Have you ever wondered what it takes to become an NRA-Certified Rifle Instructor? It takes Knowledge, Skill, and Attitude. If you have all three, you may be a good candidate for the next Instructor Development Workshop (IDW).
Oftentimes, an NRA-Certified Rifle Instructor is the first point of contact for a new shooter looking to learn about the shooting sports. That is an awesome responsibility to have. A good instructor will have a good approach to training, and possess a desire to help the new student succeed.
Rochester Personal Defense, LLC now has certified NRA Training Counselors that can teach new instructors to carry on the NRA tradition of providing safe gun-handling skills and education to the public. Our instructional methods have been used to create well-rounded students and instructors for other subjects and organizations.
Rochester Personal Defense, LLC will be scheduling Rifle Instructor Development Workshop classes regularly. If you are interested in becoming an NRA Instructor in pistol, rifle, shotgun, personal protection, and more, please contact us and we will let you know how to get involved.
All candidates must attend the NRA Basic Rifle course as a student and pass the required Pre Course Assessment. The Pre Course Assessment is given prior to the actual instructor training. This takes approximately 2-3 hrs and costs 75.00.
Subjects Covered: How to instruct students in the NRA's Basic Rifle curriculum
If you are a new instructor candidate, you must also attend the Basic Instructor Training (BIT) workshop as a prerequisite to this workshop. Contact us as we can schedule the BIT separately or in conjunction with the specific module training.

Tuesday 31st May
Exercise: Weights, Situps Food Intake: Breakfast: Porridge with Banana Morning Tea: Muesli Bar Lunch: Chicken Curry with Brown Rice, Rice Crackers, Roll of Fruit Mentos Dinner: 1 Sausage I ate a whole packet of Salt & Vinegar Rice Crackers today. Just munched my way through the whole lot. What am I doing??? And the sugar cravings still haven't passed yet. Dinner was a non event due to the amount of rice crackers I'd shoved in my mouth this afternoon. Crappy day all round really. And I got on the scales this morning......rolls eyes toward ceiling. It's gotta stop now - this lack of willpower to eat properly. Why can't I just think that I'm still doing detox and stay within my boundaries when it comes to food?? Okay, lets focus again!

Creation or evolution, it's just a peripheral subject
Apart from such sentiments betraying a really impoverished understanding of who God is and an even more defective ability to read plain Scripture, it also reveals an indifference to the cost of believing something which is patently false. Bad ideas have bad consequences, and the epistemological standard that there are some areas of thought about which one can believe anything, would seem to be a principle uniquely identified with the postmodern left rather than a tag attached to the supposed conservatism of the Sydney Anglicans.
Yet, here it is, the idea that God can do anything he well pleases to do because he is God. God, according to Peter Jensen, can even give up being Creator and allow non-being, chance, to run the universe. This is far worse than deism because at least with this proposal God is still sitting on his throne whereas, with Jensen's idea, he vacates heaven and takes a holiday to goodness knows where and allows the pagan immanent no-thing to, somehow, bring things into being.
The unexamined insistence that belief in evolution poses no genuine threat to faith and that there is no parlous fallout from holding such an idea is perhaps even more disturbing than Jensen's belief in the idea itself.
Herbert Spencer, the wicked mastermind behind Social Darwinism (the belief that the weak should die off for the strong), reveals in his autobiography that,
"Doubtless my intellectual leaning towards belief in natural causation everywhere operating, and my consequent tendency to disbelieve alleged miracles, had much to do with my gradual relinquishment of the current creed and its associated story of creation – a relinquishment which went on insensibly during early manhood. Doubtless, too, a belief in evolution at large was then latent; since, little as the fact is recognised, anyone who, abandoning the supernaturalism of theology, accepts in full the naturalism of science, tacitly asserts that all things as they now exist have been evolved…"
Spencer, it could be reasonably argued, was the intellectual drive behind compulsory sterilisation of the disabled, the Pro-Choice movement, disregard for Afro-American welfare and other less fortunate groups, and a belief that social welfare and community health programs were positively harmful. What sustained this philosophy was, in part, his disdain for the miraculous of the Genesis creation account and his upholding of evolution.
Peter Jensen and others in the Sydney Anglican cult believe that they can have God doing anything, even the inanely impossible, and not have it produce any inimical consequences. That, I wish to emphasise, demonstrates an arrogance and an utter absence of wisdom. As I previously said, all ideas have consequences and the idea that God could, would, use a principle in which the weak die off for the strong, can't be an idea that would lead people to the God that was revealed in Christ.
"The proof of God's amazing love is this: that it was while we were sinners that God died for us." (Romans 5:8)

au contrere! Sydney Episcopalians being thorough-going Calvinists believe that God is Omniscient and Omnipresent. They therefore hold that God knows in advance what is will happen and nothing happens without God having planned for it.
Yet many such as the Archbishop hold to that evolutionary, chance (or intelligence guiding chance) death and struggle world view John has pointed out.
I don't know how they sort it all out because it really is a bowl-of-spaghetti theology and of no use to the lost.

Yes, throw in the Calvinist theology and it really transforms into a salad.
However, my point - and I'm still working this through - was that if you are an evolutionist then you believe there is an independent creative principle "in" nature that creates new biological information. One can't just say that God creates this everytime but it's evolution doing it. That's semantic nonsense. It's either a principle or it's God. Paul was very clear when he stated that it is Christ who is the upholding principle of the creation, not another principle. Jensen's creation theology is plainly further evidence of the paganisation of Christianity that SADs are now pushing.

John, as you said "it is Christ who is the upholding principle of the creation" so if in all he said and did when Incarnate was the upholding of the weak then how can Theistic Evolutionists within the Diocese appropriate to Him a creating and sustaining of creation activity alien to his observed activity. As our Lord Jesus said "If a kingdom is divided against itself, that kingdom cannot stand."
What an absurd theological position is taken up by a now degraded Diocese.
I really do worry about the future for the Sydney Anglican Diocese.
Is anyone from within it bold enough to venture here an explanation for their theology? - an explanation I hope is consistent with the Word of God.

