With so many needs it's hard for an inner-city educator like Lorraine Terretta to put a new playground at the top of her wish list for help from The Vancouver Sun's Adopt-a-School campaign.
"I understand all the political stuff around asking for a playground," said Terretta, acknowledging the instinctive hesitance donors might feel at being asked to pay for something they likely believe is the responsibility of the school district.
But Terretta, vice-principal of Lord Selkirk Annex on Dumfries just south of Kingsway, has a dilemma.
All the wooden playground equipment that provides exercise and release for her Kindergarten to Grade 4 students at recess or after school has been condemned by the district and has to be removed.
She has been offered a used, non-wooden playground presently installed at Tillicum Annex, in the docklands area. In February, Tillicum will receive a new one courtesy of Port Metro Vancouver.
The snag is that it will cost $7,800 to hire school board workers to dig up Tillicum's playground, move it to Selkirk Annex and install it.
Given the financial state of affairs in the education system, there's no money in the school board's budget to do this since, over the years, expenditures for new playgrounds have been off-loaded onto Parent Advisory Councils.
Parents in wealthier areas of Vancouver have shrugged this off as an inconvenience and come up with the money.
Not here though.
Terretta is in charge of one of Vancouver's smallest inner-city schools — 73 students and four teachers rattling around in a building designed for a much larger population with a number of classrooms closed up.
The school is in an area where most parents are new immigrants working multiple jobs to make ends meet.
"I have taught in schools where within a year parents have raised $40,000 to build a playground. But I can't do that here. We're only a small school. Our parents are really hard working, many of whom do two or three jobs. I can't ask for extra money for a playground. It would be asking them to cut into their basic needs," said Terretta.
She has organized a few fundraising drives and has succeeded in raising $600 this year, at which rate the playground will be erected in 2025.
"I know you can say a playground isn't a basic need for a child, but in my mind it is," she said.
"When they leave school at 3 p.m. a lot of kids are in the playground, it's their release. Throughout the day they use the equipment for phys-ed. We're part of Action School B.C. and that equipment is used for this program, so it's part of our curriculum," she said.
Then there's the greater community that uses the playground when school is over or during weekends and holidays, so uprooting the equipment will cause a loss of neighbourhood facilities.
In February she is planning to ask her parents to help remove Tillicum's playground and store it.
"We need to be part of that."
As for the school's other needs, a number of generous corporate and individual donors have come forward through Adopt-a-School — this year and last — to help out.
Last December, staff from Jack FM radio station organized a large Christmas party for the school and brought in gifts for all the children, as well as money that was used for emergency food vouchers for families in financial difficulties and to buy winter clothing.
Jack FM is coming back again on Dec. 18 to stage another Christmas party.
"Everyone's very excited," said Terretta.
Also, the Vancouver law firm Davis LLP stepped forward earlier this year to take the school under its wing.
In the spring the staff collected $3,180, which was matched by the company and then the total was matched by The Vancouver Sun Children's Fund, resulting in the school receiving $12,720 that was used to buy a Smartboard, books and other equipment.
Lawyers from the firm now regularly visit the school to read to the children.
"The school gave us a list of books they wanted so we have bought them and when our staff go there to read, they leave the book behind for their library," said Cyndi Millar, the partner responsible for the firm's charitable donations.
A few weeks ago the law firm's staff donated new and used winter clothing for children.
Millar said they were inspired to get help by the example of Colliers International, the Vancouver real estate company that adopted Hasting Elementary earlier this year and provides funds for the school's breakfast program.
"When I read about Colliers it made it seem something quite doable. We appreciate the opportunity to see what we are donating to. And helping people in need is very rewarding," said Millar.
This week Vancouver urban planner Colette Parsons approached the school and offered to buy winter boots and socks for a whole class. She imagined spending $1,000.
Before she knew it she found herself committing to buying a new pair of boots, socks and some chocolate for the entire school — 73 of everything — at more than double her budget,
Her husband then offered to put up $500.
At this point in the proceedings — $700 short of her target and considering putting the arm on all her friends and relatives — she was contacted by The Vancouver Sun.
She was told the Sun Children's Fund would match her and her husband's contribution in effect providing $3,000 to the school to buy boots, socks and chocolate for everyone, with some left over.
She's now received a list of boot sizes and has been down to the 3 Vets store on Yukon Street to place an order.
"The reason we can do this for $2,200 is because 3 Vets gave us a deal once they knew what we were doing," she said.
"Oh, and I'm very happy with the Sun stepping in."

Sleep-Sleep's Holy Mountain, 1993
Metal's popularity had fallen by 1993, but there was still a healthy underground in some places. Doom metal as we now know it probably started in the mid 1980's with band's like Saint Vitus, Trouble and Candlemass picking up where early Sabbath had left off. In the early 1990's even a few more bands who had grown up listening to Black Sabbath were starting to lay down some slow, heavy sludge. One of those bands was Sleep from San Francisco who were trimmed down to a trio by this their second full length album. The line-up was Al Cisneros on bass/vocals, Matt Pike on guitar and Chris Hakius on drums. This album is a bit more metal than their 1991 debut and although fairly basic at times, it would be a huge influence on the stoner and doom genres later in the decade and into this decade. Although much of the music is founded in Sabbath style from say 1970-75, there are still enough original ideas to lead one to believe that this band was building on metal's past. The vocals are at times both chaotic and fired up, but it works. The vocals and the sometimes lack of traditional metal song structure is probably what makes Sleep such an influence on stoner rock. Yet the thick guitar riffs and the pounding drums are very much doom metal. I think the biggest strength with this album might be that the band doesn't try too hard to push what they are. I think they are experimenting with their sound to some extent here. They were pushing the limits and seeing what would work so we get an album that starts with a basic slow heaviness on most songs, but they build up each track. They are also very good and doing a great deal, but still remaining somewhat subtle in their approach. Unlike a band like Cathedral who always seemed to me like they were trying too hard to be in your face. I think that Sleep's eventual peak would be the epic "Dopesmoker" in 1997, but this album was setting up the foundation for what was to come. My favorite tracks here include "Dragonaut", "Aquarian", "Holy Mountain" and "Rain's baptism". A must for fans of sludge and doom.

