Nuclear Nonproliferation:
Limited Progress in Improving Nuclear Material Security in Russia and the Newly Independent States
RCED/NSIAD-00-82: Published: Mar 6, 2000. Publicly Released: Mar 6, 2000.
(202) 512-3000
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the Department of Energy's (DOE) Material Protection, Control, and Accounting program, which is designed to improve nuclear material security in Russian facilities, focusing on the: (1) number of buildings that have received nuclear material security systems and the amount of nuclear material that is protected under the systems; and (2) program's costs to date, including a breakdown of program expenditures, the amount of program funds that did not go directly to program activities but have been paid in Russian taxes, and the estimated cost to complete the program.
GAO noted that: (1) DOE has identified 332 buildings that require nuclear security systems in Russia and the other newly independent states; (2) as of February 2000, DOE had completed the installation of security systems in 113 buildings that mostly contain small quantities of weapons-usable nuclear material; (3) about 50 metric tons of nuclear material are stored in buildings with installed security systems; (4) DOE is installing systems at an additional 72 buildings; (5) this work is scheduled for completion in 2006 and will increase the total amount of nuclear material in buildings with security systems to 400 metric tons; (6) however, DOE has not started work on the remaining 147 buildings and has also suspended work on buildings at a number of sites; (7) most of the buildings where DOE has not started or has suspended work are in Russia's nuclear weapons complex, and Russia has limited DOE's access to these buildings because of security concerns; (8) DOE is negotiating with Russia to gain better access to its nuclear weapons complex; (9) from fiscal year (FY) 1993 through 1999, DOE received $590.7 million in appropriations and spent $481.2 million to improve the security of nuclear material in Russia and the newly independent states; (10) DOE carried over about $86 million in unspent funds into FY 2000 and reprogrammed $23.8 million to other programs; (11) according to DOE officials, the inability to spend funds in a timely manner is due, in part, to the inherent difficulties associated with doing work in Russia, such as building access limitations, that delay the completion of projects; (12) DOE does not know how much of the program funds provided to the sites has been paid in Russian taxes because the Russian tax authorities do not directly tax the program; (13) instead, they tax the Russian sites and sites' subcontractors who receive the program funds; (14) in 1999, Russia passed a new tax law that, according to DOE, should relieve the program from paying taxes; and (15) DOE has not estimated how much funding it needs to complete the program given the increase in the number of buildings that require security improvements and new initiatives that have increased the scope of the program.
Status Legend:
- Review Pending
- Open
- Closed - implemented
- Closed - not implemented
Recommendation for Executive Action
Recommendation: The Secretary of Energy should develop, and update annually, a cost estimate and a timeframe for the completion of all elements of the Material Protection, Control, and Accounting program. The estimate should include the cost for improving security at all buildings identified as requiring improved nuclear security systems, for efforts to consolidate weapons-usable nuclear material into fewer sites and buildings and to convert it into material that cannot be used for weapons, and for providing assistance to operate and maintain the improved nuclear security systems.
Agency Affected: Department of Energy
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: DOE took action to implement the recommendation by issuing a cost estimate and time frame for competing the program however, GAO is still waiting for the official response to its recommendation.

Criminal Justice
Lawyer held in lieu of $2M bail, accused of shooting his wife in a domestic violence case
Posted Jun 17, 2013 1:15 PM CDT
By Martha Neil
A southern California lawyer is being held in lieu of $2 million bail on attempted murder charges in a domestic violence case, accused of shooting his wife at his home last week.
Mark Madrigali called 911 in the early hours of June 12 to report that she was injured. On Friday, he pleaded not guilty in the case, which includes multiple counts of attempted murder. He is also charged with assault with a deadly weapon and domestic violence, reports Bakersfield Now, a site for KBAK and KBFX news.
Authorities say they found several weapons at the Bakersfield home and believe a shotgun was used in the alleged attack.
Madrigali's lawyer, Mark Anthony Raimondo, urged against a rush to judgment and said Madrigali, who focuses his practice on driving-under-the-influence cases, is well-regarded personally and professionally.
Madrigali's wife remains hospitalized, and her current condition is unknown. It was reported as critical Thursday after surgery, according to the Bakersfield Californian (reg. req.).
If convicted of all of the counts he is facing, Madrigali would face a life prison term.
The newspaper says Madrigali's wife had sued for divorce last year, but did not pursue the case. He was previously disciplined by the state bar after a conviction for driving under the influence.
A KERO article provides additional details.

