ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y. — Nuclear waste issues will be addressed by two speakers Thursday evening (Jan. 31) in a program presented by the St. Bonaventure University Center for Nonviolence. The talks will take place at 7:30 p.m. in the auditorium of the Walsh Science Center on campus.
In a presentation titled "The Nuclear Dilemma: No Good Place to Put the Waste," Dr. Ray Vaughan, an environmental scientist with the New York State Attorney General's Office, will address the question of what to do with the nation's nuclear waste.
Vaughan will discuss the accumulation of radioactive waste at sites across the country, including nearby West Valley, where the U.S. Department of Energy has for decades been overseeing the cleanup of a defunct radioactive waste reprocessing center.
Also presenting at the session will be Barbara Dyskant of Olean. Her talk, "Radioactive Forks, Watches, Toys and Zippers?" will address a controversial Department of Energy plan to release and mix radioactive metal into recycling and landfill operations.
Dyskant said the proposal calls for the release of some 14,000 metric tons of metal from radioactively contaminated weapons sites into the recycling stream; metals that could end up in consumer and industrial products such as silverware, pants zippers, watches and furniture frames.
Dyskant, who maintains that radiation exposure at all levels presents a risk, and whose daughter is a leukemia survivor, has joined a petition drive to scuttle the plan.
Thursday's talk is free and open to the public.

Suns' Earl Watson: 'We have to get toughness'
Doug Haller
azcentral sports
The Suns are 57 days into this – a stretch of 28 games – but coach Earl Watson spent Tuesday's practice reminding them of what they need moving forward, a pillar of success for a young, developing team.
"We have to get toughness," Watson said.
Playing hard? That's not an issue. But for the Suns (8-20) to win consistently, they'll have to adopt a floor-burn type mindset that Watson hasn't seen as often as he would like. Tuesday might have served as a refresher course of sorts. Guard Brandon Knight said it was probably the team's toughest practice since training camp.
"It's just an identity,'' Knight said. "Making sure we come into a game and imposing our will on other teams. That's the biggest thing. Playing the way we want to play. That takes toughness, that takes grit."
NBA POWER RANKINGS:Mixed reviews for Suns
This is an important time for the Suns. Losers of three in a row, they host red-hot Houston on Wednesday. Following Friday's home game against Philadelphia, they visit Houston and San Antonio, host Toronto, then travel to Utah and the Los Angeles Clippers.
In Monday's 115-108 loss at Minnesota, the Suns positioned themselves to win, pulling within two points five times in the fourth quarter. With seven minutes to go, Knight's short floater brought Phoenix to within 99-97. The Suns then lost focus defensively, allowing Andrew Wiggins to get loose, first on a drive coming off a ball screen and then in transition.
Three minutes later, the Suns – trailing 105-103 – had a chance to take the lead but Knight missed an open 3-pointer. On the other end, the Suns failed to come up with a defensive rebound, allowing Karl-Anthony Towns to convert a 3-point play that gave Minnesota a cushion.
"Toughness is our X factor,'' Watson said. "It's 50-50 balls. Mental toughness. Physical toughness. Creating a mind state with young players, setting the tone early in their careers so it becomes a part of who they are every day. It's continuous. It's nothing you can do in one practice. You do it every day over time. It's like pounding the rock. Eventually, the rock will break."
It starts with attitude.
"A lot of it is (attitude), and a lot of it is just doing it,'' Knight said. "I can't really explain how to do that, it's just about going out there and doing it. Once you realize that's what it takes to win in this league, then it's just making it happen."
RECAP: Phoenix Suns fall to Minnesota Timberwolves for 3rd straight loss
Warren back
T.J. Warren is back after missing 13 games because of a minor head injury. The 6-foot-8 forward scored two points in 14 minutes at Oklahoma City and was held scoreless, missing all five shots, in 10 minutes at Minnesota.
"He has to find his rhythm,'' Watson said. "... At OKC, he couldn't find his rhythm to get shots up. Against Minnesota, he took shots that he normally makes (but) he missed. (In Tuesday's practice), he made those shots."
Warren started at a high level, averaging 20 points over the season's first 11 games. When healthy, he gives the Suns size and length on the wing, which is an NBA necessity. Moving forward, Watson said how much Warren plays is up to Warren.
"How he plays is how he goes,'' Watson said. "There's no set minutes. His effectiveness on both ends of the court will determine his playing time."
BOX SCORE: Timberwolves 115, Suns 108
More time for Bender?
On Tuesday's weekly radio appearance, Watson discussed the balance of playing his veterans while giving his younger players time to develop. He specifically mentioned the need to get more minutes for Dragan Bender, the fourth overall pick in last June's draft.
"Dragan Bender, to me, is key for us,'' Watson said on the Doug & Wolf show. "We have to find time for him to take steps forward."
A 7-1 forward, Bender has averaged 11.4 minutes in 22 games. He did not play in Monday's loss at Minnesota.
"Love Bender,'' Watson said after Tuesday's practice. "We have to find a way to get him in the game."

