Think of this book as everything you’d want from the Internet all in one place, except without the constant distractions of ads, online shopping, and porn. In addition to hoarding mortifying situations that’ll make you feel way better about your choices, I’ve also accumulated a lot of knowledge from therapists, psychotherapists, and psychopaths, which can probably help you avoid making the same mistakes I’ve made. This book contains some delicious schadenfreude in which I recall such humiliating debacles as breaking my shoulder while trying to impress a guy, coming very close to spending my life in a Guatemalan prison, and having my lacerated ear sewn back on by a deaf guy after losing it in a torrid love affair. Here are all the stories and mistakes I’ve made that were way too embarrassing to tell on stage in front of an actual audience but thanks to not-so-modern technology, you can read about them here so I don’t have to risk having your judgmental eye contact crush my self-esteem.

If you buy a vehicle for business you can claim this as a capital allowance (providing you’re not using simplified expenses).įor equipment you buy and keep for business use, such as computers, you can only claim allowable expenses if you use cash basis accounting. And, you can’t charge for fuel or mileage for travel between your home and normal premises. Parking or speeding fines aren’t allowable expenses – they’ll have to come out of your own pocket. Disallowable expenses: what can’t you claim for? ![]() Allowable business expenses can be claimed for staff uniforms (44) and protective clothing (45). You can also claim for parking (40), train, bus, air and taxi fares (41), hotel room costs (42) and meals for overnight business trips (43). ![]() Allowable expenses also include car and van insurance (33), vehicle repairs (34) and servicing (35), fuel used for business (36), vehicle hire charges (37), vehicle licence fees (38) and breakdown cover (39). If you buy a vehicle for your business, you can claim it as a capital allowance. Vehicle, travel, accommodation and clothing Accountants, solicitors, surveyors, architects and other professional fees (31) can be claimed, professional indemnity insurance premiums (32), too. You can also claim for trade or professional journals (29) and trade body or professional organisation membership (30) if relevant to your business. Advertising, professional fees and others expensesĪllowable expenses can be claimed for advertising (27) your products or services in newspapers, magazines, directories, websites, etc, as well as marketing costs (28) such as direct mail, free samples and creating a website. If you use traditional accounting (ie where you record income and expenses by the date you invoiced or billed), irrecoverable debts (26) that are written off are allowable expenses. If you use cash basis accounting, the most you can claim for interest and incidental costs of obtaining loan finance is £500. Interest on bank and other business loans (21) and alternative finance payments (22), such as Islamic finance, can also be claimed as allowable expenses, as can bank, overdraft and credit card charges (23), hire purchase interest (24) and leasing payments (25). If you use cash basis accounting (ie you only record income or expenses when you receive money or pay a bill), the cost of equipment and tools (20) can also be claimed as an allowable expense. Allowable expenses also include postage (15), stationery (16), printing (17), small office equipment (18) and computer software/ink cartridges (19). Telephone (12), mobile (13) and broadband (14) are allowable expenses, but only for business use. Phone, broadband, stationery and other office costs So, for example, if you use one room in your six-roomed house for business, you can claim a sixth of your electricity and gas bills (or a flat rate amount under simplified expenses).īusiness premises and equipment repairs and maintenance (10) are also allowable expenses for sole traders, as are repairs on a room you use at home for business (11) or a share of a larger repair (eg to a roof). If you use your home for business, you can claim a proportion of your utility bills for business use. But what else can and cannot be claimed as an allowable expense when you’re a sole trader? Rent, mortgage, rates, utilities and insuranceĪllowable expenses can include property rent (1), mortgage interest (2) and council tax (3), business rates (4), water rates (5), electricity (6), gas (7), insurance (8) and security costs (9). The cost of buying goods for sale or use to deliver a service are allowable expenses, as are payments to sub-contractors, agency fees, wages, salaries and other staff costs (eg bonuses, pensions, benefits, employers’ NICs, training, etc). If a bill covers business and personal use, you must use a reliable method to work out what proportion was for business use before claiming allowable expenses (although you can claim a flat rate). To qualify as an allowable expense, something must be bought “wholly and exclusively” for business. Thankfully, many can be deducted as allowable expenses from your taxable profits to lessen your Income Tax bill. Business expenses are inevitable when you’re a sole trader. ![]() Jessie is equally opaque - spunky, lively, intelligent in every scene except, again, the one is which she's sodomised. The point of art is surely that, to coin a phrase, it reaches the parts life cannot reach. Talk about Jekyll and Hyde! And I'm afraid it won't do to argue, as Roth has done to interviewers, that most paedophiles in life impress their neighbours as outwardly average human beings, normal in everything save their sexuality. Then, without the slightest hint of his latent pathology, he's suddenly revealed to us as a monster, an incestuous pervert. Were it not for his accent, he could be transplanted intact into an Australian soap. In every single scene except that in which he sodomises his daughter, Winstone plays his character as a bluff, harassed, self-made man, a bit rough round the edges, maybe, but loyally attentive to his wife (a barely recognisable Tilda Swinton) and a decent, not unkindly parent to his offspring. In the film's most graphically explicit scene, the naked, bawling Jessie is penetrated from behind by her father while the camera looks on dispassionately. Not because of the dramatisation of incest itself - it's a subject like any other - but because Roth, having opted for a mimetically naturalistic approach, has had to simulate that incest. I haven't read the novel by Alexander Stuart on which Tim Roth's The War Zone is based, but it's a deeply unsatisfactory and, for me, rather unpalatable film. Some days later he spies on them again, and this time so does the camera. ![]() Since we in the audience aren't privy to the sight, our view of Tom's character is clouded for a time by uncertainty as to whether he's actually telling the truth. One day, while mooching around, he chances to see his older sister Jessie (Lara Belmont) sharing a bathtub with their father (Ray Winstone). Tom (Freddie Cunliffe), a sullen, friendless teenager, has been uprooted with his family to a dank and underpopulated backwater in Devon. ![]() The best spin scrubbers: Reviews & Recommendations Best overall: Electric Spin Scrubber Cordless Shower Scrubber However, they present the challenges of making sure you don’t drop your very expensive electric drill into the toilet and avoiding splashbacks that could fry your drill’s electronics.

