Stryker's American Register and Magazine, Volumen3
the Erie Canal, the Albany and Buffalo Railroad, the mannfactures and productions of this city, and the merchandise sold in this city to the Western trade, constitute the exports.
The States using the Lake route in 1848 for transporting their merchandise and other supplies, were Ohio, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, lowa, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, New York' bordering on lake Erie, and Canada West.
(Condensed tables are here given from the statements of the canal office, of the various quantities and valuation of canal imports, for the year 1848, and also, of the different kinds of property, quantities and value, which cleared by the Albany and Buffalo Railroad.
These tables, or similar ones, we have given in a former number. The report thus proceeds :)
From the foregoing statements the value of the Export Commerce (including Foreign, which amount will be given under its proper head) of Buffalo during the year 1848, may with considerable certainty be arrived at.

46,382 do. for Buffalo and that portion of New York on and near Lake Erie
8,072,345 Received by the Albany and Buffalo Railroad
11,285,177 To determine what amount of this sum of 11,285,177 dollars, enters into the Lake Commerce, the committee think, that by adding to it the value of manufactured articles of iron-mongery, cabinet ware, leather, white lead, upholstery, and the production of numerous other manufactures in this city; a large portion of dry goods of light weight but valuable, broughton by railroad originally started for the Western States; the export of the largest portion of the salt brought up the canal; the large amount of merchandise sold wholesale and retail to the Western traders;-it will not be exaggerating to place the value at three-fourths of the canal and railroad importation, which will give an amount of
8,463,883 Forming a total of
37,996,658 These statements show that the importations from the Eastward into this city, in 1848, were equal to the sum of $40,817,952; of which amount $37,996.653 entered into and formed the export commerce of 'this Port that year, to the Western States. The value of the imports from the Lakes so far as they can be arrived at, is $22,143,404, making the total of the Lake Cocomerce, of imports and exports from this port in 1848, $60,140,062. 4th. Exports, Foreign, quantity and value.
The Committee are unable to specify in detail the articles which make up our Foreign export trade, and can only refer to them by name. They consist of merchandise received by the Erie Canal originally destined for Canada, various articles of merchandise purchased in this city, as well as considerable wheat, flour, pork and whiskey used on the public works in Canada, and for the trade of the St. Lawrence. The amount of exports as given at the Custom House is $254,254, as follows:Exports, Foreign goods in American vessels
6,089 Foreign
52,906 Domestic produce in American vessels
51,938 Foreign
5th. Number of Steam Boats, Steam Propellers and Vessels Registered and Licensed
in the District of Buffalo, their tonnage and value.
By referring to the Custom House records, we find the following named Boats, Propellers and Vessels, their tonnage and the number of persons employed thereon, registered and licensed in this District in 1848.
(Here follows a table containing the names in full and the tonnage of all the
lake vessels, which is thus summed up by the Committee :)

13,531.39 401,300 Sloops and Scows
44,744.49 $1,722,400 To arrive at the value of this property was a most difficult matter. It would not answer to put it down at the original cost, nor yet so low, as to satisfy those owning it that we had placed a value upon it far below its real market as well as intrinsic worth. To obviate these objections, the committee not only appraised the several vessels, but they referred the matter to an experienced ship-carpenter, and to others well conversant with the property. The several parties made separate estimates without consultation with each other, and the amount arrived at, as stated in this report, is the result of the mode adopted. 6th.

742 208,101.05 10,095 The entrance and clearance of American vessels from and to Foreign ports in this statement appear very large; the reason of it is this—a steam ferryboat runs regularly across the Niagara river from Black Rock, which is included in the other arrivals and departures. To arrive at the number that justly and properly belongs to commerce, the committee exclude all the American arrivals and clearances from and to Foreign ports in the quarter ending March 31, and seven-eighths of the same during the remainder of the season. This, we are informed by the officials at the Custom House, would give a very near account of the number of American vessels engaged in commercial business with Foreign ports.
A statement of the entire number of arrivals and clearances we have given, and making therefrom the deductions above stated, shows that as near as the accounts can be made up, the arrivals and departures were 8084, with an aggregate tonnage of 2,045,175 tons. 8th. The population of the city, January 1, 1849.
Much diversity of opinion exists as to the real number of our population-many judicious persons putting it as high or higher than 45,000. The last official cen.. sus was the State census of 1845, which gave the number 29,837. Estimating from the number of votes polled, and from the number of children at our public schools, which is the only guide we have, the committee prefer placing the number at 40,000, to going beyond it. In 1850, only one year from this time, the United States census will be taken, when the true number will be ascertained. In estimating as we have to do now, the committee prefer erring by putting the number under, than over the real amount,
The answer to the ninth inquiry, viz.: The works of internal improvements constructed for the benefit of commerce, is deferred to a subsequent number.
GROWTH AND COMMERCE OF MILWAUKIE. Among the Lake ports which have sprung up as if by magic in the west, none have perhaps had a more rapid growth than Milwaukie, situated upon the Wisconsin shore of Lake Michigan. From the statistics of the place recently collected for the agent of the government, and published, it appears that in May, 1834, Mr. Solomon Juneau was the only white seitler within the limits of what is now the city of Milwaukie. The following table of census returns, taken since that period, exhibits the rate of increase in the population. 1838,
700 1840,
1,700 1842,
1846,- June 1,
9,655 1847,- Dec. 15,
14,061 1849,-Aug. (estimated)
18,000 Equally rapid has been the augmentation in the exports of produce, &c. It was in 1845, that the first shipments of wheat and flour, to any extent, were made from Milwaukie. The following table shows how this business grows.

Wheat bushels. Flour bbls. 1845,
213,448 15,756 1847,
1,148,807 201,942 It is proper to remark that the exports for 1849, in the above table, embrace those from July 1, 1848, 10 July 1, 1849, while those for the four previous years are for the season of navigation in each year respectively.
The value of exports from Milwaukie in 1848 were of manufactured articles $1,714,200, and of agricultural products $2,098,469, making a total of exports of $3,812,669. The value of imports of merchandise, &c., for the same period was $3,828,650. There are in Milwaukie five flouring mills, propelled by water power, and one by steam, containing seventeen run of stone, each run capable of turning out 80 to 100 bbls. flour per day, and consuming in all 7000 bushels wheat daily.
There are thirty-nine sail vessels owned in, and sailing out of that port, of which the total tonnage is 5,542; also, stock in steamers and propellers of 3000 10ns; making the total tonnage owned in the port 8,542,
Sixteen sail vessels are engaged exclusively in the lumber trade, and the remainder in freighting produce and merchandise.

