regarding one chq. used two times by senior manager S.k bali chandan hola branch, delhi
The chairman,
Punjab national bank,
Sub:- Regarding the cheque no. 254392 was used by senior manager
Respected sir,
That I am maintaining a cash credit account no. 0265008700007539 with your bank in Khanna (PB.) from last 9years in the name of RAVINDRA AGENCIES.
That I gave my chq no.254392 of ₹75000/- to party of Delhi which also have account with Punjab national bank in chandan hola branch, Delhi in the name of Best bakers pvt ltd. But my account was debited with ₹44000/- against this( chq no.254392) which was of 75000/- on 29/06/2010 due lack of knowledge or irresponsibility of senior manager MR. S.K.BALI. When i complaint to customer care and RBI then after 25 days the 44000/- was credited in my account on 22/07/2010. But the matter was not closed here MR. BALI again used the same chq. in the system which already used and return the cheque to the party with memo "insufficient funds" on 24/07/2010.
How the one cheque used in bank system two times in any bank.According to guidelines of RBI the cheque used once in bank it cannot used again in the system and it is the property of the bank. But your senior branch Mr. S.k Bali broken all rules of RBI and does the magic which was impossible that why he promoted to chief manager. But I am suffering from 4years from court case of "Act 138" and every month I go to Delhi saket court on heavy expenses of lawyers and travelling.
Many times I call and e-mail to your's officers in which the AGM like MR. MAHAJAN,MR.TOTEJA, MR.V.K KHANNA, A.C CHUGH, MR. S.K. MALLICK, MR. GOYAL, MR. SHARMA, MRS SUMITA ROY many from these was retired but not no one solve my problem and every times they said that the chargesheet was filed against Mr. Bali. But now he promoted to chief manager WHY BECAUSE HE MISUSE HIS POWER OR HE IS AN MAGICIAN. But I am still suffering in court case.
Please give me the satisfied answer and documents so I will shows THOSE documents given by U in the court and I can get relief from court case and do my business for my family.
Ravindra agencies, khanna

Abuse of Authority & Colourable Misuse of Power
Shri A.K.Dargan 01.11.2013
Circle Head (DGM),
Punjab National Bank,
Circle Office, Chanakya Towers,
R.Block, Patna-800001.
Email: email@example.com; email@example.com
Reg: My application seeking information under RTI Act dated 30.07.2013 & 06.09.2013 and my grievances in payment of terminals, illegally withheld at the behest of authorities of PNB CO Patna.
Ref: My letter dated 03.09.2013.
Please take reference of your reply sent on 30.09.2013 vide registered post No. EF070286614IN dated 30.09.2013 posted at 21:20:43 P.M. by backdating the letter as 17.09.2013 like earlier ones. This letter was malafidely & intentionally shown written on 17.09.2013 and this is the general criminal practice of your RTI section to prepare letters in back dates as per convenience for false defence and for saving their skins and faces on account of their illegal acts.
You may please observe the records and find that only to hide treacherous, illegal and malafide acts of people working in your RTI section, no information as requested vide my request dated 30.07.2013 has been provided. The learned CPIO/CM HRD vide his letter dated 23.08.2013 stated " ------- the information --------- which in our view cannot be provided ------" . (Please peruse the letter dated 03.08.2012 of the same CPIO through which he by referring the RTI Act stated that views cannot be given). The basic objective of the RTI Act is meant to promote transparency and accountability in the working of an organization/ government, contain corruption, and make our democracy work for the people in real sense. The Act requires the public authorities to retain the records as per record retention policy applicable to the concerned public authority. The obligations of a public authority are basically the obligation of the head of the authority, which should ensure that these are met in right earnest and information shall be supplied well within stipulated time, as citizens have a fundamental right to seek information at par with the members of parliament and the members of state legislation. There is no scope for opinion, advice, clarification and views under the RTI Act.
Your CPIO/CM HRD has bluffed and cheated me in getting inspection of work, documents and records at yours in terms of CIC order dated 18.02.2013, the facts are available on record. Please peruse my copy of email dated 16.03.2013 read with my letter dated 03.09.2013, you must appreciate that whatever noting of CM has been put on his letter dated 9.3.2013, is his after-thought by back dating the same trying to save his ill deeds. The CPIO himself is responsible for grossly violating the above CIC order dated 18.02.13, the intention & reason for violation best known to him.
