 Operation Clambake Present: Scientology Court Files
According to the complaint, the Elmira Mission of the Church of Scientology is presently using the "Scientology" tradename and marks without the authorization of the church organization, and is therefore infringing plaintiffs' rights under the Federal Trademark Act of 1946.
Plaintiffs concede that the Elmira Mission was an authorized mission of the Church of Scientology "for many years and until at least 1982", [FN7] at which time the Elmira Mission was granted by Scientology Missions International a written license to use the assorted trademarks owned by the Church.
The only respect in which the Elmira Mission is now allegedly in breach of its license agreement, and the only reason offered by the plaintiffs for their sudden refusal to continue sponsoring that Mission, is the fact that the defendants have not paid their tithes to the plaintiffs since July, 1984.

 HyperWar: London Gazette No. 37838
The early operations were of an experimental nature, the intention being to explore the possibilities of attacks by fighter bombers and medium bombers against this-type of target.
Daylight operations of enemy aircraft overland were almost unheard of and it was appreciated that only dire -necessity would prompt the enemy to expose his aircraft and pilots to the heavy risk they would run in attempting to spy out our preparations.
The result of these operations added to the previous air bombardment and combined with the naval shelling, neutralised wholly or in large part almost all of the shore batteries and the opposition to the landings was very much less than was expected.

Rather, it is contractually obligated to assume the day-to-day operation of the garage, which includes coordinating and supervising staff, accounting for revenues and being responsible for the physical, mechanical and electrical maintenance of the premises.

 348-R-1989 -- Abandonment of the portion of the Kensington Subdivision (CN)
The Province's contention that the operation of the Kensington, Borden and Tormentine Subdivisions should be considered to be economic for the prescribed accounting years because the aggregated yearly revenues exceed the aggregated yearly costs by approximately $405,000 cannot be accepted.
The Province's evidence that the operation of these lines are and would continue to be economic if consideration were given to cost reducing factors such as system efficiencies achieved by CN during the 1980's and adoption of certain operating characteristics of short line railways is seriously questionable and can not be accepted as valid.
If in the first test, the operation of the branch line is determined to be uneconomic and there is no reasonable probability of it becoming economic in the foreseeable future, the Agency, pursuant to section 165 of the NTA, 1987, must order the abandonment of the operation of the line.
