Wed, Nov 16th 2016 1:32pm — Tim Cushing
Here's a pretty encouraging story about fighting asset forfeiture and winning. The convoluted laws surrounding marijuana use are being exploited by California cops as revenue streams. A raid of a legal cannabis collective resulted in a whole lot of forfeited assets.
[I]n Oceanside, CA, [attorney Michael] Cindrich's client Shaun Smith endured a home invasion, a SWAT-style raid where law enforcement took 3 ounces of cannabis concentrates, 55 pounds of cannabis and over $43,000 of his medical marijuana collective's cash on-hand.
Not content with the massive cannabis haul, officers then took everything else it could find.
They also took what they felt were his assets, including a Toyota truck, guns, ammunition, and a motorcycle, then rode to the bank and confiscated the $110,000 from his bank account.
It appeared to be open-and-shut, especially as forfeiture is purposely extremely difficult to challenge, no matter what state you're in. Weed dealer busted. Assets obtained. Nothing left to do but decide how to split up the proceeds.
Fortunately for Smith, his lawyer quickly unraveled the very questionable case against him. The jury reached a not guilty verdict on the manufacturing and distribution charges in less than ten minutes. One of the key pieces of evidence in the prosecution's case -- a small extraction tube often used for butane extraction of cannabis oil (still illegal in the state) -- worked against it.
The prosecution tried to claim the tube showed Smith was engaged in illegal extraction efforts. Smith's lawyer, however, obtained documents from the DEA showing the extraction tube had never been in use. The lab notes on the seized evidence stated that there were spiderwebs inside the tube -- something that suggested it had been stored for quite some time, rather than being part of an active extraction effort.
From there, Cindrich went on to challenge the forfeiture. Once its case fell apart, the state was unable to successfully challenge Smith's motion for return of property. However, that didn't mean it actually returned all of the seized property. It gave him back all of the seized marijuana, weapons, and other miscellaneous items, but refused to hand over the $150,000 in cash or the motorcycle it took.
But in its haste to turn all of Smith's assets into its own, local law enforcement screwed up. It failed to process the forfeiture of these items in a timely manner. All hail "technicalities."
Since state agents seized the property pursuant to a state search warrant, the state statute of limitations of one year began on the date of seizure, not the date feds turned it back over to state. Since the one year statute of limitations had lapsed, Cindrich argued that the property return was required.
The District Attorney's office said that the federal government seized the money initially, claiming the law enforcement authorizes involved in the raid were acting as federal agents.
The judge found in favor of Smith, noting that while the officers were cross-sworn as federal and state agents, the original seizure occurred under the state's authority, and the belated shift of the assets to the feds (as part of the DOJ's equitable sharing program -- a favorite loophole exploited by local law enforcement agencies to route around more restrictive state laws) didn't change the underlying facts. The attempt to reset the clock on the forfeiture failed and the DA's office is now in the process of returning the last of Smith's property to him.
A closed-loop collective that grows and distributes medical marijuana to members is fully legal in California. Obviously, law enforcement wishes this weren't the case. The same goes for the prosecutors who get fed questionable cases like this by overzealous drug warriors. A medical marijuana activist who attended some of the hearings in Smith's case points out that local prosecutors do everything they can to prevent juries from being made aware of this fact. Other cases covered by this advocacy group suggest this technique hasn't been working too well, what with juries returning not guilty verdicts in record time.
However, the loss of a prosecution does not automatically result in the return of seized assets. Convictions are not required in cases where the value of assets seized tops $40,000. And this stipulation doesn't go into effect until the beginning of next year -- which will also trigger a tightening of the equitable sharing loophole to prevent law enforcement from routing around the new conviction requirement. The sad fact is that, more often than not, citizens can walk away from bogus charges, but still have nothing to show for it in terms of returned assets.