Abstract: Recent years have seen large swings in house prices in many countries. Motivated by housing price variations, proposals for taxing capital gains on housing have repeatedly been put forth. The idea seems to be that such taxes would curb the redistribution occurring between those owning houses and those trying to get into the market for owner-occupied housing. Our paper shows that at least in simple settings, a tax on real capital gains on housing will only lead to even bigger price swings and will not be able to redistribute between people appearing on either side of the housing market.

Abstract: Europe has seen several proposals for tax coordination only in the area of capital income taxation, leaving countries free to adjust their labor taxes. The expectation is that higher capital income tax revenues would cause countries to reduce their labor taxes. This paper shows that such changes in the mix of capital and labor taxes brought on by capital income tax coordination can potentially be welfare reducing. This reflects that in a non-cooperative equilibrium capital income taxes may be more distorting from an international perspective than are labor income taxes. Simulations with a simple model calibrated to EU public finance data suggest that countries indeed lower their labor taxes in response to higher coordinated capital income taxes. The overall welfare effects of capital income tax coordination, however, are estimated to remain positive. JEL Classification: F20, H87 URI: http://hdl.handle.net/10398/7582

Within a simple model that emphasizes the multiple conflicting roles of transfer prices in MNEs – here, as a strategic pre-commitment device and a tax manipulation instrument –, we show that (de-)centralized decisions are more profitable when tax differentials are (small) large.

Background Paper for the Committee for Greenlandic Mineral Resources to the Benefit of SocietyNielsen, Søren Bo (København, 2013)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper considers the role of the public sector in future exploitation of non-renewable resources, especially minerals, in Greenland. The focus is on fiscal sustainability, principles for public sector involvement and the form of government take from mining activities. At present, the public budget in Greenland is nearly in balance, but at unchanged policies and standards public expenditures relative to GDP are bound to increase dramatically over the next decades due to population ageing. At the same time, the freezing of the block grant from Denmark implies a decrease in revenues relative to GDP. Hence, fiscal policy is quite far from being sustainable. Apart from a need for reforms, these facts also constrain the possible role of the public sector in future resource exploitation. In any case, the government should preferably adhere to strict principles when developing the mineral sector in Greenland. Furthermore, serious attention should be given to how to secure an appropriate government take from mineral activities. The paper discusses several types of taxes as well as financing models.

Nielsen, Søren Bo (Frederiksberg, 2014)[More information][Less information]
Abstract: This paper attempts to place industrial foundations (IFs in the following; similar to trusts) in the tax system. An industrial foundation is a private foundation that holds a voting majority in a joint stock corporation. These IFs are probably more prevalent in Denmark than in any other country, and the paper starts by reviewing some stylized facts and figures for IFs in Denmark. Thereafter, it recalls basic desires as to the structure and logic in the tax system and demonstrates how they lead to a system akin to the 'dual income tax' system which has inspired tax reforms in the Nordic countries and elsewhere. This system implies clear consequences for the taxation of different types of income, labor income and capital income. However, as the outline of the system is based on the premise that "people pay taxes", industrial foundations, having no personal owners, do not immediately fit in. So what to do? The paper explores the implications of treating IFs as high‐income earners (wealthy individuals) and draws the conclusion that in the current system, IFs are very leniently taxed relative to that benchmark. Lenient tax treatment relative to the norm is regularly interpreted as tax expenditures; the usual recommendation for such indirect subsidies is to render them direct by transferring them from the revenue to the expenditure side of the budget.

Abstract: Internationalization offers enhanced opportunities for individuals to place savings abroad and evade domestic saving taxation. This paper asks whether the concomi- tant loss of saving taxation necessarily is harmful. To this end we construct a model of many symmetric countries in which public goods are financed by taxes on saving and investment. There is international cross-ownership of firms, and countries are assumed to be unable to tax away pure profits. Countries then face an incentive to impose a rather high investment tax also borne by foreigners. In this setting, the loss of the saving tax instrument on account of international tax evasion may prevent the overall saving-investment tax wedge from becoming too high, and hence may be beneficial for moderate preferences for public goods. A world with 'high- spending' governments, in contrast, is made worse off by the loss of saving taxes, and hence stands to gain from international cooperation to restore saving taxation.

Abstract: In recent years, venture capital has become an important source for nancing young entrepreneurial rms. Given the apparently more innovative nature and extra value added of venture capital backed rms compared to other firms, policy makers have taken an increasing interest in an active venture capital industry. We explore how selected policy instruments determine the incentives of individuals to start up new rms and of venture capitalists to nance and advise them, and how policy thereby influences the size and nature of the industry and how it aspects aggregate welfare. We examine the impact of wage and corporate income taxes as well as capital gains taxes and start-up capital subsidies on the volume and quality of venture capital backed entrepreneurship.

We examine how the value of mature firms determines the incentives of entrepreneurs to start up new firms and of venture capitalists to finance and advise them.

Abstract: We examine how a multinational's choice to centralize or de-centralize its decision structure is affected by country tax differentials. Within a simple model that emphasizes the multiple conflicting roles of transfer prices in MNEs — here, as a strategic pre-commitment device and a tax manipulation instrument —, we show that decentralization is preferred in case of small tax differentials, whereas centralization can be more profitable, when tax differentials are large. In essence, the organizational flexibility of MNEs is triggered by the scope for tax minimization. Our analysis allows for both commitment and non-commitment to transfer prices, and for alternative modes of competition.

