Kieran McNamara, Health & Safety Manager, Bon Secours Hospital Cork
Participation in the Health and Safety Awards competition has been a very positive experience in the Bon Secours Hospital Galway. We found the competition process raised the awareness of Health and Safety in the Hospital and involved more people in the organisation. The competition promotes a strong Health and Safety culture.
Lorcan Gill, Facilities Manager & Fire, Health and Safety Officer, Bon Secours Hospital Galway
This is our first NISO/NISG submission and award. Best practice health and safety is critical to EMR's reputation, and is at the forefront of all its business activity, as is evident in EMR's participation in the NISO/NISG Awards. The distinction award is testament to EMR's continuous improvements to industry best practices and reflects its commitment to ensuring compliance to regulations and providing a safe environment for its employees and clients at all times.
Derek Glynn, Chief Operations Officer, EMR Integrated Solutions

This is our fourth year entering where we have been successful for three years in a row. The Awards process is a leading indicator in our drive towards attaining the highest standards of workplace H&S. Winning awards has increased staff morale at all levels and supported our global drive of ZERO HARM.
Declan Coughlan, Health and Safety Manager, Element Six Ltd.
We entered the Awards with a view to bench marking our H & S Management system against others. It was only after we won a distinction at our first attempt that we realised that the Awards were one of the vehicles we could use to improve. It was gratifying that in our second year of entry (2013) we had improved and were successful in winning the Northern Ireland Award. We are by no means Award 'junkies' but do see the tangible benefits that flow from entering and will be doing so again this year.
John Thompson, HSQE Manager, H&J Martin Facilities Management
It was with trepidation that we entered the Safety Awards in 2013. As a small company we envisaged being dwarfed by the giants in our sector. To say we were delighted winning a Distinction at our first attempt would be putting it mildly. Winning has given everybody the belief that what we are doing from a safety and health perspective is just so right.
Bronagh McGarrity, HSQE Manager, Irwin Electrical
We take safety seriously in our business. We've entered for a number of years and use the Awards as a way to focus our minds. Each year we strive to win a better Award and were delighted in 2013 to receive the overall regional Award. I would encourage anyone thinking of entering to do so as the rewards far outstrip the work that has to go into doing the entry.
Nicola McCracken, Health and Safety Manager, Lagan Construction
I am delighted to receive the Best New Entry award which reinforces the status of North Tipperary Fire & Rescue Service as safety leaders within our sector. Our occupational health and safety management system paves the way for the best possible working conditions in our Service and I am delighted that our commitment in this area has been recognised with the award.

Why is this important?
Before you can start and detail your training program, you need to consider at what level your players are at the moment. What is the starting point for their development this season?
You need to observe their last matches, perhaps review video's or talk to last years coach. Another idea is to test their abilities.
Of course in the proposed learning loop, last seasons evaluation is practically the same thing as this part of the planinng process. You can use the LTAD model in this step.

Greece Takes Measures against Fuel Smuggling
By Ioannis Michaletos in Athens
Editor's note: the following exclusive repo, by longtime Balkanalysis.com contributor Ioannis Michaletos, analyzes new Greek government initiatives in countering pervasive fuel smuggling- and how deeply entrenched this practice is with other kinds of organized crime in Greece and the Balkans.
The Greek government recently began a significant law enforcement operation, codenamed "Poseidon." Meant to curb fuel smuggling, it employs a variety of methods based on new technologies. The plan may yet have political ramifications as well, due to the opposition of influential groups involved.
With annual revenues generated from illegal fuel smuggling in Greece reaching a staggering 3 billion euros, the trade has numerous ramifications, including the degradation of competition in the domestic market, the expansion of illegal activities in neighboring countries and the intrusion of organized crime syndicates in the energy sector.
Operation Poseidon
The action plan was developed by the Greek ministry of national economy, which is in dire need of capital. The plan involves techniques centered on the monitoring of the fuel trade in the country, so as to isolate instances of smuggling as they occur.