There are a couple more things to say, on this, I think.
Firstly, it says that starting point of salvation history doesn't have to have anything to do with the real world, in which, oddly, salvation history is played out, or that God cannot, or does not want to or need to reveal that there is a direct link between us and him. It says that we can be disconnected from God, with the link but a pretence, reflected in tales, myths, not the texture of the real.
Secondly, it puts between God and his putative creation something other than Christ, in fact, the creation, cosmos, 'nature' rather than the creator in Christ.
The idea that we can put Genesis 1 to one side, in its real terms, pulls apart much of how we understand God and his covenental relationship with us.

|Re: Maven and JPA/EclipseLink Configuration...
|Wed, 10 Jul 2013 17:30:15 GMT
I agree with a lot of the JCP description of the deployer role. I also think that they are oriented to a small portion of the deployment world. Most of the time the person doing deployments has a third party product from a vendor and does not have the source code and does not even have any documentation other than what the vendor provides. I agree with the separation of church and state that they advocate for internally developed applications. I have always recommended that developers who are doing both roles (in small and medium shops), try to remember which hat they are wearing when working at the border of development and deployment. The developer should deliver something that can be deployed in the supported environment by someone who is an expert in the operating environment but not a programmer and certainly not an expert is the middleware on which the system is built. I will stick with my recommendation that the best way to support multiple deployment configurations in a commercial product, is an interactive installer that, at deployment time, can tweak or select from a set of configuration files included in the artifacts. These artifacts should be developed by Maven. Creating individual Maven artifacts for each deployment combination will result in a set that doubles (or more) each time an option is added.

Navy IA Combat Training at Fort Jackson (Camp McCrady), SC.
Summary: Main emphasis is basic marksmanship skills on the M-16. Also, gear issue, convoy and urban ops familiarization. Some basic courses in Arab culture awareness, first aid in a combat environment and land navigation. Live in a 35-person barracks, eat in a mess hall, no transportation into town, march around in formation. Here is where we get tied to our weapon(s).
Unstated purpose: Get Navy people used to Army discomfort.
Special challenge for my class of 300: no-kidding heat wave. Temperatures hit 109 and the humidity kept sweat from evaporating. Hottest temperatures recorded in Columbia in 3 years.
Camp Virginia, Kuwait. Main purpose is in-processing into theater, and for most, a "field trip" to the Udari Range (see below).
Description: Very sand, barren land that feels like the end of the world, except there is a McDonald's. Extremely hot and dry this time of year. Trailers and other temporary buildings. Live in a 10-person tent, sleep on a cot, all toilets are outside (some variant of porta-potty, some have running water). Showers are a walk to a trailer which is (thank goodness) air-conditioned. USO is nice.
Udari Range, Kuwait. More rifle training, convoy training.
Description: Even hotter, no running water anywhere (food and bottled water is trucked in), no McDonald's, no chow hall, just MREs. Vast, barren, emptiness in the middle of God-forsaken nowhere.Two nights sleeping on plywood floor in tent. Mixed-gender. 5 porta-potties service about 500-600 people. Best part is driving around in a humvee for several hours.
Unstated purpose: appreciation of Army discomfort.
I received some more training upon arrival in Baghdad, but I won't go into detail. Baghdad is hot, but slightly humid and has a breeze. Trees! There are eucalyptus and palm trees and some parts are quite nice. Like the areas where Saddam used to hang out.
Some notes on this training that may be helpful if you ever plan on being a Navy Individual Augmentee (IA):
- Keep a sense of humor.
- Fort Jackson can get very, very hot and humid in August. There was actually a fatality due to heat exhaustion over on the Basic Training side of the base.
- Kuwait is awful, at least what we saw of it. Hot, with blowing dirt.
- Compared to Kuwait (Camp Virginia, Udari Range) the Victory Base Complex at Baghdad is the land of milk and honey. So, things will get better. That is, if you go there, and not somewhere bad.
- Keep a sense of humor.
- One of the benefits of this training is that you will appreciate everyday conveniences and truly appreciate those soldiers over here in Iraq who go without them daily, for months at a time. There are soldiers who live in their Humvees for days at a time.
- Keep a sense of humor.
Some misc. notes, comparisons and perceptions re: Navy IA training:
Good: Clean porta-potty (smells like chemicals, floor not wet) with TP and hand sanitizer
Better: Flushing latrine closet thing, with sink, mirror
Best: The "Cadillac," which is an air conditioned (!) trailer with flushing toilet stalls and a bank of sinks
Learning Point: There is a perfect size for each working party to achieve maximum effectiveness. A larger group just means more work as 600 seabags pass through 120 pairs of hands just so everyone is "helping."
Best Tip: Put sock tops over boot openings to prevent overnight nestings.
Nature Discovery: Beetles grow to be quite large in this part of the world.
Another Nature Discovery: Mice like peanut butter, so don't leave it in your pocket
Fashion Tip: Use Leatherman or Gerber tool to cinch up side adjustment on body armor, thus reducing shoulder pain by more evenly distributing 80 lbs.
Biggest Fear: Being shot in head by inept Army personnel on Udari Range
Most Surreal Moment: Pausing convoy training while 50 camels exercise their right of way.
Second Most Surreal Moment: Fresh off C-17 in Baghdad, riding bus to tents, Chris Christopherson's "Sunday Morning Coming Down" plays on bus radio. It is indeed Sunday morning. In Baghdad.
Best Issued Items:
- "Sleep System" – warm or cool, it works. All you need is a little pillow. Stuffs in sack to tiny dimensions.
- Camelbak – 3L, used daily, probably literally saved lives
Worst Issued Item:
Entrenching Tool, otherwise known as a "shovel". Serves only to make one of your four seabags weigh even more and you can't get rid of it till the end of your IA. Probably only issued to make us nervous.
Best Personal Items (bought by individual):
- Croc slide-ons – shower shoes that can handle a gravel hike
- Belleville boots -- get a pair of boots you like early and start breaking them in. I had zero blisters. There aren't as many rules about what you can and can't have as you'd think.
- Don't forget the 55 SPF sunblock! The spray-on type by Neutrogena prevented aging, cancer, instant combustion. Also a small tube of sunblock that can hook on to your Camelbak is good.
- Purell. Don't leave home without it.
Best Comfort Items:
- Zune, loaded with loving care, was photo album and jukebox on long flight and other waiting times, helped me drift to sleep.
- Soduko book, mostly used during many lulls at Fort Jackson, hard to destroy.
- Cool-tie. Google it. God Bless Betsy and all who make these.
- Hand-knit wash cloth; cotton yarn feels great, and reminds me of Mom every time I use it — Camel motif apropos.
Worst Moment: Camp Virginia. Deep despair upon arriving at shower, after 24+ hours of travel and working party, undressed, in shower, but water does not work.
2nd Worst Moment: Midday, finally drifting to sleep in tent at Camp Virginia, A/C goes out. Tent is almost instantly uninhabitable.
3rd Worst Moment: Returning from Udari Range, I am actually able to smell myself.
Best Moments:
- Passing through Bangor, Maine on the flight out to Kuwait, the Maine Greeters were there at 3:45am to make us feel welcome and appreciated
- Stray dog at Udari range lying on top of pile of discarded ice
- Arriving in Baghdad, someone was there to meet us, with my name on a list
- Finally getting to talk to loved ones on the phone and "downloading" all my adventures.
How Previous Experience Prepared Me for Navy IA Training:
- SERE: Always I'm too hot or too cold; sleeping on ground with 50 smelly guys, being absolutely filthy
- 9.5-month deployment on USS Lincoln: Dealing with, shall we say, "personalities"
- Quantico, Va. (4 weeks of Marine Leadership Training): Having a formation every hour or so, for which you need to be 20 minutes early, parasitic M-16 on person 24/7, cranky drill sergeants, being absolutely filthy
- Hurricane Ivan: Everything you own is dirty, transient living, immeasurable joy at the sight of electricity and running water, being absolutely filthy
Well, that's it for now. Expect future posts to be shorter, more regular, and probably less dramatic.
Remember, this is just Navy IA Training and is a small taste of what others endure daily. Keep the Army and Marines in your prayers. Most of us will never know what these troops go through, nor the good they do, nor their everyday heroism. Also, while my stint here is only 9-10 months, most of the soldiers will be here for at least 15 months.