Conflicting Information and Message Competition in Health and Risk Messaging

Clinicians, medical and public health researchers, and communication scholars alike have long been concerned about the effects of conflicting health messages in the broader public information environment. Not only have these messages been referred to in many ways (e.g., "competing," "contradictory," "inconsistent," "mixed," "divergent"), but they have been conceptualized in distinct ways as well—perhaps because they have been the subject of study across health, science, and political communication domains. Regardless of specific terminology and definitions, the concerns have been consistent throughout: conflicting health messages exist in the broader environment, they are noticed by the public, and they impact public understanding and health behavior. Yet until recently, the scientific evidence base to substantiate these concerns has been remarkably thin. In the past few years, there has been a growing body of rigorous empirical research documenting the prevalence of conflicting health messages in the media environment. There is also increasing evidence that people perceive conflict and controversy about several health topics, including nutrition and cancer screening. Although historically most studies have stopped short of systematically capturing exposure to conflicting health messages—which is the all-important first step in demonstrating effects—there have been some recent efforts here. Taken together, a set of qualitative (focus group) and quantitative (observational survey and experimental) studies, guided by diverse theoretical frameworks, now provides compelling evidence that there are adverse outcomes of exposure to conflicting health information. The origins of such information vary, but understanding epidemiology and the nature of scientific discovery—as well as how science and health news is produced and understood by the public—helps to shed light on how conflicting health messages arise. As evidence of the effects of conflicting messages accumulates, it is important to consider not just the implications of such messages for health and risk communication, but also whether and how we can intervene to address the effects of exposure to message conflict.

Q: A good way to capture standard error and standard output This works well except it merges the standard error stream into the standard out stream of the sourcing script.  Any suggestions on how to fix it?
#!/usr/bin/env bash

# Source this from a script to capture and `tee` standard error and standard
# out to a log file. Calling script must source this script.  For Example:
#
# . /usr/bin/logy /var/log/project/$0.log
#
# The logging uses >(process substitution). Process substitution is supported
# in shells like bash and zsh but is not supported in sh.

_LOG=${1?log file}
test $# -eq 1 || exit 1

mkdir -p "$(dirname "$_LOG")"

# Append stdout and stderr to log file
exec > >(
  echo -e "START\t$(date)" >> "$_LOG"
  tee -a "$_LOG"
  echo -e "END\t$(date)" >> "$_LOG"
) 2>&1

Here is an example:
. /usr/bin/logy $0.log
echo stdout
echo stderr >&2
exit 1

Run the script:
$ ./t
$ echo $?      # $? is the return value
1

Good, the return value 1 was preserved...
What was logged?
$ cat t.log
START    Thu, Feb 07, 2013  2:58:57 PM
stdout
stderr
END    Thu, Feb 07, 2013  2:58:57 PM

The idea is to make single log file and then use logrotate to maintain them.
Here is the issue.  The standard out and error streams were merged.  This outputs noting showing that the standard error stream went to standard out:
./t > /dev/null

This outputs both lines from the echo statements showing both went to standard out:
./t 2> /dev/null

Is there a good way to preserve the streams while preserving the order in the log file of the stdout/err statements?  For that reason, I don't think two exec statements are an option.

A: Good sir, this should work
script_name.sh |& tee -a /var/log/script_name.sh.log

To clarify part of the command
|& was added to Bash 4 as an abbreviation for 2>&1 |

The wise saying that you must vigilantly guard what is allowed into your heart is proven true in everyone's life. It is vital that you know what is it that has free passage through the gateway of your heart, and what are those things that must be denied.
Let's try to understand the importance of this by considering your heart to be a store-house, a treasury in which the most highly esteemed things are kept. We would like to think that we only store-up things such as, whatever is: true, honorable, just, pure, lovely, commendable, excellent, and anything worthy of praise. But our experience reveals that is not the case.
Instead, the entry gates to your treasury are often penetrated by invaders of corruption. The "sentries" charged with vigilantly guarding entry are either asleep or willing participants in the corruption. So that by their engagement to your desires the corruptible things become a deceitful treasure to you. This helps explain the truth of Jesus' words: for wherever your treasure is, there your heart will be also.
Unfortunately, these corruptible things are eventually put on display for all to see through your words and actions ‒ and they affect every relationship. The only solution is a "seek and destroy" mission to root out the corruption. David put it this way: Search me, O God, and know my heart; and see if there be any grievous way in me.
Make no mistake, this is an ongoing war for your heart, and you need help to wage the battle.


I simply wanted to say thanks once more. I'm not certain the things I would've done without those creative ideas shared by you relating to such a area. It was actually a very fearsome crisis for me personally, nevertheless understanding a new skilled way you dealt with it made me to weep for fulfillment. Now i'm grateful for this service and even have high hopes you recognize what a powerful job that you're doing educating many others using your site. I'm certain you haven't got to know all of us.


