"Stupich's wife and daughter were also charged. But, as part of a complex plea bargain, the charges against them have been stayed. They'll perform 200 hours of community service. That also applies to Joe Denofreo, a former NDP party official."
http://www.camagazine.com/archives/print-edition/1997/camagazine27733.pdf
"Only Mr. Stupich, Ms. Marlow and Mr. Stupich’s daughter, Marjorie Boggis, had detailed knowledge of NCHS financial
affairs,” concludes the Parks Report.
Community service is at the lower end of the scale for criminal offence sanctions, but it does reflect an admission of misconduct.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.180.149.46 (talk) 20:55, 22 February 2014 (UTC)

Here's what we do know:
* Barlow did not invent the achromatic lens (Dollond didn't either, but he held a patent for it at the time)
* Any "achromatic lens" is not the same as what is understood today as a Barlow lens. Specifically: The main use for achromatic telescope lenses is in the objective, which is positive/converging, while a Barlow lens or teleconverter is an negative/diverging lens which is placed additionally between the objective and the focal plane.

message: FROM: 
"....The most flourishing period of the English fishery in the Spitzbergen seas was from 1752 to 1820. Bounties of 40s. per ton were granted by .tIct of Parliament ; and in 1778 as many as 255 sail of whalers were employed. In order to encourage discovery n000(sic)(£?) were offered in 1776 to the first ship that should sail beyond the 89th parallel (16 Geo. III. c. 6). Among the numerous daring and able whaling captains, Captain Scoresby takes the first rank, alike as a successful fisher and a scientific observer. His admirable Account qf the A retie Regions is still a text book for all students of the subject...."
"...The wars following the French Revolution put an end to voyages of discovery till, after the peace of 1815, north polar research found a powerful and indefatigable advocate in Sir John BARROW (q.v.). Through his influence a measure for promoting polar discovery became law in 1818 (58 Geo. III. c. 20), by which a reward of X20,000(sic)(£?) was offered for making the north-west passage, and of X5000(sic)(£?) for reaching 89° N., while the commissioners of longitude were empowered to award proportionate sums to those who might achieve certain portions of such discoveries...." 
Were these laws repealed by the time Sir Herbert reached 89N? Did anyone apply or receive these or any subsequent statuary Polar rewards?

message: The District is arguing that there is a self-defense exception to the trigger lock requirement.  Obviously, this will be reviewed and decided on finally by the Supreme Court.  To use the legal conclusion that there is no self-defense exception is not warranted in this article.  The D.C. Circuit's opinion on that is not the final word (yet), so we should not treat it as such.  This paragraph is about what the District (Dellinger) will be arguing, not what the D.C. Circuit held to be true.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Harvardgirl33 (talk • contribs) 02:43, 12 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: It is not just a trigger lock requirement - it is a requirement that all firearms be kept "unloaded, disassembled, or bound by a trigger lock", i.e. a ban on functional firearms like the opinion says.  D.C. has had this law on the books for 25 years and has not clarified that there exists any self-defense exception, either implicitly or explicitly.  It doesn't get to whitewash this situation now.  The Circuit Court found that this is a ban on the use of functional firearms for self-defense which is the definitive statement on the issue as of today.  Attorneys for the respondent argue the same way.  It is acceptable to me to state that DC is arguing this way, provided that we provide the full context including the fact that its argument was rejected. kevinp2 (talk) 13:41, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

It's not suitable for an encyclopedia article on the man himself - rather, it should be in the page on the film itself. If he had been a consultant for the film, or was featured in the film, it would be relevant. As it is, he wasn't.