A very comfortable room & friendly, helpful employees. Nice view of the harbor and port. When we asked for a late check-out, they allowed us to stay until 3pm ~ which was terrific as we had a cruise in the late afternoon. We really appreciated their thoughtfulness!

Definitely worth a visitPosted Nov 23, 2009
We spent the weekend in Punta Arenas. This hotel is only about 2 years old, so very clean and well maintained. The breakfast buffet is included and has a variety of food to choose from. We ate dinner at the hotel the first night there and it was good, not excellent but good. My steak was done as I requested. There are many restaurants within walking distance of the the hotel. We saw a lot of airline crew staying there as well as people from Nasa that had been doing some scientific flights over Antarctica. The pool is advertised as being outdoors, but it is indoors and looked very nice. We didn't try it out. It is very easy to walk around Punta Arenas from this location. The hotel is right across the street from the boardwalk on the beach. The construction of this beachfront area is still being completed, but when done will be very impressive. We saw a lot of people walking along or running along the beach even though it was always very windy (being early spring in the far south in November). The people we met working in the hotel were very friendly and helpful. Many spoke English or at least attempted to and appreciated it when we tried our simple Spanish. I would recommend this hotel.

Master Higgins is back in the second installment of the classic Adventure Island series. This time, the Evil Witch Doctor and his monsters have taken over the island and captured Higgins's sweetheart too.
To reach her, Higgins must get through eight islands filled with stages of increasing difficulty. Along the way to each stage's goal, he'll encounter numerous enemies and obstacles. The last stage of each island contains an end boss that will push Higgins to his limits. In addition to his trusty axe, Higgins can enlist the help of four dinosaurs with different abilities that come in handy on land, sea and even in the air. With the help of his companions, only Master Higgins can restore peace to the island and save the lovely Tina!

Comments about Ten-80 Womens Sandbar Boardshort:
I love these shorts because they are not too snug in the wrong spots. They are true to size and fit great. I am 5' 6" and 132 lbs and I ordered a size seven. The waist is very slightly loose however I have a smaller waist and larger behind...lol. Anyhow I have a slight case of the over 40 saddle bags, so it is great that these shorts don't grip too tightly in this area. I also like these shorts because they come all the way to the knee cap maybe a hair longer but not at all above the knee. The fabric is the very light weight kind but still feels of good quality.

Orchid View serious case review published today
Updated 8:06am Monday 9th June 2014 in News
An independent report into the death of 19 residents at a Sussex care home will be published this afternoon.
The serious case review into treatment of elderly residents at Orchid View in Copthorne will be published this afternoon.
The serious case review was commissioned by the West Sussex Adult Safeguarding Board.
An inquest last October into the deaths of 19 former residents at the home near Crawley found there was a culture of "institutionalised abuse".
The coroner concluded five deaths were contributed to by neglect and all 19 care residents were given "suboptimal" care.
Relatives of the victims say the new report into the scandal must be a "blueprint for change" while Irwin Mitchell lawyers, representing seven victims' families, have called for a public inquiry into care industry regulations.
The Southern Cross run-home closed down in October 2011 and reopened as Francis Court under new management in February 2012.

Almost blackish purple in color. The nose is earthy with cured cherry notes, fresh wood, mint, dill, and deep black fruits. Thick tannins, with a medium acidity. Depth is there, and but it needs some time and seems to be lacking a bit of purity. Flavors are of dark spices and dark fruits. 3.5/5