Consultation : Inheritance Tax : Simplifying Charges on Trusts – the next stage Consultation document published by HMRC on 31 May 2013
Consultation : Inheritance Tax : Simplifying Charges on Trusts – the next stage
Inheritance Tax: Simplifying Charges on Trusts – the next stage
Consultation document published by HMRC on 31 May 2013
The Association of Corporate Trustees (TACT) is the membership organisation of the UK corporate trustee sector. Its members include trust companies owned by banks and major financial institutions as well as those set up by firms of accountants, lawyers and pension advisors. Those trust companies are responsible for the management of over £1 trillion worth of assets, including sovereign and other debt of over £900 million and occupational pension funds with in excess of 1.25 million members, representing over 10% of that sector
Members of TACT provide trustee services to a wide private client base, ranging from individuals who wish to ring-fence their modest accumulations of wealth for the benefit of their children (perhaps after a second marriage); to families with substantial wealth who view themselves merely as custodians for future generations; and many in between who might be seeking to protect the family from imprudent relationships and/or extravagant spending
TACT supports the stated aim of HMRC to improve the way in which inheritance tax is to be calculated, whilst being fiscally "neutral", and in simplifying the way it is returned.
Having considered the proposals, TACT does not consider them to be neutral, nor to deliver fairness in the eventual outcome.
Whilst the adoption of a fixed rate of tax has the look of creating simplicity, it would not appear to be neutral. The rate of 6% represents the maximum rate of tax that could be charged under the present regime and appears to take no note of the potentially significant cost saving to HMRC in the introduction of a simplified arrangement.
TACT welcomes the proposals to remove the need to obtain historic information, that may often not be readily available, and the need to take into account details of non-relevant property when calculating the inheritance tax liability. However, we are concerned that by requiring that any calculation include all trusts created by the settlor and in existence within the 10 years before a periodic charge is due is merely replacing one set of difficulties with another.
Many individuals have settled life policies in trust, mainly due to them being advised that it is better to do so as upon their death the proceeds can be immediately available, say, to meet the living expenses of the family until probate is issued and the estate administered, or to pay inheritance tax due on the grant application without the need to borrow from banks, etc. The understanding that this is a trust situation may often be overlooked. Similarly, settlors may lose sight of pilot trusts created to receive death benefits should the settlor die within a certain period. Even if settlors are aware of these trusts, the trusts will be of a purely nominal value (perhaps £10) until such time as the life policy falls in, or the trustees of the pension scheme decide to exercise their discretion in favour of the pilot trust trustees (if at all). The existence of these small value trusts can result in a trust which would otherwise be well within the nil rate band, and thus not liable to inheritance tax, being brought well within the tax net. Where such changes affect trusts that have existed for some little time, this cannot represent fairness in taxation and may well undermine confidence of the public generally in the way in which their estates may be taxed.
The Government has repeated on a number of occasions that it intends to tax trusts in a way that would result in the revenues from trusts representing the revenues that would have been received had the property remained in the original settlor's estate. These proposals appear to further undermine that assertion.
The proposals seem to conflict with this stated aim, in that :
• they impose tax on trusts which have not previously been liable to tax (and which the settlors have been encouraged to have reasonable expectations that they will continue to be free of tax whilst they remained within the nil rate band), and
• whilst masquerading as "clarification", the proposal to deem the accumulation of undistributed income increases the inheritance tax change whilst creating a stranded tax pool, thus preventing beneficiaries from obtaining a refund of tax to which they may otherwise be entitled.
With the second bullet point, as well as giving rise to double taxation, putting tax law and trust law into conflict, and creating new levels of complexity in trust administration, the proposal would also need changes to the income tax provisions. We address this point more fully in answering the specific questions below
We note that various elements of the calculation of inheritance tax under the proposals mirror the provisions of the current regime, without properly considering the impact this has. This is particularly evident in looking at example 7 (page 18)
• under both the current and proposed regimes, where a distribution has been made an exit charge will apply and, when calculating the next periodic charge, the nil rate band will be reduced by the amount of such distribution
• the current regime provides for the reduced NRB to be used to calculate the estate rate – applied to the value remaining in the trust as at the date the periodic charge is due in order to calculate the IHT charge (generally, a relatively small uplift)
• however, under the proposed regime, any reduction in the NRB will feed through directly to the calculation of the IHT liability, so that there will be a 6% tax charge on the amount by which the NRB is reduced
• as a result of this, any capital distribution is subject to tax both at the time of its exit and on the next periodic charge which, surely, cannot be HMRC's intention, nor represents "fairness" in taxation.
Other aspects that we consider should be included as a part of any simplification exercise are :
• removal of what is often described as the "Frankland Trap". The "trap" operates in a number of ways :
(i) it denies the ability for capital gains to be held over on assets leaving a trust within 3 months after the due date of a periodic charge. Since March 2006 a life interest trust may be a relevant property trust and, statistically, 1 in 40 life interest trusts will cease on the death of the life tenant within 3 months after the due date of the periodic charge. What logical basis is there for denying the benefit of hold-over relief in such cases?;
(ii) to enable flexibility to take account of the family circumstances applying following their death, many testators direct that their estates be held on short term discretionary trusts. However, as a result of the "trap" if any payment is made to their surviving spouse or civil partner within the 3 months after death, relief under s.18 IHTA will be denied to that payment. It is understood that the "trap" was originally introduced to prevent abuse of the CGT hold over by the manipulation of assets gifted into lifetime trusts, and that the effect on estates following the death of an individual may be an unexpected consequence
• there is an increasing use of trusts by individuals who have received substantial funds for personal injuries suffered, or are potentially vulnerable and wish to set their assets up in a trust structure to protect their wealth from various eventualities. Following the changes in 2006, the range of options is significantly limited and creating a Disabled Persons Interest is not always appropriate. Any other such trust created by an individual will be both a relevant property trust and subject to the gift with reservation rules. TACT believes it would be appropriate for those trusts subject to the gifts with reservation rules not to be treated as relevant property trusts. By applying only the gift with reservation rules, the trust will be taxable as though it remains a part of the settlor's estate, which reflects the stated aim of Government.
TACT asks that these issues also be addressed as a part of the proposed simplification
We now address the specific questions raised in the Consultation Paper
ANSWERS TO HMRC's QUESTIONS
Questions on the simplification of IHT trust charges
1: Do these proposals meet the objective of reducing complexity and administrative burdens and in what way(s)?
1.1 the proposals go some way to meeting the stated objectives. However, the provisions relating to the sharing of the nil rate band and the deemed accumulation of income will add new layers of complexity and, so far as the latter is concerned, give rise to conflict between tax law and trust law
2: Does a single rate of 6% present any difficulties, particularly for smaller trusts?
2.1 the principle of a single rate of tax is generally seen as providing benefits, so long as the structure for calculating the liability also makes sense.
2.2 the suggested rate of 6% looks rather high, mindful that it replicates the existing rate (30% of the lifetime rate) and makes no allowance for the significant cost saving which will accrue to HMRC as a result of the simplification
2.3 it is not clear if HMRC has merely adopted the maximum rate chargeable under the current regime, or has undertaken any modelling to arrive at the 6% figure. Mindful that the current proposal will effectively remove the nil rate band currently available to many relevant property trusts, to take into account the potential increase in receipts, and the reduction in HMRC's own administration costs, we would suggest a single rate of 4% might be more appropriate. If the proposed structure of the new regime is altered, as suggested above, the potential tax flow will need to be remodelled
3: How much time would the simplified method save trustees and practitioners, on average per trust?
3.1 it is difficult to provide a simple answer to this question. Whilst under both the current and the proposed regimes, some trusts will clearly fall outside of the charge, the changes are likely to result in many trusts which would have been subject to charge at the nil rate becoming liable to actually pay tax. This will inevitably increase the work, rather than reduce it.
3.2 2 simple examples to highlight the point at 3.1 are :
a) settlor 1 – in 2005, creates a discretionary trust (DT) with £150,000; in 2009, creates a pilot trust (PT) with £10 to receive death benefits from pension fund; in 2015 PT still £10 & DT valued @ £287,500 – under current regime IHT periodic charge is nil, but nil rate band sharing results in DT being charged to IHT on £125,000 (£7,500)
b) settlor 2 – in 1998, creates discretionary trust (DT) with £100,000; 2011 creates relevant property trust (RPT) with £250,000; in 2018, DT valued @ £312,500 – whilst again, under current regime IHT periodic charge is nil, under the new proposals the nil rate band sharing results in DT being charged to IHT on £150,000 (£9,000)
3.3 the time spent by practitioners and trustees in completing the return could be significantly reduced if the return form IHT100 were to be redesigned. At present it is a multi-purpose document and is not fit for purpose. TACT understands that HMRC has indicated it may consider revising the IHT100 and urges it to do so as an element of the simplification procedure
4: Will there be significant costs to trustees and practitioners familiarising themselves with the new system and if so can you quantify these?
4.1 as with any change in procedure, there will need to be a period of re-training and familiarisation. The costs of this will inevitably be passed on to the "consumer", in this instance the various trust beneficiaries
4.2 the level of costs incurred will depend greatly upon the final structure and processes which are put in place
4.3 if the final process is a significantly simplified version of the current regime, and the format of the return is changed so that it is easier (and more intuitive) to complete than the IHT100 (which we understand is accepted as not being "fit for purpose"), this will help offset the costs incurred in re-training, etc. and, therefore, the cost impact on the "consumer"
5: Do HMRC's proposals in paragraphs 54 – 58 on the way in which the nil-rate band should be split for ten year and exit charges provide the right balance between fairness and the risk of manipulation?
5.1 No
5.2 whilst the sharing of the nil rate band could reduce the risk of manipulation, the application to all relevant property trusts in existence, whenever created causes significant unfairness. Taxpayers will have organised their affairs in reliance upon the tax code that existed at the time such arrangements were put in place. What is proposed is not an adjustment to that code but a radical overhaul. Whilst it might be categorised as "retro-active", the effect is to charge to IHT arrangements set up many years ago for non-tax purposes and which continue to fulfil such purposes
5.3 if any variant of the proposals were to be adopted, the way in which the nil rate band is shared for the first periodic charge will need to be reviewed. Para 55 identifies that "under a more simplified regime" "all relevant property trusts made by the settlor and in existence at any time between the date the trust concerned was set up and the time of the charge". Whilst this might not been seen to pose an issue where the trust concerned has at all times been a relevant property trust, significant issues arise where, say the trust was created some 30 or 40 years ago as an interest in possession trust and, following the death of the life tenant (or person entitled to a transitional serial interest – TSI), has only recently fallen into the relevant property regime. In such cases, we suggest the sharing of the nil rate band should be limited by reference only to the period during which it has been a relevant property trust
