Oil Production Tax in Alaska: An Evolution Away from a "True"
Production Tax
Authors: Andrew C. MacMillan
Abstract: Alaska has long relied on taxing petroleum extraction as a key source of funding for the State. The oil production tax has changed dramatically since the first barrels of oil were taken from Alaskan land. Most noticeably, the production tax has adjusted its progressivity element and has moved from a gross tax to a net tax. This Note provides a historical reference to Alaska's oil production taxation scheme in an effort to address whether it is a "true" production tax. Asserting that Alaska has departed from a "true" production tax scheme insofar as it more resembles an income tax, this Note assesses whether the State should return to a "true" production tax.
Intrastate Crowdfunding in Alaska: Is There Security in Following the
Crowd'
Authors: Evan Glustrom
Abstract: This Note analyzes the potential of crowdfunding for the State of Alaska. Crowdfunding can open up new sources of revenue for small businesses while simultaneously providing an avenue for Alaskans to invest in their own communities. The potential, however, must be weighed against the risk of fraud, poorly run businesses, and the lack of protection for investors. It is the responsibility of the Alaska legislature, the State's securities administrators, and the Securities and Exchange Commission to ensure that investors are adequately protected. This Note discusses Alaska's crowdfunding legislation, the Alaska Intrastate Crowdfunding Exemption, and recommends changes to the legislation that account for the risks involved in crowdfunding while still capturing its potential.
Justice Reinvestment in Alaska: The Past, Present, and Future of SB 91
Authors: Michael A. Rosengart
Abstract: In the summer of 2016, Alaska Governor Bill Walker signed SB 91, a landmark criminal justice reform law that implements a "justice reinvestment" program. SB 91 aims to reduce Alaska's prison population, cut corrections costs, and then reinvest savings back into the state to improve public safety and reduce recidivism. It is 193 sections long and is likely the most substantial change to Alaskan criminal law since statehood. It also comes at a time when similar legislation, spearheaded by the Justice Reinvestment Initiative, is proliferating through the country. This Note overviews Alaska's corrections problems that prompted SB 91, discusses the law's legislative history, highlights some of the most important changes the law makes, and introduces some of the issues that it may present going forward.
The Grand Compromise: The ANCSA Section 7(i) Settlement Agreement
Authors: Ethan G. Schutt et al.
Abstract: In 1982, Alaska's twelve regional Native corporations finalized and executed a settlement agreement ending a decade of litigation involving Section 7(i) of the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act. The 121-page Settlement Agreement is complex and covers a number of issues. The Agreement annually governs the distribution of tens of millions in revenue shared between the regional corporations pursuant to Section 7(i). This Article reviews the history of the Settlement Agreement, with emphasis on the negotiations that led to it, as well as the legal challenges regarding the Agreement since its execution. This Article also reviews the Agreement, section-by-section, and provides insight from court cases, arbitration decisions, and other analysis of sections in the Agreement. Finally, this Article recommends that the twelve regions consider amending the Agreement to modernize it and address issues that have arisen since 1982 that were not anticipated by the drafters of the Agreement. This Article is a follow-on to ANCSA Section 7(I): $40 Million Per Word and Counting, which reviewed the history of Section 7(i).
Placing Children with Relatives: The Case for a Clear Rationale for
Separate Foster Care Licensing Standards, Background Check Procedures, and
Improved Relative Placement Statutes in Alaska
Authors: Courtney Lewis
Abstract: Policymakers generally agree that if a child cannot live safely with her parents, then the child should be placed expeditiously with a relative. Alaska's current system for evaluating relative caregivers is overly complicated, creating unnecessary barriers for relatives and increasing the risk of mistakenly denying placement with relatives. This Article argues that Alaska should adopt a three-step approach to achieve better outcomes based on the American Bar Association's model licensing standards, which are narrowly tailored to evaluate whether a child should be placed with a relative. Additionally, this Article argues that Alaska should repeal its state statute that gives the child welfare agency the ability to establish prima facie evidence to deny a relative if a relative would not be eligible for a foster care license, for two reasons. First, a review of the history of the state's statutes indicates that the legislature did not intend to provide the Department of Health and Human Services with the current definition of prima facie evidence. Second, Alaska's current statute is not compliant with the 2016 federal regulations regarding the Indian Child Welfare Act. Lastly, this Article argues that Alaska should adopt a statute clearly delineating the court's authority to order placement of a child facing foster care with a relative to expedite compliance with relative placement in frontline child welfare practice. Adopting these proposals would reduce barriers and the number of mistakes in frontline child welfare practice, which would increase both the timeliness and the number of children placed with relatives.
Alaska's Judicial Retention Elections: A Comparative Analysis
Authors: Albert J. Klumpp
Abstract: The results of recent judicial retention elections in Alaska, and the recent increase in political activities related to judicial selection in Alaska and many other states, have given rise to concerns about the fates of future Alaska retention candidates. This Article analyzes the results of retention elections nationwide and suggests that there may be good reason for Alaska judges to be worried. Baseline levels of voter support for retention candidates in most of Alaska are among the lowest in the country, and have gradually been declining over time. In addition, Alaskan voters have targeted individual judges for removal more frequently than voters in most other states. This Article's analysis indicates that ensuring the retention of competent Alaska judges in the future requires more than simply improving the effectiveness of pro-retention campaigns for individual candidates, and that understanding and addressing deeply held voter attitudes must be part of a more comprehensive effort.