Sir, I think you have still not understood the whole episode and unnecessarily protecting the persons involved in criminal conspiracy (committed offence under Section 120-B of IPC), disobeying law by public servant – with intent to cause injury to another person under abuse of authority by grossly violating the Bank & CVC guidelines (committed offence under Section 166 of IPC), Framing an incorrect document by public servant with intent to cause injury (committed offence under Section 167 of IPC), false information- with intent to cause public servant to use his lawful power to the injury of another person (committed offence under Section 182 of IPC) and grossly violating the Principles of Natural Justice [The cardinal rule among the different rules of Natural Justice is that "No one shall be condemned unheard". An order affecting the rights of a person or having adverse consequences on him should not be passed without affording a hearing to him]. Under departmental action all the culprits involved in the conspiracy have committed offence under Reg. 3(1), 3(2), 3(3) & 3(4) read with Reg. 24 of the PNB Employees' (Conduct) regulation, 1977 which is punishable under Reg.6 of PNB Officer Employees' (D&A) Regulation, 1977. It is requested to get the whole affairs investigated by Chief vigilance or any other higher authority to get the truth and accordingly fix the accountability.
Sir , you observed in your letter incorrectly dated 17.09.2013 that " letter dated 16.08.2011 --- was duly supported by the certified copies of the court record and reporting was regarding a status of case and not reporting against an individual".
You may please peruse the order of CJM dated 27.10.1990 (one of the court record as mentioned by you above) it is admitted by the state that only allegation against me is that I made payments of two bank drafts worth Rs. less than 8,000/- issued by Pun pun branch as paying banker. The bank has also got thoroughly investigated the entire affairs by deputing two Senior Bank Officers – one from Head Office New Delhi and another from Zonal Office Patna in the year 1991. They thoroughly investigated and examined all the matters related to the said case and thereafter they submitted their report mentioning inter alia that there was no fault as well as no irregularity on the part of mine, and accordingly the Disciplinary Authority of Punjab National Bank after applying his judicious mind has decided that further action against me in that matter by the bank is unwanted and is not called for, and subsequently dropped the Staff Side Case against me in the year 1991 itself vide letter dated 12.10.1991 sent to the Regional Manager, Regional Office, Patna"A". There is nothing on record that any loss or damage has ever been caused to the Bank either in terms of money or reputation by any act/omission of mine & neither is there finding that I had committed any misconduct in discharge of my duties in my entire illustrious and unblemished career of 34 years in Punjab National Bank. The payment of two genuine drafts in question were ordered for payment by me as branch manager of paying branch was strictly in accordance with system & procedures of the bank, for which I was bound to do.
The false, malicious, vexatious and malafide reporting in the said letter dated 16.08.2011 as:
1. Reporting my case as Money Scandle [False reporting by bank's advocate]
2. Conducting my case in the judicial proceeding before the court of law by bank's advocate [False reporting by bank's advocate]
3. The allegation against me is defalcation of money while making payment under IRDP Scheme to beneficiary [False reporting by Manager law & CM HRD]
Can you also appreciate that these reporting to HO PAD (Prepared by Sri Gopal Krishna, Signed by Sri P.K.Jain and consented by Sri A.K.Gupta & Sri J.K.Gupta) is also derived from status of case against me?
On the other hand Sri Sanjay Kumar Bank's advocate has stated that he has issued his report under pressure and threat from CH through Sri Gopal Krishna. This fact has been brought in writing also with the CH Sri J.K.Gupta vide my letter dated 05.03.2012. Neither the fact is denied nor any action has been taken against the Bank's advocate/Manager Law or any other guilty persons till date.
I am simply asking for the documents from which the above three observation have been derived and reported to HO.
I totally disagree with your observation in your letter sent on 30.09.2013 that " allegation against the individual officers are not appreciable as staff is performing their duties on behalf of bank". Sir, please take note that why the Disciplinary Authorities in bank are serving charge sheets to their officers who are also performing their duties on behalf of bank ? Do you also condemn such acts of Disciplinary Authorities of PNB ?
Sir, you have disposed off my letter dated 03.09.2013 & 06.09.2013 but the application requesting information under RTI Act 2005 vide my letter dated 30.07.2013 has been intentionally denied by the CPIO & further my request for information sent to you by MARD (RTI Cell) HO: New Delhi vide their letter dated 12.10.2013 under Speed Post No. ED 04914351 2IN is still unanswered.
You as senior authority of PNB Circle office, Patna having full jurisdiction and control of information sought, being Public Authority & honorable CH , you are requested to please do not instruct the CPIO (who is party to the conspiracy), your goodself may please provide/furnish the correct and complete information which are blankly denied / not provided, along with the order passed by you in the matter please. Sir, since the appeal under the RTI Act is a quasi judicious function, it is desired that the justice is not only done but it should also appear to have been done. As such it is necessary that the order passed by the AA should be a Speaking Order giving justification for the decision arrived at after considering the each & every points/issues raised in my request.