Abstract: This paper provides an assessment of Greenland's tax system and contemplates changes that may be undertaken in the future to prepare for greater economic self-reliance and for the country's participation in the wider world economy. At the outskirts of Europe, Greenland is an autonomous part of the Danish kingdom, though currently not a member of EU. However, its cooperation with European countries and its dependency on international trade renders it necessary for the tax system in Greenland to be attuned to developments in the rest of the world. Drawing on a thorough international benchmarking analysis of Greenland's tax system, the paper's special focus will be on the corporate tax system and its interplay with personal taxation, as well on as the system of import duties. In particular, we carry out computations of effective marginal and average corporate tax rates, as well as average effective tax burdens on consumption, labour income and capital income, and compare these to similar measures for EU countries. In addition, we outline how Greenland's economic policy in other areas interferes with tax policy. Especially fishery regulation, management of government-owned companies, and housing policy have major implications for the tax system.

Choreography by: Peter Martins
Music by: Charles Wuorinen
Featuring stunning lighting effects that create geometric patterns onstage, River of Light is an exploration in partnering, at times angular and other moments lyrical, for three interchanging couples.
Throughout his career Peter Martins has been a champion of contemporary American music, and has choreographed to the music of Charles Wuorinen, the Pulitzer Prize-winning American composer, on four occasions. In 1998 Martins created the ballet River of Light as a 60th birthday tribute to Wuorinen, with the composer conducting the New York City Ballet orchestra for the work's premiere performance. The score for the ballet is set to the final section of Wuorinen's "Dante Trilogy", which consists of three modernist scores — "The Mission of Virgil" (1993), "The Great Procession "(1995), and "The River of Light" (1996) — which correspond to the three sections — Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso — of Dante's epic poem The Divine Comedy.

The earliest "treasure" is a black-figure amphora dating to the sixth century BCE that was recently featured in the exhibition Heroes: Mortals and Myths in Ancient Greece, organized by the Walters Art Museum in Baltimore. The namesake vase of the Omaha Painter, it is the centerpiece of Joslyn's highly regarded collection of Greek pottery. Veronese's Venus at her Toilette, ca. 1582, traveled to the Boston Museum of Fine Arts and the Louvre Museum in Paris as part of a major exhibition of Venetian painting, Titian, Tintoretto, Veronese: Rivals in Renaissance Venice. Our own Titian, Giorgio Cornaro with a Falcon, 1537, was on view at the J. Paul Getty Museum in Los Angeles after being cleaned and restored by their conservation laboratory. Jean-Léon Gérôme's The Grief of the Pasha, 1882, was included in a retrospective organized by the Musée d'Orsay, Paris, while a quintet of Impressionist masterpieces by Claude Monet, Pierre Auguste Renoir, Camille Pissarro, and Mary Cassatt have traveled the globe in a number of exhibitions. Works by American painters Eastman Johnson, Thomas Moran, and John George Brown will also return to the galleries, among them Brown's The Card Trick, ca. 1891–92, which was part of the exhibition American Stories: The Painting of Everyday Life: 1765–1915 at the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
These well-traveled veterans will be joined in the exhibition by rarely seen treasures in the collection, including Portrait of a Man, ca. 1650, by Nicholaas Maes, a renowned master of Dutch portraiture and student of Rembrandt van Rijn. Thomas Jones Barker's The Studio of Salvator Rosa in the Mountains of Abruzzi, 1865, is a dramatic Victorian tableau mingling history and anecdote. The American painter Alfred T. Bricher's seascape, Off Newport, ca. 1885–95, conveys the idyllic charm of this popular vacation retreat, an eastern counterpoint to western artist Frederic Remington's A Half Hour's Halt, 1893, depicting a group of soldiers lounging at rest with their mounts. The exhibition concludes with a selection of rarely seen twentieth-century works on paper, among them a watercolor of Venice by John Singer Sargent; a collage by the installation artist Christo related to his Valley Curtain project in Rifle Gap, Colorado, 1970–72; a gunpowder drawing by Pop artist and Omaha native Ed Ruscha; and photographs by Duane Michals and Jerry N. Uelsmann.
Joslyn Treasures celebrates the remarkable strength and richness of our collection; we hope you will visit to welcome home an old favorite — or to discover a new one.
New & Noteworthy
Joslyn Treasures is accompanied by New & Noteworthy: Recent Acquisitions of Modern and Contemporary Art. Numerous significant works have entered the collection in recent years through gift and purchase, many of which have never before been on display. Paintings, sculpture, and works on paper by both American and European artists are included, among them works by Joseph Cornell, Ellen Gallagher, April Gornik, Käthe Kollwitz, Richard Tuttle, and William Wiley.