MICHIGAN. The growth of this youthful member of the confederacy has been wonderfully rapid. In 1830 her settlement had hardly commenced; now her population is not less than 400,000. Her soil bears every species of grain which thrives in the State of New York. In 1847, she exported over one million of barrels of flour, an amount ten times greater than all the wheat and four that passed through the Erie canal from west of Buffalo in 1835. Her total tonnage in 1817 was over 35,000, and its value is estimated at $1,757,250. The aggregate commerce for the same year was over thirteen millions. Her fisheries yield $200,000 a year; her wool product is over $400,000. Iron, copper, salt, and plaster, are indigenous and abundant.

Schladming opens 10-seater gondola
23rd December 2019, by Abi Butcher
The 10-seater gondola is in the Planai section of Schladming's ski area
The Austrian ski resort of Schladming-Dachstein has opened a new 10-seat gondola in the Planai section of its ski area. The lift, which replaces an old six-seater 'bubble', uses state-of-the-art technology to increase capacity by an incredible 70 per cent.
The cabins on the new gondola are larger than usual, and ergonomically shaped with huge glass windows along with individual wood and leather seats to give skiers maximum comfort. Up to 3,800 people can be transported per hour, on a twelve-minute journey with adapted driving speed at top and bottom stations to make loading and unloading easier.
The old six-seater lift was dismantled and shipped to Argentina where it is being rebuilt in the Las Leñas ski area.
Schladming is a two-hour drive from Klagenfurt Airport, and has recently joined forces with both the airport and Easyjet to offer skiers free transport to their hotels in Austria, worth more than €200 return (or approximately £170). Click here for more information.

Tonight, I finally watched The Day the Earth Stood Still- the 1951 original. It's quite an impressive film. I'm not the biggest sci-fi fan but there's little denying that it was both well-made and influential. In the long run, it made me wonder, "How can I turn this into a mildly pointless entry for TDYLF?". TA-DA! Here are a bunch of aliens throughout history, presented chronologically. Perhaps seeing them chronologically will say something to you from a sociological vantage point about what scared and/or fascinated people throughout the various decades. As for how I'm viewing it? Look at the goofy pictures of aliens!
1977 = the best year for aliens.
Definitely a progression over the years. The prawns in District 9 looked incredible.
The scariest alien on there is Kevin Spacey.
Glad I didn't see this during lunch, somehow I knew you'll use THAT picture for Alien 🙂 Gotta laugh at Max Von Sydow's ridiculous makeup as Ming… but Flash Gordon rocked when I first saw it. I must say, the prawns in D-9 is just gross, but the movie really moved me.
I feel like I missed out by not seeing "Flash Gordon" when it first came out.
I thought about using the "Alien" spoof in Mel Brooks' "Spaceballs", which would've been more elaborately gross but at least would've gotten a laugh.

Here we are going to discuss the Radio Shack PRO-650 Desktop Scanner – I picked this up from amazon a while back now for around the 200 bucks mark – but was it really worth it? Let's find out.
The Radio Shack PRO-650 is a notable device because of its salient features. That is right, you heard us; it has a boatload of elements that makes it an impressive device for anyone who prefers listening to multiple channels. Let us have a look at the aspects that makes it a great tool.
Design – Easily, this is a smart looking scanner and there are no doubts about it. The gray body and the black detailing add to its looks without a second thought. Most users praise it for this and one cannot ignore them too.
Brand – Radio shack is a well-known name in electronics and is popular for its unique products. It has an array of products ranging from scanners, digital scanner, radios to drones. Investing in a brand means capitalizing in a quality product. You should always trust a brand over those fortnightly come and go companies. Radio Shack has proven its worth and now it time for you give it a consideration.
Functionality – This device can scan 200 channels and a PC interface that you can program. It comes with exclusive one touch service keys dedicated to police, fire, air and marine to name a few.

We suggest that you to understand how to work any scanner by reading from the manufacturer's guidelines or watching videos on youtube. There are quite a few ways of learning to operate it.

The driver, who police did not publicly identify, remained at the scene to cooperate and displayed no signs of impairment.
Villanueva succumbed to injuries from the crash.
The accident remains under investigation.
PEDESTRIAN ACCIDENT INVESTIGATION
This tragic accident underscores the dangers that pedestrians face every day in this country.
According to data from the Governors Highway Safety Association, the number of pedestrian fatalities in the United States has grown substantially faster than all other traffic deaths. An estimated 6,590 pedestrian fatalities occurred in 2019, the highest number in more than 30 years. In 2018, motor vehicles injured an additional 150,000 pedestrians, according to the National Safety Council.
"An accident reconstruction team is sometimes needed to help piece together what happened. All of these resources are necessary for helping clients receive monetary compensation for damages or a loss following a collision," said Bond, an experienced pedestrian attorney.
"It is almost always a driver's duty to yield to any pedestrian," said Stefano Formica, of counsel at Bond Legal. The family of Virginia Villanueva may be entitled to a wrongful death claim.
"Family members of wrongful death victims may seek damages for loss of income and companionship, pain and suffering, funeral expenses, and emotional distress following a tragic or catastrophic accident," said Formica.
Serving as an advocate, an attorney can help compassionately guide a family through this difficult time while protecting their rights.
"Insurance companies often try to pressure victims to settle for a quick payout for far less than the case is worth," Formica noted. "However, an attorney will vigorously advocate for their client to ensure that they are treated with respect and compensated fairly."
The Legal Advocate's national legal analysts Candice Bond and Stefano Formica are experienced in fatal pedestrian accidents, and if you or a family member need help they are available for a free consultation to guide you.
The staff of The Legal Advocate would like to extend our thoughts and prayers to Virginia Villanueva and family

A new date has been announced for Sergei Polunin and Alina Cojocaru's Romeo and Juliet at the Royal Albert Hall, which was postponed because of the Covid-19 lockdown

A new date has now been announced for the one off performance of Johan Kobborg's new Romeo and Juliet, starring Sergei Polunin and Alina Cojocaru, which had to be postponed as a result of the Covid-19 lockdown.
The performance will now take place on 6 May 2021.
Original tickets are valid for the new date.
Romeo and Juliet is the ultimate romantic tragedy; Sergei Polunin, a preternaturally talented ballet dancer with an erratic backstory, could be seen as the ultimate romantic hero (or anti-hero, depending on your point of view).
Certainly, his legions of mostly female fans display fierce loyalty to their idol; they, and many other balletomanes, will be beating a path to the Royal Albert Hall next spring for a one-off performance of a new version of the star-cross'd lovers' immortal tale.
This is a new version of the ballet, produced and choreographed by the Danish dancer Johan Kobborg, and starring his life partner Alina Cojocaru as Juliet.
Kobborg, a former star dancer and, incidentally, Cojocaru's first on-stage Romeo, uses Prokofiev's eloquent score, as did so many other choreographers before him, including Kenneth MacMillan in the Romeo and Juliet that Cojocaru and Kobborg used to dance when they were members of the Royal Ballet.
This new version, though, is Kobborg's own. Premiered to acclaim last summer at the vast Arena di Verona, it follows Shakespeare's story and uses the language of classical ballet, infused here and there with his own twists to bring it up to our times.
As the Italian magazine Danza & Danza put it in its review of the Verona performance: 'Kobborg's Romeo and Juliet flows between past and present, between medieval tones and modernity.'
Alina Cojocaru transcends all superlatives. A magnificently expressive dancer, with a technique to match, and the looks of a fragile waif, she is a perfect Juliet: innocent, passionate, headstrong, her final moments heartrending.
Polunin looks the part, and his dancing appears to have recovered some of its original brio as a result of his association with the consummate professional that's Johan Kobborg.
This Romeo and Juliet involves a full company, and has a striking set by the Canadian-based sculptor David Umemoto.

