Brevard Zoo, Melbourne Florida
Brevard Zoo is a 50-acre zoo located in Melbourne, Florida. The zoo contains more than 577 animals representing 165 species from North and South America as well as Australia and Africa.
The zoo is divided into four loops.
They are: Expedition Africa, Australia/Asia, Wild Florida and La Selva. These loops are accessed off of the main loop that encircles the Flamingo Pond.
Park areas
Wildlife Detective Training Academy
The Wildlife Detective Training Academy, or WDTA, is a building focused specifically towards younger children and features terrariums containing many of the zoo's reptiles, amphibians, arthropods, and at least one mammal, a naked mole rat. It also features interactive activities, such as a sand pit, where children can dig up bones from an animal "crime scene", and an animal hospital where children can learn about animal anatomy and veterinary science. The WDTA also features a new mystery every month in which children can investigate and find clues throughout the zoo. The building is located to the right of the main entrance in a separate building.
Expedition Africa
Expedition Africa offers kayaking on the grounds of the zoo. Trained staff lead the kayak trips and provide informative dialogue during a slow glide past African-themed exhibits. These exhibits include: giraffes, white rhinos, and ostriches. After kayaking, visitors can climb up to an observation platform where the giraffes feed at eye-level. Siamang gibbons are located in-between the entrances to the Africa and Australia/Asia Loops. Cheetahs were added in February 2010.
Cape to Cairo Express
The Cape to Cairo Express is a train ride centered around Lemur Island, an island that houses the zoo's lemurs. Along the way visitors can also see dromedaries, Ostriches and Scimitar Oryxes. The train was relocated from the now defunct Boblo Island amusement park in Canada.
As its name implies, this loop features animals from Australia and Oceania. Visitors can find animals such as the red kangaroo, emu, and wallaby. Australia/Asia also hosts the free-flight aviary where visitors have the option of feeding rainbow lorikeets. The aviary is home to: galahs, lorikeets, cockatiels, kookaburras, shell ducks, roseate spoonbills, among others. It is divided into three sections – the "bat side" with fruit bats, the main exhibit with the lorikeets, and the turaco side with several species of turacos. The turaco side of the aviary is also where the butterfly exhibit is put up during its brief stay at the zoo of about six weeks each year. Siamang gibbons are located in-between the entrances to the Africa and Australia/Asia Loops. Visayan Warty Pigs were introduced to the zoo in June 2008, and replaced the dingo exhibit.
Wild Florida
River otters, alligators, crocodiles, and bobcats are just some of the animals on exhibit. This loop also contains a pack of the nearly extinct Red Wolf. Feeding is demonstrated in this loop. There is an area to pedal boat into a wetland environment.
La Selva
La Selva houses the zoo's jaguars and the zoo's Cottontop Tamarins and Golden-Headed Lion Tamarins. This loop also feature's Green Iguanas, a Baird's Tapir, a capybara, and a Patagonian Cavy. In March 2007, a newly constructed vulture exhibit opened, which houses King Vultures, Turkey Vultures, Black Vultures and a Yellow Headed Vulture. Vulture feedings and demonstrations are offered to visitors much the same way they are conducted within the Wild Florida loop.
Paws On
Paws On once provided a place for children to play in a playground, and a petting zoo for children to explore. The Contact Yard (petting zoo) had goats, chickens, a fallow deer, and a miniature horse and miniature donkey. It contains a Contact Yard, a shallow swimming area, an aquarium mimicking the underwater environment of the nearby Indian River Lagoon, an ice cream shop, and various other attractions aimed towards children of all ages. Attractions from the old Paws On that were kept include the Soil Cube and the Whale Slide. The Contact Yard now houses Alpacas, Pygmy goats, two species of deer, a Black Throated Monitor, and Armadillos.

The Western Cape Government's bid to secure clean energy received a boost from the United States Government after receiving US $0.7m grant through its Trade and Development Agency (USTDA).
Liquefied Natural Gas (LNG) is a key component of a lowest cost energy scenario for the country. This USTDA grant will further develop the opportunity for LNG in the province through a feasibility study on the demand and potential impact of LNG importation at Saldanha Bay. The study will also provide a preferred model for the importation of LNG for gas-to-power electricity generation capacity and for industrial, transportation, commercial, and domestic uses. The administration of the grant will be through GreenCape who will select a US firm to complete the study.
In a statement, Minister Winde said he would like to commend the USTDA for funding the initiative. "We must reduce our reliance on coal and make better decisions for our environment, and our economic future," he added.
Alternative Energy
Natural gas has the potential to play a key role in the plan to grow alternative energy sources. This supports the Western Cape's objective to secure a reliable and affordable energy supply. "We are also immensely proud of GreenCape for securing this vital piece of work. Their reputation as South Africa's leading energy advisory and support body is growing from strength to strength," he added.