6: Are there any other ways that the nil-rate band could be split that would not risk a loss to the Exchequer?
6.1 in considering this question, it seems to us that the way in which the nil rate band proposals will operate is likely to bring a windfall to the Exchequer, so that in looking at ways in which the proposals might be restructured, any comparison should be with the current position, rather than measured against the proposals
6.2 we note HMRC has provided no impact assessment in relation to the overall tax receipts under the current regime and under the proposed regime. The provisions of such a comparison would assist respondents in providing a considered response to this question
6.3 the present proposals take no account of the length of time that a trust has existed, nor the value within any such trust, so that the NRB will be shared between 2 trusts created 20 years apart (even though they would each have their own separate full NRB under the present regime), or if a trust of the full NRB is created and there already exists a £10 death benefit pilot trust created by the same settlor (however long ago). In the later instance, the pilot trust will only ever be of value if the settlor dies and the trustees of his pension scheme exercise their discretion in favour of the trustees
6.4 whilst TACT is supportive of some proposals for sharing the NRB, it considers that there should be both a de minimis limit for trusts being within the sharing mechanism, and that trusts created within a defined window only should be aggregated
6.5 there are many life policy trusts and pilot trusts in place, the existence of which will not have been disclosed to HMRC and some may not have been recorded by the settlor. Many years ago, HMRC Trusts decided that a 41G would not be required for life policy trusts until the life policy paid out, and then only if the trust was not fully distributed within 6 months. A similar situation was agreed for pilot trusts. This practice is reflected in TSEM1405. Without a suitable de minimis limit, HMRC will need to consider how it might obtain details of all such trusts in existence, and the level of resource that it will need to employ to obtain and maintain such information. Whilst trustees may ask living settlors for information, where settlors are without capacity, or have died, the ability to obtain details of any other trusts may not exist. Even where settlors are administratively efficient, and have maintained records of such arrangements (which can be multiple), that the trustees may well be different in each case will make the position more complex.
6.6 TACT recommends that the nil rate band sharing should apply only to those trusts created after a certain date, and that all trusts below a de minimis limit should be excluded. For trusts created before that date, the trusts might have the full nil rate band, reduced by the value of any chargeable gift(s) made by the settlor within the 7 years before the date of the gift into trust
6.7 where trusts have already been subject to the periodic charge, the trustee should have information on the settlor's cumulation as at the date of the settlement. For settlements which have not yet been subject to the first periodic charge, in the light of the 2006 Finance Act trustees of these are likely already to have obtained details of any cumulations in the knowledge that these would be required (or have satisfied themselves that the extent of any cumulative gifts was such that the trust would not become subject to the periodic charge other than at the nil rate)
6.8 if it is proposed to introduce nil rate band sharing in any event, there should be a limitation of the fractions into which it may be divided. For CGT purposes, this is set a one-fifth of the annual CGT allowance available to trustees and a similar floor level might be applied for IHT. However, this should be applied only to trusts created on or after the date upon which the provisions come into force
6.9 if the nil rate band is to be shared amongst trusts created before the date upon which the provisions come into force, the floor limit should be no less than a half share of the nil rate bad per trust
7: Would applying the new rules from a set date cause trustees and practitioners any difficulties?
7.1 As identified above, any new rules introduced should apply to trusts created on or after a certain future date
7.2 whilst the proposals were published on 31 May 2013, it would not be appropriate, or fair on taxpayers generally, to apply new rules for trusts created on or after that date without regard to the time it would take practitioners and intending settlors to understand the impact of any new rules which are to be implemented. Currently, many advisers are not aware of the current proposals and therefore persons creating settlements will not be doing so with knowledge of the current proposals
7.3 once HMRC has published definitive proposals, practitioners should have a reasonable time to become familiar with the new rules and apprise settlors, and intending settlors, of them. It is most unlikely that there will be any significant increase in new trusts as a result of taxpayers "rushing" to avoid being caught by the new rules
8: In what other way could the new rules be implemented?
8.1 trustees could have the right to elect into a flat rate inheritance tax regime with a lower rate of tax which could generate a greater level of take up
Questions on income that may be accumulated
9: Are there any issues with using this method as a practical way of dealing with accumulations?
9.1 Yes, whilst it is asserted in the Consultation Paper that there is a need to "clarify" the rules on accumulation, the creation of a deeming provision for the purposes of inheritance tax creates another layer of confusion rather than providing clarity
9.2 the use of deeming provisions adds another area of conflict between trust law and tax law – the position on the accumulation of income is clear in the light of the judgment in Pierce v. Wood (2010) and IHTM 42224
9.3 any "clarification" would apply only for IHT purposes and would not prevent trustees potentially acting in breach of trust (and could actively encourage this)
9.4 income received in a discretionary trust is subject to the Rate Applicable to Trustees. If income is deemed to be capitalised, then the income will become divorced from the tax pool. Accordingly, whilst currently a distribution of "retained" income may result in the recipient being entitled to a tax refund of up to 45% (i.e. 82% of the distribution made to them), if deemed capital, the trustee will be liable to pay an exit charge, of up to 6% of the amount distributed. This does not look like fair taxation
9.5 HMRC asserts that the last point above would be avoided by the trustee making regular income distributions. However, that may completely undermine the purpose of the trust, which may be to fund grandchildren's education (how does it stack up against the Children's Trust Funds that Government was promoting not that long ago). HMRC is effectively advocating the transfer of potentially significant amounts of income (relative to what the recipient might be used to handling) into the hands of minors/vulnerable people. This will distort behaviours, which the tax code should not do
9.6 if there is the automatic deeming of income to be accumulated, the consultation will need to be broadened to include considerations of the income tax considerations, as well, none of which are addressed in the Paper. If the deeming changes the nature of the income in a trustee's hands, so that it is to be treated as though it were capital, an undesirable effect will be the denial of tax refunds to beneficiaries who are basic, or lower, rate taxpayers
9.7 where income is deemed to be accumulated, rules will need to be introduced to identify the order in which it is deemed to be applied. For example, if a trust receives £100 a year income after RAT and a distribution of £300 is made in year 5, legislation will be needed to identify for tax purposes when the income is deemed to have been received and, based upon that, whether it is wholly an income distribution or partly a capital distribution (attracting an exit charge). Under trust law, it will all be income – it will only be the deemed accumulation for inheritance tax purposes that will cause part to be treated as capital if the trustees have not actively exercised their power to accumulate (assuming of course that they have such a power) This complicates matters further and gives rise to additional administrative burdens, including the need to separately identify, and keep records of, the residual (i.e. undistributed) income arising each year. Will trust accounts be sufficient to identify the separate years' accumulations?
9.8 it would seem that HMRC is acting in a way contrary to the assertion that it does not give legal advice to taxpayers, by attempting to use tax law to circumscribe the powers given to trustees under trust law (and as validly set out in the trust instrument)
10: Do you anticipate any additional administrative burden resulting from the proposed changes to the calculation of IHT on accumulated income? If so, what would you estimate to be the average cost per trust?
10.1 Yes, under the present proposal, trustees will need to maintain detailed records to identify if and when any income might be deemed to be capitalised for IHT purposes, and to identify how the rules impact upon any income distributions; any non-professional trustee will find these new proposals difficult to administer
10.2 the proposal will add yet another layer of complication to the administration of a trust – the administrative burden resulting from the proposed changes would be relieved by the proposed deeming of income to be accumulated being withdrawn
Questions on aligning filing and payment dates
11: Are there any issues with bringing IHT within the concept of Self-Assessment?
11.1 TACT welcomes the proposal to bring IHT within the scope of the Self-Assessment regime
11.2 TACT considers it would be beneficial for a similar regime to apply as for individual taxpayers, in that if returns are submitted by 31 October, HMRC will calculate the tax charge, with the tax being due on 31 January following
11.3 whilst there may seem to be benefit in the use of a single return form, perhaps with additional pages being available to disclose the details for the IHT to be assessed, in much the same way as for an individual to disclose income from a trust, the bringing together of all aspects of the taxation of trusts into a single return may well result in an increasingly cumbersome form, and increased workload at a time when many tax teams supporting trustee are already heavily employed
12: How much time will trustees and practitioners save as a result of the payment and filing dates being aligned with the SA framework?
12.1 this would normally be expected to save time, as it may be necessary only to collate the financial information for the trust once – to enable the composite return to be completed
12.2 it is difficult to identify the time savings that might be achieved, as this will be dependent upon the level of information required. If the alternative proposal we have put forward, above, were to be adopted, greater time will be saved
13: What would the impact be on trustees and practitioners' clients?
13.1 if the time to prepare returns is reduced, this should reflect in the costs to the underlying client trust
13.2 there will be a need for all to become aware of the new rules, whatever shape they take, and for practitioners to be able explain the benefits of any new arrangement
13.3 whilst the bringing of the IHT returns within Self-Assessment might be seen in a positive light, if it coincides with the imposition of potentially significant charges upon trusts that have previously benefitted from a full nil rate band, it is anticipated that this will have a negative impact upon the "clients"
13.4 under the new proposals, there is a significant compliance risk for trustees and those advising them, in identifying the trusts that exist, or have existed, at any time within the 10 years prior to a periodic charge. The aligned filing deadlines could also reduce the amount of time trustees have to collate information, putting additional pressure on both the trustees and settlors (to whom the trustees will need to turn for obtain information to complete the returns). The trustees may not be aware of other trusts created by the same settlor (and the settlor themselves might have forgotten some of the trusts that exist). HMRC may be aware of some trusts of which the trustee has no knowledge, or neither trustee nor, as a result of TSEM1405, HMRC may be aware of other trusts which exist. How will trustees be protected from the risk of innocent non-disclosure which might not become apparent before they have perhaps distributed the trust fund
14: Will alignment bring benefits to customers in terms of reduced fees?
14.1 alignment can, potentially reduce costs, provided that it is appropriately thought through with the information requirements and form to be completed actually being simplified
14.2 if HMRC is looking to benefit "customers" by creating a regime to reduce fees charged for dealing with IHT matters, a first step would be to revise form IHT100, separating out the various functions that this form is supposed to support, and thus making it easier to complete. In its current format, it can be daunting even for experienced practitioners to complete
Response from The Association of Corporate Trustees (TACT)
August 2013