Pflugerville/Austin, TX – It has been a while since we heard from Rogness Brewing but from what we hear they were waiting and waiting for label approval to announce the release of Titanoboa, their new triple IPA.
The recent unearthing of Titanoboa was, for many, the most exciting fossil discovery since the T-Rex. A 48 foot snake that ate crocodiles with no effort deserves to have a beer named after it. After 60 million years in hiding, Titanoboa has been reborn as a triple IPA with 10 different hops added at 10 different times in the brewing process. The different additions create an aromatic and flavorful hop experience meant to counteract the bitterness. Featuring over 5 lb of hops per barrel, this is our most complex beer we have done to date and is truly the bigger, meaner brother of Gigantophis. Ideally served at 50 – 55°F.
We are very excited to unleash our newest hoppy beast unto the world (or central Texas, at least). Drink it fresh and allow it to warm up a bit in your glass for the best taste experience. A lot of work and time went into this beer. We hope you enjoy it. There are a few kegs around, but it was mostly bottled. Look for it on select shelves in Austin, Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, San Antonio, and surrounding areas. You can also try it this Saturday at our booth at the Big Texas Beer Fest in Dallas (if it lasts!).
After you grab a pint or bottle, you can vote for it in the "Best Imperial IPA Poll". Voting ends April 18.
We recently entered 3 beers into the Beverage Tasting Institute's World Beer Championships and are pleased to report all three were awarded medals! Gigantophis took silver, while Rook and Holiday were awarded gold. Crack one open this weekend to celebrate!


