The plant turmeric (Curcuma longa) is very well known in India. The root is harvested, cleaned, dried, and powdered to be used as a spice (turmeric gives curry its beautiful golden yellow color) and as a medicine. Traditionally, turmeric was used for nearly every health condition known-from smallpox to a sprained ankle.he plant turmeric (Curcuma longa) is very well known in India.

You daily round-trip commute is now a business deduction, due to a simple tax loophole that says: Any miles driven between two business locations are deductible business miles. The fact that one of those two locations just happens to be your Home Office is fine and dandy with the IRS.
Re: mileage deduction. â04-15-2013 09:32 AM. Commuting mileage is miles driven between your home and regular place of doing business such as an office, store, etc. Since you perform your work at various client locations your mileage is deductible as business miles. The IRS regulations require that you keep a daily record of business mileage which lists the date, number of miles, and the reason it was necessary to go to each location.