Benghazi, Obamacare and the Absence of Accountability
WASHINGTON -- In the narrative of every political scandal comes the accountability moment. New facts slow to a trickle, and the next, insistent demand becomes: Who is being held accountable? This is often a dumb question, asked for lack of a more fruitful topic and fueled by partisans more interested in point-scoring than problem-fixing.
The better question is: What is the goal of accountability? A showy, timed-for-the-evening-news firing to demonstrate action and quiet the baying hounds? Or a change in personnel that will improve the mess at hand or send a cautionary message to deter future messes?
Consider the recent mess-o-rama. The botched rollout of the Affordable Care Act. The Senate report that deemed the attack in Benghazi preventable, and raised questions about accountability, or lack thereof. The mounting problems of New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.
Together, they illustrate that our politics suffers from too little real accountability and too much faux-countability. The latter phenomenon has two variations. There is non-accountable accountability, in which the politician piously asserts that the buck stops with him or her but does nothing, post-proclamation, with said buck. And there is its obverse, over-accountability, in which political foes attempt to tar officials with responsibility for actions far beneath their purview.
As the debacle with the health care website was unfolding, I bristled at calls for public beheading. Firing Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius, or some lesser-known bureaucrat, wasn't going to make the website load any faster. Such a precipitous, showy change would probably have worsened the disaster.
But now, with the immediate crisis under control, would seem like a good time for accountability. "Hold me accountable for the debacle," Sebelius declared in October. "I'm responsible." Nice sentiment. But this is non-accountable accountability, an assertion devoid of content. Accountability is meaningless without consequences attached.
Of course, the ultimate responsibility rests with President Obama himself, who failed to adequately oversee implementation. But the conundrum of presidential accountability is that the chief executive can't fire himself.
Benghazi offers an example of both lack of accountability and faux-countability. As Maine Republican Sen. Susan Collins pointed out in comments filed with the Senate intelligence committee report, the attack was preventable, yet no one has been disciplined for failing to prevent it. Collins singled out Undersecretary of State for Management Patrick Kennedy, who testified that the threat environment in Benghazi was "flashing red" yet failed to ensure that a facility he approved there had adequate security.
If the State Department were a corporation, heads would have rolled.
But politics being politics, most Republicans engaged in a bid for over-accountability, focusing on -- wonder why -- Hillary Clinton. "She was responsible for ensuring the safety of all Americans serving in our diplomatic facilities," six Republican members of the Senate intelligence committee wrote in the report. "Her failure to do so clearly made a difference in the lives of the four murdered Americans and their families." South Carolina Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham went further. "Under her leadership, the consulate became a death trap," he told CNN.
Yet the report, like previous investigations, offered no evidence that Clinton was aware of security concerns in Libya. Contrast the preparation for Obamacare, which was, or should have been, at the center of Sebelius' concerns, with the issue of embassy security. That is an important, certainly, and tragically neglected topic, yet not one fair to tag Clinton with, given the array of issues on the secretarial plate.
Which brings us to Christie. The New Jersey governor acted quickly, at least once the incriminating emails were released, to dump the officials involved. He gets accountability points for that, even if it is simultaneously true that the dumping was to his political advantage. "I take this action today because it's my job," Christie said in announcing that he was firing his deputy chief of staff and cutting ties with his campaign manager. "I am responsible for what happened."
Good for Christie. Where the governor loses a few points is in what he takes responsibility for. In Christie's marathon news conference, he came off as more outraged at having been betrayed by his aides lying to him than by their thuggish conduct. It's fair to wonder: Is he accountable for establishing an atmosphere in which underlings viewed such conduct as acceptable?
It's hard to think of the last major public official to take ownership of a failure and resign. Proclaiming accountability, or deploying it as political weapon, is simple enough. Practicing it, especially on yourself, is a lot harder and, not surprisingly, a lot more rare.
In conclusion...

Westbury Blue Painted 5 Drawer Tallboy Wellington Chest of Drawers
The Westbury Blue Painted 5 Drawer Tallboy Wellington Chest of Drawers is a great storage chest for your alcoves or smaller spaces within your home. This type of narrow chest is also referred to as a wellington chest. The chunky top area is ideal for displaying a picture or lamp while the five drawers in the main body of the chest can be used to store plentiful amounts of your clothing or personal possessions.
The chest body is painted in an inky navy blue colour with a satin paint finish and the beautifully contrasting light natural oak top has a protective satin lacquered finish that is both hard-wearing and maintenance free. The Westbury Blue paint colour is traditional in feel and has deep inky navy blue tones that when placed in well-lit areas of your home it will appear much bluer and in darker areas it will appear much darker. This blue painted furniture contrasts beautifully against light greys and natural pastel coloured walls.
This blue painted tallboy is supplied with elegant brushed steel finish cup style handles. The contrasting handles really work well with the blue and oak colours and perfectly complement the design. They give it an attractive feel that is both at home in a modern or traditional setting and these brushed steel handles are seen incorporated into many luxurious interiors nowadays.
This blue chest is skilfully hand made with traditional time honoured construction methods using a combination of high quality North American solid oak for the top frame, thick oak veneer in the top panel, solid pine for the body frame and drawer internals and man-made board for selected panels for increased strength and durability over time. The drawers feature dovetail joints for increased strength and drawer stops to prevent you from accidentally pulling the drawers all the way out.
The Westbury blue painted range has a simple yet stylish design that makes this range stand out from the rest, with the inky blue coloured painted bodies, 40mm thick oak tops and tapered feet on the painted bodies. Not only is it beautiful to look at it is backed up by its premium quality. It is equally at home in both a contemporary home as it is a traditional country cottage due to the timeless clean styling.
This Westbury Blue painted range is built with strength and durability in mind and is guaranteed not to disappoint.
We are so confident that you will love this piece of furniture we offer you a free returns policy so if you don't like it then we will simply collect it free of charge and refund you in full. You can't say fairer than that.
For your peace of mind all our oak and painted furniture is built using timbers sourced from sustainable forests.
This item does not require any assembly and is delivered ready to use free of charge by our own two man delivery team to a room of your choice.
If you would like a paint colour sample of this Westbury Blue painted range then please request one online or give us a call and we will happily post you one out free of charge. We would suggest that a close paint colour match would be Farrow & Ball No. 281 Stiffkey Blue.

First ingredient is a named meat product, uses primarily good quality grains.
Some very low quality ingredients, fats of unidentifiable origin, controversial filler.
The first ingredient is a named meat product in meal form. There is a further meat meal ingredient 7th on the list, which helps to give us some confidence that the food contains an adequate amount of meat. This is a fish meal ingredient and we note that the manufacturer does not state the use of ethoxyquin-free sources (ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative commonly added to fish destined for meal, and is believed to be carcinogenic).
The second ingredient in the food is brewers rice. Brewers rice is a low quality grain and by-product. It is followed by brown rice, barley and oatmeal which are good quality grains and a good source of carbohydrates and additional protein.
Beet pulp is a filler and a controversial ingredient it is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.
Flaxseed is a good quality source of 6 and Omega 3 essential fatty acids. But digest of poultry is yet another low quality ingredient. The AAFCO definition of animal digest is material which results from chemical and/or enzymatic hydrolysis of clean and undecomposed animal tissue. Likewise, spray dried poultry liver digest is a low quality flavouring
Poultry fat is an ingredient of unidentified origin for which it is impossible to determine source or quality. Unidentified ingredients are usually very low quality. AAFCO define this as obtained from the tissues of poultry in the commercial processes of rendering or extracting. It consists predominantly of glyceride esters of fatty acids and contains no additions of free fatty acids. If an antioxidant is used, the common name or names must be indicated, followed by the words "used as a preservative"

Not to imply that we are defined by our trades and careers, but I'm extremely interested to know what some of the rest of you do (or did, for those who may be retired) for a living if anyone feels like sharing! I'm just curious as to what common threads may exist among those of us who feel the burning need to hunt for (and microscopically examine) eggcorns…not to mention our vivid interest in malapropisms, puns, slips, innovations, reshapings, etc.!
I think it's safe to say that one may apply this attribute across the board in this forum – a "gimme," if you will!