In conjunction with the City of Edmonton's This Old Edmonton House Seminars, we are pleased to present a Historic Interiors Tour.
This Old Edmonton House is a series of public seminars about owning, maintaining, and restoring a historic home. An expert in each field will lead each seminar. Come prepared with your problems and questions and leave with potential solutions and answers.
In this workshop, you will join Johanne Yakula and learn about how interiors of homes have evolved over time, and how these were related to Edmonton's context. Wall treatments, colours, major styles of decor, types of lighting, and accessories for homes generally built up to 1930 will be discussed. The workshop ends with a tour of Rutherford House on the University of Alberta campus to view firsthand how the former Premier's residence was laid out. The focus of this tour will be the layout, materials, lighting and furniture (now antique) that was prevalent at the time.
Find out more about the seminar series at the City of Edmonton's This Old Edmonton House, or register online at www.edmonton.ca/ereg (course code 644689). For additional information, please contact David Johnston at 780-496-5281 or david.johnston2@edmonton.ca.

Colombia's rapidly breeding 'cocaine hippos' must be stopped, scientists say
Scientists say Colombia must cull its so-called "cocaine hippos" that roam the Magdalena river basin as they are breeding voraciously and are an increasing menace. The marshlands of Colombia have been home to these giant mammals since they were illegally imported in the late 1980s by the notorious drug lord, Pablo Escobar. When he was shot dead in 1993, the Colombian government took control of his extravagant estate, including his personal zoo. Most of the animals were shipped away, but four hippos were left to fend for themselves in a pond, and now there are dozens of them living in the wild. Although nobody knows exactly how many there are, estimates put the total number between 80 and 100, making them the largest invasive species on the planet. Scientists forecast that the number of hippos will swell to almost 1,500 by 2040. They conclude, that at that point, environmental impacts will be irreversible and numbers impossible to control. "Nobody likes the idea of shooting a hippo, but we have to accept that no other strategy is going to work," ecologist Nataly Castelblanco-Martínez told The Telegraph.

Bears cornerback Charles Tillman has been recognized for his charity work with the Cornerstone Foundation by being named the winner of the 2013 NFL Walter Payton Man of the Year Award.
The prestigious award, which is named after the late Bears Hall of Fame running back, is the only league honor that recognizes a player's community service as well as his playing excellence.
An emotional Tillman received the award from NFL commissioner Roger Goodell Saturday night at the NFL Honors awards show at Radio City Music Hall in New York.
Wiping away tears, Tillman thanked his wife, his friends, previous winners, the commissioner, the Payton family, and the Cornerstone Foundation's Amy Grieme and board of directors.
The Man of the Year Award has been in existence since 1970 and honors NFL players who demonstrate outstanding balance in their lives between civic and professional responsibilities.
In 1999, the NFL named the award after Payton as a tribute to his greatness both on and off the field. The Bears legend died on Nov. 1, 1999 of liver disease at the age of 45.
The other two finalists for the award were Carolina Panthers linebacker Thomas Davis and Arizona Cardinals kicker Jay Feely. Tillman was also a finalist in 2011.
The selection panel consists of Goodell, former NFL commissioner Paul Tagliabue, Hall of Famers Frank Gifford and Anthony Munoz, 2012 winner Jason Witten of the Dallas Cowboys, Sports Illustrated writer Peter King and Connie Payton, Walter's widow.
By winning the award, Tillman will receive a $25,000 donation in addition to the $1,000 he was given for being named the Bears' nominee.
Tillman has shown a passion for football and giving to those in need since he arrived in Chicago in 2003 after being selected by the Bears in the second round of the draft out of Louisiana-Lafayette.
In 11 seasons, the two-time Pro Bowler has set Bears career records with nine defensive touchdowns, eight interception return TDs and 675 interception return yards. Since Tillman entered the league, he is the only NFL player with more than 30 interceptions and 30 forced fumbles.
Charles' Locker provides pediatric hospital patients with access to iPads, laptops, gaming systems and other kinds of entertainment to help pass the time during their hospital stays and annually reaches more than 370,000 children. The Tiana Fund has distributed more than $1 million to over 300 families who have been identified by local organizations as at-risk or in-need. The support is provided to families and individuals to strengthen their ability to care for themselves, enhance their stability and security, and improve their quality of life.
The foundation initially provided children with educational opportunities and resources to excel in the classroom. But after Tillman's three-month-old daughter, Tiana, was diagnosed with dilated cardiomyopathy and received a life-saving heart transplant in 2008, the mission was changed to improving the lives of critically and chronically ill children.
Tillman and his wife, Jackie, also contribute their time and resources to local, national and international organizations outside of the Cornerstone Foundation. The Tillmans have helped build a school in Cambodia, sponsored children through the Urban Promise program in Camden, New Jersey, and have purchased and donated over 700 tickets to Bears home games since 2008 through the Bears Home Team Hand-Off program.
Tillman is also an avid supporter of the military, and has participated in a USO tour to Iraq, volunteered with the USO of Illinois on Thanksgiving to serve meals to local troops, and provided soldiers with tickets to games at Soldier Field.