According to Lida Fitts, USTDA's Regional Director for Sub-Saharan Africa USTDA is glad to support this project. It will help increase access to affordable, reliable energy in South Africa. "At the same time, this project will create opportunities for U.S. businesses in one of South Africa's growing sectors," he said.
According to Mike Mulcahy, CEO of GreenCape natural gas has a critical complementary role to renewable energy for power generation in a lowest cost, low carbon, energy future for South Africa. "GreenCape is grateful to USTDA for their support in exploring and unlocking these opportunities," he said.

Last week it was once again time for Billy's cricket club's annual dinner at Langley Castle and as we'd paid for the tickets a while back, and there was a free bus to take us there and back, we decided to go and have a relaxing evening out and just enjoy. Billy wore his trusty suit and I wore a dress I've worn before but teamed it up with winter white this time, as I'd worn black with it last time.
The food was beautiful as ever, and in fact Billy and I both anticipated leaving the starter as it really wasn't something we liked – but we polished off every scrap and loved it! It was pea and ham soup – a vivid green soup with ham hock sitting in the middle and half a boiled quail's egg to top it off. The main course was roast beef and accompaniments and the dessert a pear tart with ice cream. I could only manage half of my main and dessert so Billy had to finish them off for me (it's a tough job, but someone has to do it 😉 )
After the meal the Mayor congratulated the club on the 1st team winning the league and the league knock-out cup, and the 2nd team coming runners-up in their league and league knock-out cup. The individual prizes were well received and warmly congratulated and the guest speaker seemed to amuse everyone satisfactorily so the evening was as successful as the club's season had been I think 🙂
It was a much smaller gathering than it's been in previous years but still enough people to make for good company. However there were little signs of the economic times – no little party favours for the ladies, no drink on arrival, smaller than usual wine glasses, and so on, so the pinch is being felt everywhere. When it came to time to buy raffle tickets, Billy happened to have a £1 coin to hand so we bought just the one strip of tickets and to our delight, won a case of 6 bottles of wine (3 red, 3 white) which will do us nicely for Christmas 🙂
We were ready to leave by the time the bus came to pick us up but we were very glad we'd been able to go.

Regime governing property traders
30 April 2019
Regime governing property traders: the Cour de Cassation challenges the possibility to avoid payments of registration fees for operations in the past that partially complied with an undertaking to resell
Legal and regulatory environment:
Under article 1115 of the General Tax Code, the acquisition of a property by a person subject to VAT made with an undertaking to resell it within five years will be subject to registration fees at the rate of 0.715% instead of 5.80% (or 6.40 % in the Ile-de-France region).
If this undertaking to resell is not respected, the purchaser must make payment of the difference in fees plus late-payment interest..
In its statement no. 7 C-2-11 of 18 April 2011 (appearing in the Official Bulletin of Public Finances BOI-ENR-DMTOI-10-50-20140429, no. 110), published on the occasion of the 2010 reform of VAT on real estate and of registration fees, the tax authorities introduced the following interpretation in the case of the resale by lots of a building acquired under the regime set out in article 1115 General Tax Code: "If, at the end of a period of five years, the undertaking to resell is only met for a part of the property to which it relates, the purchaser will be liable for the fees that were waived, as well as the resulting costs and late-payment interest, amounting to the difference between the price at which the purchaser acquired the property and the price at which were sold the parts of the asset for which the undertaking was met. This approach will apply for each parcel or lot where the purchase price was given separately in the deed".
→ If the sum of the sales prices of the lots resold within the 5-year period is greater than the purchase price of the building, no additional fees will be due even if certain lots have not been resold within the 5-year period (provided that the acquisition price of the property was not broken down by lot in the deed of purchase).
However, following the publication of this statement of practice, the tax authorities continued to issue adjustments in the event of a partial failure to meet the undertaking to resell, even where the sale price of the lots sold within the 5-year period was greater than the purchase price of the entire building. In doing so they took the view that this approach was only applicable to transactions subsequent to 11 March 2010, the date on which the above-mentioned 2010 reform of VAT on real estate and of registration fees entered into force.
Court decisions in favour of taxpayers:
In view of the above, appeals were made to challenge this position and various courts ruled in favour of taxpayers, judging that the above-mentioned approach could be cited against the tax authorities, given that it had been published prior to the issuing of the adjustments and thus to the actions for recovery.
As an example, reliefs were obtained for acquisitions made in 2005 where a proposed adjustment was issued in 2013.
Adverse ruling by the Cour de Cassation:
One of the decisions in favour of the taxpayer was that handed down by of the Paris Court of Appeal on 13 September 2016 (2015/07471), which was appealed by the tax authorities before the Cour de cassation, in turn leading to a ruling of 10 April 2019 (ruling no. 376 FS-P+B).
Here, the Cour de cassation questioned the possibility of citing the practice adopted by the tax authorities towards buy-sell operations that occurred prior to publication of their statement in this regard in cases where adjustments were issued subsequent to its publication.