The financing of this project (further information, in Greek, can be found here) will be jointly shared by this Greek ministry and by the European Union. Further, according to information that is not yet verified, the Greek National Intelligence Service (NIS) will also provide know-how regarding the electronic monitoring of the smuggling networks.
According to Kathimerini, there are five key components that can be described as comprising the operation's structure. The first is the creation of an online database accessible to the authorities, containing all individuals and organizations involved in the fuel trade in the country. The second is a provision envisioning that all small oil tankers docked at all Greek ports will acquire a unique code, whereby the authorities will be able to monitor their position via GPS-SMS/GPRS technology. The same will be obligatory for fuel trucks.
Third, the Greek customs will have access to scanners that will check special electronic ID's installed in all fuel transport vehicles. Further, the customs service's central directory will procure a new helicopter and two speedboats by early 2009, and another five over the coming years.
Finally, the important port of Piraeus near Athens will in the near future get a Command & Control Center, from where the movements of every ship carrying fuel within the port zone can be monitored 24 hours a day.
This center will also be able to merge all electronic information being gathered via sensors in all vessels and fuel transport vehicles across the entire Greek territory. Sensors will be also placed in the taps of every unit that either carries or stores fuel. Thus, every time a transaction takes place, the center will be able to verify the quantity of the commodity that was either extracted or pumped in.
A source within the Greek shipping community in Piraeus states for Balkanalysis.com that "fuel smuggling is a well rooted activity that cannot be easily confronted and the corruption issue of the Greek public servants might well prove to be the strongest obstacle- [though] temporary results might be feasible."
The Backlash
Fuel smuggling is an activity that spans a variety of sectors, like the ports communities, crime syndicates and of course, the legal energy sector. Therefore the recent measures by the Greek administration have already started to arouse certain backlashes from those with vested interests.
Information has been provided by industry and political experts that indicate concern from some in the political opposition- influential figures who have much to lose in case a crackdown begins on a wider scale. The fragile political climate in Athens, and the possibility of yet another general election by early spring tends to confirm the above assessments.
On the other hand, the determination of the government to gain considerable and much needed taxes in light of the world economic crisis, and the pressure by multinationals that are aghast by the present situation in Greece, are factors indicative of a likely vigorous execution of the law enforcement crackdown on smuggling.
Moreover, if one takes into consideration that fuel smuggling networks have already expanded into neighboring countries and are also interrelated with other criminal activities there, such a sustained prosecution of this illicit trade via 'Operation Poseidon' might well serve to diversify fuel smuggling into other commodities or into different geographical zones.
A Shadow Trade
Greece, being a major shipping country, is also one of the main markets for contraband shipping fuel. According to existing regulations, the oil for ships must cost one-third the price of home heating oil.
Now, what is actually happening is the fake transfer of oil to ships that in reality gets into the housing and automotive oil market, providing huge profit margins for the smugglers.
There several methods used by smugglers, who have developed a sophisticated criminal infrastructure to sustain their activities. First, they construct a series of illegal depots, near the main ports and metropolitan centers, where the shipping oil they purchase can be stored. Afterwards, they use chemical variants to destroy the substance that differentiate marine oil from housing oil. The final stage is the transfer of the product to the market, thus making a great profit by avoiding taxes.
A second popular method of smuggling fuel is the purchase of excess amount of oil by maritime companies, or by the owners of individual boats. The oil is then transferred on shore via small oil tankers, and placed in the illegal depots; from there it finds its way onto the legal market.
A source in the Greek merchant marine ministry reveals for Balkanalysis.com that small ships and yachts that actually sunk long ago are still being claimed in forged documents as recipients of shipping oil. Thus, when the authorities disentangle the criminal web involved in such cases, "they often find a non-existing vessel and of course no crew or persons responsible."
Further, "Greece has a long tradition of oil smuggling and breaking of embargoes in war zones such as the former Yugoslavia, certain African countries and the Middle East," says this source.