either of those benefits are calculated with reference to the use of the deduction.
10.2 The test that is applied under this Division is referred to as the income injection test. The test operates objectively and does not have a tax avoidance motive as one of its elements.
10.3 The test operates to limit the trust's capacity to deduct prior year losses or current year deductions in certain circumstances, even though a trust has satisfied any relevant tests set out in Divisions 266 and 267 (e.g. it satisfies the continuity of ownership test). This is where the benefit from the allowance of the deductions flows to persons (or certain associates) who have, in effect, given a benefit to a trustee or beneficiary of a trust (or associates of those persons) in return for the benefit of the deductions.
10.4 The income injection test does not apply to income injection schemes that take place wholly within a family group. It also does not apply to complying superannuation funds, complying approved deposit funds, pooled superannuation trusts, fixed unit trusts all of whose direct or indirect unit holders are exempt from income tax, and deceased estates within a reasonable administration period (see paragraph 272-100(c)).
When does the income injection test apply?
10.5 The following flow chart outlines, in broad terms, the circumstances in which the income injection test will apply.
What are the elements of the income injection test?
10.6 There are a number of elements that need to be met before the test applies. These are explained below.
10.8 For the test to apply there also has to be a scheme under which the things set out below happen.
10.10 Whether a benefit has been provided merely incidentally because a deduction is allowable to the trust depends on the particular facts and circumstances surrounding the scheme entered into.
What if a person who was an outsider before the scheme ceases to be one as part of the scheme?
10.12 Subsection 270-10(2) ensures that the income injection test cannot be easily avoided by, for example, the simple expedient of giving an outsider a fixed entitlement in the trust.
What are the consequences if the test is failed?
10.14 A trust has a current year deduction of $120,000 in relation to which the income injection test is failed. This deduction is not related to the derivation of the scheme assessable income. The scheme assessable income of the trust is $100,000 and the non-scheme assessable income of the trust is $20,000. In the absence of the income injection test, the net income of the trust would be $0 ($120,000 assessable income less the $120,000 deduction). Under paragraph 270-15(b), the net income of the trust is increased to $100,000. In addition, in accordance with paragraph 270-15(c), the trust has a carry forward loss under section 79E, or section 36-10 of the ITAA 1997, of $100,000 ($20,000 non-scheme assessable income less the $120,000 deduction).
10.15 If the $120,000 deduction mentioned above had instead been a prior year loss, in accordance with paragraph 270-15(d), $100,000 of that loss would have been available for carry forward to future years.
10.17 The term benefit is broadly defined and will include any benefit or advantage within the ordinary meaning of those expressions. However, it is defined to specifically include money or other property (whether tangible or intangible), rights or entitlements (whether proprietary or not), services and the extinguishment, forgiveness, release or waiver of a debt or other liability.
10.19 A benefit is intended to include all means whereby value is transferred between the relevant parties.
10.20 The income injection test will only ever apply where the person who has provided directly or indirectly a benefit to the trustee or beneficiary of the trust (or an associate), is an outsider to the trust. The meaning of outsider depends on whether or not the trust is a family trust.
10.21 An outsider to a family trust is any person other than those individuals and entities that can be described as being in the same family group as the family trust. It is by this means that the income injection test does not inhibit income injection schemes that take place wholly within a family group.
10.22 The persons who are not outsiders to a family trust are as set out in Table 10.1.
The individual specified in the trust's family trust election or a member of his or her family Note that the definition of family as contained in section 272-95 is effective from 7.30 pm (EST), 13 May 1997. Before that time the broader definition of family as contained in Item 25 (see paragraph 15.32).
A company, partnership or trust that has made an interposed entity election to be included in the family group of the individual specified in the trust's family trust election The interposed entity election must take effect before the scheme commenced. Note that an interposed entity election can take effect from a time before it is actually made in a tax return (see section 272-85). There is also a transitional provision that relates to this requirement (see item 24 discussed in paragraph 15.36).
family trusts of the same individual.
The family members etc. must beneficially hold the fixed entitlements at all times during the carrying out of the scheme. This means the income injection test may operate if the family acquires the trust as part of the scheme.
Note that the trustee of a family trust is taken to hold a fixed entitlement as an individual for its own benefit (see subsection 272-30(2)).
10.24 The following examples illustrate the application of the income injection test. Each example contains a diagram to give an overview of the facts for that example. Also, the references in each example to a trust doing a thing is a reference to the trustee of the trust doing that thing.
10.25 The same group of natural persons (A, B and C) control and are capable of benefiting (as discretionary objects) from two discretionary trusts, neither of which is a family trust. One of the trusts (Loss Trust) has incurred a loss in a previous year under section 36-10 of the ITAA 1997. The other trust (Income Trust) is profitable and is expected to continue to derive trust income and net income under Division 6 of Part III of the ITAA 1936 in the future.
10.26 The Loss Trust is added to the class of persons who are capable of benefiting under the Income Trust. The trustee of the Income Trust exercises its discretion to allocate net income of the Income Trust to the Loss Trust equal in amount to the amount of the prior year loss incurred by the Loss Trust (sheltered income). The distributable income of the Income Trust which represents the net income allocated to the Loss Trust is not paid to the Loss Trust, but is converted into a loan from the Loss Trust to the Income Trust. The terms of the loan are not evidenced in writing. The terms of the loan are that interest is chargeable at a nominal 1% rate and that interest is payable and principal is repayable at the times to be agreed between the parties in the future.
the Loss Trust has provided a benefit to the Income Trust by loaning back an amount equal to its income allocation.
10.28 The requirements of paragraph 270-10(1)(c) are satisfied on the basis that the net income allocation has been made to the Loss Trust so that income tax will not be payable on that net income. The Income Trust has retained use of the income through the low interest loan on terms that are not commercial. It is reasonable to conclude that the assessable income was derived by the Loss Trust, and the benefits provided by the two trusts to each other, wholly or partly because of the prior year loss deductions in the Loss Trust. The connection is more than merely incidental.
10.29 The income injection test operates to increase the net income of the Loss Trust to equal the amount of the net income allocation from the Income Trust.
10.30 Even if the loan back of the net income allocation was on commercial terms, the scheme could still be one that is subject to the income injection test if it is the case that the distribution has been made by the Income Trust to the Loss Trust wholly or partly, but not merely incidentally, because a deduction is allowable to the Loss Trust for the losses (e.g. so that income tax would not be payable on the income of the Income Trust).
10.31 The facts are the same as in Example 1 except that the allocation of net income to the Loss Trust is actually paid to the Loss Trust and is used to fund a distribution of income to A, B and C by the Loss Trust. This scheme is also one that is subject to the income injection test. Although a benefit has not been provided directly to the outsider (the Income Trust), a benefit has been provided to associates of the Income Trust (A, B and C). It is reasonable to conclude that the assessable income has been derived, and the benefits provided, wholly or partly, but not just incidentally, because the Loss Trust has prior year losses available for deduction. The scheme is effectively a means of distributing the income of the Income Trust to its beneficiaries in a tax free form by passing that income through the Loss Trust.
10.32 If the income from the Income Trust had not been distributed by the Loss Trust to A, B and C but had instead been accumulated in the Loss Trust, the income injection test would not apply. This is because there would be no benefit given to the outsider or an associate of the outsider (including any takers in default of appointment in relation to the Loss Trust). However, if a benefit did subsequently flow out of the Loss Trust under the same scheme, the income injection test may apply. This would occur, for example, if A, B and C are takers in default of appointment in relation to the Loss Trust and they accessed that income. Also, if a beneficiary of the Loss Trust had a fixed entitlement in the Loss Trust, there could be said to be a benefit provided to that beneficiary because of the increase in value of the beneficiary's interest in the trust.
the Income Trust has made an interposed entity election to be included in the family group of A.
10.34 The income injection test does not apply in this case. This is because the Income Trust is not an outsider to the Loss Trust.
B is made a discretionary object of the trust.
10.36 Distributions from Trust A to B are intended as a substitute for lease payments for the lease of the property. These distributions could be income according to ordinary concepts in the hands of B and thus assessable to B under section 6-5 of the ITAA 1997. This is because the distribution represents a return on the property owned by B under a profit making scheme. The analysis below shows the consequences under the income injection test on the assumption that the distribution is not income according to ordinary concepts in the hands of B.
10.37 Disregarding the operation of the income injection test, the net income of Trust A does not reflect the assessable income derived by the trust from the holding of the property because it is offset by the deduction allowable for the whole or part of the $1M prior year loss in the income year(s) in which the assessable income is derived. The trustee of Trust A exercises its discretion to distribute income of the trust to B in successive years in accordance with the scheme until such time as all of the $1M prior year loss is deducted by the trust in calculating its net income under Division 6 of Part III of the ITAA 1936.
10.38 In each income year in which income is distributed to B, B is not presently entitled to any net income of the trust under Division 6 of Part III, since the assessable income derived by the trust from the holding of the property is sheltered from tax by the deduction to the trust of the whole or part of the prior year loss. The distributions are less than the market rent for the property because they will not bear tax in the hands of B. Trust A retains the difference between the income it receives from the property and the distributions made to B, effectively as a fee for the use of its losses. In some cases, such a fee could take another form, e.g. deductions allowable to Trust A in connection with holding the property.
Trust A has provided a benefit to B by distributing income of the trust to B.
10.40 The requirements of paragraph 270-10(1)(c) are satisfied on the basis that either or both of the following is the case.
The scheme was entered into so that B could derive income from the property in a tax free form by leasing that property to Trust A. In this case, it would be reasonable to conclude that the assessable income was derived by Trust A, and the benefits between Trust A and B were provided, because of the prior year loss deductions in Trust A.
The lease by B of the income producing property to Trust A was for a price (i.e. the distributions) which was calculated with reference to the availability of the deduction to the trust of the prior year loss. That is, the amount of the distribution to B is lower than the market rent of the property because the distribution will not bear tax in the hands of B. There was, therefore, a benefit provided to B wholly or partly because the deduction for the prior year loss was allowable to the trust.