This in fact overrules the decision by the Paris Court of Appeal and holds that: "Where the approach formally admitted by the tax authorities is invoked for the benefit of the taxpayer, this may only be applied according to the terms and content in force at the time of the disputed tax charge, with the result that the statement cannot be applied to tax charges where the taxable event occurred prior to 18 April 2011".
Thus, according to the Cour de cassation, this approach can only be applied to operations where the taxable event, i.e. the purchase of a property subject to an undertaking to resell, occurred on or after 18 April 2011.
This is therefore bad news for taxpayers whose cases are still ongoing, although it may be noted that the question of the consequences of a partial resale of a property for a price higher than the purchase price has not yet been definitively resolved: the Cour de cassation has referred the matter to the Paris Court of Appeal.

Ama Dablam expedition is one of the popular expedition choices for those who love to climb mountains. Nepal is the perfect destination for climbing the peaks as it offers a wide variety and multiple choices for mountaineering lovers. Mount Ama Dablam is a mountain in the Himalayan range of eastern Nepal, located almost due south of Mt. Everest and Mt. Lhotse in the Khumbu region. It is a steep pyramid of ice with vertical walls and sharp, exposed ridges. The main peak is 6,812 meters (22,349 ft), the lower western peak is 6,170 meters (20,243 ft). As you would expect, that allows for some stunning views during the climb as well as on the summit. The mountain stands above the famous Tangboche Monastery which is traditionally visited by climbers in the region. The literal meaning of Ama Dablam is "Mother's Necklace" and the name has been derived by the form the mountain takes. The long ridges extend on each side like the arms of a mother (ama) protecting her child, and the hanging glacier referred to as the Dablam, the traditional double-pendant containing pictures of the gods, worn by Sherpa women. Even though the name has a soft ring to it, Ama Dablam packs a lot of rough for trekkers and mountain climbers alike. Mount Ama Dablam is a beautiful mountain, located almost due south of Mt. Everest and Mt. Lhotse in the Khumbu region. Ama Dablam is also known as the "Matterhorn of the Himalayas" due to its intense features and similarity in terrain with that of the Matterhorn Mountain in Switzerland. Mount Ama Dablam forms a lasting impression on many trekkers in Nepal, as it is perhaps the most stunning mountain along the popular trekking route to Everest Base Camp.
Despite the intensity of the path leading to Ama Dablam, it still stands out as one of the most famous and beautiful peaks in the world. Ama Dablam stands proudly, rising above the Dudh Koshi river valley and stands on the way to the Everest Base camp, Nepal. However, it should be clear to everyone that, even with all the scenic beauty and gorgeous landscapes surrounding Ama Dablam, this expedition is a massive combination of a rough terrain trek as well as a strenuous climb. Therefore Ama Dablam expedition requires skilled rock climbing and ice climbing skills, with sufficient acclimatization in high altitudes and know-how of technical equipment.
Ama Dablam is the third most popular Himalayan peak for permitted expeditions. The most popular route by far is the Southwest Ridge. Climbers normally set up three camps along the ridge while making their ascent to the Ama Dablam peak. Any ice that calves off the glacier typically goes left, away from the camp. Our ascent will be made via the SW ridge route, a technical route with three camps above base camp. The climb is usually completed in less than four weeks. The climbing on the route involves pure rock climbing on exquisite granite followed by mixed snow and rock climbing. The last section to the summit involves ice climbing followed by a long steep snow slope up to the summit.
So, in order to reach the first campsite from the base camp, climbers need to pass through the tough and difficult saddle ridges. Then they should turn north, climbing up through a rough rocky path leading up to Camp 1 of Ama Dablam. From Camp 1, a climber has to cross the rocky bowl and climb the Southwest ridge through the lines connecting the other camps leading to Camp 2 of Ama Dablam. The climbing route from Camp 2 mainly includes a steep narrow path mixed with rocks, ice, and snow. This rugged route leads to a sloppy climb to a snow-covered ground and then passes through steep ice and snow made a tunnel, then along the snowy saddle ridge which finally leads to Camp 3. From Camp 3 to the summit of Ama Dablam, is a steep uphill climb on a path of ice and snow. From the summit of Ama Dablam, you can witness the beauty of the mountains. With charming scenarios of the Mount Everest (8848m), the Island peak, Lhotse (8516m), Mount Makalu(8463m), the Khumbu Himalayas and the rest of the snowcapped surroundings, Ama Dablam summit allows climbers to breathe in a splendid view after a hectic climb.
The Ama Dablam expedition also includes walking through the Namche village on the way leading to the summit. This walk will take you through the Sherpa village where you will receive warm hospitality from the Sherpas, often known as mighty climbers. Local hot beverages are served at tea houses along the way with traditional Nepali cuisine, which is sure to fill your taste buds with some unique Nepali flavors. Although the Sherpa community there leads a simple life and not as prosperous, they provide excellent service with a homely and welcoming attitude. Ancient monasteries are seen decorated with prayer wheels and prayer flags that exhibit the religious inclination of Sherpa people towards Buddhism.