Lastly, another aspect of smuggling is the actual theft of some 1-2 percent of oil reserved for legal sale to a vessel. This does not even require the knowledge or involvement of any of the crew officers, either; simply, a small amount of oil is not delivered and remains with the supplier, who then illegally sells that amount to other customers. This can be achieved due to the large amounts of oil being supplied daily throughout Greece, which allows for small 'mismanagements' on oil supply that at the end of the year, add up to great profits.
All in all, there are countless methods for clever smugglers to find to divert fuel resources for illicit profit. And they are apt students when it comes to innovation and evasion of the authorities. In this case, the involvement of state officials and energy managers is paramount.
Regional Ramifications
Corruption in the Greek fuel market is also entangled with the wider Southeastern European one, creating a web of shadowy interrelated crime groups in the region. In countries such as Albania, Montenegro, and others; the smugglers create front companies that officially import fuel from Greece- fuel that never actually reaches them, but which is instead kept in Greece to supply the domestic market.
According to reports created by the Greek ministry of national economy, such exports are non-existent and in many cases the fuel shipment is either changed with another commodity (i.e., from oil to water) or mixed heavily with other substances, and a significant quantity again remain in Greece. The involvement of customs official seems certain, since all export shipments are routinely checked, though very few smuggling cases have ever been revealed.
Another source, a fuel market expert, tells Balkanalysis.com that "the fuels to be exported are being bought without duties in Greece. Then the smugglers provide paperwork for alleged exports to neighboring countries. Usually a customs official is being bribed in the process, and finally the front company provides an invoice that it has accepted the fuel from Greece."
Since Southeastern Europe is characterized by a corrupted public sector and lax financial controls, the Greek smugglers have great interest to expand in these states. Further, Greek-owned front companies are being used to conduct illegal trade between Balkan states, and there are indications that they have expanded their activities in the Black Sea states as well.
The annual turnover of this activity has not been assessed by any organization, but it is estimated that it numbers hundreds of millions of euros per annum.
The Nexus of Energy Smuggling and Organized Crime
The existence of a business climate in the region that hinders lawful investments and competition means heavy costs for local economies, despite the huge earnings of the small number of people involved in smuggling.
Panos Kostakos, an analyst on international organized crime networks and academic at Bath University in England provides several clues on the overall situation regarding fuel smuggling and its wider impact.
In relation to oil smuggling as an international organized crime activity, Mr Kostakos states for Balkanalysis.com that "all smuggling and all organized crime activities have global connections. Some are obvious, such as cocaine heroin, marijuana and prostitution; some are less obvious, like extortion, racketeering, economic crime and so on. Fuel smuggling has global connections and it's also very much dependent on local connections."
Fuel smuggling is considered a 'white collar crime' because "it is conducted by high society, businessmen, shipowners and other respectable individuals," states Kostakos. "Society does not perceive them as criminals. They themselves have a non-criminal identity. In my interviews with smugglers/businessmen I often hear the excuse, 'everybody does it,' 'it's a common practice,' and 'it's not risky.'
On a second front, the Greek expert contends, Greek smugglers operating beyond Greek borers have made "huge fortunes overnight" by breaking oil embargoes. At the same time, within Greece large multinational oil companies are believed to have their own internal investigators to identify how many barrels of oil get missing each year, when 'freelancing' employees siphon off the commodity of their own accord.
The port community in Athens, according to experts, is another important group that engages in numerous illegal activities due to the significance and role of shipping. Panos Kostakos notes that his research has found "cases of obvious links between cocaine distribution, oil smuggling, and extortion rackets."
In general, he says, Athens-based criminal rings specializing in distribution activities "have access to various commodities, such as oil, prostitutes, drugs and protection services. If you look at the known 'Godfathers' on the Athenian night-life scene, you will find links between drugs, racketeering and oil. From my own field work, I can also say that they are also dealing with prostitution and trafficking," states Kostakos.
"There is some overlap, especially in the lower levels," he adds. "The closer one gets to the consumer, the more diversified is the product that the broker can get hold of and supply to the market."