Visit and Learn History About My City in Al Mahsun Grand Mosque
isdarmady66
inHaveyoubeenhere
This time I will bring the readers to visit one of the historic buildings and has the beautiful architectural buildings and also become an icon of the city where I live that Al Mahsun Grand Mosque or we call Medan Grand Mosque. For friends who may not know what the mosque. A mosque is a place that serves Muslims.
Al Mahsun Grand Mosque there since the year 1909, 36 years before the existence of the state of Indonesia. When first established this Mosque is located in a complex with the Palace of the Sultanate of Deli. The construction of this mosque was initiated by the Sultan of Deli IX, Sultan ma'mun Al Rasyid Perkasa Alam in the year 1906 and completed in 1909. That time of the building of Masjid Raya Al Mahsun larger and more magnificent than the Palace of the Sultanate of Deli this is because according to the sultan Mosque it is on the splendor of the palace. There is also another reason for the process of the construction of a mosque by Sultan of Deli XI, due to the development of the religion of Islam which is very rapid in the land of deli, and the decision of the sultan who moved the capital from Labuhan Deli to Medan
This time, the Al Mahsun Grand Mosque is located on Jalan Sisingamangaraja no. 61. Everyone can visit this mosque to see it, which is important well-dressed, and polite. The moment before the pandemic covid-19 many foreign tourists who visit, because around Al Mahsun Grand Mosque many hotels and guest house.
Entry Gate Al Mahsun Grand Mosque
When we want to enter the building of the Grand Mosque Al Mahsun, we were greeted by the gates of square form with a flat roof. There are carved writes Arabic on the right of the entrance gate who wrote September 19, 1909, as a sign of the mosque was completed and used.
In the courtyard of the mosque, we could see the front of the mosque. The form of the most striking there is three black colored dome with the architecture of the dome of the turkey. The front of the mosque is a favorite place for visitors to come, you can get a spot a good photo when you're here.
Al Mahsun Grand Mosque
The distinctive feature of the Al Mahsun Mosque is the ornament that comes from the culture of other countries if we see there is a touch of China, the Middle East, and India in each ornament. Acculturation from a variety of cultures that exist in the field when it affects and creates the beauty of this mosque.
We get into the inside of the mosque. The window, the chandelier, the stained glass in this Mosque were brought in from Europe such as Germany, Italy, Spain, and France. The hallway in the mosque has a row of the arched windows like the buildings of the medieval Spanish.
The splendor of the building of this Mosque can not be denied because at that time the Sultanate of Deli profited from the tobacco plantations that were popular in that period and is well developed by the government of the colonial Dutch east indies. The architecture of this mosque is also a dutchman named T.V Van Verp.
Tomb of The Sultan
I also invite the reader to see the backside of the Mosque, on the back there, Tombs of the descendants of the nobility of the sultanate of deli and the offspring.
The tomb of the sultan of the Sultanate of deli in the complex is also but a different place. This is the grave of Sultan ma'mun Al Rasyid Perkasa Alam who founded the mosque in his reign.
Until now, Al Mahsun Mosque also still be the icon of tourism history and religion in the City of Medan and still maintained its original form and is a cultural heritage of the city of Medan.

We're right on the third quarter of the year and I just realized I have yet to meet half of my savings goal. Whatever happened to me? Where did my money go? Asking myself these questions has pointed me to some big purchases and financial transactions I made in the past months. Eventually it became clear to me. Aside from the new Longchamp bag, I spent most of my money paying for the tuition fees of my siblings, our home improvement projects, birthday celebrations of family members, and preparations for our upcoming trip abroad.
If there's one thing I didn't spend so much on, it would be healthcare. I'm thankful that my family, especially my parents, have not acquired any serious illnesses in the past months. I hope they continue to be in good health in the years to come. We all know how healthcare can cost a lot of money and in the case of serious health problems, can deplete the family's savings and would even make you wish you had SSDI to depend on. I don't think I'm financially prepared for that yet.


Can you photoshop IIWII in Times New Roman on my forarm just below the bend in the elbow and make it look like its a tattoo? (and also make my arm just a tiny bit tanner cause im like tanslucent.) Not very big though like 1 inch by 3 inches.
p.s. i couldn't get it to look good in times new roman.
Nice job. Is there any way that someone would do it in the parallel orientation and in thicker Times New Roman font?
Like this (but more realistic)?
Is this too big or is it good?
There's nothing on your message... only quoted text from mine.
is there a way to make it look like a tattoo more?
Added some blur/noise, and made it a bit more transparent so you can still see some of the detail on the arm. I don't know much about tattoos, but I assume that's what it would look like.
Tried a few with minor changes.
Would you mind turning the orientation so it is parallel right below the creese in my elbow. with the IIWII facing toward my palm. I wanna compare the 2. THANKS AGAIN!