Rockets update: Entering Tuesday's game at San Antonio, the Rockets (21-7) were the NBA's hottest team, winners of 10 in a row. Running the point, James Harden is playing on an MVP level, averaging 27.7 points, 8.0 rebounds and a league-best 11.8 assists. An obstacle: Starting center Clint Capela (11.8 ppg, 8.0 rpg) suffered a leg injury and could miss several weeks. Houston shoots 38.3 from 3-point range, which ranks fourth in the league.

The LOMO Kompact Automat (LC-A) was produced by LOMO PLC in St. Petersburg, Russia from 1984 until 2005. This compact 35mm film viewfinder camera was based on the Cosina CX-2, but lacks the self-timer and is built with cheaper components, including the fairly soft Minitar lens.
It was the LOMO LC-A that sparked the Lomographic Society (LSI).
After production ended, LSI contracted with Phenix Optical Company in China to create an updated version called the LC-A+.

Is the Ghost Clear? Featuring author Phil Horey and the Loch Ness Monster
By Sassy Brit, Author Assistant April 25, 2019
2 Comments on Is the Ghost Clear? Featuring author Phil Horey and the Loch Ness Monster
A photographic journal exploring the more remote haunts, myths, legends and fabulous beasts of the British isles.
'I saw the dark high head very distinctly; there can be no denial, by even the most rabid scoffer, that in Loch Ness there is something abnormal.'
Mr J.C. Mackay, excerpt from More than a Legend by Constance Whyte.
In 1899, Aleister Crowley, the 'wickedest man in the world' or 'the great beast' as he was also known, bought Boleskin House by the shores of Loch Ness. Reputedly named after Baal, the bloody God of the Babylonians, Boleskin offered all the requirements of seclusion, space, place and physical arrangement for Crowley to perform his magic rituals. One such ceremony (in which he hoped to attain communication with his guardian angel), required an intensive six-month daily dedication to accomplish. Part of the rite for the initiate was to be able to invoke the 'Lords of Darkness' and compel them to serve the 'Light'. Halfway through this ritual, Crowley was called away to give aid to his 'Master' in the cult of the 'Golden Dawn'. In abandoning the ritual without banishing those forces he had already summoned (and so clearing the air, as it were), he left the door open to this world for certain demonic forces to enter. Misfortune and unease have dwelt in Boleskin ever since, and it is perhaps no surprise that it was reputedly a haunted house. On 23rd December 2016, the house was gutted by fire; the cause was never found.
Some believe that the influence of these dark forces has spread into the countryside around, and are responsible for the manifestations of the 'beast' or 'serpent' of Loch Ness. The 'monster', as it is now called, made itself widely known shortly after Crowley's final departure from Boleskin House in 1913. The construction of a road along the north shore in 1933 brought in a steady stream of sightings, as the loch was now visible along its entire length. In many reports of the Loch Ness monster, a feeling of unease and fear often accompanies the beholder: a feeling of something unnatural, something out of place. However, legends of beasts, kelpies or water horses, said to inhabit many Scottish lochs, stretch way back in time, long before Crowley and his misguided rituals.
In the 7th century, St Adamnan wrote in his biography of St Columba 'of the driving away of a certain water monster by virtue of prayer by the holy Man.' His narrative goes on to tell of how, upon seeing the monster (who had already killed a man that same day) rushing upon a swimmer in the River Ness, the great man invoked the word of God and commanded: 'Think not to go further nor touch thou that man; quick, go back!' The beast was so stricken with terror at these words that it fled 'as if drawn back by cords'.
Thus the Loch Ness monster entered into history. To the highlander of old, it and the other monsters or kelpies of so many Scottish lochs were no harder to comprehend than a man landing on the moon to today's 'enlightened' souls. However, the monster was looked upon as an omen of misfortune; the highlander would not interpret it as an ordinary member of the animal kingdom. Even at the turn of the last century, children playing by the lochside would always have an adult in attendance to guard against the water horse. In George Herbert Morrison's book, St Columba, His Life and Times, he wrote of the early inhabitants of these mountains:
'In every spring, in every well, there was a spirit; in every loch there lived some dreaded thing. When the echoes of thunder rolled through the mountain corries, or when the wild storm beat the forest, voices from the great mystery were speaking.'
An old map from 1712 in the Bodleian Library in Oxford has the following note in reference to Loch Lomond: 'Waves without wind, fish without fins, and a floating island.'
(To be cont.)

run time 3:36
sung by Mike Doughty; John Flansburgh emcees
Trivia/Info
From TMBG Unlimited, "'Mr. Xcitement' with Mike Doughty and the Elegant Too. A good time was had by all on this high energy track. Working with former Mono Puff DJ Phil Hernandez and Skeleton Key guitarist Chris Maxwell, now known collectively as the Elegant Too, TMBG and Doughty cooked up this manic track. I get name checked in the rap - a real first for me."
Flansburgh: "Originally [this was going to be an instrumental]. This track was put together from manipulations of various horn samples from Velcro Horns Dan Levine and Jim O'Connor. The beats were then super-sized with wild sonic manipulations and real live scratching by beatmeisters The Elegant Too, but when Mike Doughty heard it, he insisted on taking the track home where he cooked up the crazy rhymes, which we are still trying to decode."[1]
The Spanish line "Café con pan," means "Coffee with bread."
Appears in the Malcolm In The Middle episode "Dinner Out."
The line "Like Flansy in a soda can..." is referenced in the music video for "E Eats Everything."
R&B/soul legend Jackie Wilson was known by his nickname "Mr. Excitement", thanks to his riveting live performances.