Well, it would appear that one trait common to eggcorn hunters is an unwillingness to talk about themselves in a public forum.
Without outing anyone, I know that our regulars include a semi-retired engineer, a doctor, a guy who used to raise mosquitos for an entomology lab, a lawyer, and whole truckloads of teachers, tech writers, and copy editors.
I'm disabled now. In the past I've done ad layout and print shop work, worked for Fisher-Price, sold antiques, and was a book dealer.
My grandfather (who I never knew) and my dad both mangled words intentionally ("hand me the destructions!"), my brother and I do a for fun also, so maybe that's where the interest came from

I'm a copyeditor for a consumer magazine.
My mother started me on this search; she began collecting them back when she was an income-maintenance worker for the state of Iowa, and one of her clients, pressed to give an exact address for her home in a town with no street names, wrote "next store to the post office."
We've been collecting them ever since.
"Next store" has actually made it to the Database here: http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/english/94/store/
There's also a link there to a Language Log article by Mark Liberman on this phrase.
I teach high-school languages (German and French), and in my free time I wonder how I can avoid teaching high-school languages. What with all the time I've spent in the last ten years discussing, thinking about and writing about the English language, I've recently been wondering whether I should write a book on it. God knows there's enough books about English already (or maybe that should just be books, period) but it could be a funner way of making a living…
My wife is a Magyar. :) In fact, I wasn't so interested in English per se until I went out there to teach in '97. I'd taken my language for granted till then, but I quickly became fascinated. Anyway, after four years teaching high-school and college English over there, I came home better educated in English—and Hungarian. Adrian
Other forums allow folks to share these tidbits in the user profile. In those forums, you can not only name your career but also identify hobbies and interests, giving a little more well-rounded picture of who you are. (I guess that's a suggestion for consideration in due time. Or not.)
By the way, I collect my paycheck by being a technical editor, enjoy fine wines and the great outdoors, and have long been fascinated with how people interpret the world and their role in it, the extent to which their language frames that, and the extent to which their own imagery can be used to help them learn more. But then someone convinced me that no one could make even a modest living from understanding the psychology of learning, so I gave it up. So that's what diverted me from the path that led Jakob Nielsen and the like to where they are today. (Not that I necessarily would have gotten there, just that I let myself get bumped off that path far too early to know for sure.)

I'm a computer programmer, and in fact should be working on a web application right now. I'm slacking off. I've studied several languages to some extent, and French to a fair extent. Along the way, I developed an interest in language more generally. I occasionally read the writings of Jakob Nielsen (mentioned above by the egg-master). I also play guitar and piano.
I'm the lawyer Pat mentioned. I've been a law professor, too – exams are a great source of eggcorns, as all teachers know. I'll bet most of the people who post here regularly, like Dadge, have had their linguistic consciousness raised by exposure to several languages. My paternal grandparents were almost monolingual in Yiddish, so I had more exposure to Yiddish growing up than most Jews of my generation, although I don't speak it. I studied Spanish for six years and use it a great deal professionally, lived in Israel long enough to become fairly competent in Hebrew, and studied Greek all through college. I've taught myself some French, Italian and Catalan – not hard after Spanish. This sort of background makes one very conscious of etymologies. I had a tiny thrill lately when it dawned on me that the Spanish "azucena" (lily), from Arabic, was cognate with the Hebrew "shoshana" and thus with our "Susannah."I also had the unusual experience of helping a friend of mine to adopt a profoundly deaf girl from Bulgaria. She was almost five years old, very bright, but had no language at all. She is now eight and has become quite fluent in ASL (I wish I could say the same). Having had a cochlear implant she is beginning to speak a little, as well as read and write in English. Watching her progress has been fascinating and has also changed some of my ideas about language. For example, I used to think that the idea that language may have begun with sign rather than speech was silly. Now I'm not so sure.
INFP on the Myers-Briggs.
Studied Spanish, Latin, and German. Wish I had known my grandfather longer; he died when I was 2, but spoke eight languages. Which eight is lost to the years, but Serbo-Croatian, French, German, English, probably Greek, and possibly Turkish were among them—that covers a lot of bases!
I'm a firefighter and house painter/repairman here in Austin. I came here in '76 to study art and photography at U.T. I ultimately graduated from the Film Dept. I pursued music but mainly my wife, when I met her. She and my four beautiful daughters are the ones with amazing linguistic abilities(they are having tons of vicarious fun from my endeavors here). Most of the fun we have with language usually starts with some mistake I make. That's okay, it just makes the times I am right more exciting.
I took some intro to the psychology of language classes and French, but I think, as many of you have posted, it's really my fascination with human nature that piques my curiosity for subjects like eggcorns. I like to understand how people think and act. Eggcorns, I think, provide a very interesting insight into the human conciousness. They provide a little peek into the mental connections we make with all the information we get. They show the reasonableness of that process, even if it does get us to the wrong end of the maze! What a metaphor of life. And hey, if you can have some humor along the way, you're a truly blessed person. That's what eggcorns are to me and I hope that's what I can bring to this website.