McCurtain's Zane Cooper – Athlete Spotlight – Presented By Compassion Home Care
Mark Twain once said…it's not the size of the dog in the fight but it's the size of the fight in the dog…when interpreted means it's not necessarily a matter of physical size but rather a mental attitude that matters most.
If you're looking for an example to validate Twain's comment, look no further than McCurtain's Zane Cooper as the 5-foot-9 sophomore proves by example that he's got what it takes to be a game changer on the basketball court, baseball diamond and in life.
"I enjoy playing basketball and baseball and pushing myself to be the best I can be," said Cooper, who wears jersey number-23 noting the influence of Michael Jordan. "I try my hardest to play my role and hustle every second that I am on the court. I know if I'm giving all I've got my team will do the same."
Cooper's efforts draw applause from his coach.
"This kid has a chance to be really good in sports and his success will carry over in life," replied Jason Ward. "The same effort fans see him give in basketball games, he does the same thing everyday in practice. He never downgrades another player but tries to build them up. Then when I walk the halls or go watch plays performed by the school there he is doing his best."
Described as disciplined, determined and ambitious, Cooper understands success is earned not given.
"I will always give everything I've got and try to do what's best for the team," explained Cooper whose favorite basketball players are NBA stars Allen Iverson and Ja Morant. "It gains the team's trust and they know I will try my hardest."
While Cooper's athletic abilities are top notch, coach Ward confirms that Cooper lets his actions do all his talking.
"He does all this in a silent fashion. Zane is a very soft talker and his demeanor seems very calculated, waiting for his chance to pounce. His future is bright, that's for sure."
And, while crunching on a bowl of Fruit Loops as his favorite pre-game meal, Cooper explained it's all about proving that Character Counts.
"In sports and in everyday life, I believe character is what you do when faced with failure. If you fail in sports or life and give up you will never succeed," Cooper said with a nod of affirmation. "You have to have the character to keep pushing and NEVER give up."

"In this valuable volume, Barbara Allen furnishes all those interested in the Russian revolution with an important collection of political leaflets reflecting the epoch-defining struggle for power in 1917 Russia. Allen's fine translations and insightful introductions add to the value of the collection."
"The leaflets, nicely translated, take the reader into the fervent debates between Bolsheviks and Mensheviks during the 1917 revolution. Allen pays particular attention to Alexander Shlyapnikov, a level-headed Bolshevik metal worker who was involved in party and union organizing. She also provides clear, comprehensive introductions to the materials. The result is a collection that goes beyond the party luminaries and into the ranks of lower ranking activists. Most of these materials heretofore have been available only in Russian."
Barbara C. Allen, Ph.D.(2001), Indiana University Bloomington, is Associate Professor of History at La Salle University in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. She is the author of Alexander Shlyapnikov, 1885-1937: Life of an Old Bolshevik (Brill 2015 and Haymarket Books 2016).


Master P and the No Limit Boys in the studio cooking up some more gumbo the new hit single "FENESSEN" is taking the streets and clubs by storm. The No Limit Boys team up on another street classic.

A project that kept me busy for the last 6 months has been successfully delivered: The "Digital Transformation Report 2015" is now available for download. It has been an exciting journey with an interesting outcome.
From November 2014 to February 2015 we conducted an online-survey and asked employees to rate the digital capabilities of their companies. We developed a scale to benachmark the "digital maturity" of companies, allowing them to compare their capabilities and activities with others. We collected data from 196 participants of 162 companies. 83% work in Switzerland. The results show how "digitally mature" companies in Switzerland are, how different industries compare and what possible action areas are.
What is the value of digital innovation? How can you measure this value?
When should you go for a more disruptive or a more conservative strategy?
How can you identify new digital technologies that are most relevant to your business?
How can you decide when to abandon an innovation?
These will be the guiding questions for my further research work and my thesis.