CH is therefore requested to please consider all the issues raised by me and he is prayed to give reasoned decision in respect of each of the points raised.
Regarding payment of amount of gratuity & commutation of Pension it is to inform you as under:
The amount of Gratuity with interest upto 31.12.2012 only paid to me on 25.09.2013.
The amount of Commutation of Pension which was withheld illegally ( actually payable w.e.f. 01.10.2011) was sanctioned on 13.09.2013 second time (intentionally and malafidely sanctioned after 06.09.2013) against my request dated 30.08.2011, paid to me on 01.10.2013.
The bank for their illegal & malafide act is liable to pay penalty and compensation for harassing, victimizing, humiliating & punishing me without any irregularity, lapses or fault and injected me the agony of mental & physical suffering and torture on ongoing basis. Due to this very illegal act and abuse of authority on the part PNB Management CO Patna, the marriage of my daughter which was settled and fixed to be solemnized on 18.11.2011 could not be held due to the only fact that the retirement benefits have not been paid to me. Further on the assurance of CO Patna authorities it was fixed on 20.09.2013 and that too only give me further torture and humiliation. The humiliation which I met is unbearable and inexpressible due the extent of cruelty and caprice, malafides and malevolence, unkindness and unfairness, arbitrary, unreasonable and irresponsible conduct and behavior of the authorities of PNB Circle Office Patna.
Relief Sought:
1. The bank has to pay the interest @ 10% as per PG Act 1972 on amount of Gratuity w.e.f. 01.01.2013 to 25.09.2013 i.e till the date of payment.
2. The bank, if want to sanction my commutation of pension again in current date, they have to sanction it as on 05.09.2013 instead of 13.09.2013 and pay the difference alongwith interest @18% w.e.f. 01.10.2011 to 05.09.2013 for their illegal holding for 2 years.
3. The bank has to pay compensation of atleast Rs. 10 lacs for mental & physical sufferings on account of torture and agony met at the hands of PNB CO Patna authorities.
The above relief will have to be made within a time of 30 days, failing which I will left with no option but to go through all available legal remedies.
With regards.

Subject: Improving vigilance administration–no action to be taken on anonymous / pseudonymous petitions/complaints.
The Commission had reviewed the instructions regarding action to be taken on anonymous/ pseudonymous complaints and observed that the enabling provision In the DOPT's orders No. 321/4/91-AVD.III dated 29.09.1992 had become a convenient loophole for blackmailing and detrimentally affecting the career of public servants whose promotions/career benefits were denied owing to consequent investigation.
Considering all aspects, the Commission by virtue of powers invested under para 3(v) of the Ministry of Personnel, Public Grievances & Pensions, Department of Personnel & Training Resolution No.371/20/99-AVD.III dated 4thApril 1999, had instructed all Govt. Deptts./ Orgns., PSEs and Banks not to take action on anonymous/ pseudonymous complaints. All such complaints are to be filed vide CVC's instruction No.3(v)/ 99/2 dated 29th June 1999.
2. However, it has come to the notice of the Commission that some Govt.Deptts./Orgns. and, in particular, banks are not complying with the CVC's instructions and have been taking cognizance/action on anonymous/pseudonymous complaints. Very often, the content of the complaint, described as verifiable, is used as a justification for such action. The instruction of the Commission does not permit this line of action.
3. It is hereby reiterated that, under no circumstance, should any investigation be commenced or action initiated on anonymous/pseudonymous complaints; these should invariably be filed. Any violation of this instruction will be viewed seriously by the Commission.
Please inform categorically that the above CVC guidelines have been adhered to or not at HO and CO Patna level. If yes please furnish the detail. If no, why?, please also furnish the name of officials responsible for violation & What action would be taken against these officials for not adhering to CVC guidelines?

5. WHETHER THE APPLICANT IS BELOW POVERTY LINE: No

"Treating RTI as a joke and making mockery of RTI Act, 2005 by CPIO/FAA of PNB CO Patna"
Shri P.K.Jain (PF No. 43455) 03.09.2013
The Chief Manager (HRD)/CPIO
Punjab National Bank,
Circle Office,
Chanakya Towers, R. Block,
Patna – 800001.
Email : firstname.lastname@example.com ; email@example.com
Ref: Your letter No. NIL dated 23.08.2013.
Reg: Information under Right to information Act, 2005.