The process in Darktable is different: Darktable’s tools are good at addressing issues one at a time. Algorithmic quality of the standard highlight/shadow recovery is not brilliant, either, and sometimes I struggle with getting colors to look right. When it doesn’t work, you need to start digging into which combination of weirdly-named tools can undo each other sufficiently to reach the result you like. Instead of faffing with multiple modules and masks, I adjust exposure and contrast, then hit the “AI accent” and maybe “Color pop”, and be done with it. I often find Luminar’s tools great one-click solutions. This dichotomy between intuitive/easy and analytical/simple makes for a fascinating comparison. Darktable, in contrast, is all about “analytical” editing, where tools are as orthogonal and simple as possible. It provides easy tools that do many things at once towards a common goal. It goes all-in on “intuitive” tools such as the “mystic” slider. Luminar is perhaps the antithesis of Darktable. ![]() Most goals can be accomplished with most software if you know your way around them.
![]() Many range maps, however, show it growing east of a line from Ontario and Minnesota southward to Texas, plus Oklahoma and Kansas.Ĭarrion flower is dioecious, which means there are separate male and female plants. It is well documented in North and South Dakota. They are quite distinctive, as are the tendrils at the bases of the leaf stalks.Ĭarrion flower can be found in woods and thickets across our region. Unlike most leaves that have straight veins, some of the veins of carrion flower are curved. The plant produces alternate, oval shaped leaves that are 3-4 inches long and a 2-3 inches wide with smooth margins. The plant is in the Smilacaceae or Catbrier Family.Ĭarrion flower is a native herbaceous climbing vine. Although there are a few options, it is often carrion flower or Smilax herbacea.

Other plants with carrion-scented flowers ![]() Dimethyl sulfides, including disulfide and trisulfide have been detected in Amorphophallus. The sources of the flowers' unique scent is not fully identified, partly due to the extremely low concentration of the compounds (5 to 10 parts per billion), but simple amines present in decaying flesh, the appropriately named putrescine and cadaverine, are known to be present. These plants are sometimes placed in the genus Nemexia. The most familiar member of this groups is Smilax herbacea. These plants have a cluster of small greenish flowers. In North America, the herbaceous vines of the genus Smilax are known as Carrion flowers. The flowers in some species can be very large, notably Stapelia gigantea can reach 30 cm (12 inches) in diameter. This attracts scavenging flies, for pollination. The color of the flowers also mimics rotting meat. The flowers of all species are hairy to varying degrees and generate the odor of rotten flesh. Most species are native to South Africa, and are grown as potted plants elsewhere. They are small, spineless, cactus-like succulent plants. Plants in the genus Stapelia are also called "carrion flowers". ![]() It does not photosynthesize, but rather uses the host plant to obtain water and nutrients. arnoldii is a parasitic plant on Tetrastigma vine, which grows only in primary rainforests with no visible leaves, roots, or stem. It can grow to be 3 feet across and weigh up to 15 pounds. This rare flower is found in the rainforests of Indonesia. This odor attracts the flies that pollinate the plant. This plant has a mechanism to heat up the spadix to enhance the emission of the strong odor of decaying meat to attract its pollinators, carrion-eating beetles and "flesh flies" (family Sarcophagidae).įlowers of plants in the genus Rafflesia (family Rafflesiaceae) emit a repulsive odor, similar to that of rotting meat. Rather than a single flower, the titan arum presents an inflorescence or compound flower composed of a spadix or stalk of small and anatomically reduced male and female flowers, surrounded by a spathe that resembles a single giant petal. titan arum ( Amorphophallus titanum) which has the world's largest flower head, is also carrion flower.