Peter hopes reserve can gain confidence
5:30am Thursday 22nd May 2014 in Sport By Andy Warren, Deputy sports editor, email@example.com, @AndyWarren_
NUMBER one Peter Kildemand believes an impressive home debut against Leicester tonight would do young reserve Nathan Greaves the world of good.
The 16-year-old came into the Robins team earlier this month as a replacement for Dan Greenwood, who struggled during his spell in the Elite League, and has so far scored 2+2 from his first two top tier outings.
Greaves makes his first ever appearance at Blunsdon tonight after beginning his Robins career away from home, with Kildemand convinced a good outing can bring out the best in the youngster in weeks to come.
"Nathan seems like a good kid but he is still very young," Kildemand said.
"It's a big step up for him but he seems really keen, which is the main thing and it would be good for him to get a good meeting. If he can do that he will get some confidence which is really important.
"We try our best to help out as much as we can and pass on some advice to the young riders but sometimes it's hard in the middle of the meeting because there isn't much time.
"We do our best and it's up to all of us to help the youngsters improve."
The Robins take on a Leicester side including Swindon old boys Mads Korneliussen and Jason Doyle tonight, with Kildemand insisting only a three-point win will do.
"It's a bit of an old Swindon team from Leicester and that means they will know the track," he said.
"We need every point we can get at the moment and that means we need all the points from this meeting.
"It will be hard but I'm confident we can do it."

Don't cross the boss.
UFC President Dana White isn't exactly thrilled that former Strikeforce Light Heavyweight Champion Muhammed Lawal is running down the world's largest fight promotion after what "King Mo" perceived to be a lack of pre-event hype from the organization's new parent company.
That kind of thing can happen when the headlines are hijacked by the tomfoolery of Nick Diaz, who temporarily threw the UFC 137 fight card into chaos by no-showing consecutive media appearances.
Oh, and there was that whole Brock Lesnar vs. Alistair Overeem thing.
But was White purposely ignoring the Sept. 10 Strikeforce event, which aired live on Showtime and showcased the semifinals of the promotion's heavyweight grand prix tournament?
Here's what he told Yahoo Sports:
"If Mo whatever the [expletive] his name is, or any of those guys, think I planned all this [expletive] this week, they're out of their minds. Yes, we signed [Alistair] Overeem and made the Brock [Lesnar] fight. Do you think I expected Nick Diaz to pull this [expletive]? We have all kinds of stuff going and I didn't need this in my life. It is what it is and I never had a thought in my mind of [expletive] with Strikeforce. But I promote the UFC 24/7."
Lawal made a successful return to the cage last weekend, pasting jiu-jitsu wizard Roger Gracie in their televised light heavyweight match up.
It was the first step towards getting back into the 205-pound title hunt -- even though the division is currently without a champion -- thanks to the contract status of Dan Henderson.
Is "King Mo" soon to be without a kingdom? Or will Dana overlook his recent complaining and sign him to a long-term contract?
Anyone clamoring to see Lawal inside the Octagon?

Charges upgraded as hunt for Plaistow mother, boyfriend in beating case continues
Rockingham County Attorney James Reams updates reporters on the search for a Plaistow mother and her boyfriend outside the courthouse Wednesday. (Jason Schreiber/Union Leader Correspondent)
PLAISTOW - Details of the alleged physical abuse against a 3-year-old Plaistow boy fighting for his life emerged Wednesday as the manhunt continued for his mother and her boyfriend.
At a press conference outside Rockingham County Superior Court, County Attorney James Reams said he was confident that Jessica M. Linscott and Roland H. Dow III would be found. Reams delivered a stern warning to the couple: "No matter where you go we're going to find you, so surrender yourself and let's do this the easy way," he said.
Reams also announced that assault charges were filed against Dow, 27, who lived with Linscott, 23, at 197 Main St., Plaistow. Dow now faces one felony count of first-degree assault for allegedly striking Linscott's son, James Nicholson, in the head on Nov. 1 and causing a brain injury.
He is also charged with felony second-degree assault for allegedly burning the boy's wrist and fingers. Dow was charged with five counts of endangering the welfare of a child for allegedly failing to seek medical care for James on Nov. 12 and Nov. 14 when he suffered seizures and other symptoms from the head injury on five occasions, according to the complaints.
Linscott faces six similar misdemeanor counts of endangering the welfare of a child. She is also accused of not seeking treatment for James on six occasions when he was having seizures and other symptoms.
James remains hospitalized at Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon in serious but stable condition, Reams said.
The alleged abused was discovered by workers at Exeter Hospital when police said Linscott and Dow brought James in for treatment on Nov. 14. Concerned about his condition, hospital staff contacted Plaistow police, who then launched an investigation.
Arrest warrants were issued Friday for the couple, but they haven't been found.
Contrary to earlier reports, Reams said he believes Linscott and Dow have a car and are likely still in the area of southern New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts.
"There's no asset available to law enforcement that's not being used. We will locate them, it's just a matter of how long will it take and where will we catch them," Reams said.
As the search continues, Reams said the young boy is now in the custody of the state's Division of Children, Youth and Families.
Reams also warned that anyone assisting the couple would face felony hindering apprehension charges if they're caught.