10.41 In neither of the above cases could it be said that the connection between the deduction and the assessable income and benefits was merely incidental.
10.42 The income injection test operates to increase the net income of Trust A to equal the amount of the assessable income derived by the trust from the holding of the property. Also, any deductions of Trust A in connection with the derivation of income from the leased property are not allowable to Trust A in calculating its net income or tax loss for that year.
10.43 A discretionary trust has prior year losses. It also has surplus cash from trading profits which it invests in units in a widely held property trust by subscribing to those units. The units in the property trust can be subscribed for by the public at the price paid by the discretionary trust for the units. The discretionary trust subsequently receives distributions of income in respect of its units. All unit holders in the property trust receive the same distribution per unit.
10.44 Although it could be said that there is a scheme under which the discretionary trust derives assessable income and benefits are provided between that trust and the property trust (an outsider), this is a case that is not affected by the income injection test.
10.45 It is not reasonable to conclude that the benefit provided by the discretionary trust to the property trust (the subscription price of the units) is provided wholly or partly because the discretionary trust has losses. This is because the price paid by the discretionary trust for the units is what would be paid by a person who did not have any prior year loss or any other allowable deduction. The investment was made in the units because the discretionary trust has available funds to invest. The fact that the after tax return to the discretionary trust on the investment will be greater because of the prior year losses in the discretionary trust does not alter this conclusion.
10.46 The benefits provided by the property trust to the discretionary trust (the units and the distributions of income) are given without any regard to the losses of the discretionary trust. This is because the value of the units and the income distributed in respect of the units would be the same if the units had been held by a person who did not have any allowable deduction in the income year for which the distribution was made by the property trust. It cannot, therefore, be reasonably concluded that the benefits are given, or that the assessable income is derived, wholly or partly because of the losses in the discretionary trust. The connection between the deduction and the assessable income and benefits is merely incidental.
10.47 Trust A, a discretionary trust which is not a family trust, has a net income under Division 6 of Part III of the ITAA 1936. It is issued with a small number of units in a unit trust (Loss Trust) which has incurred a loss in a previous year under section 79E, or a tax loss under section 36-10 of the ITAA 1997. The other units of the Loss Trust are held by Trust B which is also a discretionary trust. The only income Trust B has derived is distributions it has previously received from the Loss Trust.
10.48 The Loss Trust is added to the class of persons who are capable of benefiting under Trust A. The trustee of Trust A exercises its discretion to allocate an amount of net income to the Loss Trust equal to (or less than) the amount of the prior year losses incurred by the Loss Trust. This income is sheltered from tax using the losses. The trustee of the Loss Trust distributes some of the sheltered income back to Trust A and the rest is transferred back to Trust A through a non-arm's length transaction. The trustee of the Loss Trust distributes the rest of the sheltered income to Trust B (this represents a fee paid for the use of the losses in the Loss Trust).
10.49 Under subsection 270-25(2) an outsider to a non-family trust does not include a person with a fixed entitlement to a share of the income or capital of the trust. Assuming that Trust A has a fixed entitlement to a share of the income or capital of the Loss Trust it would normally not be an outsider to the Loss Trust. However, because of subsection 270-10(2) the income injection test will operate in this case.
if Trust A had not ceased to be an outsider, the requirements of subsection 270-10(1) would have been met in relation to the scheme.
10.51 An explanation of the requirements of subsection 270-10(1) is found in paragraphs 10.6 to 10.12.
10.52 The income injection test operates to increase the net income of the Loss Trust to equal the amount of the net income allocation from Trust A.
10.53 At the start of the year, Trust 1 carries on a retail business on a leased premises. The opportunity to purchase the premises arises and this is done through the establishment of a second trust (Trust 2). This trust is a discretionary trust and has X, Y and Z as discretionary objects. Trust 2 borrows the purchase price of the property ($1M) from A Bank at 10% (market interest). The loan is secured by a mortgage over the premises. The other costs to Trust 2 for the year are $20,000 of maintenance and administration costs. Trust 2 leases the property to Trust 1 for $80,000 per annum (market rent).
10.54 Trust 2 has assessable income of $80,000 and allowable deductions of $120,000 creating a $40,000 loss for the year under section 36-10 of the ITAA 1997. It also has a cash shortfall of $40,000 which is catered for through a loan (an overdraft facility) from B Bank at 15% (market interest). This overdraft is secured by personal guarantees by the directors of the corporate trustee of Trust 2, X and Y, and a second mortgage over the premises. The interest on the overdraft is incurred in the following year.
10.55 The income injection test does not apply to Trust 2 in relation to its deductions for interest or other costs. While it is possible to say that there is a scheme (the purchase of the property by Trust 2 and its lease to Trust 1) under which assessable income is derived (rent paid by Trust 1), and that there are benefits flowing between Trust 2 and various outsiders, it is not possible to say that the requirements of paragraph 270-10(1)(c) are satisfied.
10.56 If Trust 1 is treated as the outsider, it could not be said that either the lease of the property to Trust 1 or the payment of rent to Trust 2 are made wholly or partly because Trust 2 has allowable deductions for interest and other amounts. On the assumption that the property is leased on market terms that are not calculated with reference to the deductions of Trust 2, the benefits are provided between Trust 1 and Trust 2 without any regard to the deductions of Trust 2. In fact, the deductions are allowable to Trust 2 because the interest and other costs are incurred by Trust 2 in deriving the rental income from the property. For these reasons also, the assessable income derived by Trust 2 (the rent) is not derived wholly or partly because the trust has the deductions.
10.57 Applying the income injection test to A Bank as the outsider, it is not possible to conclude that the $1M loan or the interest payments on that loan are provided wholly or partly because the deductions for interest or other amounts are allowable to Trust 2. Assuming the loan is on market terms, the loan is made in order to fund the purchase of the property and not because of any allowable deductions Trust 2 may have in the future.
10.58 Applying the income injection test to B Bank as the outsider, it is also not possible to conclude that the $40,000 loan or interest payments are provided wholly or partly because the deductions for interest or other amounts are allowable. Assuming the overdraft is on market terms, the overdraft facility is used in order to cover a cash shortfall resulting from the liability of Trust 2 to pay the interest and other costs. It is not used because the interest and other costs are tax deductible.
10.59 A company becomes a partner in a leveraged leasing partnership which is formed for the purpose of acquiring depreciable assets with borrowed funds and leasing the assets for a term of ten years. In the first three years of the term of the lease, the taxable income of the partnership is nil as deductions of the partnership exceed assessable income derived by the partnership (e.g. because of depreciation expenses) in those years. However, in the last seven years of the term of the lease, the assessable income derived by the partnership under the leveraged leasing arrangement will exceed any allowable deductions.
10.60 Under a scheme, just prior to the end of the third year of the lease, the company (Assignor) assigns all of its 99% interest as a partner in the leveraged leasing partnership to a unit trust (Conduit Trust) by way of an Everett assignment in exchange for a lump sum. Under the scheme, units in the Conduit Trust are sold to other trusts (Loss Trusts) which incurred losses in previous years. The lump sum paid to the Assignor by the Conduit Trust for the leveraged lease is funded by the amounts paid by the Loss Trusts for the units. The price paid by the Loss Trusts for the units in the Conduit Trust are greater than would otherwise be expected because any income derived by the Loss Trusts from their unit holdings will be offset by the prior year losses they have. The Loss Trusts are effectively paid a fee for absorbing the assessable income of the Conduit Trust, the fee being the profit from the income they receive from holding units in the Conduit Trust.
10.61 The Assignor is not a trustee of any of the Loss Trusts and does not have a fixed entitlement to income or capital of any of the Loss Trusts. In a year or years of income (recoupment years) ending after the assignment, the Loss Trusts derive assessable income under Division 6 of Part III of the ITAA 1936 to the extent of any share of the net income of the Conduit Trust to which each of the Loss Trusts are presently entitled in accordance with their respective interests in the Conduit Trust. Disregarding the operation of the income injection test, the whole or part of the prior year losses incurred by the Loss Trusts constitute an allowable deduction to the Loss Trusts in the recoupment years with the result that they offset the assessable income so that it is not reflected in the net income of the Loss Trusts. The question is whether the income injection test applies to each Loss Trust in respect of their prior year loss deductions.
the Conduit Trust (an associate of each Loss Trust) has provided a benefit to the Assignor by making the lump sum payment to the Assignor (it could also be said that each Loss Trust has indirectly provided a benefit to the Assignor since the lump sum is funded by the purchase price of units in the Conduit Trust).
10.63 Paragraph 270-10(1)(c) is satisfied on the basis that the scheme was entered into so that the interest of the Assignor in the leveraged leasing partnership could be sold, via the Conduit Trust, to trusts with losses. This was because the Loss Trusts could pay, indirectly, a higher price for the partnership interest because any income they received from the partnership interest could, in the absence of the income injection test, be sheltered by their losses. In this case, it would be reasonable to conclude that the assessable income was derived by each Loss Trust, and the benefits between the parties were provided, wholly or partly because the prior year loss deductions were allowable in each Loss Trust. The connection is not merely incidental.
10.64 The conclusion above would be the same if the benefit provided directly or indirectly by the Loss Trusts (or an associate of the trusts) to the Assignor (or an associate of the Assignor) was a benefit other than the lump sum paid for the assignment, for example, a management fee or the release of a debt owed by the Assignor (or an associate of the Assignor).
each Loss Trust has provided a benefit to the Conduit Trust by paying the purchase price for the units.
10.66 Paragraph 270-10(1)(c) is satisfied on a similar basis as discussed in paragraph 10.63 above. In particular, the benefit provided to the Conduit Trust by each Loss Trust (i.e. the purchase price of the units) was higher than it otherwise would have been because the income derived from the Conduit Trust could be offset by the losses. It is therefore reasonable to conclude that this benefit was provided wholly or partly because of the prior year loss deductions in each Loss Trust.
10.67 The income injection test operates to increase the net income of each Loss Trust to equal the amount of the assessable income (i.e. the net income allocations) derived by each trust from the Conduit Trust.