From the foregoing, it becomes clear that fuel smuggling is a little-mentioned but very lucrative part of the larger Greek, and Balkan organized crime sphere of activities, and that it has necessary relations with legitimate businessmen, politicians and state agencies. Further, though it is an illegal activity, fuel smuggling carries none of the social stigma with it that results in a public outcry- such as murder, arson, drugs or prostitution trafficking, etc. It is relatively easy for fuel smugglers to slip under the radar.
The Greek government's implementation of the new "Operation Poseidon" may well have some effect on curbing the trade. However, it will also have potentially dangerous political ramifications, considering the developed relationships between smugglers, men of industry and politicians and public servants. It is unlikely that any police activity will ever fully defeat the smugglers, however, as human ingenuity means they will probably simply find other ways of transporting and selling their product to avoid detection.

Giving high quality olive oils is a very unique and memorable gift. We've given you a few options to spoil your friends and family!
Looking for variety? Browse our package deals and sample the different tastes a country, region or specific producer has to offer. Save up to 15% when buying together.
You asked, we listened. We've added over 25 high quality vinegars to our wide selection of oils to give you more buying - and eating - choices.
Here at Olive Oil Lovers we aim to do-away with the confusion by not only offering a comprehensive selection of some of the best oils in the world, but to also provide you with the critical information necessary to help find the right oil for you. We're not just an online store, but a platform where the olive oil novice and connoisseur alike can expand their knowledge and their palate.
We understand that no two palates are alike and our ever-expanding line of olive oil is specially chosen to offer something for everyone. Whether it be a grassy, peppery Koroneiki from Crete; a softer, fruity Arbequina from Andalusia; or a powerfully pungent Moraiolo from Tuscany, we have the perfect olive oil just for you.
It is a proven fact that in just eight hours of close exposure to strong overhead fluorescent lights, such as those found in supermarkets across the country, an olive oil packed in a clear glass bottle will be irreparably destroyed, having lost its color, flavors and aromas - a tragic fate for even the highest quality olive oil. Although it offers better protection, even oil packed in a dark glass bottle can be completely destroyed in less than a week. For this reason alone, purchasing olive oil in a supermarket with its 24 hour light exposure is a less than desirable prospect.
At Olive Oil Lovers we have a deep knowledge and understanding of the numerous practices required in producing the highest quality olive oil beginning with the care of the trees, to the harvesting and pressing of the olives, down to the critical factors required in properly storing an olive oil. You can feel confident in knowing that when you buy an olive oil online from us, the moment our oil reaches your doorstep, not one step in the quality process has been overlooked.

Church Membership: Is It Biblical? (Part 1)Posted February 20th, 2014
A while back I preached a series of sermons dealing with the Christian's calling as member of the church. One thing I did not deal with in those sermons was to demonstrate from Scripture an argument for church membership. In the context of our congregation, that conviction is not disputed.

There ain't no future
I think common sense varies from person to person depending on the person.For example..."Someone didn't turn off the water"Person A--Turn it off, don't waste waterPerson B--Don't turn it off, maybe someone left it on for a reason, they were warming up the water so they could grab a napkin and dab the stain out of their dress.Person C--I'm not turning something off, I didn't turn on. How is it my responsibility? Cleaning up after everyone and making sure they succeed in shutting things off and turning them on. I'm not their maid.I'm kinda pissed my dad wouldn't let me see Chris last night. Fuck it, you know? This is so hard. And no one helps me. I called all my "friends" to come with me, and I got a bunch of "IM in New York" "I'm in Florida" "I can't go, my parents don't like Washington twp."You're parents don't' like it? When did we start caring about what our parents like? Was it when I shoved an obnoxious safety pin through my nose? Was it when I belted out cynical lyrics over the microphone like "fuck this country haha and FUCK YOU" How about when I stopped wearing skating brands and became an utter fashion punk dedicated to my music. Yeah you heard me, fashion punk. To me, that's different from a poseur. A poseur just does punk for fashion and memorizes lyrics and bands to fit in. What I do is dedicate myself fully to my music and advocate the bands I like through my skirts, shirts or anything else. I look very fashionable, without trying. So therefore I'd consider myself a fashion punk. Doesn't make me any less of a person, in fact I know I'm ten times the person you are, or could ever be. Come on, I talk shit, get in peoples faces, call people I hate just to tell them I hate them. I resist authority as much as possible, and always look for confrontation. Ever been arrested? I have. Sucks. But now, I can write about it, so that I have more cynical lyrics to yell out about pigs and little girls in shopping malls. Ignore what you just read, Im drunk as anything.40s!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Version: self::VERSION
by: Zach Copley, Julien C
source: http://gitorious.org/statusnet/mainline/trees/master/plugins/TwitterBridge
description: The Twitter "bridge" plugin allows integration of a StatusNet instance with Twitter
Bridge model
Unlike OStatus federation, we have no way to inform the Twitter service that one of our users wants to follow one of their users, and their service provides no way for one of their users to directly follow one of our users.