The Future of Challenges to the Alaskan Public School Funding Scheme After
State v. Ketchikan
Authors: Kate Wheelock
Abstract: In 2013, the Ketchikan Gateway Borough initiated a challenge to the Alaska public education funding scheme by paying its required local contribution (RLC) to its school district under protest. The Borough subsequently filed a lawsuit against the State of Alaska in 2014. This Note discusses the supreme court's constitutional analysis of the RLC in State v. Ketchikan. Despite extensive discussion of the RLC in the context of the Alaska Constitution's Dedicated Funds Clause, the court failed to sufficiently analyze the RLC (a critical component of public school funding) in the context of the state's responsibility for education—a duty rooted in the Public Schools Clause. This Note will argue that, unlike the challenge to the RLC under the Dedicated Funds Clause, a successful challenge to the RLC under the Public Schools Clause is a possibility. To prevent a hasty legislative response, the State should consider alternative funding schemes less reliant on RLCs before a court order demands it do so, particularly given the disparities in local contributions that are not necessarily proportional to borough revenues as well as the increased criticism of the RLC after State v. Ketchikan.
Children and Alaska's Permanent Fund Dividend: Reasons for
Rethinking Parental Duty
Authors: Eli Kozminsky
Abstract: Alaska's Permanent Fund Dividend (Dividend) is an annual payment to eligible residents derived from state investment earnings on mineral royalties. Since 1982, the Dividend has averaged a payout of approximately $1,000 annually. The Permanent Fund Dividend program allows a parent, guardian, or other authorized representative to claim a Dividend on behalf of a child. Yet Alaska law currently imposes no requirements whatsoever on how parents use a child's Dividend. This Note questions Alaska's lack of parental duty when it comes to managing children's Dividends. Part I sketches the Permanent Fund Dividend's history and motivations, the mechanics of the program itself, and the case law that has developed regarding parental duty under the program. Part II then proposes that the way in which a child's Dividend is characterized influences what sort of parental duty (if any) attaches. In Part III, a reinterpretation of the Dividend as income rightly belonging to the child is offered as a compelling alternative to current doctrine. This Note concludes that the lax treatment of a child's Dividend under current Alaska law is suspect, and argues that an income conception that imputes a higher degree of parental duty better advances the program's aims.
The Economic Loss Doctrine in Alaska and the Design Professional Exception
Authors: Ashley K. Sundquist
Abstract: The economic loss doctrine has prevented countless plaintiffs from recovering their economic losses in tort. However, over the last several decades, numerous courts have found exceptions to this doctrine. Alaska currently provides two important exceptions: the independent duty exception and the design professional exception. These two exceptions as applied provide for inconsistent results which create liability for design professionals and cut off liability for non-design professionals. Providing the same approach and analysis for all professionals creates greater consistency and predictability and provides an opportunity for design professionals to limit their exposure to negligence claims.
Truth and Reconciliation Commissions: A Needed Force in Alaska'
Authors: Heather Parker
Abstract: Truth and Reconciliation Commissions are official, temporary bodies used for communities to come to terms with past violence, promote education and awareness of historic trauma, and to provide recognition and closure for victims and successors. By bringing past issues to light, such commissions promote healing and allow these communities to move forward. Although the Commission on Truth and Reconciliation in South Africa after the Apartheid-era is best known, several similar commissions have been established throughout the globe and within the United States. This paper compares commissions from South Africa, El Salvador, South Korea, and Canada with those that have been established in the United States to examine whether such a commission would be useful in Alaska to address current social problems in the state.
The Anchorage, Alaska Municipal Pretrial Diversion Program: An Initial
Authors: Cory R. Lepage et al.
Abstract: Pretrial diversion programs have the potential to prevent future criminal behavior through intervention and community based services. This may be particularly true for specific populations of offenders such as those with mental illness, substance abuse disorder, and those with co-occuring disorders. Pretrial diversion programs take low-level offenders out of the jail population, both reducing system overpopulation and costs of incarceration. The programs also provide speedy case processing for minor crimes resulting in savings to the court system and personnel. Pretrial diversion can help an offender avoid a criminal conviction and potentially avoid future criminal violations. Results indicate that most Anchorage pretrial defendants comply with and complete the pretrial conditions in a very short time period, an additional savings in case processing time. This research details the initial assessment of the Anchorage Municipal Prosecutor Pretrial Diversion program. This assessment examines system savings in time and money, as well as policy implications for the justice system that may assist other jurisdictions as they consider implementing a pretrial diversion program.