A Sydney police officer who secretly filmed himself having sex with women then showed it off to his colleagues at the station has escaped a jail sentence.
In sentencing Senior Constable Marc Osborn, Magistrate Janet Wahlquist said his offences were in the mid-to-high-range of seriousness and she had considered a jail term.
But she also considered that the 42-year-old had no prior offences, had lost a profession he loved and had done a lot of charity work.
She sentenced him to 200 hours of community service.
"The behaviour you engaged in is not acceptable and the community abhors it," Ms Wahlquist said in Downing Centre Local Court on Monday.
"There is also evidence that you are someone who has contributed to the community."
Dressed in a black suit and with his hair slicked back, Osborn said nothing as he was sentenced.
Prosecutor Matt Karpin argued for jail time, telling the court that although Osborn had contributed to charity he had also used a news report highlighting his charitable activities to gain the trust of one of the victims when she went to his house.
Osborn used a clock fitted with a pinhole camera and a motion sensor bought from eBay, placed in his bedroom, to film explicit sexual encounters with three women he met on dating websites.
He then uploaded the videos to his computer and recorded them onto his iPhone to show his colleagues.
"(This was) to show you were a sexually competent and virile lover," Ms Wahlquist said.
Osborn has previously told the court that he wanted his younger colleagues to know "the old guy's still got it".
He was found guilty of three counts of filming a person engaged in a private act with the purpose of obtaining sexual gratification.
The crimes carry a maximum penalty of two years imprisonment.
Osborn has been suspended from the police force without pay but the court heard he had been receiving a hardship allowance for the past several weeks.