FACT CHECK: SAND MOUNTAIN REPORTER CLAIMS ALABAMA NEVER LEFT THE UNION
CLAIM:
" … As if it (Alabama) left the Union."
INVESTIGATOR:
VERDICT REVIEW:
INACCURATE and MISLEADING. The writer's opinion expressed does not match up with established facts. The State of Alabama resumed its powers on January 11,1861 from its agent, the general government. After the War, the State of Alabama was under military occupation by the armed forces of the United States. As a punishment by the Republication administration, Alabama's provisional government was forced to renounce it's Ordinance of Secession on September 25, 1865. The rescinding of the Ordinance was a necessary legal requirement imposed by the Union government upon seceded states to clear questionable legal challenges that were sure to arise over the legality of the secession. It clouded and impeded the scope of authority of the Constitution over states and was necessary to be revoked to ensure the authority of the US Constitution was not in question. Ultimately, by not being able to charge and convict President Jefferson Davis with treason in a civil or military court out of fear secession would have been declared legal and overturn the verdict of the War, the question of the issue was handed to the Supreme Court. On April 12, 1869 the Supreme Court of the United States decided on Texas v White. The Court held that Texas ( and the rest of the Confederacy) never left the Union during the Civil War, because a state cannot unilaterally secede from the United States. The tally of the judges was 5 to 3 in support of the decision. From the State's agent, the general government's point of view, secession is illegal but not from the State's point of view under the powers of the 10th Amendment which has never been declared unconstitutional.

ARTHUR: DANIEL TAYLOR, Sand Mountain Reporter
INVESTIGATOR FINDINGS:
On January 11, 1861, the Alabama Secession Convention passes an Ordinance of Secession, declaring Alabama a "Sovereign and Independent State." By a vote of 61-39, Alabama becomes the fourth state to secede from the Union
SOURCE: ORDINANCE OF SECESSION, Alabama Department of Archives and History
During May and June 1865, Alabama had no legally constituted government; Governor Thomas Hill Watts and other prominent leaders had been arrested by the United States military. On June 21st, President Johnson issued a proclamation, establishing a provisional government. In September a convention adopted a new constitution for Alabama, abolishing slavery, repealing the Ordinance of Secession, and repudiating the State's war debt. By declaring the act of secession in a legislative context "null and void", the radicals recognized the act of secession as a legitimate power enacted by a sovereign nation.

NOTE: Once notified, The Sand Mountain Reporter corrected the factual error it made with the following note:
"Note: This article originally included a sentence with a typographical error reading, "The Alabama Secession Convention adopted the flag in 1861 as if it left the Union." The word "if" has been removed for clarification."
The edited Sentence is as follows:
"The Alabama Secession Convention adopted the flag in 1861 as it left the Union."

Former Saints Player Sues Team Alleging Medical Malpractice
Delvin Breaux, a former cornerback for the New Orleans Saints, has filed a lawsuit against team doctors alleging medical negligence. The team doctors charged with Breaux's care have since been fired and replaced.
The doctors diagnosed Breaux with a leg contusion, but as it turned out, his fibula was actually broken. Breaux's career was cut short after doctors misdiagnosed Breaux's injury.
Problems for Breaux
The lawsuit names two doctors and the company they worked for. The company stands behind the quality of care rendered to Breaux and an independent medical panel recently ruled that the doctors in Breaux's case rendered an appropriate standard of care. Nonetheless, Breaux's lawsuit will be allowed to move forward.
The doctors were fired immediately after the team discovered that Breaux's "leg bruise" was actually a broken bone. The injury was sustained during training camp. The doctors ordered an MRI and an X-ray later determining that it was a bone bruise. The cornerback continued training but became worried that his leg continued to hurt.
In August, Breaux was still in considerable pain, so he sought the advice of another doctor. These doctors determined that Breaux had a fracture to his fibula. Eventually, Breaux had surgery performed on his leg and the Saints placed him on injured reserve.
Stress Fractures and Diagnosis
Stress fractures, like the one that Breaux suffered, can be difficult for doctors to diagnose, and just because Breaux suffered a poor medical outcome, doesn't mean that it rises to the standard of medical malpractice.
In Louisiana, noneconomic damages are capped at $500,000, but there is no cap on damages related to future medical expenses. Given that Breaux sacrificed a promising career with the Saints having led the team in interceptions, Breaux will get far less than he lost even if his case is allowed before a jury.
In 2018, Breaux returned to the Canadian Football League, where his career had begun. He was paid $200,000 plus incentives which is considerably less than he made in the NFL. Breaux is now listed on the Hamilton Tiger-Cats roster although the CFL will be suspending this year's season due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The owner of the Saints, who is also the owner of the New Orleans Pelicans, retained one of the doctors named in the lawsuit after firing him from the Saints to provide medical services to the Pelicans.
Whether or not Breaux's lawsuit against the Saints' team doctors will be successful depends heavily on whether or not a jury finds that a reasonable doctor would have recognized the fracture. It will be a hard case to win.