A Business Entity By Any Other Name: Corporation, Community and Kinship
Authors: Christian G. Vazquez
Abstract: Forty-five years ago, the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act resolved outstanding land claims between the federal and state government and Alaska Natives. The fund created by the settlement was used as seed money to establish the Alaska Native Corporations. The Native corporations have particular features which make them distinct from other business entities, these differences have been lauded by some shareholders but have simultaneously drawn ire from others. In 2015 the Alaska legislature introduced H.B. 49, a benefit corporation bill that would allow entrepreneurs to pursue both profits and social ends. This note traces the rise of the modern Alaska Native Corporation. It then weighs the merits of each business entity and assesses which is best aligned to improve the lives of Alaska Natives.
The Benefits of a Benefit Corporation Statute for Alaska Native
Authors: William Robinson
Abstract: In the forty-five years since the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act (ANCSA) created the Alaska Native regional corporation and village corporations, shareholders and outside observers have criticized the statute's use of the traditional corporate form as inappropriate for Alaska Native communities. The emergence of the benefit corporation entity across the United States may soon mean that Native corporations have a promising alternative. If Alaska joins the majority of states that have adopted this new legal entity, Native corporations would have an opportunity to significantly reform their corporate governance within the existing framework of ANCSA. This Note will argue that Alaska should enact a benefit corporation statute because it would give Native corporations a legal entity that better fits their purpose. As benefit corporations, Native corporations would commit to pursuing public benefits, and their directors would be required to consider factors beyond shareholder value in making decisions.
Protection of Alaska Native Customary and Traditional Hunting and Fishing
Rights Through Title VIII of ANILCA
Authors: John Sky Starkey
Abstract: This paper analyzes the degree to which the administration of Title VIII of the Alaska National Interest Lands Conservation Act (ANILCA) of 1980 protects customary and traditional hunting and fishing by Alaska Natives and their tribal communities. A recent Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) entered into by the United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) and the Kuskokwim Inter-Tribal Fish Commission (KRITFC) for co-management of subsistence fisheries will be used as a means to analyze the issue. This paper concludes with suggestions for improving the administration of Title VIII to better secure Alaska Native and Tribal rights for self-determination.

Opening for Mary Proenza Exhibition at Marymount's Barry Gallery on March 2
Posted on February 19, 2018 by Nicholas Munson
Marymount University invites the public to an opening reception for the exhibition "Personal Worlds," which features oil paintings, drawings and prints by faculty member Mary Proenza. The opening is from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Barry Gallery on Friday, March 2. The exhibition will run through April 2.
"My work explores social, political, environmental, and personal themes, and starts from a sense that the world is inexhaustibly interesting," Proenza noted in her artist statement. "I combine perception and other visual sources with memory, imagination, and narrative, and I work back and forth between drawing, painting, printmaking, and writing."
Several of the works are part of a graphic memoir in progress, a chapter of which has been published in "Rosebud" magazine.
A California native, Proenza earned a Bachelor of Arts in literature at UC Santa Barbara's College of Creative Studies, a Master of Fine Arts in painting at New York Studio School and her Master of Fine Arts in creative writing at The New School.
Her written art reviews have been published in "Art in America" and "The Brooklyn Rail," and her visual art appears on the covers of books from John Daniel & Co. and CDs from CMH and Arhoolie.
She joined the Marymount faculty in August 2017 as an assistant professor of fine arts.
The Barry Gallery, located in the Reinsch Library at Marymount, 2807 North Glebe Road, is open from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Thursday, and 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday. Admission is free. Access for individuals with disabilities is available.
For more information on the gallery, go to marymount.edu/barrygallery.

Guilty as charged. Yes, I spend too much time on social media. Yes, I have become more easily distracted. Yes, I have given up too much personal information to various apps and websites over the years. And yes, I have read a number of articles that articulate precisely how foolish, or at least, misguided this behaviour is.
And so when I opened up Sebastian Smee's Quarterly Essay, Net Loss: The Inner Life in the Digital Age, I was primed to feed my own anxiety as I read his confessions: first, about how much time he spends on his phone, checking messages, listening to podcasts, watching videos, keeping an eye on Twitter and the news; and second, how conscious he is that he has given over various degrees of information about himself to the various interfaces and apps that relentlessly market this information on to other agencies in order to market other products back to the reduced versions of our selves we willingly project online.
If these were Smee's confessions, I could easily make them my own too. Indeed, this is one of the ironies of contemporary digital life: the more Facebook, for example, extends its global reach, the more people can become instantly aware of discussions on Facebook about Facebook's use and sale of the data it accumulates through our global conversations about why and how we use it, and its affects on our sense of self.
Once nurtured in secret, protected by norms of discretion or a presumption of mystery, this 'inner' self today feels harshly illuminated and remorselessly externalised, and at the same time flattened, constricted and quantified.
He claims, sometimes directly, sometimes more cautiously, that human nature is changing: "Today, being human means being distracted. It is our new default setting".
This kind of claim is not new, of course. Anxiety about the contemporary age and its difference from the past dates back at least to medieval culture. More recently (but over a century ago), Virginia Woolf famously suggested that human nature changed "on or about December 1910". Indeed, Smee's machinic metaphor — "our new default setting" — demonstrates the extent to which industrialisation naturalised the idea of humanity as something that can be programmed. This metaphor would have been impossible, say, in the renaissance.
There was an exceeding good concert, but too much talking to hear it well. Indeed I am quite astonished to find how little music is attended to in silence; for, though every body seems to admire, hardly any body listens.
Smee is not particularly interested in history, though. He offers many instances of what he sees as the problem: the way social media and our digital selves offer us only diminished, impoverished versions of ourselves that threaten to displace our inner lives. These lives are "tangled knots of narrative, with feelings and hurts and elaborate, fantastical dreams, which can be as enduring as mountains or as fleeting as clouds", he writes.
To help us register what he thinks we are losing, Smee takes us through a range of examples from literature and art. Chekhov looms largest in his intellectual landscape, as a writer who most eloquently dramatizes the schism between the inside and the outside of the self, between a "true core" and a "sham exterior". Cézanne, too, offers a vision of the self and "life" that is "fluid and multifaceted, like a rippling mosaic". Smee insists that these rich and intense visions of human life are increasingly lost to us.
Yet his essay is itself a powerful demonstration of the inner life at work. It is not structured by argumentative sequence, empirical data or any theoretical work on contemporary digital culture; if anything, Smee defers judgments, sets problems aside, asks questions and refuses to push further.
Net Loss is a classic essay in Montaigne's sense: experimenting and testing ideas (the French word essai comes from Latin exagium, "weighing": itself appropriate to Smee's astrological identity as a Libra, another account of the self he toys with then sets aside).
At one point he is tempted to read another story by Chekhov as "a prescient commentary" on the envy-inducing affects of Facebook. "I won't go there," he says. "But I will say two things that strike me about it now".
For all his fear about loss, or losing the inner life by giving too much of it away through panic at our own mortality, Smee's own choices, questions, worries, recollections, selections from books still structure his essay, which juxtaposes memories, quotations and descriptions of works of art, music, cinema and literature. The essay is a mosaic of cultural allusion that is meaningful precisely because it is held together by the narrative self that analyses and makes these connections. It is an example of distraction as an art form.