The electronics titans square off in a tangled tale of mobile technology, centered on Apple's iPhone
Looking for an e-book reader? You have more choices than ever before--though the number of models we
With its more portable design, the Kobo Aura is a worthwhile -- albeit pricier -- Kindle Paperwhite alternative for EPUB fans who don't want to be tied to Amazon's proprietary ecosystem.
The new version of Kindle's back-lit Paperwhite e-reader is available locally from Big W and Dick Smith.
While the small updates to the 2014 model aren't enough for most existing users to upgrade, Apple's excellent 15-inch Retina MacBook Pro is still our go-to laptop of choice for shoppers at the high end.
Amazon has introduced a new version of its Paperwhite e-reader, now available for pre-order.
While it doesn't necessarily beat the Kindle Paperwhite, the $119 Nook GlowLight is an excellent e-reader that's strongly worth considering if you don't want to buy into the Amazon ecosystem.
The new iPad Mini somehow shrinks down the iPad Air into an even more compact package, sacrificing nearly nothing. It's more expensive than before, but it's also the perfect smaller tablet.
Sony Japan has announced the biggest E Ink reader to hit the market, with a 13.3-inch flexible display.
While the "all-new" Paperwhite may seem like an unspectacular upgrade on the surface, it's a clear improvement over the original Paperwhite and arguably the best e-reader currently available.
The affordable Kobo Mini is a likable touch-screen e-ink e-reader that's too small for some and not quite small enough for others.
On 3 December, Sony Japan will be launching the DPT-S1: a 13.3-inch E Ink reader for PDFs, aimed at the student market.

Behind the two man team of Terran Petteway and Walter Pitchford, along with one of the best defensive efforts in recent memory, Nebraska went on the road and thoroughly shocked the Michigan State Spartans 60-51 at the Breslin Center in East Lansing, Michigan on Sunday afternoon in front of 14,797 fans.
Petteway led the Husker (14-10 overall/6-6 B1G) scorers with 23 points and 5 rebounds, with Pitchford adding in 18 points and 2 steals.
Shavon Shields had 7 points to go along with 8 rebounds, and David Rivers added 6 points and a career high 7 rebounds in a surprise start.
Sparty (21-5/10-3) was led by Gary Harris with 18 points and big man Adreian Payne with 11 points. However, Michigan State had better offensive days, only shooting 34% on the day from the field. Even though Nebraska itself only shot 35%, the Huskers shot 40% in the second half, with MSU only going 33% from the field.
Nebraska never trailed in the second half, as they built off of a 32-35 halftime lead and outscored Michigan State by 2 after half.
The 51 points by Michigan State is the lowest output since they had 49 last year versus Wisconsin.
People are taking notice, folks. All over America.