The SGVHAK rover team continued to work through problems and worked our way towards a first usable iteration of the rover. Wires are tidied up so there's no risk of tangling up as the rover moves. All fasteners are tightened. The Raspberry Pi now runs as its own WiFi network access point and no longer dependent on an external wireless router. While there are many more items on the to-do list, these were the critical pieces to complete for public demonstration at SCaLE 16x.
Once it's all buttoned up and powered up, we had what amounted to a very fancy and expensive remote-control vehicle. Unlike common toy remote control cars, this one can demonstrate the rocker-bogie suspension system used by Mars rovers. At this scale it is quite capable of climbing over people's feet, sidewalk curbs, and decorative garden rocks.
The controls were passed around to people who came to our SGVHAK meet just before SCaLE. This is a test to see how the rover handles drivers who weren't involved in the build process. If this goes well, we can feel pretty confident about handing the controls over to anyone who wanted a turn.
The test, sadly, did not go well. We had been suspicious that the steering motors might not be strong enough to take little rover fender-benders, despite their advertised torque rating on paper. This confirmation was sadly confirmed in the form of a broken gearbox that ended the test drive session.
Test, find problems, fix them, repeat. This is not in itself a problem. But SCaLE is only a week away and stronger replacement gearbox+motor won't arrive until afterwards. If we want to demonstrate the rover at SCaLE, we'll need to get creative.

Tour of California: Huffman takes second win in Pasadena

US Continental rider hopes this week's performance can boost him back to the WorldTour

Two wins from seven stages for Evan Huffman (Rally Cycling)
Stage win number 2 for Evan Huffman (Rally Cycling)
In theory, Evan Huffman and his Rally Cycling team weren't even supposed to be in the Amgen Tour of California for it's inaugural WorldTour edition because of UCI rules that say only WorldTour and Pro Continental teams are eligible.
Rally and Jelly Belly expected to be named to Tour of California teams list

Tour of California: Time trial still in Huffman's sights after two long days in the break
George Bennett wins Tour of California
But an exception granted for the first-year WorldTour event allowed the race to invite US Continental teams Rally Cycling and Jelly Belly-Maxxis, and Huffman parlayed the opportunity into two stage wins and the jersey for the most courageous rider.
Huffman scored his first stage win on day 4 in Santa Clarita after he and teammate Rob Britton infiltrated the day's breakaway and the finished first and second. The 27-year-old from El Dorado Hills, California, scored his second win of the week on Saturday during the final stage finish in downtown Pasadena.
"I feel exhausted," Huffman said in the post-race press conference. "I felt actually pretty bad at the start today, but it was our plan to go in the breakaway again and try and upset the field sprint. I feel really, really good, and I'm kind of in disbelief that I was able to do it two times."
Huffman was joined in the Saturday's breakaway once again by Britton – who won the most courageous jersey for his long solo breakaway during the Queen stage on Thursday – Team Sky's David Lopez, Cofidis' Nicolas Edet and Dimension Data's Lachlan Morton.
The powerful quintet was able to hold off the bunch once again to spoil the day for the sprinters and their teams, allowing Morton to regain the Best Young Rider jersey that he lost the day before after suffering a mechanical right out of the start house.
"I decided to let it all hang out today," Morton said. "We were lucky we had four really committed guys. One was a passenger in the Sky guy, but Evan rolled him anyway, so tough luck."
Indeed, Huffman had hoped to put Lopez on the front in the finale, but when the Sky rider dove for the right side of the road, Huffman powered up the other side and the drag race was on.
"Like Lachlan said, Lopez was sitting on; he didn't take a pull all day," Huffman said. "So I knew that he was going to go for it. At 2km out I kind of swung out and decided I was going to sit on his wheel. I knew my teammate Rob would keep it from completely stalling out and keep us going to the line.
"I kind of got stuck on the front anyways with Lopez," Huffman said. "He was on the right side and I was on the left. We started sprinting really early. It was kind of like a slow-motion sprint and I barely was able to outmuscle him at the end. It's unbelievable to win two stages, especially like that. It's crazy."
Not so crazy was the idea that US Continental teams would be able to hold their own in the WorldTour race. Huffman's victories proved that the race's time was well spent in its efforts to gain an exception from the UCI allowing the Continental teams in.
"It was something that was important to us right at the beginning before we were even elevated to WorldTour status," said Kristin Bachochin Klein, race president and executive vice president of AEG Sports.
"We were in constant communication with the UCI and USA Cycling. It was very important to us to continue to provide a platform for these Continental teams in the United States. I'm happy that we were successful and I'm happy also that the UCI also believed that these Continental teams bring a lot to his race. It was quite evident this week just by the overall competition and the results. The results speak for themselves."
Morton, who rode at the Continental level with Jelly Belly-Maxxis for two years after leaving the Garmin WorldTour program, certainly noticed and appreciated the Continental riders in Saturday's breakaway.
"It was great because there were only two domestic teams in this race and one of them won two stages," Morton said. "I think they proved they deserved a spot in this race. They were always animating."
The opportunity to race a WorldTour event in his home state was especially important to Huffman, who spent two years on Astana before coming back to the States to race on the domestic circuit.
"I think that's part of why I was able to achieve such success, being at home is more relaxed, the whole lead up to the race," Huffman said. "You're just at home training and you don't have to worry about travel. It's really cool to win here with so many friends and family here at the race and at home watching as well."
Huffman is also hoping the WorldTour team managers were watching and are currently considering what kind of offer to make him at the end of the season.
"I would imagine I'll have an offer, but obviously not yet and I haven't made any decisions yet," Huffman said. "I'll wait to see what the options are and take the best fit for me. So maybe, maybe not.
"There's been a lot of talk about the team upgrading to Pro Continental next year, and that is definitely an option I would consider."
For now, however, Huffman will make the short trip home to relax and consider his accomplishments this week, winning two stages in a race he wasn't even supposed to be in.