As a result, we have to work with a bridge model rather than a federation model. You create separate accounts on the StatusNet and Twitter sides, and the bridge sends messages back and forth between the two sides. Other Twitter users follow your Twitter account, and other StatusNet users follow your StatusNet account.
The bridge is designed with the StatusNet account as primary:
- your posts on StatusNet -> reposted on Twitter for your Twitter followers to see
- posts from your Twitter followees -> reposted on your StatusNet friends timeline for you to see (if enabled)
This has some annoying limitations, such as conversations and replies sometimes being split between the services, but in many respects it works reasonably well... as long as we can actually get messages moving in real time.
Export to Twitter
Exporting basic messages over the bridge to your Twitter account has been working pretty well for quite some time.
State as of 0.9.5
In 0.9.5, some new features were added which can toss some more metadata over the bridge when manipulating a notice known to have been bridged to/from Twitter:
- repeating a notice will use Twitter's retweet API instead of posting an 'RT @blah' status update.
- faving/unfaving a notice on StatusNet will duplicate the favorite state on the Twitter side
- deleting your own notice will delete its copy on Twitter
Execution model
After a notice is posted into the system, it's run through a number of background queue handlers for processing. One of these checks to see if the user who posted has connected their Twitter account and configured it to send messages over the bridge.
If so, the queue handler reposts the notice text as a Twitter status update using the user's stored OAuth credentials.
Fave/unfave and delete actions are currently mirrored immediately.
- Work out issues with confusing @-reply settings
- allow for explicit @firstname.lastname@example.com addressing as well?
- Run bridged meta events (fave/unfave, delete) from background queues to improve interactive performance of main stuff
- Improve failure modes in the queueing: if Twitter is down for a while, we should resend when it's back up!
- needs delayed queues
- Currently we have no way to know if an OStatus-borne message was bridged to Twitter from its origin site, so the special fave & repeat bridging won't work on them.
Import from Twitter
State as of 0.9.5
So far we've had a functional, but fairly limited, ability to import notices from Twitter into StatusNet.
0.9.5 added some ability to pull more metadata as well, such as proper marking of retweets as repeats. In the incoming case, we're able to pull the original remote notice in silently even if we hadn't seen it before, since all needed info is passed to us with the retweet.
Statuses from private/protected Twitter streams are not currently imported; nor are direct messages.
Execution model
There's a standalone daemon, twitterstatusfetcher.php which can be run in the background for each individual StatusNet site with importing enabled. This daemon periodically fires up and goes through the list of all users who have connected Twitter accounts and enabled import of their friends timeline.
For each such user:
- Make a request to the Twitter API for the friends timeline, for changes since the last recorded status update on that timeline
- For each status:
- Check if the status was already imported; if not:
- Check if we have saved a profile for the sender's Twitter account; if not:
- Create one, saving the avatar etc.
- Save as a local notice with the local profile, marked as having come over a remote gateway.
- Check if we have saved a profile for the sender's Twitter account; if not:
- Add the imported notice to the user's inbox.
