest.
White hat - If you are the injured party and you are not at fault for the collision (aka innocent party) then ICBC is your insurer for:
1. Accident benefits, also known as no fault benefits or Part 7 benefits. This is very basic insurance coverage that is designed to provide very modest insurance coverage for wage loss (up to $300/week), medical and rehabilitation benefits (a portion of these expenses) and death benefits. It is not full compensation. ICBC is not a disability insurer, nor can you buy this coverage from them. To get complete compensation from ICBC, you need someone else to be at fault and insured by ICBC with policy limits sufficient to cover your claim. In short, you need someone to sue with money (usually insurance money).
2. UMP (Underinsured Motorist Protection) – this is additional coverage if the person at fault does not have enough insurance to pay for your claim. Additional UMP coverage can be purchased at a very low cost.
3. Hit and run coverage - this is additional coverage where you do not know who is responsible (who to sue) for your claim (Note: very specific steps need to be followed for this coverage to be effective – see my previous article ICBC Ought to Include a Warning.)
Black hat - If you are the person at fault for the collision then ICBC is your insurer for:
1. Accident benefits – for you, even if you are at fault (see description above).
2. Repairing or replacing your vehicle (if you bought collision coverage).
3. Paying valid claims that any other person involved in the collision makes against you for vehicle damage and injury up to your policy limits (between $200,000 and $5 million depending on what coverage limits you bought). Without this insurance you would personally have to pay any damages awarded by a court to a person injured in a car accident that was your fault. If insured, ICBC will negotiate with the injured party on your behalf and if necessary, settle or defend a lawsuit. If the other party's claim is more than your insurance coverage, you are personally responsible for anything in excess of your policy limits.
In summary, what you primarily pay ICBC for when you buy auto insurance, besides repairing or replacing your vehicle, is insurance coverage to defend and payout any damages awarded or agreed to on your behalf up to the limits of your insurance policy. You do not pay ICBC to provide you with full compensation if you are hurt. What this means is that if you are badly hurt in an accident, in order to obtain complete compensation, you are going to need someone to sue (make a claim against). More specifically, and from a practical level it means that ICBC primarily acts for the black hat and if you are the injured party you are going to have to wait until the end of your claim to get most of your money. ICBC has no obligation to pay your ongoing expenses, beyond what is covered under your accident benefit coverage until the end of the claim. That being said, ICBC may choose to pay more than their legal obligation for a period of time in hopes that you will not retain a lawyer, but the bottom line is that they do not have to pay everything until the end of the file. As a result, whenever you are dealing with ICBC as the innocent party it is important to keep in mind that ICBC simply cannot act in the best interests of both people they insure (white hat and black hat) at the same time.

Working under the table
They say there are only two things that are certain in life: death and taxes. Not exactly an uplifting thought, but true nonetheless. Some people try to avoid paying tax by "working under the table," also referred to as "moonlighting" or working "off the books" but the reality is that this practice can eventually kick you in the backside, something I see all too often in my personal injury practice.
The obvious problem with working under the table is that it is illegal. It can result in criminal convictions, fines, jail time and penalties (for more information see: CRA – About the underground economy). Clearly if you work under the table you are not expecting to get caught, but some people do and CRA (Canada Revenue Agency) appears to have very little mercy.
I have never met anyone who anticipated being seriously injured in an accident, rendering them unable to work; so not surprisingly, most people have not thought about the fact that if their primary income is earned under the table or is unreported and they are injured in an accident, they will not have a typical claim for income loss.
Where your income is earned under the table or is unreported, you can still make a claim for income loss, but if you do, it comes with inherent risk of CRA knocking on your door for back taxes. You will also not qualify for Employment Insurance or wage loss benefits with ICBC, you will have no workers compensation coverage and you are going to have a much more difficult time claiming any past or future wage loss in an accident claim. As a result, if you can't work for any real length of time, chances are you will lose everything you have worked so hard under the table for, because you won't have any replacement income. Unless you have significant savings or access to other income, you won't be able to pay your mortgage, or your rent, or any of your bills while you are recovering from your injuries.
The other problem is that in addition to not being able to make a proper wage loss claim, it can impact your credibility and reliability of your evidence with respect to your injury claim. Like it or not, we have to pay taxes. If you avoid paying taxes, the court (and ICBC) will hold that against you in all aspects of your claim. If you have been injured in an accident, and you have been working under the table, you may want to speak to a tax lawyer about CRA's Voluntary Disclosure Program, which is an opportunity to put you in good standing with CRA and possibly help improve your injury claim.

Is this a fair offer from ICBC?