The February issue of Oprah Winfrey's O Magazine features four items fom QVC, HSN and ShopNBC in its "Great Buys Under $50" feature. The theme of the piece is great buys that are red.
The article, on page 96, cites two pieces from HSN. One is a pair of platform heels from Hot in Hollywood, the line done by Laurie Feltheimer, the wife of Lionsgate chief Jon Feltheimer. Lionsgate produces TV shows such as AMC's great "Mad Men" and Showtime's "Nurse Jackie." The shoes go for $49.
The second HSN item is a $35 brooch from HSN's V by Eva jewelry line.
The magazine also spotlights a $40 croc-patterned clutch purse from Joan River's QVC collection.
Finally, O Magazine cites a Waltham bangle watch that ShopNBC sells.
The good news for shoppers is that the magazine says the watch is $32. But ShopNBC has it on clearance now, and it's been reduced to only $20.
We apologize, but new home shopping posts will be late today. We spent Wednesday night at a screening of a Showtime documentary on our fellow Jerseyites Bon Jovi.
At the after-party, we briefly interviewed Jon Bon Jovi and Richie Sambora. We caught the director Phil Griffin at the theater.
It was a late evening, and now we are transcribing our interviews for a story on the documentary, "When We Were Beautiful," for NewJerseyNewsroom.com.
Showtime knows how to do a screening. Tequila maker Hornitos sponsored the event, serving all kinds of tequila drinks, so the crowd was liquored up when they went in to watch the film. We have a small bottle of Hornitos, which we copped at the after-party, sitting on our kitchen table.

Germany catches up with the UK on executive pay
By Marianne Calnan	 7th January 2015 12:25 pm 3rd November 2015 4:52 pm
German companies are catching up with those in the UK when it comes to executive pay levels, according to an annual study by Vlerick Business School's Executive Remuneration Research Centre.
Its report, which surveyed 512 companies in the UK, Germany, The Netherlands, France and Belgium, found that among those with assets worth over €5 billion, the best-paid chief executive officers (CEOs) are found in Germany receiving a median total compensation of €3.4 million, which is marginally higher than in the UK.
The data was split and analysed for three different categories: companies with total assets of under €500 million, those with €500 million to €1 billion and those with over €5 billion. The best paid CEOs in companies with assets under €5 billion are found in the UK.
The research also looked at pay developments over the last three years, particularly with regard to retirement benefits and variable remuneration.
It also found:
In the UK and Germany, remuneration packages are heavily reliant on variable remuneration (both short and long-term incentives) and these make up 67% and 61% respectively of a CEO's total pay.
Just under half (49%) of the companies across the five countries studied did not grant a CEO pay rise, or have reduced their total remuneration in the last three years.
61% of UK CEOs did not receive a raise.
Seven out of 10 CEOs in Germany were given a raise.
Professor Xavier Baeten, reward management expert and founder of the Vlerick Reward Centre, said: "The changes we see this year are influenced by the fact that most UK organisations did not grant a pay rise to their CEOs, while most German organisations did.
"Business size is the most important factor determining the level of CEO pay. However, the structure of the pay, [that is] proportion of fixed pay and design of variable pay, is mainly driven by the country in which the firm is located.
"For this, legislation and national cultures play an important role. Judging by the pay discrepancies, the idea of a 'unified Europe' seems to be a distant dream."

Now is a good time to prepare for the 2015 RCRA hazardous waste reporting year (also known as the RCRA Biennial Generator Report). All facilities that generate 2,200 or more pounds of hazardous waste, or 2.2 or more pounds of acutely hazardous waste, in any calendar month during 2015 will be required to complete a Biennial Generator Report in early 2016. A one-time clean-up, spill, or malfunction of equipment can result in the generation of more than 2,200 pounds of hazardous waste, or more than 2.2 pounds of acutely hazardous waste, in a calendar month. Just one such event can subject a facility to Biennial Generator Reporting requirements; the current registered generator status of a facility (large quantity generator, small quantity generator, or conditionally-exempt small quantity generator) is not the determining factor.
The Nevada Business Environmental Program (BEP) recommends that facilities develop a waste minimization strategy to remain below the reporting thresholds. For those facilities that are unable to stay below the regulatory reporting thresholds, however, the use of a tracking calendar is an easy and convenient tool that will come in handy when reports are due in early 2016. The Nevada BEP offers a free and downloadable calendar just for this purpose.
Look for announcements in late 2015 for our next round of training on Biennial Generator Reporting. In the meantime, to develop waste management and minimization strategies for 2015 that can keep your facility under the large quantity generator reporting threshold, thus saving valuable time and effort, contact the Nevada BEP toll free at 1.800.882.3233 to request a free and confidential site assessment by our team of experts.