Lexington-Fayette Metro Map
In one of the colony's first political actions, Edward Wingfield was elected president; this, however, proved to be the first of many poor choices made by these settlers. Lexington-Fayette Metro Map Wingfield was not a practical man and could not lead effectively. When Wingfield later returned to England, the settlers elected John Ratcliffe as leader, again a poor choice.
Ratcliffe was more interested in developing his own empire than in developing the settlement. The men did begin work on a fort approximately an acre in size. A palisade encircled the triangular fort, with its longest side facing the river. At each point of the triangle stood a small cannon. The men also built a handful of thatched houses and a small church within the fort's boundary; these buildings later proved to offer little protection against the harsh winters and rainy summers.
The settlers also began clearing land for planting English wheat. They did not, however, dig wells but drank water straight from the dirty river another problem that came back to haunt the newly established community. Meanwhile, Captain Newport and John Smith led an expedition upriver. Passing several Algonquin villages, they met Chief Powhatan, the infamous father of young Pocahontas who later befriended John Smith and the men of Jamestown. Careful not to offend the chief or his tribe, Newport and Smith offered small gifts, including looking glasses, beads, and little bells. Smith, who became part of the governing council, was one of the few people to recognize the importance of good relations with the native peoples. He learned the local dialects and also mapped and explored the area around the Chesapeake Bay, as well as the Potomac and the Rappahannock Rivers.

Economists have been warning for months that if the $85 billion in indiscriminate budget cuts known as the sequester take effect, the consequences for the economy could be dire. But for small businesses, the prospects may be even worse.
According to Stephen Fuller, a professor at George Mason University's School of Public Policy, the budget cuts required by sequestration amount to $35 billion in payroll costs and about $50 billion in procurement expenses. All told, Mr. Fuller said, these cuts would result in 1.4 million lost private-sector jobs. Those lost jobs include positions at federal contractors, as well as at businesses that serve those contractors and, even less directly, at the businesses that depend on spending by government and contractor employees.
Small businesses, Mr. Fuller said, would lose just over half of those jobs.
"So many of these small businesses don't realize how dependent they are to the federal government because they're not the contractors — they are suppliers and vendors to the contractors," said Mr. Fuller, who testified (pdf) at a House Small Business Committee hearing last September on the effect of sequester. "They're the ones who water the plants and secure the buildings." Small businesses will suffer from the reduced federal and private sector payroll because of the important role they play in the consumer economy, as retailers and restaurants. "However you allocate the consumer budget across the economy, there's a large number of small businesses," Mr. Fuller said.
Officials in the Obama administration, asked to comment on how small businesses could be affected by cuts to federal procurement, declined to be specific. "Should sequestration occur, small businesses, like other business, will be impacted as agencies are forced to allow certain contracts to lapse and de-scope, or terminate other contracts that would be no longer affordable," said an Obama administration spokesman who asked that his name not be published. The spokesman would not say whether government agencies would attempt to stretch out payments to vendors in order to make the money last longer. For example, in September 2011, the administration announced its so-called QuickPay program, which attempted to cut the government's payment time to small companies from 30 days to 15 days. The spokesman did not say whether the administration would continue this initiative.
However, Mr. Fuller said agencies would not likely cancel existing contracts, since the money for these has already been appropriated. Rather, he said, agencies would probably not extend some of those contracts or issue new ones. Because of the way the federal government spends money — purchasing is typically concentrated in the last three months of the fiscal year, which ends in October — the impact of the sequester would most likely be felt beginning in July.
The sequester would also scale back programs at the S.B.A. According to the administration, loan guarantees would be reduced by $902 million, from $22 billion to just over $21 billion. And the agency told (pdf) the Senate Appropriations Committee that cuts to its counseling programs would force the agency's partners to turn away at least 33,000 business owners seeking assistance.
Not everybody was so pessimistic. Holly Wade, a senior policy analyst at the National Federation of Independent Business, said it was impossible to know whether the sequester, should it take effect, would harm the economy. "If the economy contracts overall, that will affect small businesses," she allowed. But she downplayed the prospect of specific threats to small businesses. "Few small businesses have contracts with the federal government, and few small businesses get loans from the S.B.A.," she said.
The N.F.I.B., she added, has not taken a position on whether the sequester should go into effect.
*However, as The Agenda has noted before, both of these figures — the total contract dollars awarded to small businesses and the total contract dollars for which small businesses are eligible — are slippery. The total awarded to small companies is almost certainly overstated and the total available to them is likely understated.