Everyone would like to manage their farm quickly, easily and efficiently. However, it is not easy to see through what is happening on hundreds of hectares, who works when and for how much.Further advantages Contact
If we know what problem might occur, we can react to it in time, there are no kilometres in vain, annoying off-times, wrong work processes.
The management system of AgroVIR covering the whole farmland, iMező, the data concentration and map visualization programme of iGazda, the Ro-Sys Logbox ISOBUS and CAN bus field data collector, and the Production Watch system and meteorological devices of AgroSense.
Enormous amount of data is produced each day. While creating AgroVIR, we had the goal to enable farmers to get information about production costs any time of the year. With the AgroVIR system first cost can be revealed, however, attaining data in a manual way is a lot of work, there is a risk of not having all the data in the system at the end. With this cooperation, the control electronics of a certain machine can send work operational costs directly to users.
Today we can consider iGazda as a collective name, as a so-to-say brand. We have integrated numerous developments into its frame, like Sorköz. A geoinformatical function called iMező is part of the iGazda framework. We have extended the list of sub-elements with modules like ISOBUS. With the latter, data coming from work devices can be processed and worked on in an office environment.
The two most frequent problems with former systems were the lack of a universal solution and "live" connection. Farmers must often use machines, devices of different manufacturers. The solutions of these different devices are unique and not standardized, so handling sub-elements as a whole is harder. ISOBUS compatible devices help to solve this problem. Among others, the solutions of RO-SYS are built on this too. We put a so-called LogBox component into power-machines that collect data from the CANBUS network of tractors and the ISOBUS network of implements about fuel consumption, speed or working hours for instance, but even about spraying speed and width of work.
Integrating this solution to the existing system brings a technological leap, which is utilized in increasing efficiency and in work organization. When we make a decision in the business management system, – for example about a certain employee's work done on a certain field – the system takes into account the data we have provided about weather, so does not send the worker to do spraying, because wind-force would make them unable to perform any plant protection tasks. A well-chosen sensor system, like AgroSense, which was developed in Hungary, provide farmers with correct and relevant data, it can handle cropland diversity and can produce calculated numeraries necessary for decisions.