- Check if the status was already imported; if not:
- For each status:
For an individual single- or few-users site this isn't too awful, but polling means it may take a few minutes for messages to make it in over the bridge.
For a high-scale site this is completely untenable; polling through a giant list of users on a big site takes too long and makes too many API hits to be practical. Worse yet, if you have a large number of small sites with shared infrastructure, you need to run one daemon per site.
There are some issues to clean up in the actual importing:
- local addressing/inbox delivery seems very ad-hoc
- messages don't go through queues for things like XMPP and Meteor delivery, so don't get sent to people reading through those systems.
- Need to devise a way to send direct messages to Twitter users
- Need to make import scalable
Scaling: next steps
I'm starting to experiment with Twitter's streaming APIs, which are stabilizing nicely. The user streams API is now officially in production, and the still-beta site streams now support fetching the friends timelines of multiple users at once which should be friendlier for bulk-hosting.
Provisional execution model for a single site:
- Start a daemon using the IoMaster/IoManager async IO daemon infrastructure our queues are built on...
- Pull the list of users with Twitter import enabled.
- Divide the list into chunks of 100 (maximum of 1000 chunks for now without special arrangements -- that's 100k users)
- For each chunk, open a streaming HTTP connection to the server, which will receive quasi-realtime updates for those 100 users.
- Run async i/o loop...
- when a message comes in over one of our sockets, check which user it belongs to and pass the message & destination user into a background queue for import.
- if a connection goes off, restart it with the same(?) target listeners -- use sensible backoff behavior etc
- if a new user sets up Twitter import, open an individual stream for them...
- periodically recombine the individual streams into new group streams until you've got another full chunk of 100
The actual status->notice import would be the same as in the polling model, but running in the general queues:
- Check if the status was already imported; if not:
- Check if we have saved a profile for the sender's Twitter account; if not:
- Create one, saving the avatar etc.
- Save as a local notice with the local profile, marked as having come over a remote gateway.
- Check if we have saved a profile for the sender's Twitter account; if not:
- Add the imported notice to the user's inbox.
Note there are some potential pitfalls:
- Streaming APIs only give you current data -- if the importer daemon is disconnected for a while it can miss things.
- May still need to poll to fill in gaps.
- We may get multiples -- for instance if we have 200 users who all listen to the same guy on Twitter, it looks like it'll deliver it 200 times, individually addressed to each user's timeline.
- May need to more aggressively check for duplicates before passing things back to the queues so we don't have weird conflicts.
A note on authentication for the site streams... If I understand it correctly, the stream API hit needs to authenticate with the Twitter credentials of the Twitter user who registered the application's OAuth consumer key. Then it can pull data for listed user IDs who have valid OAuth tokens for that application. I'm not 100% sure we can transition things cleanly with the existing identi.ca settings.
(Worst case scenario: register a new app and make people reauth under the new key when they turn on importing.)
(As a side note -- the ability of the app owner to pull your timelines and direct messages may be a surprise to people using OAuth for non-web applications, where the individual auth tokens are usually kept on the user's device instead of centrally with the application author. But it makes perfect sense for web apps, which would be storing your keys on your behalf anyway.)
Scaling: even nexter steps
It should be possible to extend things a bit more to have a single daemon listening on behalf of multiple sites, just as our queue daemons do.
This may require a central table to store import state, so we don't have to cycle through tens of thousands of databases checking for users that need to be followed at startup.
A few sites might have their own application consumer keys and would thus require a separate connection, but most will probably run under a common status.net key. That'll let us combine connections, so one streaming connection under one app key + owning user can listen to timelines on behalf of up to 100 users regardless of which individual site they're on.
moved here from Twitter:
The Twitter related settings are located in the upper right menu. Follow Connect and then the Twitter tab. To update your Twitter you just have to provide your account settings to your StatusNet service and confirm your credentials.
Automatically send my notices to Twitter.
All your dents will be posted at Twitter.