Imran Ismail Is Winning Many Hearts After He Paid His Fine For Over Speeding On M-2 Motorway!
Given the situation of politics, last year it was nothing but chaos! Imran Khan was adamant to topple the "legacy" of Nawaz Sharif. It is sheer bad luck for the Sharifs that they have never succeeded in completing any of the tenures till this date. So, it happened again! Though they somehow managed to complete the tenure this time, Nawaz Sharif was asked to step down from the position of PM.
Later, the nation was completely bewildered to choose the next Government which would rule them for the next 5 years. Election '18 were conducted quite smooth, it was difficult to predict that who would win, but PTI came out victorious. What gave people hope was Imran Khan's speech because it wasn't a typical speech but more like a pep talk.
Even the ones who were against him, loved his speech. People said that he sure is a good orator but will he be a good leader too?
He introduced a 100 days plan and we were reminded of the Bollywood movie "Nayak" in which a young guy is challenged by the current PM to become one for 3 days and change the things if he can. He's been quite successful in his plans but still, there are many miles to walk, a long way to go!
Well, politics is almost similar to a company, like to run a successful business you'd have to build a good team. Imran Khan was being wise in that, he took ample time to build a team. Even on that, there were tons of issues, but now as things are taking shapes which were once only water and mud. People believe that Pakistan has some good future, which is now placed in the hands of Imran Khan.
Speaking of Imran Ismail, he was seen being the "paka sacha Pakistani" and when he was fined for over speeding at motorway; he paid for it.
He paid 700 hundred rupees and did not get away with like any other politicians that use their "VIP" card, but rather, Imran Ismail respected the rules and paid for what he did wrong.
In this whole scenario, what was shocking to people was how come he had a photo while doing this?
Wahhh! A biscuit to this guy for his comment!
Well, this sure is a surprise that how come all of a sudden, when you are being charged for over speeding, your photo is being taken for your good deed. Too much nae hogaya?
Imran Ismail sahb, shashkay toh bohat ala hain apke! Also, in retrospect, how many of you remember the awkward time of jalsa when he sang "Tabdeeli ae ray" and Imran Khan was getting super awkward? LOL! But he's cute, isn't he?
What do you guys think about it? Let us know in the comments below. Cheers!

On June 25, I gathered with my co-workers to watch President Obama unveil his vision for addressing climate change. It was encouraging to hear the president frame the issue in terms of a "moral imperative," and the fact that he's ready to take on power plant emissions — the single largest source of greenhouse gases in the U.S. — shows that he's serious.
But no energy plan can be built on a moral foundation without ensuring that areas like Appalachia, heavily impacted by the country's continued over-reliance on fossil fuels, don't get left behind. The devastating practice of mountaintop removal coal mining has no place in a 21st Century energy plan.
President Obama must stop industry from pushing the costs of doing business off on communities and our environment. More than 20 health studies have shown that residents of Appalachian coal counties, particularly those living near mountaintop removal sites, suffer higher cancer rates, more birth defects, and have shorter life spans than other citizens.
The administration needs to address these immediate issues while also doing more to invest in energy efficiency and renewable sources — particularly in Appalachia. Such investments will go far to create jobs, economic security and environmental health for our region.
I applaud the president's determination to make the issue of climate change a top priority on the national agenda. Appalachian Voices stands ready to work with his administration to achieve a new energy future, for Appalachia and America.

WOCCU leads way for comments on new international financial Accords from BIS

BASEL Switzerland – Several U.S. credit unions and international credit union organizations, plus the World Council of Credit Unions (WOCCU) have sent their comments to the Bank of International Settlement (BIS) of the new steps in the Basel Capital Accord. The Accord was originally supposed to be published by the end of this year for 2004 implementation. At press time, over 250 comments had been received from financial institutions around the world. BIS has just announced a longer schedule. "The Committee will release a complete and fully specified proposal for an additional round of consultation in early 2002 and will finalize the new Accord during 2002. Accordingly, the Basel Committee envisions an implementation date of 2005 for the New Accord." CUNA President/CEO Dan Mica stated in his letter to BIS that "CUNA applauds the improvements that are contained in the current Basel proposal. The three pillars of the framework: Minimum Capital Requirements, Supervisory Review Process, and Market Discipline, functionally expand the scope of the Accord." U.S. credit unions are not currently operating under the old Accord of 1988 because of their Prompt Corrective Action (PCA) capital requirements and NCUA supervision. Mica did not rule out the possibility that if changes occur in the future, CUNA might consider recommending that the Accords replace PCA. Mica will recommend that CUNA review the final version of the New Accord. However, at the current time he does not feel that U.S. credit unions should be subject to the New Accord. Although the United States is not subject to either the 1988 or the New Accord, credit unions in other countries may be. The New Accord is more credit union friendly than the old 1988 Accord, WOCCU CEO Arthur Arnold stated in his cover letter, but he added that they still have a way to go to "ensure that small co-operatively owned financial institutions can operate within a framework that matches their risk profiles." Arnold's comments are part of a 20-page document sent to Basel late last month. Arnold also said that he felt that credit unions or co-operatives were not clearly defined and in place of the term "bank," "depository financial institution" be substituted. Arnold gave WOCCU's support to the use of external credit assessments pointing out that less than 0.1% of the world's 38,000 credit unions have such a system in place. He did express concern over the possible "negative impact this may have on liquidity markets." Although the Credit Union Service Corporation of Australia (CUSCAL) also sent comments, Arnold used CUSCAL as an example saying under the proposal Australian Credit Unions would have to be capitalised at 50% up from the current 20%. As a result of this, Arnold encouraged BIS to "refine the framework for assigning risk weights to depository financial institutions to properly address the needs of the small financial institutions. -