How can I create a secure, password required link to my form for my website. I don't want just anyone to be able to open it.
I wish to create a password protected link to my form when I embed it on my webpage. How do I do this?
- JotForm SupportWelvinAnswered on September 16, 2014 at 04:06 PM
Do you mean to let user to enter the password first before they can open the form, right? And the password field is in the form? If yes, you can add a textbox field to your form that would serve as your password box, but I would advise using another term instead of "password". This term (password) will be filtered and there's a chance that our phishing filter will auto-suspend your account due to phishing reasons.
Now, you can use our conditional logic to predefine a password to the form. If the password match, they will be able to proceed and fill the form.
For example: http://www.jotformpro.com/form/42586381653967. Enter "1" without quotes in the authentication box. You will then see the Pagebreak to proceed to the next field.
The conditional logic is simply this:
Let us know if you need any further assistance implementing this one.

Initial impression: Motorola S10 HD bluetooth headphones
I just purchased the Motorola S10 HD headphones. This honestly was a first for me, not the buying of new electronics, but that I actually waited to get home to open my latest toy. The norm for me is to buy the said item, walk out to the car and immeadiately open the package. This time around I bought the headphones and calmly walked to the car and drove (for the most part) the suggested speed limit.
So anyway back to the reason we are hear; these headphones! I got home and opened the package which has the charger, the instruction booklet, three different sizes for the ear buds, and of course the headphones. I put the headphones for a few minutes to get a little bit of a charge in it before I played.
First thing I did was after connecting to my phone was test the range. I must say I am very impressed with how far away you can get away from your connected device before cutting out, 40-50 feet easy. The sound quality is quite good, so far there has only been a few glitches, but I attest that to the bluetooth connection. Also this particular unit allows you to recieve calls. The call quality isn't the best that I have heard, but they are headphones not a dedicated headset for calling. My Dad (who I used to test this with) was very surprised that I was using a bluetooth device to talk with. He said that I was very clear on his end, and that is with poor signal (edge network where I live).
The controls are very cleverly placed, almost undetectable if you didn't know they were there. The fit on my head is nice, if not just a little too snug. I haven't had a chance to try any of the other size ear buds as of yet. Overall these are very well made and well designed (my blog, my opinion). So if you are in the market for a nice bluetooth headphone, then I highly reccomend these.

One of my new favorite things is working in my new home office...I've relocated to the basement to have more space to layout drawings and guess what, its HAWT.
But, here's why its my new favorite, because every time I'm down here working, Jack is laying right beside me with a toy.
When I'm down here at night, he's curled up in a blanket on the floor next to me...and during the days he lays on top of my feet...I just love it :)
Even though our basement isn't finished, I've laid down several area rugs which helps give a more "homey" feeling, rather than the gray cement foundation. Its just a cool space to hang out in and be productive.
Oh, and guess what?! I've got a water-feature! You know, some offices have fountains to greet you in their entrance, right...I have my own version of a fountain. Our sump pump! haha...its not the most attractive piece to look at, but I tell you what, hearing the running water all afternoon is really soothing :)
Now Ke$ha just came on satellite, "your love, your love is my drug..."


text: In an exclusive conversation with ET Now, global market equity expert Adrian Mowat said "In the pharma space, we have moved away from some of the noise around US policy and perhaps as the policy environment becomes a little bit clearer, that will allow the companies with better new molecules to do well. I tends to be more attuned to looking at pharma rather than IT at this point in time if I am looking for exporters from India." Listen in!!!

As a native of Cambodia, Barnabas is one of only 200 Christians to survive the Killing Fields of Pol Pot. He joined AFCI in 2001 to develop the ministry in Cambodia.
Barnabas joined the Communist party as a teenager and was converted to Christ while spying on a Christian evangelistic meeting in the early 1970's. He was later arrested and sent to the Killing Fields where he spent four years in captivity. After his release Barnabas was forced to flee the country where he spent another eight years in a refugee camp in Thailand. After returning to Cambodia, Barnabas helped rebuild the church in his native land, and 500 churches have been planted since 1998. Moody Publishers has published his life's story in the book Church Behind the Wire.
In the development of the Church Planting Institute Cambodia (ICPC), Barnabas has written a number of courses in the Khmer language:
- Growing As A Disciple Of Jesus (Module 1)
- Growing As A Disciple-Maker (Module 2)
- Growing In The Grace Of Christ (Module 3)
- Growing As A New Covenant Minister (Module 4)
- The Parable Collection 1
- The Parable Collection 2
Barnabas is married to Boury. They have 9 children and step-children, 23 grandchildren and 18 great grandchildren.Download PDF of this Bio

The St Andrew's Hospice Midnight Walk takes place on Saturday which this year introduces a new route which starts and finishes at Ravenscraig Regional Sports Facility and goes through Carfin, New Stevenston, Holytown, Mossend and Motherwell.
The ladies-only event offers three distances to choose from - eight miles, ten miles or thirteen miles.
Among those taking part is Motherwell and Wishaw MP Marion Fellows who has been challenged to complete the longest circuit.
She said: "As an ambassador for St Andrew's Hospice, I felt I absolutely had to take part in the ladies' Midnight Walk.
"I have been practicing for weeks now and thankfully have had my office manager Fiona Fotheringham who challenged me to take part, to motivate me.
"St Andrew's Hospice provide a fantastic service to the community ensuring that terminally ill individuals can live their final days in comfort and dignity.
"There is still time to sign up, so I urge people to join me in taking up the challenge.
"Alternatively, if members of the community can spare a few pounds, I would like them to donate to my Just Giving page to help raise funds for this fantastic charity."

Be a part of your cooperative's leadership – Consider running for a director seat.
Hopefully, by now, you have noticed a couple of entries in this issue of the Neighbor on the subject of the upcoming board election. Every election is an important one because it's your chance to appoint the leadership of your cooperative, but this election holds something that is fairly uncommon, at least here at Nodak. Two of the three director positions decided in this election will not have an incumbent in the race.
We have three districts in our service territory with three directors elected from each district for a total of nine board members. All board members are elected for staggered three-year terms, so each year we have one position in each of the three districts up for election. This year, we have the unique situation where two directors are retiring from service on the board and not seeking reelection. District 1 Director Bruce Fagerholt and District 3 Director Donna Grotte have both made it known that their intention is not to seek reelection to the board of directors. Director David Kent will be running for reelection to his seat in District 2
Your board fulfills many vital roles for the cooperative. Not only are they the ultimate decision-makers when it comes to policy-driven initiatives for the cooperative, they are also the local connection to the membership. Board members represent our eyes and ears out in the service area. They bring back member concerns and suggestions, provide a local "neighbor" for you to discuss cooperative business with, and represent your interests at the board table.
If you have ever considered serving your cooperative through board governance, those of you living in Districts 1 and 3 have a unique opportunity. While board membership can be very challenging at times and certainly shouldn't be taken lightly, it can be a very rewarding experience. Your cooperative can only be as strong as the people who actively participate in it, so if you have a strong commitment to Nodak and a desire to serve, I would encourage you to consider running for a seat on the Nodak board. A position on the ballot can be obtained through nomination by the Nominating Committee, or by submitting a petition to the corporate offices. Please call the Grand Forks office if you would like more information on the process.
Also, please take note of the changes we've made to this year's Annual Meeting. For quite some time, the Annual Meeting has been held on the morning of the first Saturday in April. This year, we are moving the meeting to a Thursday evening. I know how schedules can be difficult to coordinate, especially with today's busy lifestyles. Undoubtedly, moving the meeting to Thursday night will make it difficult for some that usually attend, but hopefully it will also open the door for others to attend that have not been able to come on Saturday. Most importantly, we want as many of you as possible to come and participate in the Annual Meeting this year. I'm looking forward to seeing you all in Grand Forks this April.