I think Pat (at #4 above) made the most salient observation about eggcorn hunters- they don't much talk about themselves. I'm like that too; I just don't see why my personality would be of interest to others. But since I have another point to make, I'll give out the basics- I'm the doctor Pat mentioned. Contrary to hypothesis,and much to my regret, I have no experience as an editor or teacher of literature, no formal training in linguistics, and no particular knack for languages. (My lineage is peppered with savant-level linguists and musicians, but I was skipped. On the other hand, I've got degrees in math, physics and computer science, so perhaps I merely took a turn to formal rather than natural languages.)My line of work inclines me to look for neurological explanations for behavior, which made Jorkel's speculation about the Myers-Briggs classification of eggcornologists catch my eye. (I have to say, I'm not fond of the Myers-Briggs scheme. That's partly because of its roots in Jungian typology, which ties it into Jung's creepy racial and religious biases, More importantly, it has relatively little empirical backing. The Five Factor or ''Ocean' model of personality has a lot more going for it ['Ocean' is an acronym for the 5 factors: Openness to experience, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism] But I'll stick to the Myers-Briggs because it's popular and online tests for it are easily found.).
I'm an INTP. I'd bet most of us are 'P' (i.e., non-judgmental), but I think that's an artifact of the curious, open-minded, playful and non-prescriptivist leanings of Chris W. and her friends at 'Language Log,' our conceptual forefathers.I'd also agree with Jorkel that most of us are 'N' on the second dimension, which contrasts mediated and unmediated perceptual styles. You need the latter to generate the metacognitions that an eggcorn hunter- or any linguist- works from. (Another thing I dislike about the Myers Briggs classification is that it gets this mixed up with introversion. The usual traits we associate with introversion- shyness, social ineptitude,etc.- are probably epiphenomena of the mediated perceptual style. I doubt that the four Myers-Briggs variables are orthogonal.)
Of course, this is guesswork. I'd like to invite everyone here to take the Myers-Briggs, post your results, and let's see what we come up with.
I came up ENTJ, which means you're all my bitches. Stand by for further instructions…....
Crap, my mistake, I'm an ENFJ…where do my beatings take place?
I seem to be the only regular who's said nowt on this so far and coyness isn't one of my usual afflictions, so… I've worked in a variety of roles and settings, but mainly in training/social work/ teaching. Currently I teach Art and do some Music therapy but a complete change is long overdue. I'm a reluctant monoglot but appear to have no flair for tongues including that into which I was born; schoolboy French and Latin are all but forgotten and my enthusiastic skirmishes with Norwegian and Welsh have left me wiser but still mute. Moreover there is no trace of any savant among my known kith and kin, though this is balanced by an equal and welcome lack of idiots.
As a former admirer of Jung I dipped into an online Myers-Briggs with some distaste, to find I'm 76% ISFP and 73% INFP and apparently I can choose whichever one I like. Neither of them, I'm pleased to note, have any desire to bash booboo.
INFP with 100% F. Oy! Am I a mark or what?
IT consultant and trainer, ex-programmer.
No idea about Myers-Brigg but I am am a pedantic anlytical person. I used to work tag-team with a sales person who would introduce me as his "attention to detail guy". Pretty much true.
Studied French for 6 years at school, Latin for 2 and German for 3. Now married to a German, but still nowhere near fluent.
I have a personal amateur interest in language and linguistics (I even began writing a horribly over-ambitious natural-language parsing AI program while still at school. Got stuck after "I am"). I suppose I just want to formalise the rules of any system, even one as resistant to this approach as an evolved human language. I have less musical talent than a deaf (or indeed dead) hedgehog in a bag.
Despite wanting to understand the rules of the language(s) we use, I accept that these change over time, and sticking to the past for the sake of someone else's opinion is (in the words of Winston Churchill, supposedly) "the sort of arrant nonsense up with which I will not put".
I am intrigued about this member:
"a guy who used to raise mosquitos for an entomology lab"
Does his brother, a professor of etymology spend his free time on the "InsectNews" forums?
(I'm not doubting that he may be an entomologist, I just like the tiny possibility that someone could end up at an eggcorn forum through mis-spelling of a Google search for their favourite topic)
Give a man a fish and he will eat for a day; teach a man to fish and he will buy a ridiculous hat – Scott Adams (author of Dilbert)
Build a man a fire and he will be warm for a day; set a man on fire and he will be warm for the rest of his life – Terry Pratchett
I think to be a true EGGCORN hunter (as opposed to a grammar nitpicker, or a snide judger of other people's deficiencies), you have to have a sense of humor, a little bit of imagination, and a wilingness to believe that someone who has made a mistake, is actually NOT an idiot and thought they did it right!
To hunt an eggcorn, you have to be willing to think of someone else's apparent "mistake" as a possible improvement—or at the very least, an acceptable alternative.
That's the first step to figuring out WHY they did it.
I'm gonna go look at that Language Log posting on "next store"—thanks for the link.
The funny thing is that the woman who wrote it on the form at my mom's office, lived in a former retail building on the town's former "town square."
This thread has been idly dangling for a while, but I'll attempt a frayed knot anyway.
Since retiring, I noodle around on the piano and dabble in abstract art when I'm not busy driving my wife crazy or teasing the cats (or vice versa). I have occasionally worked as an adjunct instructor of college physics and math. Before retiring, I was an engineer cranking out machine language software for flight simulators, factory automation, disc drives and so on.
As a student, I majored in applied math (there were no undergraduate computer science degree programs at the time). When I was an idealistic freshman, I majored in music performance (tuba), flunked out and got drafted, which greatly enhanced my awareness of the diversity of American folk etymologies. I studied Spanish in high school. Later in life crammed just enough Czech to sound like a dumb tourist. I've since forgotten most of what little I knew about both languages.
More recently, my dormant interest in linguistics was rekindled by numerous lengthy conversations with a former neighbor who was writing a dissertation for his PhD in linguistics. My current fascination with eggcorns owes to the curious convergence of my amateur interest in linguistics and my re-enforced awareness of the slippage in public education. I'm also intrigued by philosophical ideas about emergent phenomena, of which the eggcorn is a prime example. I almost forgot to mention my unrepentant love of puns and malapropisms.
Being fresh from a brief out-o-town get-a-way, I thought I'd hazard a Myers-Briggs test-drive. Lo, I'm an INTJ! That explains why I have difficulty maintaining a neutral and non-judgmental point of view. Wow, no perceptiveness, eh? Is that why I don't seem to be able to discover good eggcorns (or any, for that matter)? I'm still having lots of fun trying.
Interesting thread.
INTP, though I've occasionally tested near INTJ. A lot of us INT's, who I understand are pretty rare birds: 1% of the population each or something?
Grew up speaking both English and Spanish in a family that (several generations of us) loved word play. I have, for 25 years or so, been systematically collecting what I call "orthinologies" (cf. "We spent the whole summer in Florida word-botching"), and have over 15K entries in my databases. It'd be fun to go through and decide which ones are eggcornish in what degree, but I haven't time/energy to do it systematically. My immediate family have contributed many of those bloopers.
A linguist by training, live in Mexico and study Nahuatl and help Nahuatl speakers develop ways to use their language more fully. Lots of practical (applied) linguistics, but a reasonable amount of theoretical stuff too. My motto as a theorist is "Usually it will turn out that Grandma was right about that.") A lot of my colleagues have contributed to the orthinology collection as well. (Grandma was the one who observed, philosophically, about a dog of obviously mixed parentage, "Well, that one just occurred.") Have taught a good bit, mostly at college level.
Know a bit of Koiné Greek and smidgens of German, Latin, and a few other things.
I can't remember numbers long enough to avoid having to look at a phone number 3 times while dialing it. (I always got good grades in math, as long as it didn't have any arithmetic in it.) But misspellings and typos jump off the page at me. (Unless of course I wrote them, and am proofreading what I wrote …)
I love classical music, play the piano some (once I learned Chopin's 3rd Ballade, but I'd never play it in public), have played trumpet reasonably well. (Used to play 2-trumpet concertos with a friend who played tuba, like Roger I guess.) Enjoy choral singing.
Love building things with my hands, even doing mechanics (though I'm not very good at it. It runs strong in the family, however.) Computer stuff is generally fun. Read incessantly: the labels on the cleanser can in the bathroom if nothing else is available. Can cry over some poetry, other leaves me cold. Totally reprehensible taste for bad puns.
Married, 5 grown up kids scattered from Thailand to South Carolina, 6 grandkids. Mom and 9 siblings and a dozen-odd cousins still around. (Odd in both senses of the term, and not just the cousins, no doubt.)