Chemical Booklet Labels
Chemical products come in a variety of forms including liquids, frozen solids, pastes, powders, pills, gels, granules and gases. We produce a lot of booklet labels for business to business products which include industrial, professional or farming applications.
While some of these chemicals are shipped by tankers or rail cars, our products are used mostly for legal and instructional information on plastic, paper, metal or glass containers which includes boxes and bags. The sizes range from a vial with a similar diameter as a pencil to a large drum or big plastic mini-bulk. For AG Chem, it is common to see it shipped in pints, quarts, gallons and 2.5 gallon containers.
The government requires chemical manufacturers and repackagers to carry specific information on the products such as safety, first aid, precautionary statements, environmental hazards, storage and disposal and application instructions. It's known in the industry as a DFU. (Directions For Use).
Our job is to make all this information fit neatly on the product, look professional and be easy to open and use. It's not uncommon for JH Bertrand to produce booklet labels with 24 to 84 pages. We've done one as big as 112 pages!

WE LEARNED TO NEVER COMPROMISE DELIVERY FROM OUR AG CHEM CUSTOMERS.
JH Bertrand started making booklet labels for the agricultural chemical industry in the early 1980's. That's when the concept of never shutting down a production line became ingrained into our spirit.
The ag market has always been defined by emergency deliveries because they are caught in between constant label changes from the EPA and a very narrow margin for application of their products. We owe our ag chemical customers a lot because they taught us a very valuable discipline- do whatever it takes to make the delivery. It's been a major foundation of our business and a large part of our success.

AI has been a hot topic of discussion for a while now, inducing humans to speculate on the abundant opportunities that its development would bring in running businesses. But when it comes to the significant challenges that businesses endure, this technology is yet to have its big breakthrough, especially in regard to an organization's data security. IT teams in today's organizations face numerous threats apropos to security.
These issues may arise due to subtle changes taking place in the network because of hundreds of new devices signing up, or from employee-owned mobile phones and laptops. The scale of the challenges faced by the IT teams in interpreting and managing the cyber threats and data breaches is often just too vast. This is where machine learning comes in as the new defense.
Machine-learning algorithms can enable AI systems to detect distinct patterns of behaviors across all disparate data sources and the based on those recognized patterns, respond to the threats. Using machine learning in user entity and behavioral analytics (UEBA), IT managers can create persona-based risk model profiles of users for all the devices on a particular network.
As soon as a user or device behaves in an unfamiliar way, the machine sees it and raises the risk score of that particular user or device. The machine then accordingly sends an alert, which in many cases requires the user/device to validate again. And, in the case of a malevolent attack, the intruder will be isolated from the rest of the network, limiting the adversity of any potential damage that might have occurred.
With machine learning algorithms and techniques incorporated in the workplace, security teams are starting to benefit greatly. Based on the quality of the actions being proposed and the forensic data being furnished, this technology enables staff to make better decisions regarding the security of an organization. Machine learning is slowly solving the security paradox that all enterprises face today and hence it is time that organizations start thinking about implementing it in their security systems.