Send local "@" replies to Twitter.
Replies to users who exist on Identica will be passed on to Twitter.
You can help keep noise down by switching this off (For example, if there's a different person on Twitter with the same name!). If you reply to a username who doesn't exist locally, it will still be passed on to Twitter, so you can write replies or shout-outs to your Twitter-only friends from Identica.
With the new reply mode of StatusNet 1.0 all notices are send to twitter if the bridge is active (see e.g. bug 3386 and bug 2676).
Subscribe to my Twitter friends here.
If you want to subscribe to all your Twitter friends that happen to use the same StatusNet service.
Import my Friends Timeline.
Currently StatusNet software can fetch directly from Twitter, but this is not enabled on identi.ca as it's not yet functional for a high-load site.
In the meantime, there are several tools to post at identi.ca/StatusNet from RSS feeds like Twitter provides. Please have a look at the application list.
Future plans
Some developer-level info on future plans for improving the Twitter bridge.
at the moment there seem to be three different(?) ways to follow someone on Twitter:
for a certain amount of time it was possible to just add http://twitter.com/user as a remotesubscription via http://identi.ca/main/ostatussub (found by grmpyoldman, confirmed by march and alexs77).
- [following -> "außerhalb" (english?)]
- a list of still working twitteraccounts.
- pro:
- easy
- twitter-user has a remoteprofile
- con:
- slow ATM
- tweets come in in waves
what works, what not? please add:
- from identi.ca to twitter
- from twitter to identi.ca
- from statusnet cloud sites to twitter
- from twitter to statusnet cloud sites
- can be set up manually?
- from own installations to twitter
- from twitter to own installation
- seems to work, at least for SN <1.0 it works by running a demon to import the timelines, this demon has problems since SN 1.0

The Honesdale National Bank, Trustees
MILLER MEMORIAL SCHOLARSHIP Application 2014
2015 scholarship information will be posted as soon as it becomes available. Thank you for your patience.
Information about and criteria for award:
The ALBERT O. MILLER, DOROTHY TOZER MILLER, AND SAVONNA COMMANDERY #89 Scholarship Fund was established by the Last Will and Testament of Dorothy Tozer Miller. The Millers understood and advocated the primary Masonic ideals of education, worship and charity. To that end the scholarship fund was established to promote intellectual enlightenment among the youth of Wayne County.
Primary recipients are awarded one thousand dollar ($1000.00) annual scholarships which are renewable up to four (4) additional years (possible total award of $5000.00). The award will be paid jointly to the recipient and his/her chosen institution of higher learning.
If funding permits, additional one-time awards may be made. If latter funding of these additional awards is possible, prior one time award winners will be given preference in future one-time awards.
The annual award will be paid in two equal installments, one prior to the start of each semester. Only those anticipating attending or actually attending four year colleges and universities in pursuit of a bachelor's degree or equivalent may receive an award.
Award recipients must have completed high school with at least the equivalent of a 2.5 GPA based on a 4.0 scale. Recipients must also, while in college, attain an accumulated GPA of 2.5 out of 4.0 for his/her first and second semester and a GPA of at least 3.0 out of 4.0 (or equivalent) in each subsequent semester.
All award recipients must be full-time students taking at least twelve (12) credit hours per semester. All recipients must provide the Scholarship Committee (see below) with a copy of their grades at the end of each semester in order to be considered for continuation of a renewable award or for future consideration of "one-time" awards.
Award decisions will be based on the showing of need and the information contained in and attached to the application. Neatness and cogent thought will be considered. All recipients must be of good moral character and of good report within their community and school.
Masonic affiliation is useful but not required or determinative of award. Wayne County residency is highly considered in the award. Residency outside Wayne County does not automatically disqualify an applicant.
Award decisions will be made by a Scholarship Committee consisting of five Knights Templar of Savonna Commandery #89, Honesdale, PA. All decisions of the Committee shall be final.
Correspondence to the committee may be sent to:
Trust Department, Miller Scholarship
The Honesdale National Bank