You may choose to disregard all or part of a capital gain under the small business retirement exemption if you satisfy certain conditions. If you're an individual who chooses the retirement exemption, you don't need to terminate any activity or cease business. This concession allows you to provide for your retirement. If you're a CGT concession stakeholder and receive payments under the retirement exemption, you're not required to terminate your employment.
if you're under 55 years old just before you choose to use the retirement exemption, you make a personal contribution equal to the exempt amount to a complying super fund or retirement savings account (RSA).
If you choose the retirement exemption after you've received the capital proceeds (for example, when you lodge your income tax return), you're not required to make the contribution until you make the choice. Accordingly, you may use the capital proceeds for other purposes before making the choice. However, once you make the choice, you must immediately make a contribution of an amount equal to the exempt amount if you were less than 55 years old just before you made the choice.
To satisfy this requirement, you must pay the amount into a complying super fund or RSA by the relevant date. This is an important requirement. Failure to immediately contribute the amount will mean the conditions are not satisfied, and the retirement exemption will not be available.
If you're 55 years old or older when you make the choice to access the retirement exemption, there is no requirement to pay any amount to a complying super fund or RSA, even though you may have been under 55 years old when you received the capital proceeds.
If the gain arises as a result of CGT events J5 or J6 (about the replacement asset conditions not being met for the small business rollover concession) you can choose the retirement exemption for those gains without having to satisfy the basic conditions again. This is because you would have already satisfied the basic conditions at the time you chose the rollover.
If you receive the capital proceeds in instalments, the above requirements about making a contribution apply to each instalment (up to the asset's CGT exempt amount). If your capital proceeds from the disposal of a CGT asset are increased by one or more financial benefits that you receive under a look-through earnout right relating to that CGT disposal, you are treated as receiving those capital proceeds in instalments.
You'll be eligible for the retirement exemption to the same extent that the deceased would have been just prior to their death, except that there is no requirement for the deceased to contribute an amount to a complying super fund or RSA.
We can extend the two-year period in certain circumstances.
where you receive the capital proceeds in instalments, you make a payment to a CGT concession stakeholder for each instalment in succession (up to the asset's CGT exempt amount). If your capital proceeds from the disposal of a CGT asset are increased by one or more financial benefits that you receive under a look-through earnout right relating to that CGT disposal, you are treated as receiving those capital proceeds in instalments.
If a CGT concession stakeholder is under 55 years old just before a payment is made in relation to them, the company or trust must make the payment to the CGT concession stakeholder by contributing it to a complying super fund or RSA on their behalf. The company or trust must notify the trustee of the fund or the RSA at the time of the contribution that the contribution is being made in accordance with the requirements of the retirement exemption.
Therefore, if you choose the retirement exemption after you have received the capital proceeds (for example, when you lodge your tax return), there is no requirement to make any payment until you have made the choice. Accordingly, you may use the capital proceeds for other purposes before choosing. However, once you choose, you must make the payment by the end of seven days after making the choice.
This is an important requirement. Failure to make a payment by the end of seven days after making the choice to a CGT concession stakeholder (if they are 55 years old or older) or into a complying super fund or RSA (if the stakeholder is under 55 years old) will mean the conditions are not satisfied and the retirement exemption will not be available.
If the gain arises as a result of CGT events J5 or J6 (when the replacement asset conditions have not been met for the small business rollover concession) you can choose the retirement exemption for those gains without having to satisfy the basic conditions again. This is because you would have already satisfied the basic conditions at the time you chose the rollover.
Lana could choose the small business retirement exemption but, as she is younger than 55 years old, she would need to pay the amount into a complying super fund or RSA.
Where payments are made by a company or trust to a CGT concession stakeholder, the stakeholder is not required to cease any activity or office holding.
If a company or trust receives the capital proceeds from a CGT event in instalments and chooses the retirement exemption, it must make a payment to at least one of its CGT concession stakeholders on receipt of each instalment, up to the CGT exempt amount. The payment must be made by the later of seven days after the choice is made or seven days after an instalment of the capital proceeds is received.
In December 2006, Harry retired from farming and transferred the farm, which he acquired in 1996, to his son for no consideration. The market value of the farm was $1 million, so the market value substitution rule applies to deem the capital proceeds to equal the market value of the farm. As the cost base of the farm was $600,000, Harry made a capital gain of $400,000.
Harry reduced his capital gain by the 50% CGT discount to $200,000 and then further, by the 50% active asset reduction, to $100,000. Even though he has not received any capital proceeds, Harry may choose the retirement exemption for the full amount of the remaining $100,000 capital gain (assuming the other retirement exemption conditions are satisfied).
To access the exemption on a gain made by a company or trust for which there are no actual proceeds, the company or trust must make a payment of the disregarded capital gain to at least one of its CGT concession stakeholders.
If you're a CGT concession stakeholder, a payment you receive from a company or trust to satisfy the retirement exemption requirements is not assessable income and is not exempt income.
If you're a company or trust making the payment, it is not able to be deducted from your assessable income.
Amounts that are not assessable income and not exempt income have no implications for tax losses of previous years.
This is the case despite section 109 of the ITAA 1936, which can treat excessive payments to shareholders, directors and associates as dividends. Therefore, section 109 has no application to these payments.
From 1 July 2007, if you're contributing a retirement exemption amount to a super fund or RSA, the amount is generally a non-concessional contribution. To exclude the amount from your non-concessional contributions cap and have it count towards your CGT cap amount instead ($1,415,000 for 2016–17), you must notify the fund using the Capital gains tax cap election. You must complete this form by no later than the time you make the contribution.
Capital gains from the sale of active assets are exempt up to a lifetime limit of $500,000. If you're under 55, the exempt amount must be paid into a complying super fund or a retirement savings account.