In a bid to thwart a draft bill defining Israel as the nation-state of the
Jewish people, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni will begin polling Diaspora Jews for
their views on Israel's character.
Livni sees Diaspora Jewry, whose
conceptions of the state potentially differ significantly from those of their
their coreligionists in Israel, as a counterbalance to those seeking to pin down
Israel's character once and for all.
At issue is the so-called Jewish
State Law being pushed by the Likud-Beiteinu and Bayit Yehudi parties aimed at
resolving the tension between the Jewish and democratic aspects of the state by
defining Israel as primarily of Jewish character.
Israel is defined as a
"Jewish and democratic state" in two separate Basic Laws but the exact balance
between the two sometimes conflicting ideals has never been settled
The Likud-Beiteinu-Bayit Yehudi bill is similar to, though
less sweeping than, a bill sponsored by Kadima MK Avi Dichter during the 16th
In his bill, the former ISS Director defined Israel as
"the homeland of the Jewish people in which the Jewish people fulfill their
ambition to self-determination according to their cultural and historical
The right to national self-determination in Israel would be
limited to the Jewish people, according to Dichter's bill, ending the possibly
of Israel ever peacefully and democratically becoming a binational
Livni, who expressed fierce opposition to the bill in August,
appointed Hebrew University law professor Ruth Gavison to compose "a
constitutional arrangement dealing with the State of Israel's Jewish and
democratic character" as a counterbalance to the various proposals under
consideration in the legislature.
The Gavison bill would anchor the
elements of the State of Israel's identity "in a way that balances and
integrates these values" of democracy and Judaism, According to
Gavison has previously expressed her opposition to Jewish
immigration from poorer nations, Haaretz reported.
As part of her
mandate, Gavison turned to the Jerusalem-based Jewish People Policy Institute to
engage Diaspora Jews in what the think tank is calling an "unprecedented process
to impact Israel's character."
The JPPI is currently seeking to determine
worldwide Jewish opinion on the issues of religion and state being debated in
Israel and, Gavison wrote in a letter to JPPI, to determine "the appropriate way
to give Israel's identity as a Jewish and democratic state additional
legislative anchoring."
"The meaning of Israel's Jewishness and its
attitude toward democracy and human rights are important to all Jews," Gavison
JPPI announced in a statement that it had sent a letter to hundreds
of Jewish communities and organizations calling on them to call gatherings to
discuss the issue of Israel's core identity leading up to the group's next
annual conference in North America.
"Integrating the views of Diaspora
Jews on the matter of the character of the Jewish state provides an historic
opportunity to deepen the dialogue between the various parts of the Jewish
people and to better define the ties between them," the JPPI said.
on religion and state diverge in many ways between those living in Israel and
those in North America, where the bulk of Diaspora Jewry
Americans are used to living in a state with clear boundaries
between religion, ethnicity and national identity while Israel is a classical
ethnic nation state with a zeitgeist centered around a distinct group
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is reportedly furious with
Livni's partnership with Gavison.
A source close to the premier told
Haaretz in August that "Netanyahu did not welcome or support the Gavison

Family Matters: Discipline or punishment- to hit or not to hit?
A little girl about age 4 began a tantrum at the grocery store when her mother refused to buy candy. The man behind me in line declared with conviction, "Boy, if she were mine, I'd tan her little hide right here, right now." He seemed very satisfied with himself while everyone around looked at him or the girl with a jaundiced eye. Yes, this is a touchy topic.
So, your child had screwed up, yet again. He or she has done something that is clearly forbidden or failed to do something that was clearly expected. You're disappointed, frustrated and angry, as only our children can make us and you can see (in your mind's eye) the sheriff dragging him or her off to jail at some future date. You feel it's you duty to correct him or her. The only thing you can think of is to "get" him or her.
But wait, will it be punishment or discipline? Some parents may choose punishment. Other parents will choose discipline. This article will help you to discern the difference between the two.

Baird: "I am conscious that local people are feeling the effects"
Northumbria Police has saved £58million since the start of the Government Comprehensive Spending Review in 2010. Now, a further £46million must now be cut. The force will have to make job losses. The Police and Crime Commissioner Vera Baird has said she is conscious people are feeling the effects.
– Police & Crime Commissioner Vera Baird
"We are keen to make further savings by re-locating other neighbourhood policing teams into the communities that they serve, as this is what local policing is all about. However, we guarantee that no police services will be re-located until we have found accessible bases within the community for neighbourhood teams to work from and they are working well. "I am conscious that local people are feeling the effects of the economic downturn very acutely in our region. We have managed to protect frontline numbers and deliver the savings needed without the public having to pay more."