*If the human mind were simple enough for us to understand,
we would be too simple-minded to understand it* .
Nice to see this thread resurrected, esp. since we seem to have a new crop of regulars now. I'm an INFP, like a few others here. I have worked as an editor, proofreader, copyeditor, both as an employee and as a freelancer. I also did a stint at Starbucks, which pushed the boundaries of my introversion (but I continued working in publishing also during that time).
Like someone else here related (sorry, can't remember who it was), my father, who was not college educated but was curious and interested and loved to read, LOVED to play with words, saying "chork pops" for pork chops, etc., and I inherited his love of spoonerisms and of words themselves. He taught me to read at a very early age by helping me sound out words; I can remember sitting in the car in the Kroger (grocery store) parking lot sounding out signs with him while my mother shopped.
I'm a musician, sometime composer, and occasional singer, and am happily partnered. I do a great deal of freelance proofreading and copyediting. I'm always a bit mystified by the linguistic terms many of you throw out, though I'm enjoying learning more about linguistics from you. I'm here more for the love of words than anything else, which is reflected in some of my postings, such as the one about "Words you read and understood…"

Feeling quite combobulated.
We are a closed-mouth bunch, aren't we? At least when it comes to autobiography and pictures.
Members of this forum would have no problem tracking me down. My electronic footprints go way back-I was diddling with the internet a decade before Time Magazine discovered it in 1995. This, added to the fact that I own a one-off name, means that it's hard to hide in the digital bushes. I fantasize a lot about setting up a false internet identity and living in it for the rest of my life, but for now anyone who can type "Kem Luther" into a Google search box can find me. Most of the 200 ghits are me or someone pretending to be me.
From the age of six to the age of forty-five I was enrolled somewhere as a student. Here and there I was mailed a diploma. The academic degree most relevant to this forum is one in classics. I have worked with several dead languages—Latin and classical Greek, Hebrew and Aramaic. I can do basic human stuff (order meals, find the bathroom, read Nietzsche) in French, German and Spanish. Which only leaves me 9994 ancient and modern languages to learn. Gotta get cracking.
I was born in the U.S, but moved to Canada as a young man. I've lived in Nebraska, Illinois, Wisconsin, Virginia, Ontario and British Columbia. I spent most of my employed years teaching in colleges and universities (philosophy and computer science) or doing college admin. Fifteen years ago I discovered that I liked to write non-academic pieces. Now I spend most of my time writing large books and editing them down to small articles. When I'm not writing, I'm groveling before publishers and agents, trying to get them to look at my stuff.
The real me, though, is not well defined by the sort of entries you find on a CV. I'm deeply embedded in a family context-I live on an acre of lush Vancouver Island farmland with a group of seven other people to whom I am related by marriage, blood or adoption. I've been married to a musician for forty years and we have two grown daughters. I think we are a functional family, but now and then I begin to have doubts. My wife won't let me hang my diplomas on our wall, for example, and my children won't friend me in Facebook. I spend a lot of time with my five-year old grandson, Finn, who has no issues with his Grandpa, and we talk and talk and talk. The company of adults is greatly overrated.

Hatching new language, one eggcorn at a time.
Random facts: I'm a librarian who rarely finishes a book, and I'm also a Columbia Teachers College grad student who should be researching a paper that is due very soon. I procrastinate and perseverate beyond belief. I'm a Francophile. I ask questions that shouldn't be asked at the dinner table.
Oh, and I think I deserve some sort of recognition for seemingly being the only one out here to post an avatar.