The Final Day for the Traditional Roman Rite Mass at St. Mary's by the Sea
Mrs. Kraychy can scratch one traditional Roman Rite Mass from her excellent Ecclesia Dei list. The last traditional Mass for the foreseeable future was celebrated at St. Mary's by the Sea in the Diocese of Orange this afternoon. Next week's Mass will be the Novus Ordo in Latin. For those interested, I understand it will be celebrated by one of the Norbertine priests who have been instructed by the Abbot that it is to be all in Latin, celebrated ad orientem, only using the Roman Canon and such other optons as bring it as close as possible to the traditional Roman Rite. I doubt if there's anything they can do about communion-in-the-hand and assorted other "options" which are "mandatory optional" and having nothing to do with Catholic tradition.
The traditional Mass did go out with a bang, though. In the first place it was as crowded as I've ever seen it. This noon Mass was SRO by 11:30. There were people along the side walls, a few people standing in the center aisle, the back of the church was full, the vestibule was full, there were people on the porch and going down the front steps. It was a solemn Mass, with celebrant, deacon,and subdeacon, crowds of altar boys, and several priests attending "in choir". The schola was of professional quality, some of the singers having sung with the Los Angeles Master Chorale. All the chant propers were sung and I think I recognized the Missa Papa Marcelli. A string quintet accompanied Mozart's Ave Verum Corpus at communion time.
No bishop found time in his busy schedule to honor this priest for 50 years of service.
Father Johnson was not well enough to celebrate the Mass but he gave the homily which was more of a farewell sermon as this Mass was in celebration of his 50 years as a priest and of his retirement as pastor and, as I believe the phrase is now, "from the active ministry."
The sermon was one of his stem-winders. He spoke of his early priesthood and being a bit out of step with the times even in the days leading up to The Council. The powers that be kicked him around even then, avoiding giving him a pastorate under any (or no) pretext. His "popularity" didn't increase after The Council. After the council his refusal to give communion in the hand was something of a last straw. They offered him a couple of choices. Father says they offered to "recycle" him. He didn't want to be "recycled". (Who would? It sounds like one of Mao's re-education camps.) Or he could go to this little out-of-the-way, one-priest parish on the verge of closure if he didn't take it. Nobody much attended there and they figured he couldn't do any "damage". The priest who was leaving said he'd get about 17 confessions during the Christmas season. That was St. Mary's 25 years ago.
The first thing he did was install an altar rail and make the sanctuary look like a sanctuary again. And he was off and running. The second thing he did was begin an extra Mass, a Latin N.O. High Mass at noon, which he didn't need permission for, and petition the bishop to allow him to make it a traditional Roman Rite Mass. The number of parishioners has multiplied many times over from his first days. These days he gets 17 confessions on the average week day. Confessions are heard 7 days a week at St. Mary's. (Or they were up until today. Monday will be a new regime and time will tell what practices continue.) His converts are in the hundreds, if not the thousands. We heard many of them testify to his zeal at the celebration after Mass. Is there another priest in this country who has walked his entire parish and knocked on the door of every single residence within the boundaries, whether Catholic or not? And if there is, has he begun again as soon as he finished the last residence? Fr. Johnson has done it 5 times through and would still be doing it if his health had not let him down.
I don't mind admitting to a few tears. Fr. Johnson will be missed more than he will ever know. But there are a few silver linings. The first, and probably the greatest is, that now as "an elderly, retired priest" he will be able to celebrate the traditional Mass every morning, 7 days a week, 52 weeks a year, instead of just once a week. Alas, it must be "without a congregation under the regulations. But even if I can't attend it, it's good to know this saintly man is celebrating it and bringing its graces down to our needy land. And, of course, it is not the end of every traditional Mass. There are others in the nearby Archdiocese of Los Angeles. They will mostly take a bit of driving to get to, but I did get new tires last week. Should be all set for a few long treks. And there are the Eastern Rite churches; always a glorious option.
There is one more option which was suggested by the diocese in an exquisite bit of smarmy cynicism. If we don't like the new rite, we can "always go to San Juan Capistrano". Yes, indeed, we can. How true. You may know there is an indult Mass at the Serra chapel in Capistrano. It's a magnificent setting for the old Mass. There is a glorious, gold-leaf, Spanish baroque reredos and some wonderful old Spanish statues and paintings. The chapel is over 200 years old. But here's the rub: it is also very tiny. The people who currently attend there need to arrive by 7:30 in order to get a seat for the 8:00 a.m. Mass. If you don't arrive until 8:00, you probably won't even be able to stand in the vestibule. You probably won't be able to see the Mass at all. Suggesting another 2 or 3 hundred people attend San Juan Capistrano gives you an idea of the sort of diseased humor that masquerades as pastoral care in some quarters.
Anybody know where I can get some gasoline for under $2.25 a gallon?


Traditional French macaroons are actually easy to make, regardless of the hype surrounding them. Plus, did you know that you only need less than 10 ingredients for the entire recipe?
We have tracked down the perfect recipe for delicious vanilla macaroons which the entire family is sure to love. Enjoy with juice for the kids, a cup of tea, or even a glass of champagne for a touch of glamour.
Fill a food processor with the ground almonds and 100g of icing sugar, then mix for 10-15 seconds.
In another bowl, whisk the 2 egg whites then add the remaining caster sugar until you have a soft meringue. Then add 1/2 teaspoon of the vanilla extract.
Fold the almond mixture into the meringue until you have a soft, consistent texture. Then pour it into a piping bag with a plain nozzle.
Line a tray with baking paper and preheat the oven to 160ºC (320ºF), then pipe out 32 rounds onto the tray. Leave the tray at room temperature for at least 15-30 minutes, then bake for 10 minutes.
For the filling, combine the butter (softened) and vanilla extract into a bowl until fluffy. Place it on the bottom of each round, then sandwich it with the top.

Download PDF "A Reflection on the Document One Ministry in the UCC" by David Hart
In the course of my long tenure of ministry at Bedford United Church, there came a day in Sunday worship when I chose to shed my traditional clerical alb and stole in favour of wearing my everyday "street" clothes. Little did I realize how this simple action would lead the congregation to a profound debate over the meaning of ministry! The document, "One Order of Ministry," presented to the 42nd General Council and now being disseminated throughout the church for conversation prior to the distribution of a remit, is achieving the same end.
I chose to shed the alb and stole as a symbolic action to emphasize that the entire community of faith is called to ministry. In worship we utilize lay presiders, scripture readers, providers of prayer, musical leaders and so on. In addition, lay people resource the administrative and ministry functions of the community. Given this reality, I suggested that no distinction should be made between myself as a person in ministry and them. Many of them had different ideas!
My congregation politely, but also sometimes passionately, told me that regardless of the "ministry of the whole people of God," I still had a special role or function amongst them, that of providing spiritual leadership. They expressed concern that the disuse of the alb and stole could lead to a diminishment of my stature amongst them and of the community's respect for me and my function. We chose to disagree for a while, and in time they came to appreciate my decision and to recognize that their worries had been unfounded.
In the years to follow, we began using as our collective affirmation in worship and on other occasions, the saying, "The Spirit in me Honours the Spirit in You", sometimes shortened to the single word Namaste. This phrase and saying has become deeply embedded in the hearts and psyche of the entire congregation. When we say it, we put our hands together in a position of prayer, an expression of a sacred recognition of the presence of the Spirit in one another. It embodies the recognition that regardless of function or position in the community we are all expressions of the one life of God; different in function but equal in essence.
As the United Church of Canada considers subsuming three originally distinct groups, namely designated lay ministers (DLM), diaconal ministers and ordained ministers, under the one heading of "ordination," I try to keep in mind the important distinction between function and status that has emerged in our congregation. It's a distinction the apostle Paul also highlights.
Paul states that "The body is one, even though it has many parts. It was by one Spirit that all of us, whether we are Jews or Greeks, slaves or citizens, were baptized into one body" (I Corinthians 12). Paul affirms what we too have discerned at Bedford United, that there are no distinctions separating people in terms of value or status in God's sight.
Paul does not deny that there are different functions and roles that people play. He says, "There are, indeed, many different members but one body." But the differing of function does not have any bearing on our status or inherent value as expressions of one God. In my mind, the significant issue to be resolved in the current debate regarding ministry is to clarify the distinction between status and function as it pertains to the term "ordination."
I will always remember the day of my ordination for a variety of wonderful reasons. But one of my more disturbing memories is of classmates who could not wait to don a clerical collar as a symbol of newfound status in the church. Is this what ordination is intended to represent? A newfound stature and status in the community? I think not.
The committee writing the report on ministry for the 42nd General Council did tussle with this issue. But I believe they came to the wrong decision. They concluded that since most DLMs, diaconal ministers and ordained ministers end up doing the same job, that of providing a "Ministry of Word, Sacrament and Pastoral Care" that they should all be ordained. However, at least for diaconal ministers, the intention of their training is not to do ordained but diaconal ministry. And many DLMs and ordained ministers will end up leaving congregational ministry of "Word, Sacrament and Pastoral Care" to provide administrative leadership for the church, to enter into educational or other forms of ministry. When these people retain the designation of "ordination" while no longer serving the ordination function, the title in their case becomes an expression of status and not of function.
I suspect that a significant reason why DLMs and diaconal ministers wish to be ordained, despite having undertaken significantly different educational and formation roles from those people traditionally moving towards ordination is two-fold. Indeed, they may recognize that they are performing the same role and function as ordained ministers and therefore feel they should receive the same designation. However, could it also be that they desire the same status that ordained ministers acquire with the ordination designation?
What strikes me as the most appropriate solution to this question is to remove all vestiges of a special status being endowed upon ordained ministers and to assign the word "ordination" strictly to function. In that case, ordination would no longer constitute a lifelong designation but would be strictly utilized as a title for people engaged in the ministry of "Word, Sacrament and Pastoral Care". In such cases, it would be locally applied by the judicatory responsible for assigning ministers to congregational ministries. The designation would be associated more truly with the ministry than the minister, and the minister would lose that designation when she or he left the position.
In this case, the church would still need to establish appropriate educational and formational eligibility requirements for people conducting ordained ministry. And I would argue that those requirements be strengthened rather than diminished given the complexity of today's world and the demands of ministry. But there could be different routes toward and mixes of education and formation to achieve those eligibility requirements. However, as long as I can remember, our church has been characterized by a tension between those in "ordained" ministry and those in the other streams of ministry. Perhaps the solution is not to endow the designation of "ordination" on everyone in ministry, but to assign it more selectively to those situations where it is truly appropriate and to remove all last vestiges of status associated with the term.
David Hart has been the spiritual leader of Bedford United Church in Bedford, Nova Scotia for the past 25 years.