Penn 535GS: Can it be bought in Australia?
For longer than I can remember I've owned a Shimano Speedmaster Triton III. It's been a fishing reel from hell. Even with heavy motor engine oil in the bearings it's a bit of a mongrel to cast. And, from what I've discovered perusing the Web, many others have had a similar experience.
So it's time to find a replacement reel for high speed spinning for pelagics from the rocks and heavy beach fishing -- the Speedmaster will be retired to general boat duties.
On a value-for-money, no-frills basis, it seems hard to go past a Penn 535GS: 6 to 1 gear ratio, centrifugal cast control, good drag, rugged construction, nice size, assured supply of spare parts. Has anyone had experience with this reel?
There seems to be many happy, satisfied users overseas, in the UK and US, where it's nicely priced.
But I can't find the reel for sale locally. Can it be bought in Australia?
Or is it necessary to buy it from an overseas supplier (such as Veals) and have it sent to Australia?
I have seen a couple of 525 Mags in retail stores in Brissy but never a 535GS. If you have to go the UK route you would probably be better to get a 535 Mag rather than a straight GS. I have 3 x 525 Mags - one slidey and 2 knobbies and they are great reels. The only criticism I have is that they are a pain to strip down due to the fact that the side plate screws are conventional ones rather than the thumbscrew type as on the Ambassadeurs. Once inside you need a pair of round nose pliers (round round nose pliers not flattend round nose pliers) to remove a brass piece in order to get at the left hand bearing. Superb drags though.
Thanks for your advice -- very much valued, as usual.
I'm still weighing-up whether to buy yet another reel: I've already got drawers full. Probably makes more sense to make better use of what I already have.
To your knowledge, are the Shimano Triton Speedmasters difficult to cast? I noticed after I'd applied heavy 40-70 grade motor oil to the bearings the reel was much more benign than when the bearings were dry. I've read that if you remove bearings and heat them, they take-up the oil better. How do you oil the bearings of your reels?
As Speedmasters don't have centrifugal or magnetic cast control, oil in the bearings and thumb pressure applied to the side of the spool are all you have to keep the cast under control. Might be that I've just become spoilt by the centrifugal cast control of my ABUs, and I've lost my "educated thumb".
So for heavy beach fishing, with 10 kg line at night, the ABU 7000 might be the best reel for the job. My 7000 has a level wind, and I've found the reel OK for beach fishing, although I've always worried about sand entering the level wind mechanism and causing wear, and possibly even malfunction .
In a previous post you mentioned that you'd removed the level wind from your 7000 (and replaced it with a support bar?) using an after-market kit? What are the advantages of doing this. Where do you buy the conversion kits, and how much do they cost?
I have a Speedmaster II and a Penn Jigmaster which I modified to magnetic control and the modification worked well enough.
I did an article on the subject - way back - and you will have to make do with a cut and paste witout the pix.
Residing in the corner of my reel cupboard was a Penn Jigmaster 500 (see pic #1) which was a prime candidate for magnetic conversion. This reel, circa 1980, was impossible to tune without very high viscosity oil in the bushings and the line spooled to nowhere near it's capacity. Even then an educated thumb was required at times. Basically a strong, large capacity reel with bushings - not ball races - one screw take apart - 4:1 ratio and able to accept the superb Penn HT 100 drag washers.
To do the conversion I needed four neodymium permanent rare earth magnets (6x2mm) and I managed to acquire these from a firm in Brisbane which specialises in magnets - Magnetics Australia. The cost of these are 41 cents each and the half dozen I got cost $2.46 plus $2 post and packaging. As this was the first time I had attempted such a conversion other items were improvised, as I went along, from gear I have in my workshop.
The very first thing which has to be done is to find how much space there is between the interior surface of the left hand side plate and the side of the spool. The spool is removed and a wad of Blue tack, plastercine, or kneadable art eraser is placed on the interior of the side plate (see pic #3), the spool replaced and the reel assembled.
The sequence is reversed and the wad of malleable material, which has now been compressed to the exact interior space, is removed and measured. In this instance it was 6 mm (see pic # 4). As I required the magnets to be about 1 mm, or slightly less from the side of the spool and the magnets were 2 mm thick - I required means of attaching them to the interior of the side plate which would result in an additional 3 mm packing. Search containers in the workshop!
What I found were small plastic screw covers for electrical power points which had an internal diameter of 2 mm and were 3 mm in depth. A further search found small steel nuts which would fit, tightly, inside the recess of the screw covers and would anchor the magnets in position. This was done and by using a punch I managed to insert the nuts to the bottom of the screw covers leaving a recess to stop the magnets from moving laterally - similar in principal to Abu's magnet holder.
With the magnet in place I measured the overall height of the holder and magnet and it measured 5.5 mm - a little too high. A file removed 0.4 mm from the base of the plastic screw cover. I could have removed metal from the nuts but as the screw covers base was slightly convex it was best to remove material from this so that the base was flat.