Late last night I decided to get through a bit more of Act I, working my way up to the second boss – The Spider Queen.
Not too bad a fight, even though I had to get through quite a lot of spiders just to get up to that bit. I was very glad to have that section completed though.
A pretty ugly mask if you ask me but Effy had me all excited by her dye post yesterday. Not only can you colour your gear but you can hide certain pieces too. OMG! Let me at the dye lady!!
Today I logged back in and one thing was on my mind. Where are the Dyes? I asked Coolidge and he told me that they could be bought from one of the vendors out the back. Arghus the Collector in Act I will sell them under his 'Miscellaneous' items tab.
Look at that, another achievement. They seem to be frequent in this game, not that I'm complaining :)
So first thing of course was to hide the helm. I bought one of each colour just to save for later but decided on using the blue for my chest and gloves. In Act II, you can buy some dyes from Squirt the Peddler in the Bazaar.
Unfortunately I still haven't settled on a banner design I like, although every few levels you get some new additions to the shape or icons, etc.
I admit I didn't know anything about The Butcher before the last encounter as I wanted to be surprised. The only thing I was warned about was to watch my feet. On the way to find the Butcher you'll fight a lot of mobs in the dungeons with very hot grates and lava shooting up from time to time. This is what you'll be watching for during the final encounter in Act I.
I'll admit here that I died the first time as he has an ability to pull you in with his meat hooks and then hit you hard if you're still in melee range. The first time I died, he managed to get a hard hit on me while I was trying to run out of the molten grates at the same time. I did manage to get him past 50% though so I was pleased with that first effort.
After that first death, Cool told me to look out for two of the healing wells on the back left and right wall. I have to say both of those came in very handy during the fight. You can also tell which grates are about to be 'no standing zones' as they glow just before they start burning.
So once you get the hang of that and get range on him just after his meat hook ability you should be fine. Again Diamond Skin and Ice Armour came in handy for this one.
Just look at those goodies :)
Now see you in Act II.

Orrin R. Onken - Elder Law Attorney
I am an elder law lawyer who represents Oregonians facing legal problems related to aging and death. Most of my practice involves appearing in Oregon's probate courts. I use the probate courts to establish guardianships and conservatorships for elders suffering from dementia. I help families administer trusts and estates after the death of a parent. I challenge wills and defend wills that are being challenged. I file cases against misbehaving trustees, and bring or defend cases brought under Oregon's financial elder abuse statutes.
When not in court, I use my probate experience to write practical plain-English wills and trusts. I meet with families to help them understand Medicaid and develop strategies to pay for long term care. I establish trusts that protect public benefits for the disabled, and advise families about safe methods for for managing the financial affairs of a disabled elder.

When Edith Windsor exited the Supreme Court after nearly two hours of arguments March 27 on the constitutionality of Section 3 of the Defense of Marriage Act, a roar erupted among the hundreds of marriage-equality supporters who had gathered outside. "Edie! Edie!" the crowd chanted, waving rainbow flags alongside American flags.
The 83-year-old lesbian widow at the heart of one of two landmark gay marriage cases before the Supreme Court strode over to a horde of reporters and television cameras looking frail, but as confident as ever. With several pages of a prepared statement in one hand, she crumpled them up.
Justices of The U.S. Supreme Court
(Illustration by Scott G. Brooks)
"Hi, I'm Edie Windsor and somebody wrote me a large speech, which I'm not going to make," she said. "I wanted to tell you what marriage meant to me."
Speaking about the more than four decades she spent with her late wife, Thea Spyer, Windsor offered her unique definition of marriage. "It's a magic word," Windsor said. "For anybody who doesn't understand why we want it and why we need it, it is magic."
It was difficult to find anyone on the steps of the Supreme Court last week who didn't use the word "hero" to describe Edie Windsor. Windsor's fortitude in the face of the institutional injustice inflicted against her following the death of the love of her life has captured much of the country's attention, something Americans of any orientation, gender or generation have connected with.
Windsor has been challenging the Defense of Marriage Act since 2010, following Speyer's death in February 2009. She is suing to recoup about $363,000, the federal estate tax she was forced to pay on her "inheritance" from Spyer. The federal government does not tax wealth that passes to a surviving heterosexual spouse.
Living most of their lives in New York City's Greenwich Village, Windsor and Spyer were engaged to marry in 1967. Instead of an engagement ring, Spyer gave Windsor a circle pin adorned with diamonds so as to keep their relationship a secret. Windsor wore that same pin in court March 27. The long engagement was finally sealed in May 2007 with a Canadian marriage license, as Spyer's health began to deteriorate. Overwrought with grief following Spyer's death, Windsor suffered a heart attack. As she recovered, however, she began to realize the injustice of her situation. Even though New York recognized the couple's marriage, because of Section 3 of DOMA, which prohibits federal recognition of same-sex marriage, the federal government treated Windsor and Spyer as legal strangers.
"The story of Edie Windsor is an unbelievably compelling and unfair story," said former Republican National Committee Chair Ken Mehlman, who came out in 2010 and helped organize the brief filed in the Proposition 8 case – the challenge to California's same-sex marriage ban – signed by more than 100 GOP leaders.
And it's the story of Windsor fighting back, winning in district court and the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, as well as winning the hearts of nearly everyone she has met. Outside the high court, Windsor had rock-star status.
"There are a lot of people there who came to see me," Windsor told reporters apologetically before excusing herself to greet the throngs of supporters gathered at the bottom of the Supreme Court steps. "I just want to go see them."
Blowing kisses, Windsor spread her arms in an open embrace of the crowd as photographers captured what will undoubtedly be one of the movement's most iconic images: the elderly lesbian widow who sued the United States government, dressed in a dark pinstripe suit with a vibrant pink scarf around her neck, looking joyous with her arms outstretched on the steps of the nation's highest court.