Land deals save the exploiters
Posted on September 12, 2000	by Other News Sources
When the Federation of Ontario Naturalists' Ric Symmes, along with his counterparts at World Wildlife Fund and the Wildlands League, negotiated the Ontario Forest Accord last year with government and industry, they achieved something that would have otherwise been politically impossible — this century's largest giveaway of Ontario's resources to logging and mining interests. This deal, Mr. Symmes claims, was a necessary compromise given "the difficult economy of the 1990s."
The 1990s difficult? Apart from the early 1990s, the decade was recession-free. By 1999, the year these groups signed the accord, unemployment had dropped to 1970s levels, inflation was less than 2%, government debt plummeted as the federal government and most provinces began running surpluses, exports soared and the TSE — in its biggest bull run ever — had transformed itself into a high-tech index and was poised to overtake the Dow Jones.
Many industries boomed in the 1990s, but not the ones Mr. Symmes identifies with. Not the forest industry, whose investors were fleeing, and not mining, whose stock promoters abandoned it in droves for the dot-com world. Mining and logging, two of the country's chief rapers of the environment, were on the ropes. In their time of need, Mr. Symmes was there for them. With his help, they received government guarantees no other industrial sector could ever imagine — including perpetual access to price-frozen resources.
Instead of letting nature take her course, and letting these outdated industries contract drastically to their economically rational size, the Forest Accord ensures that the mining and forestry industries live to rape another day. In his zeal to cut a deal, Mr. Symmes has not protected the environment; he has protected two of its chief exploiters from the marketplace. Mr. Symmes pretends his deal has widespread support. In fact, the deal he and his cohorts signed with government and industry behind closed doors had widespread opposition among environmental groups, the native community and tourist operators: If the tourist industry needs intact forests to grow, it will now be taxed to compensate loggers. Neither is this resource giveaway economically sound: No independent economist in the country would endorse subsidizing money-losing resource sectors at the expense of the productive parts of the economy.
My colleague at Sierra Club, Elizabeth May, claims forests fare no better on private lands than on Crown lands. Having studied forest land regimes in Canada, the United States, Sweden, Finland, and several Third World countries, I know Ms. May to be entirely misinformed. She deplores the state of private woodlots in the Maritimes, which she presents as some sort of unregulated bastion of free-market forestry. In fact, Maritime governments thoroughly control small woodlots, adjusting wood marketing board regulations to increase feedstocks to the mills, devising managed woodlot programs to subsidize those who agree to log, and punishing woodlot owners who would otherwise stop logging. Nova Scotia's "change-of use" tax — a steep 20% of the land's market value as a managed woodlot — dissuades small owners from, for example, retiring on their woodlots by putting them to cottage use. The tax "keeps it in production, in forestry use," explains Arden Whidden, the province's director of private lands.
Yes, in the Maritimes some small woodlot owners have been clearcutting. Some, to Ms. May's way of thinking, may be greedy; Others may need the money for their retirement. But the vast majority — about 90% of New Brunswick's 40,000 woodlot owners, for example — have refused to clearcut, despite government policies that push them to do so, despite six years of sky-high prices, and despite the aggressive tactics of logging contractors that Ms. May describes. Small woodlot owners tend to log selectively or not at all. Yet Ms. May equates their conduct to the government's – – even implying they clearcut more than government — when clearcutting accounts for more than 90% of logging on Crown-owned timberland, regardless of wood prices. The contrast between logging on private woodlots and logging on Crown land could not be more clear cut.
The giveaway of Ontario's resources did not start with the Ontario Forest Accord, as the Wildlands League's Lara Ellis correctly notes. But prior to the so-called Lands for Life negotiations that led to the accord, resource companies had limited rights and – – without subsidies — little or no ability to wreak havoc on the environment. That has changed, explains the Canadian Environmental Law Association, one of Canada's leading environmental law firms, in a damning brief on the dealmaking, which it dubbed "The Lands for Mining Companies."
CELA fears the government has given loggers and miners new rights "to such a degree that future governments and future generations will be precluded from making land use protection decisions. By arguably increasing the tenure of forestry and mineral interests in land use allocations, outside of the parks and protected areas designated, now, there will be huge economic costs to future governments who want to protect more land. This is partly because the process for additional protection is vague and non-specific, while the forest industry is given guarantees to present levels of fibre and wood supply, and without increased costs." The forestry companies also obtained "undisputedly and for the first time, access to the vast lands north of the 50th parallel," explains lawyer Theresa McClenaghan, principal author of the CELA brief.
Put another way, the resource companies knew what they were doing. And so did the Mike Harris government, which selected World Wildlife Fund, Wildlands League and Federation of Ontario Naturalists — and excluded natives and all other environmentalists — to negotiate in secret on behalf of all the rest of us.
In the past, environmentalists fought for full disclosure and a transparent public process. The Ontario Forest Accord, and the government-backed Clayoquot deal Elizabeth May defends, rips the heart out of environmental principles. The Clayoquot negotiations "were anything but open and transparent," says Valerie Langer of Friends of Clayoquot Sound. CELA's report states: "[T]hese commitments have been given to a selected group of companies, based on an arbitrary, ad hoc and non- public process."