My past
I remind myself that I am a strong, beautiful, caring, independent women. I take an honest look at what I have done the last four years, and I allow myself to feel a moment of pride. I am a walking miracle. I had people of strong, strong faith wondering how God was going to pull if off....But pull it off he did. I am a walking witness that God can do anything.
I am now stepping down from my soap box.
4 comments:
I had a moment of shame, fear, embarrassment, and sadness wash over me at my meeting last week. I know it was Satan, trying to convict me of sins I've been forgiven for. He always tries to throw my crap back in my face. I can't let him win!ReplyDelete
Yes, I too, am a walking miracle. Our God is big, BiG, BIG!

Emily, would you consider joining the on-line AA group "In the Rooms" and attending some on-line live video AA meetings? I would love to see you and hear your story with my own eyes and ears. These are global meetings so anyone who follows your blog would have the opportunity to learn more from you. You've been a role model, very inspirational and have helped me so much.ReplyDelete
Thank you...

Livingston, Texas - Escapees RV Club has announced its new RV education program, RVers Online University, is now open to the public. This web-based program brings the content of its acclaimed RVers' Boot Camp online, in an easy-to-access format.
This new online option makes it easier for RVers to take advantage of the expertise that created RVers' Boot Camp. With courses taught by industry experts such as Mac McCoy, Jim Koca, George Mayleben and Mark Nemeth, RVOU brings useful, reliable information to RVers anytime. Instructors teach a variety of RV-related topics, including driving safety, personal safety, tow hitches and safety, weight management, RV systems, 12v power and more, covering necessary information for safe operation and maintenance of an RV. Users can take, and retake, as many lessons as needed, as well as pertinent end-course assessments. Students also have direct access to instructors for follow-up questions. Courses on domicile, budgeting and similar RV lifestyle needs are planned for the near future.
"We often get requests to share our RVers' Boot Camp seminars online so that those who cannot attend can still access the education they provide," Escapees RV Club Marketing Director Georgianne Austin says. "It excites me that we're finally able to fulfill that request. Our instructors share more than 100 years of RV and safety experience between them. The education provided by RVOU is dependable and applicable to nearly all RVers, regardless of rig or travel style. I look forward to seeing this program grow in content and reach."
An added perk of RVOU is a discount through Bancorp South. Students who complete the operation/maintenance/safety learning path of RVOU receive a certificate of completion. This certificate may be presented to Bancorp South for a discount on RV insurance.

This is one of the stupidest things I've heard in a very, very long time. Yet, these are the kinds of things that so-called Xtians really think and believe.
Yes--you know what I mean. And this guy's a "Utah County Republican delegate." How far up the pecking order does thinking like this go in the Republican Party?
That is, how far does it go before it becomes something they secretly think but don't talk about because--you know--the Liberals run the media and make what real God-loving people believe look stupid.
According to The Salt Lake Tribune (via Codex: Biblical Studies):
"In order for Satan to establish his 'New World Order' and destroy the freedom of all people as predicted in the Scriptures, he must first destroy the U.S.," his resolution states. "The mostly quiet and unspectacular invasion of illegal immigrants does not focus the attention of the nations the way open warfare does, but is all the more insidious for its stealth and innocuousness."

Oh yeah, and for those of you who think that this is blogging at its laziest, I have this to say: Good call!

In a society and culture where we have instant access and ability to connect through the online world, why do so many people feel disengaged and disconnected?
How we interact with one another in our disengaged, overly-technology consumed society leaves a significant impact on our happiness threshold. People are craving human connection. They desire to do something good with their lives, and most importantly, they want to live a life of significance.
Yet, there's a huge gap between how people want to live and and how they are actually living. When we make the shift to move from a me to we society, individuals achieve a greater sense of self-actualization while contributing to the world around them. They become more engaged, feel more connected, and most of all see that their life matters and they belong to something much bigger than themselves.
In this talk, you'll discover:
Together, let's create a life of good!

"Bag of tracheas "
I have been doing business with Jeffers for years. I have wrote reviews sometimes, this refers to some tracheas I ordered last week. When I got the bag of tracheas, I noticed the color first, it just didn't look right, I figured they had changed the item. To my surprise, they didn't. The tracheas actually had little beetle bugs in them. First, I am totally disappointed that Jeffers would send something out like this. Although they try to make things right, this is my second episode with a product and I am getting a little skeptical about purchasing items.
"Loves these"
I purchased a bag of these and was not excited until I received my order. It was a bunch of them. I have 2 Min-pins and I was able to cut several of them in half and it was still a good treat for my girls. Very happy with this purchase
"chewmax trachea tubes"
My dogs love it. Not too big so not a meal. Easy for them to chew and digest
"My dogs love them"
When my dogs see me getting the bag out they can't wait to get one. I really like giving them natural treats like these.
"Dogs love them"
I buy a lot of different brands of Trachea Chews, and this is easily the favorite of my houseful of dogs...

Sell To CeX Issues
Re. Sell-to-CeX Order Number: 762217
Order Date: 14 Nov 2011 11:18
Dear Mr X X
Thank you for trading with CeX.
One or more mobile handset or media player that you have sent us in your order has had it's grade changed. Please log into your CeX account online to check your status.
They claim that my product has had its grade changed which is incorrect as they have blatantly given me the price for the standard edition (which it is not). The price for the hardened edition currently is the same at the time of my sale (£63 cash, £68 credit). I have since emailed them explaining the situation (for which I'm sure they are fully aware was not a mistake and have deliberately given me the wrong price!). Does anybody know any contact numbers for CeX that actually work? Any help would be appreciated

Poor Bryan "Lyin' Fissure" Fischer, always finding ways to display his complete lack of basic logic and understanding. In this case, the confusion comes in the form of a poorly thought our metaphor involving sports, particularly: Basketball (A sport invented by a Canadian no less......but don't tell Bryan).
In this tweet, Bryan erroneously compares the winning of a general election as being only the tip off, or start, of a game. In this metaphorical case, the Celtics and the Lakers. Problem is, the metaphor doesn't work, in fact, it falls flat on it's proverbial face. The problem? Well, if Bryan had any knowledge of sports metaphors, he would understand that the tip off/start of the election game would be the primaries, hell, we'd go further and say it would be the announcing of one's candidacy. The game itself would be the campaigning and the election results would be the final score. Got that Bryan? Point is, Obama DID win the election and he did so campaigning on his Health Care plan and other important issues. If the American people did not want Obamacare, they had their opportunity to decline but, knowing the position and policies of Mr. Obama, they voted him back into the White House. It would seem a clear cut victory and mandate, certainly not a tip off or start of a game...for republicans, more like bad foul after the buzzer.
Secondly, Fischer disparages McCain for 'surrendering'. What surrender? As we stated, the President made his case to the people during the election. Just because McCain defers does not mean surrender, one could argue that he understands that being obstructionist for the sake of being so, is actually bad for the U.S. Something to consider Bryan.
Original tweet:
Apple meet Orange.
end of line......