Right - we now have four plastic holders with metal nuts holding the magnets - all are 5.1 mm in height. Remove the magnets and glue the plastic holders in position inside the left hand side plate (see pic #6).
To achieve the strongest magnetic pull the magnets need to be placed in their holders NSNS and the polarity of the magnets need to be ascertained.
A magnet, on edge, inserted in a small piece of polystyrene and suspended in water will align itself north/south (see pic #7) and a mark is put on the north side of the magnet. Place the magnets, in their holders - NSNS, replace the spool and side plate, make sure that the spool has slight lateral play and the bushings are lubricated with your preferred oil, strap the reel to a rod and test drive it over grass.
NSNS proved to be too much magnetic force and retarded distance. Change the magnets NNNN (or SSSS). Too little force and the thumb had to be used to control over runs. This reel works for me with the magnets aligned NNSN. Good distance (well, 100 metres anyway) and no thumb feathering. In other words; no hands casting. Should I need additional braking power all I have to do is take the spool out and turn the first magnet in the line to South.
On the cast the bushings make a noise like an over revving helicopter and it's got me to wondering if the bushings could be replaced with ABEC bearings. It just happens that the items used to hold the magnets were at hand and are not necessarily the items you have to use. I could have glued metal washers or nuts directly on to the inside of the plate and as long as they brought the surface of the magnets to within 1 mm of the spool the system would work."
The main reason for removing the level wind is that the centre post restricts access and the thumb cannot get a firm grip when power casting. A well oiled level wind (Singer sewing machine oil) only knocks off about 5 metres so that is not really an issue. The larger 7000 reel is big enough that the thumb can get a grip even wth the level wind in situ and unless, like me, you prefer to guide the line back on the spool yourself there is little to be gained in removing the level wind on a 7000.
Rod Bolton, who is a regular contributor to this board, makes conversion bars for all Abu Ambassadeurs a well as making a fine mag conversion kit for palming Ambassadeurs. The way to go with 5000 and 6000size reels is to purchase a CT cage and then you can change fro CT to CS, and vice versa, at will.
Heating bearings to add new oil used to be standard practice but now-a-days bearings are cleaned with Zippo lighter fuel - left to dry out - placed on a paper towel and new oil added.
Thanks for your comments on oiling bearings. Although not sure I've the skill or inclination to "mag" my Speedmaster.
But thanks for the tip about Zippo lighter fuel for cleaning bearings without the need to apply heat. I reckon I'll just keep the heavy motor oil up to them -- and try to "re-educate" my recalcitrant thumb.
Funny, didn't need cast controls on my overheads several decades ago, and managed quite well; probably mostly a matter of not letting the attention wander.
Thanks also for your advice about the ABU 7000. I've never felt the level wind a problem when beach fishing, other than for the possibility of sand entering the mechanism, of course. Following your comments, now I know why.
I've a 6500C CT Sports Rocket for beach work with 15 lb line, so I've probably all I need for heavier bait fishing the beach.
Have you been fishing much this year? Managed a nice bag of tailer a week or so ago (and returned many others), but they were only choppers. Bigger fish usually turn up in April and May. Hopefully the weather will be settled over the next couple of months -- there's plenty of fish around now.
I think I'll stay with the Speedmaster. I've the smaller III model, so if other fishos can cast the larger IV models without drama, I reckon I should be able to manage OK. Particularly if I keep the bearings well oiled with 40-70m grade motor oil.
I don't use my Speedmaster enough to inflict much wear and tear. But I found the Shimano service guys excellent when I spoke to them by phone about my reel, so keeping the reel running shouldn't ever be a problem in any event.
Hi John. Your comment about the Penn Jigmaster bearing sounding like a runaway helicopter brought back some memories.
One of my favorite reels, the old Pflueger Sea King, was showing plenty of back bearing wear and making the identical noise you describe.
I made up a 5mm. od bush which I pressed on the end of the spindle and bored / reamed the bearing to suit. Now a much better bearing, nice quiet running and no loss of casting distance.
Things have gone quiet here abouts. May liven up once the tailor start to run!
Whilst I still have many of the reels I used in the 60's and 70's they rarely get used these days mainly because of their slow gear ratio. All of my modern reels have ratios between 5 and 6 :1 and although they lack the torque of the slow ratio reels they retrieve terminal tackle for re-baiting faster and are better at keeping in touch with a hooked fish which is running towards the shore. New, faster, main gears and pinions are available for the older Abu Ambassadeurs and the odd Daiwa Millionare but not for the majority of good, solid, older workhorses. You can replace bushings with ball bearings and even magnatise (assuming that the spool is aluminium) old reels but the fact remains that, by today's standards, they will be painfully slow.