Listen to Jay Glazer call into The Odd Couple with Chris Broussard and Rob Parker to talk about the breaking Odell Beckham Jr. to the Browns trade that was one of the most shocking transactions in NFL history.
Glazer predicted the Giants would trade Beckham on February 13th, a part of an online mailbag that asked Jay to make a 'Bold Prediction'… Which then became viral for the entire month as Glazer was routinely trolled by Giants fan who claimed the team would NEVER EVER trade a 'once in a generation talent' who was arguably the franchise's most popular player eveN. Even Giants GM Dave Gettleman had to tamp down Glazer's prediction by saying he didn't SIGN Odell to TRADE him.


CINCINNATI – The Wilmington Hurricane boys basketball team lost in non-conference action Saturday night at Winton Woods High School, 65-38.
Winton Woods is now 12-6 on the season, while WHS sees its overall record fall to 7-11.
Wilmington kept the game close before the Warriors, formerly known as the Greenhills Pioneers, pulled away in the early minutes of the fourth quarter. Wilmington trailed by just single digits, 43-34, after three quarters.
Winton Woods outscored WHS 11-2 in the first three minutes of the fourth, putting the game out of reach, 54-36. WHS scored just four points—all free throws— in the final quarter.
Wilmington held a slim 12-10 lead at the end of the first quarter, but struggled offensively in the second period, scoring just five points. Wilmington trailed 22-17 at halftime.
The much taller Warriors used their athleticism and quickness to their advantage in the second half, and they dominated the boards winning the rebounding battle, 40-21. WHS was held to just three offensive boards on the night, while the Warriors grabbed 15.
Winton Woods placed three starters in double figures with Rashaun Brown and Aaron Ward scoring 16 points each. DeMari Martin added 14.
Matthew Butcher led the Wilmington scoring attack with 15 points, including 10 in the third quarter. Butcher also connected for three treys on the night.
Sam Jacobyansky added nine points, including six in the second half of play.
As the regular season heads into the home stretch, Noszka says his squad needs to find a way to put it all together and get back on track.
"Right now, we have two home games left and we need to send our seniors out on a winning note," he said.
The Hurricane will host Batavia Tuesday in SBAAC American Division action at Fred Summers Court.