Empowering ambition
Alex Madsen
Senior Cell Design Manager, Malmesbury, UK
Meet the engineer energised by Dyson's pioneering research.
I started at Dyson in 2013. Having completed my PhD researching Li-ion cathode materials, I initially joined as a Cell Engineer. Over the years, Dyson allowed me to really stretch myself and take on more responsibilities – to the point where I felt comfortable progressing to my current role as Senior Cell Design Manager.
It's my job to translate cutting-edge battery research into bespoke new commercial designs for Dyson applications. I collaborate with teams of Dyson scientists and engineers, as well as other tech start-ups and suppliers, all around the world.
When I'd finished my undergraduate chemistry degree, I wasn't 100% sure what I wanted to do, but energy storage seemed like an interesting area to get into. Following my PhD, I knew Dyson was committed to branching into battery technology, I thought that was incredibly ambitious and wanted to be a part of it.
When I first joined as one of only a handful of people in Dyson's new Energy Storage Research team, I remember we didn't have any research labs at all. Today, we have multiple labs representing a world-class facility and a team growing to over 100 – with a broad range of backgrounds, nationalities and experience levels.
At Dyson, there's no such thing as an average day. Some days, I'll work closely with scientists and engineers to steer our research towards commercial cell technologies which can be scaled to manufacture. Other days, I might be talking with industry experts, or engaging with patent attorneys, procurement and tech-scouting teams.
My time at Dyson has really focussed my approach to problem solving, it can be incredibly fast paced, and you have to be adaptable to change.
When that small initial team produced the first full-sized Dyson benchmark cells, it was an amazing achievement. The experience taught me a lot about the challenges of taking a cell from a theoretical concept to a functioning device.
The team I work with is great, we push each other, and the working environment is collaborative, open and supportive. As a company, we still have those ambitious goals that attracted me here. It's great to be part of the effort establishing our own technologies in this field.

With the approach of Black Friday, I have a long wish list waiting for these gift cards!
While other gifts were a bit more… practical?
A great time was had by all, which means I must cut this post short to get to the kitchen… I've got quite the mess to clean up!
Take a look at my living room and the minor changes I made using accessories and a rug from another room, I'd love to hear what you think.
And is that chocolate cake I spy at the back of the table ?? Yummy !
Actually, it's homemade spiced pear cake. My first time baking it – it was delicious!