As an ordinary person you don't get to see the workings of the home of cricket. Not unless you sign up as an archery volunteer for the Olympics
Liam Herringshaw
February 26, 2012
Like many people, I regard Lord's with ambivalence. It may be the home of cricket, but home doesn't mean you'll be invited round for tea, met cheerfully at the door and told to come on in and take the comfy seat by the fire.
Yet my unease at its aloofness is always tempered by its wonder. Such ghosts, such grandeur, such history and heritage. A place where a cowherd from the Cape can meet a Demeraran demi-god, and where a lorry driver's son can end up with one of the stands named after him. Perhaps all things are possible there.
For both these reasons, then - the secrecy and the superheroes - I am extremely curious to know what goes on behind the scenes. Lacking nobility and cricketing ability, I won't get in through the regular channels, so must find other means of peeking behind the curtains. My only previous attempt, as a press man's schoolboy baggage handler wasn't wholly successful. It has taken me more than a quarter of a century to come up with a Plan B.
My second bite of the cherry is thanks to another venerable and polarising institution: the Olympic Games. Cricket and the Olympics have a bit of history, most of it long past, but some of it ongoing. However, although the sport won't be played in London, the 2012 Olympics will come to Lord's, as the venue for the archery.
Eager to help out, and to sample the Olympic experience, I had already signed up to be a volunteer, but with no particular preference of venue. Then Lord's was named, and my interest suddenly changed from very general to very specific.
Along with a quarter of a million others, I submitted a Games-maker application, and was lucky enough to get called up for an interview. This took me to Gateshead, Tyne & Wear, where I tried to justify how setting up a cricket association in Newfoundland made me qualified for a role as an archery volunteer. I really didn't think I'd convinced them.
|I hurriedly began reading up on archery. The target is the width of an extra-large cricket shirt and you have to hit it from a distance of three-and-a-half pitches. The diameter of the bull's-eye is less than half a bail's length. Accuracy of the Glenn McGrath variety is required
An arrow ignorance can't have helped, nor my tendency to ramble when asked straightforward questions. At the end of the meeting I thought the best I could hope for was a job in a football ground car park.
Some months later, though, I got a congratulatory email. I was in! Even more excitingly, I was in Lord's! Quite what I'd be doing there wasn't stated, but I hardly cared.
I hurriedly began reading up on archery. The target is the width of an extra-large cricket shirt, I learnt, and you have to hit it from a distance of three-and-a-half pitches. The diameter of the bull's-eye is less than half a bail's length. Accuracy of the Glenn McGrath variety is required.
Since the sport was reintroduced to the Olympics in 1972, South Korea has claimed more than twice as many archery gold medals as any other nation. In the men's events, the nation holds most of the records; in the women's it holds all of them.
So what will the Korean team make of cricket? The sport is growing in the region but is hardly a familiar sight on the parks of Seoul or Busan.
The archers seem at home already, though. Lord's hosted the London Archery Classic recently and South Korean star man Im Dong-Hyun - who, extraordinarily, is legally blind - claimed victory. Not just victory either, as he also broke the world record for a 72-arrow total, scoring 693 out of a possible 720. With an innings like that, his name is hopefully now top of the visitors' honours board.
My own warm-up event was at Wembley. Not an obviously cricketing location, but 1896 - the year of the first modern Olympiad - was also the year of the only first-class cricket match there, so I'm sure it was a deliberate choice.
Role-specific training takes place across the spring and summer, and hopefully by the end of July I'll know what my volunteering job entails. Hopefully I'll also have a taste of what it's like to be at Lord's for a major sporting event. There are all sorts of things I want to know, not least what happens when the first day of the archery finals just happens to be the first day of England's second Test with South Africa, at Headingley.
And with the British Olympic team likely to be jostling for supremacy with those medalling Australians, it'll surely be an atmosphere to match any Ashes series.

Roads maintained by Spartanburg County can be easy to spot. The green road signs have a distinctive marking on the left corner, usually a small bird. But in some cases, 7 On Your Side discovered those marking are misleading and some private roads have been improperly marked.
Russell Road near Wellford has five houses. Most are owned by members of an extended family of disabled veterans. In one, a navy vet is battling brain tumors. In another, a wheelchair bound marine and his wife.
Russell Road is a muddy mess and that marine, Steve Trump, says he can't leave his driveway.
"We haven't been down the road in a year in a half," Trump said.
For years, county tax dollars helped repair this gravel covered road. Then, after the family built new homes, added new driveways, something changed.

Stock returns in relation to environmental, social and governance performance: Mispricing or compensation for risk?
AbstractUsing detailed data on seven environmental, social and governance (ESG) attributes for a long panel of large publicly traded US firms during July 1992–June 2008, only community relations were found to have had a positive effect on risk-adjusted stock returns, which effect was not compensation for risk but could be due to mispricing. Additionally, a changing effect of employee relations was found, from positive during July 1992–June 2003 to negative during July 2003–June 2008. The positive effect could be due to mispricing, whereas there is some evidence that the negative effect was compensation for low non‐sustainability risk. A weak negative effect of human rights and product safety indicators on risk‐adjusted stock returns in the more recent period was also found to be likely due to mispricing. The implications are that certain ESG attributes might be value relevant but they are not efficiently incorporated into stock prices. Copyright (C) 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd and ERP Environment.