Mary Faniku Kaviamu
Breaking Barriers
By Kiery Manassah
Politics – like in many other countries – even developed ones, has been the domain of male politicians for centuries. In Vanuatu it is no different. Vanuatu's history tells us that since 1980, only a handful of our women-folks have managed to successfully enter parliament. Thus, entering parliament based on merit, especially for a woman can be challenging, as this Tanna political hopeful of March 19th 2020 general election can attest.
Mary Faniku Kaviamu, 59, chose to deliberately use her maiden name (as opposed to her more common name 'Jack' – the surname of her deceased spouse). Her husband, Geordie Jack Usamoli was a former British (and then Vanuatu) police inspector from the late 1970s up until the early 80s. It is not uncommon for politicians to use their full names when lodging applications. A name gives one a sense of identity, and for some, it can be their crucial link to voters.
Kaviamu's interest in national affairs, could be linked to her own father, Steven Iatika, a well-known Tanna businessman and entrepreneur in the colonial days who in the 1960s and 70s bought copra from farmers to export overseas.
Tannese folklore states that women, figuratively speaking, cannot be captain of a ship. If allowed, either it won't be smooth sailing, or worse, the ship could run aground. As such, traditionally Tannese men have a lot of say in how their communities operate and function. Women can voice their views within a community 'nakamal' setting, but often through male intermediaries.
In Kaviamu's first attempt to get elected four years ago, it was as if she was out to prove a point, despite that it was completely uncharted waters. Never before have women in Tanna stood in front of their male leaders, to canvass their support for their political aspirations.
As such, Mary's 340 votes in 2016 was something of a pleasant surprise to many.
In the run up to March 19th 2020, prior to launching her campaign, the mother of three fully grown adult children (and five adorable grandkids) took a hard look at what lay ahead – assessing all her chances. As a widow –well past retirement age, she could not afford to be spending money just for the sake of it. She needed to be assured that this would not be another meaningless mission.
"Assessing the situation; the context, the timing and the associated risks, something inside me told me I should just step aside," she says. Kaviamu became fully cognisant of the fact that Tanna, as a constituency had matured greatly over the years, at least with the results of 2016 when the people's desire for change was made abundantly evident in the final results of the race. She knew full well she would be up against some of the best Tanna had produced.
This past election she managed 299 votes – a slight decrease from the number she polled in her first attempt. She acknowledges the results represented deep seated issues not only engrained culturally but also structurally. And if women like her would stand any chance, they would need to be addressed.
"In 2016 the women I worked with were quite scared. Really scared. Some feared that their husbands would divorce them if results turned out a certain way.
"I saw a major difference in their approach to politics this time round. Unlike in 2016, we saw a much improved attitude towards our campaign team," she says. In other words most seemed to accept that Tanna has turned a corner and accept that the women of Tanna are part of the political landscape.
Kaviamu points to one highlight where at least five chiefs from five different communities, including the famous John Frum village at Sulphur Bay, stood up to declare publicly that they were allowing their women-folks and their girls to exercise their power of choice, albeit with a sense of nostalgia: "Why hadn't you come earlier." They were implying people had made their minds up to some extent.
When asked if she thought women will eventually make the breakthrough sometime soon, she replied: "I believe so, because it is a process. It is something that will take time to fully accept. It's not just a process for the men, it's a learning process for women too," Kaviamu says.
She adds: "All the men that we met on the campaign trail voiced support. Only that they have yet to show it by casting a vote for a woman candidate."
Her biggest challenge? "It's corruption. Corruption is the biggest challenge. It's a system created by politicians to 'feed the stomach'. We call it 'belitiks', not politics," she says. 'Belitiks' is Bislama political speak for the practice of going after politicians to fulfil one's own personal needs.
"It's like a 'give-and-take' system of politics," she says.
She illustrated this challenge by making reference to a 'Blue tent' funded in 2015 by international NGO — ActionAid, which she was involved in just after cyclone Pam, as a space to discuss and document community needs identified by women so that assistance could be sourced to fund them. Because communities did not receive any funding assistance towards the community needs identified, the campaign team received some criticisms for this on the campaign trail. The tent was apparently set up in collaboration with the Ministry of Justice and Department of Women's Affairs.
"Given that our type of politics is influenced by a 'give and take' mentality, it makes it even more difficult for voters to make their choices if they think you have not responded to their needs," she says.
Things like bush knives, spades, chicken wire and solar lights could often be the difference between winning and losing an election in Vanuatu. And unless an intending candidate has worked so closely with their communities – and the electorate has made its mind up for a change in leadership, incumbent politicians will always have the upper hand because they can afford to spend constituency money and allowances on such items. For everyone else, it is often a big ask. Usually most don't have that kind of money to lavish on their constituents, which greatly disadvantages candidates with no financial backing.
"That is what I mean by corruption," she says.
Kaviamu alleges her team came across activities that looked dodgy during campaigning. But when asked why she did not lodge any complaints, she responded almost immediately: "Where are we supposed to get the money to fight corruption? We'd spent all our funds. The costs of accessing justice is so high. We just did not have the extra funds to document, or fund lawyer fees," she says.
She reported there was an instance where a young boy – appearing to be at the age of 11 or 12 – well below the legal voting age of 18, came into a polling station. Not knowing exactly what to do, he had to be guided into the voting booth by his father to cast his ballot. There was another incident where at a particular polling station, as there was still time left until the 4.30pm closing time for all polling stations, officers actually took ballots out from the polling station – contrary to election rules – into communities looking for people to cast their votes. These incidents were noted by Kaviamu's own election observers. "We witnessed these types of malpractices but who should receive these complaints and deal with them appropriately? Our systems are weak.
"We may have rules and regulations in place but there is not enough policing and enforcement," she says.
When asked about whether she thought reserved seats for women would improve women representation in parliament, the Tannese community activist responded: "We wouldn't be talking about that if there was a level playing field, and currently there is none. Women are still greatly disadvantaged. I support reserved seats if authorities cannot address corruption and basic infringement of electoral laws."
During her working years, Kaviamu did secretarial work with Labour department until 2000. She later entered Tafea provincial council and held various responsibilities as Acting Planner, Project Officer, Area Secretary, and Acting-Secretary General – the first woman to be appointed in that position. And in 2009 she decided to take up a scholarship to study Rural Community Development in New Zealand. When she returned she worked with the former Pacific Institute of Public Policy (PiPP) – a Pacific think-tank established to stimulate and support public debate on key policy issues of the region.
Kaviamu has an eye on 2024, but first she says, she needs to do a bit more homework on securing a seat in the Tafea provincial council before looking into the future. Her team plans to field a candidate when Tafea province goes to the polls in 2021.
If it's any consolation for women on Tanna, four years since she first decided to take the plunge, Kaviamu believes she has seen and heard enough to say with some confidence that there is light at the end of the tunnel.
Young entrepreneur aims high


For the first time, more than $1 billion in industrial assets are expected to transact in Brisbane this year, the The Courier-Mail reported.
JLL director industrial — Queensland Aaron Bates told the newspaper that about $750 million in transactions above $5 million had already been completed in Brisbane and another $320 million were "about to land".
The previous Brisbane industrial sales record was way back in 2007 when $954 million transacted.
"We're going to smash that figure," Mr Bates told The Courier-Mail.
According to JLL research Singaporeans were the biggest buyers, while just over $400 million of the transactions involved offshore buyers.
More than $700 million of the completed and expected transactions were in Brisbane's south and south west.
Mr Bates told the newspaper that Brisbane industrial property had come back into favour after a tough patch following the GFC.
"Brisbane is undersupplied with quality industrial assets and at the moment investors are seeing high occupancy rates, stable rents and economic conditions are good with tourism up, exports up, retail relatively strong and the housing markets performing well," he said.
"While mining sectors have taken a hit, the warehousing and logistics sectors are continuing to expand their presence in South East Queensland".
Mr Bates said Australia was firmly on the radar of international investors.
"The world is looking at Australia and Brisbane is a part of that," he said.
He said yields for prime industrial assets had tightened to 6-7 per cent.