The players will then have the option of wearing the caps during the games. Most of the games will be played Friday, but since the Royals and Rangers are off that day, they will wear their hats Saturday.
According to MLB.com, players will then autograph the hats and they will go on the auction block to raise money for he Broward Education Foundation, which will benefit the official Stoneman Douglas Victims' Fund.
The #Reds will join the rest of MLB in honoring victims of last week's shooting in Florida by wearing Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School hats at Friday's opening spring training game.

"It's a tragedy. It was a tragedy that hit the state of Florida, where we have two teams, but obviously has very specific baseball connections," commissioner Rob Manfred said. "Really a very strong sentiment among the clubs that this was the appropriate thing to do immediately."
Cubs' Anthony Rizzo denies trying to make political statement after Florida shooting
Originally, members of the Grapefruit League asked if they could don caps to honor the victims. The sentiment gained steam across training camps, and soon all 30 MLB teams were on board with the idea.
Fourteen students and three staff members died in the Feb. 14 shooting. Former student Nikolas Cruz, 19, was the alleged gunman.

When we speak of the National Park of Monti Sibillini, we do not speak only of nature inside the park art is the host, because in addition to discover it in churches and medieval fortifications, it can unearth some museums such as the one Visso, a lovely town of ancient origin.
At Visso there is the Museum of the Leopardi Manuscripts that traces the life of the famous poet and writer born in nearby Recanati. These precious manuscripts of Leopardi were owned by Prospero Viani, principal of a high school in Bologna, which in 1869, but due to economic difficulties, they had to sell and were purchased by Gaola Antinori, the mayor of Visso. The Museum is completed by twelve seventeenth-century paintings depicting 12 sibyls.
A Montefortino, among majestic mountains and lush nature, you can visit the Civic Art Gallery, housed in a beautiful building with ornate ceilings. Inside you can admire paintings, sculptures, drawings and other objects of fine workmanship.
Every small town in the Park has a nice and picturesque old town, most of them medieval, with defensive walls and doors. Among the best preserved countries and more interesting from an architectural point of view is reminiscent of Arquata del Tronto, with beautiful walled fortress, Castelsantangelo sul Nera, with the walls shaped like a triangle restored in recent years, Montefortino, Montemonaco and its castle, San Ginesio, Visso, with its imposing walls and a glorious past and Norcia, the prettiest village, charming and best preserved of the whole park.
The same Fiastra represented a fundamental importance to the city from the political-geographical point of view; seat of the Lords Magalotti exercising their "power" of four castles: Fiastra, Poggio, Apennines and Macereto. To visit is just absolutely the Magalotti Castle which houses the Benedictine church of San Paolo.
The Fiastra castle began to decline already under the Sforza period and was finally abandoned when Camerati domains were under the guidance of Cesare Varano which held that there were no special defensive strategic needs. Located on top of the hill and surrounded by walls covered a perimeter of more than 500 mt.
Every small town and the various fractions hide country churches or ancient abbeys, real architectural gems worthy of being discovered and admired. Among the most significant places of worship include:
the Abbey of Santa Maria in Rio Sacre, in the municipality of Acquacanina
the Abbey of San Salvatore, situated in the hamlet of Cessapalombo Monastery
the Sanctuary of the Blessed Ugolino in Fiastra
the Church of San Marco in the hamlet of San Marco di Fiastra
the Hermitage of San Leonardo, embedded in dell'Infernaccio Gorge
the Sanctuary of the Madonna dell'Ambro
the Basilica of San Benedetto in Norcia
the Parish of Santa Maria, with the beautiful crypt, located in Pievebovigliana
the Church of San Giusto, one of the finest examples of Romanesque architecture in the Marche, located in San Maroto Pievebovigliana
Abbey Sant'Eutizio in Preci
the Sanctuary of San Liberato, nestled in the woods at San Liberato San Ginesio
the Sanctuary of Macereto, isolated in nature, which belongs to the municipality of Visso.
The National Park of the Sibillini Mountains offers its visitors a wealth of museums that provide unforgettable experiences, we offer a list of some museums to visit during your stay in the Park:
Museum of the Chamois (Fiastra / Via del Lago # 5)
Pinacoteca Duranti (Montefortino / Via Roma snc Palazzo Leopardi)
Museum Of the Sibyl (Montemonaco / Villa Curi)
Museum Of Carbonaie (Tribio Montalto - Cessapalombo)
Museum Of our Earth (via St. Augustine 1 / Pieve Torina)
Museo Civic and Historical Archive (Fiastra / Via Roma n1)
Art-museum - Archaeological "R.Campelli" (Piazza Vittorio Veneto n.90 / Pievebovigliana)
Museum Of Pastoralism (Location Cupi / Visso)
Throughout the territory in different seasons of the year, they are held: festivals, events, pageants, concerts and exhibitions. The territory is rich in history and traditions, and as tradition says the food and wine is definitely one of the resources of this land. Lots of events for fans of good food and good wine. For a better understanding the topic and perhaps indulge your palate you just have to come and try it yourself.