"Is this a fair offer from ICBC?"…. "How much should I settle for?"… "What is my claim worth?" These are just some of the questions I regularly get asked. If I could create an app that would answer these questions, many personal injury lawyers would be out of business. If you are a tech person, don't get too excited about the business opportunity. The reason there is no app for these questions is because each claim is unique and there is a significant amount of information and analysis that goes into properly answering these questions. Even an experienced personal injury lawyer will not be able to tell you the precise value of your claim over the phone or by email, but with just some basic information, he or she can often advise you if the offer appears to be too low. As for what your claim is precisely worth, that is more involved. Below are some of the questions that help personal injury lawyers assess the value of your claim.
Have you recovered from your accident? – If you have not recovered, or you have not reached maximum medical improvement, chances are it is too early to properly assess whether the offer is fair, but it is not too early to retain a lawyer. For more information on the right time to assess the value of your claim, see my previous article: When Should I settle with ICBC?
Who is at fault for your accident? – The value of your claim may be reduced if you are partly at fault for your accident. For more information on proving liability, see my previous article: Proving Liability in an Injury Claim.
Did you contribute to your injuries? – If you are partly to blame for your injuries, such as not wearing a helmet while riding a bicycle, not wearing your seatbelt while riding in a car or traveling with an intoxicated driver, than you may be found partially or completely at fault for your injuries and the value of your claim will be reduced.
Were your injuries caused by the accident or something else? – The defendant is only responsible for compensating you for injuries caused by the accident. A defendant does not have to pay for injuries that are unrelated to the accident or symptoms that would have appeared absent the accident. The defendant is responsible for aggravation of pre-existing conditions. Causation can be a very tricky issue. For more information on proving causation, see my previous article: Proving Causation in an Injury Claim.
What are the damages you have suffered as a result of the accident? – Once you have addressed the above issues, the next question is what are the damages you have suffered? There are several different categories of damages that need to be assessed and added up to determine the value of your claim. The main categories are set out below:
Pain and Suffering – you are entitled to be compensated for the pain and suffering you have endured as a result of the accident. The information generally taken into consideration includes: your age, nature of the injury, severity and duration of pain, disability, emotional suffering, loss of impairment of life, impairment of family, marital and social relationships, impairment of physical and mental abilities, loss of lifestyle, and stoicism (Stapley v. Hejslet 2006 BCCA 34). To arrive at a figure, the facts of your case are compared to the facts of other similar cases that have gone before the court. There are no specific values for specific injuries. Experienced personal injury lawyers can often ballpark the pain and suffering value of claims, without looking at the case law at least in terms of small (under $25,000), medium ($25,000 to $100,000) and large claims ($100,000-$350,000). The present upper limit is approximately $350,000 which is reserved for catastrophic cases.
Special Damages – you are entitled to be compensated for all reasonable expenses that you have incurred as a result of the accident. These include things like massage therapy, physiotherapy, chiropractors, psychologists, counsellors, acupuncture, medication, medical devices, mileage to and from appointments, parking or taxi fares for appointments, nursing costs, etc. Basically, if you had to buy it because of your accident and it was a reasonable and necessary expense, you can recover it.
Past Wage Loss/Past Loss of Earning Capacity – you are entitled to be compensated for income you would have earned, but did not earn as a result of the accident. If you did not suffer a wage loss, but lost time from a sick bank or holiday bank you are also generally entitled to be compensated for this loss. If you are self-employed or a business owner and you suffered financial loss as a result of your accident this is also compensable.
Future Wage Loss/Future Loss of Earning Capacity – if you have suffered a disability as a result of the accident and there is a real and substantial possibility that your disability will have an impact on your ability to earn a living in the future than you are entitled to compensation for this loss.
Future Cost of Care – if you will have ongoing expenses related to the accident that are medically justified, such as assistance, equipment, facilities and treatment costs, than you are entitled to be compensated for those expenses provided that they are reasonable in the circumstance.
Past and Future Loss of Housekeeping Capacity – if you are unable to perform household tasks as a result of the accident than you are entitled to compensation for this loss.
In Trust Claim – if as a result of your accident a friend or family member provides services outside the range of his or her normal duties, and if that individual had not stepped in you would have otherwise had to hire someone else to do those duties, than you are entitled to claim compensation in-trust for the services of that person.
For more information on proving damages, see my previous article: Proving Damages in an Injury Claim.
Have you followed your health care providers' advice? – You are obligated to do everything you reasonably can do to get better. This means that you need to seek medical assistance and generally speaking, follow the advice of your caregivers. If you choose not to follow their advice, this is called a failure to mitigate your damages and the value of your claim may be reduced.
Once all of the above information is considered and the supporting evidence is provided, a personal injury lawyer can provide you with a proper legal opinion on the value of your claim. If you have received an offer from ICBC and want to know if it is fair, I recommend contacting a personal injury lawyer. Most personal injury lawyers do not charge for phone calls, emails or initial consultations.