Shruti Haasan is all set to make a comeback of sorts in Tamil cinema later this year. Her previous film '3' released back in 2012 and except for singing couple of songs in Tamil, she hasn't signed a Tamil film in a long time now.
This year, she's going to pair up with Vishal in a mass entertainer titled Poojai. Hari is going to direct the film and the film will go on floors later this month. A photoshoot was done on Vishal and Shruti Haasan earlier today and the entire team is excited about how the script has shaped up. Hari had earlier directed mass entertainers like Singham and Singham 2 with Suriya in lead role and Vishal has pinned high hopes on this film.
On the other hand, Shruti Haasan recently wrapped up a long schedule in Dubai of her upcoming Hindi film Welcome Back. Apart from this film, she has also signed a film to be directed by Tigmanshu Dhulia and she'll soon be seen in a sizzling new avatar in Allu Arjun starrer Race Gurram.

dpkg-deb: relocation error: dpkg-deb: symbol lzma_stream_encoder_mt_memusage, version XZ_5.2 not defined in file liblzma.so.5 with link time reference

The message is very clear, but it's not clear to me how this should be fixed.

*

*I've tried reinstalling liblzma5 from the default 17.10 PPAs, with no dice.

*I've also tried to apt install --reinstall dpkg, also to no effect.

*I've tried installing liblzma5 from source and updating my $LDPATH to reflect the new build's path, but I'm not sure which flags to use to export the missing symbol; a plain ./configure && make && make install doesn't seem to.
How can I fix this issue?

A: I was able to fix this by copying the file /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/liblzma.so.5.2.2
from a machine already upgraded to bionic.

Here at Tapscott Homes, we like to make the process as simple for you as possible. Whilst we are well practised in the building industry, we know it can be a very daunting time for our clients. That's why we pride ourselves in having an extensive in-house colour selection range as well as a qualified consultant to help you make the best choices for your new home.
Traditionally, once you've committed to a builder they have you running around town to all of their different suppliers, picking and choosing what is to be the style and feel of your new home.
While this is great in terms of seeing the full range you may feel a little overwhelmed. How can you be sure your flooring works in with your feature tiles, and your feature tiles work in with your benchtops? How about your window frames; do they work with your exterior cladding and roof AS WELL as your interior wall colour? What if the supplier show you something you just LOVE but its not allowed for in the standard price range? GREAT... now you're up for extra $$$.
SO MUCH CONFUSION ... BRAIN OVERLOADING... and que mental breakdown.
How do Tapscott Homes avoid this?
In our office, we have a full colour selection range. This includes everything from benchtops to tiles, colourbond, bricks, window frames, laminate, vinyl, carpet, robes inserts, paint colours, skirting and achitrave samples... everything we need to confidentely put together your interior and exterior in a way that is unique to you and your home.
We tend to allow a few hours depending on the size of the home. With tea and coffee to keep us going through the whole process it's quite enjoyable watching your home come together.
What if I'm not 100% happy with your selection?
If you really feel that there are things missing from our range or it just doesn't appeal to you, we are more than happy for you to go to our individual suppliers.
How often do we update our selection?
We update our selection as often as possible to maintain the highest quality products and finishes. Our suppliers ensure to keep us up to date with the latest trends and affordable, stylish selections.
Study your plan before your selection day; by the time you get around to doing your colour selection, you are getting to the tail end of your final plans. Study your plan so you know EXACTLY what you want and where you want it.
Ask questions; the more questions the better! Be curious, ask about that thing you saw on a house up the street that you just LOVED! We can always get it quoted and get back to you.
Be open; if your style is a little 'out there', that's fine! That's what custom design is all about- YOU. Just be open with us and help us understand what defines you and your taste.

CYOP #30 - Podcast Road Trip: Off to LA!
I'm so excited to be heading south to sunny Los Angeles this week for the first-ever Creating Your Own Path road trip! I've got a handful of amazing interviews lined up and I can't wait to meet these cool kids in person and share their stories with you all.
On a somewhat-related side note, this week's show will be a short mini edition with yours truly. Here's the deal: I've been working pretty much around the clock to bring some fun things to life (PROMPT CLUB, new one-on-one consulting options, the podcast, freelance work, etc.) and I needed to take a week off from at least one thing. You all know how that goes, right?
Can I be honest? Instagram is where I have the most fun online. I love sharing on that platform. So, if you want to follow along with my SoCal shenanigans, that's where you'll get all of the behind-the-scenes goodness (find it all at #CYOProadtrip). Also: last week I started a hashtag for all you awesome listeners to share where and how you listen to the show! So, take a fun picture (like Jessica did) showing us all where you listen and share it using the hashtag #CYOPwhereilisten. Who knows—you might have a chance to be featured on my feed and on the blog!
The show has welcomed a ton of new listeners over the last few months so if you're new to the show, this week is a great time to catch up! A good place to start is with Episode 20, which gives you a birds-eye view of the first season. Fan favorites across both seasons include Episode 17 with musician Autumn Sky Hall, Episode 19 with blogger and maker Elise Blaha Cripe and Episode 22 with Allie Lehman of Death to the Stock Photo. If you're anything like me, you're an expert at binge listening. If that's the case, I'd recommend using iTunes, Stitcher or your favorite podcast app to subscribe and start from the beginning.
Happy listening and Instagramming, my friends. I'll catch you on the flip side!