One of the most common factors that people would often like to change about their home is the desire for more space. Whether you require additional storage, office space, or extra bedrooms, the addition of an extra room can not only transform your home and make it more functional to your requirements, but will also add a substantial amount to its resale value. Happily help is on hand from the loft conversion Beckenham specialists, Berry Construction.
Although an addition to an existing home is an appealing alternative to buying a bigger house, planning permission and space restrictions can make things difficult. However, a loft conversion can make the most of a home's existing space, often with less difficulty than an extension. If you are considering a loft conversion, Beckenham is a prime spot in which to take advantage of this building opportunity.
Berry Construction provides the finest loft conversion Beckenham has to offer and can transform your home into something you only ever previously dared dream about. We pride ourselves on providing a high quality, specialised service and guarantee that by taking advantage of our expertise, there will be no room for disappointment.

Great value for the price!! Its going to do exactly what I purchased it for!!!
This is my first ipadand I am delighted.
it is the 1st tablet I'v ever owned. Glad /i got it at a very reasonable price.
Bought this for my dad and I was happy with the purchase. Wish they could offer free shipping, that was kind of expensive but so far we have been happy.
The IPad arrived on time and as described, I ordered this for my son freshman in College when he travels he can watch movies, just asked him yesterday and said its perfect. Second purchase, so far completely satisfied.


Andre- I like the tried and true traditional way—varnish. I use Epifanse brand. Your beautiful table should give you plenty of practice so by the final coats you should be and expert. I would recommend the "roll and tip" method for the large flat sections. Apply with roller and quickly/lightly smooth with China bristle brush for the "tipping". See directions attached. Good luck. Enjoy!
Both of those tables are beautiful but they both look gigantic. Is there any room for humans in the cockpit when they are fully deployed?
With the extension on the length is 40 inches which 4 people can eat on comfortably. Without the ext. it is 28 inches which is normal for a cockpit table. I think the angle of the pictures make them look longer than they are. Hopefully anyway!
Noah does nice work, I would use his advice.
Yes I will try the epifane on a piece of my wood like my table.
Here are some pictures after the fifth coat.
I made a similar teak table and finished with Epifanes.
Here is another pic of the table in the normal closed config. It allows great access to the storage and seating areas. FYI, this table originally served as a cockpit table on my prior boat. The Epifanes finish is very durable.
Glenn, beautiful work. Are you going to be afraid to use it?
I am afraid to mount it!


The PRSI contribution, normally payable by employer and employee, is a percentage of the employee's reckonable earnings (i.e. gross pay less superannuation and Permanent Health Insurance contributions, deducted under a net pay arrangement by the employer, which are allowable for income tax purposes).
An AVC is a voluntary contribution made by employees in addition to the required contributions if any, that are to be made to their company pension schemes. Generally, an AVC is made to take advantage of the tax benefit and to also improve the benefits available at the time of retirement. AVC's are subject to Revenue limits.
Family Income Supplement (FIS) a weekly tax-free payment available to employees with children. It gives extra financial support to people on low pay. You will not qualify for FIS if you are only self-employed, you must be an employee to qualify.
The 2011 Budget on Dec 7th announced that the Health Levy and Income Levy are both to be abolished and replaced by a new Universal Social Charge from Jan 1st 2011 . The new USC deductions will be applied to all income paid from Jan 1st 2011 This USC is a tax and does not provide a benefit to those paying the charge.
Payment of a supplementary pension can arise where the person has retired from a Public Service position and was paying full PRSI i.e. be a Class A PRSI contributor and is only eligible for what is known as a co-ordinated pension, retires before reaching 65 years of age and who has no entitlement to any social welfare benefit or qualifies for a reduced level of benefit only.
I quote from the "Income Levy - Frequently Asked Questions" document as issued by Revenue on 30 th November 2009. Please click here to view the full document.

"Misinformation" is Dictionary.com's word of the year

The Columbia Journalism Review's 'Misinformation news stand.' Photo: Atilgan Ozdil/Anadolu Agency via Getty Images
Dictionary.com has selected "misinformation" as its 2018 word of the year, defining it as "false information that is spread, regardless of whether there is intent to mislead," reports AP.
The big picture: Search results on Dictionary.com suggested that society's "relationship with truth" has become a common theme, with words like "mainstream," "white lie" and "Orwellian" among those that spiked at various points this year, per AP. Social media platforms have come under intense scrutiny in 2018 for their role in spreading misinformation that incites violence — as in Myanmar, for example, where investigators say Facebook played "a determining role" in disseminating hateful rhetoric about Rohingya Muslims.