Walleye fishing on the Red not great, but improving
I can tell it's fall time just by the number of emails I get asking how the walleye bite is on the Red River! Still not good is the answer, but improving. I spent some time this past week reviewing my articles and notes from past years on the fall fishing on the Red. While last year was really good, there were a number of factors that contributed to the excellent bite. Good current flow, decent water quality and cooler temperatures along with prolonged north winds make greenback walleye fishing much better on the Red River north of Lockport.
A lot also depends on whether the emerald shiner run is strong. It's a simple equation; a ton of bait in the river will call in numbers of walleye. Since there's nothing like first-hand experience, two friends and I headed out Thursday to check things out.
Launching at Selkirk Park, we tried all the local hot spots and a couple of others as well. We ended up catching seven nice walleye, none bigger than two kilograms though. Four of them were caught trolling crankbaits along the main river channel in three metres of water and the others came on a jig tipped with a salted shiner minnow. Other anglers were catching walleye this way from an anchored position. We did do some drift fishing with little success. We did find some current, but it was mostly within two kilometres of Lockport and it certainly held the most fish, including a large number of hungry saugers. When the water temperature is still 16 C like it was Thursday, you will catch a wide variety of species. This day we caught pike, white bass, drum, stone cats, goldeye, sauger and walleye, enough to make the day very enjoyable.
OCTOBER IS BEST: Last year, the action really picked up the first week in October after we had a week of cooler temperatures combined with north winds. My first day out, a strong south wind had cranked up current as all the water that had been piled up in the river from the lake with the north wind during the week emptied out. This had the fish on the bit and it was not-stop action all day. I would anticipate this will probably be the case again this year, but there are enough fish in the system to make it a worthwhile trip.
ANGLERS NOTES: Our annual fishing trip to Moak Lodge the last week in August was even better than we could have imagined, especially for large walleye. Cross Bay produced walleye in the three- to four-kilogram range along with a number of master angler pike. Check out the trip on my blog at www.completeangler.net.
I think it is one of the best drive-to fisheries anywhere!

I kind of feel like making Beyonce and Jay Z a mix tape, WITH the first song on side A being: "Quit Playing Games with My Heart" by The Backstreet Boys, because these two have been fucking with my emotions for MONTHS! Ever since the whole Solange elevator fiasco, the rumour mill (which I have discovered is NOT a real mill) has been saying these two are having some serious marital issues.
More recently, even People magazine, the classiest fucking tabloid magazine on the planet, has been jumping on the "Beyonce and Jay Z are heading for divorce" train, which really made me think that the apocalypse was really upon us, because Bey and Jay breaking up clearly meant the end of the world.

PETALING JAYA: Kelab TaHa, started by Lembaga Tabung Haji in 2008 to encourage savings by children aged seven to 17, has drawn 1.12 million members, making it into the Malaysia Book of Records (MBoR) as having the most number of school children in a single club.
MBoR founder and managing director Danny Ooi presented the recognition award to Tabung Haji managing director and chief executive officer Datuk Paduka Ismee Ismail at a ceremony that also marked the club's sixth anniversary at the TH Hotel in Kelana Jaya here yesterday.
"The recognition shows the initiative and commitment by the TH staff, supported by the Education Ministry, school managements and students," Ismee said at the event.
"TH has more than 50 programmes annually for its young depositors, using academic and holistic methods to instil a passion for saving money from their school days.
"This certificate would be a catalyst to improve the quality of service of TH as a premier Islamic organisation and to ensure the continuity of excellence at TH and Kelab TaHa."
The event featured a choral speaking performance by students of SMK Tinggi Melaka, showcasing the range of values they learned through the club.
The club, which had started out with 119,651 student members, provides its members with a variety of benefits that include discounts at more than 300 Kelab TaHa network partners and 15% discount on accommodation at any TH Hotel & Residences.
Members eligible for excellence awards in UPSR, PMR and SPM examinations are given free examination guidance.