Please take reference of your letter dated 23.08.2013 through which you have tried to mislead the issue & intentionally refused to furnish the information sought vide my RTI application dated 30.07.2013 by mis-quoting the order of hon'ble CIC dated 18.02.2013 ( in the matter of second appeal preferred by me due to your very casual & extremely unsatisfactory approach in providing information as CPIO on my RTI application dated 04.10.2011, seeking information on eleven points). In the above order CIC has directed you to enable me to inspect the relevant files alongwith providing photocopies of the pertinent documents within 30 days from the issuance of the order. After receiving the order dated 18.02.2013 from CIC, I visited your office on 28.02.2013, 01.03.2013, 05.03.2013 & 13.03.2013 for the purpose but no positive & conclusive response was perceived. When I met you on 01.03.2013 and handed you the list of documents not provided/incompletely provided, you (CPIO) has assured and sought a time of 3-4 days for compliance of order of Hon'ble IC. On 05.03.2013 your designated officer told me that bank has also received the written order of the CIC and since 'within 30 days period' is still far away, so bank will call me (the appellant) later on.
That upto 13.03.2013 (5 P.M.), no communication has been released from your office either through dispatch, through telephonic/mobile call or through email, calling me for doing needful.
Lastly on 16.03.2012 I sent you an email (Copy enclosed) at 8.45 AM and visited your office at 11 AM to get the files inspected and collect the photocopies of the pertinent documents in terms of CIC Decision No. CIC/SM/A/2012/000594/VS/02170 dated 18.02.2013. On my arrival at your office, you told me that you are busy with the visit of one of your EDs and instructed your assistant Shri Gopal Krishna Manager Law (Processing officer preparing reply of RTI applications at the level of CPIO as well as FAA) to get some files inspected the same day and remaining on 18.03.2013, despite of knowing the fact that I would be busy with IBPS interview board from 18.03.2013 to 26.03.2013. Your Manager law get one RTI file (that too was without page numbering) inspected and provided me the relevant photocopies from that file duly certified by you. When I reiterated that I am not available on 18.03.2013 and will only be available after the conclusion of the interview of IBPS Mumbai i.e. only after 26.03.2013, you were agreed and told me that you will fix the date and time later on and will communicate the same to me for inspection of remaining files. I failed to receive any of your communication thereafter, it is height that whenever I tried to call you on your personal mobile number, by seeing my number you avoided to respond. Even after calling from another number you say hallo and by hearing my voice you disconnected your mobile.
From the records collected from you , it is desired to get some vital & important information for which reference was there & to expose the malafide, the information is being sought vide my RTI application dated 30.07.2013 which is quite different from the RTI application dated 04.10.2011. If you don't mind please it is your old tactics from the very beginning to deny, divert and intentionally delay in the process of furnishing information, as if, you are afraid of the fact that truth will come into limelight and persons guilty of conspiracy & malafide will be expose

»Osha Inspection In Virginia & Osha Recordkeeping and Reporting Seminar
March 31, 2015 9:00 AM
The OSHA Inspection in VA and OSHA Recordkeeping and Reporting Seminar A Woods Rogers Learning Experience SPEAKERS: Dudley F. Woody, Esq Stephen Burt, BS, MFA THE OSHA INSPECTION IN VIRGINIATuesday, March 31st, 2015 9am noonRoanoke Higher Education Center OSHA has increased enforcement to levels never seen before, from huge increases in the numbers of inspections, civil penalties, and citations characterized as willful or repeat, to more criminal referrals. OSHA has also introduced more aggressive strategies during inspections, creating a minefield for employers across all industries. All industries have been under unique levels of scrutiny and consequences of an employer being caught unprepared for an OSHA inspection are more dire now than ever before. In addition, there are new OSHA recordkeeping regulations effective January 1, 2015. With this new rule all covered employers must report to OSHA when even one person has inpatient care for a work related injury. Would you be prepared if you opened the door today to find a VOSHA Compliance Safety Health Officer (CSHO) ready to inspect your facility? Do you know your legal rights? There are many reasons that your company may have to communicate with VOSH or even have them enter your business to examine the worksite for compliance with Virginias worker safety and health regulations.Your failure to plan may constitute an emergency that will put unnecessary stress - human and financial - on your organization. Find out about some common misconceptions and some helpful hints you may need to address for compliance with the many OSHA standards. This three hour program will review employers and employees rights during an OSHA inspection, review the many written programs an employer must have on site, provide detailed recommendations for actions employers can and should take before and during inspections, and discuss strategies to help ensure the best possible outcome from an unexpected visit by OSHA. (LUNCH) OSHA RECORDKEEPING AND REPORTINGTuesday, March 31st, 2015 1pm 4pmRoanoke Higher Education Center In a press release issued September 11, 2014, federal OSHA announced the final rule for Occupational Injury and Illness Recording and Reporting Requirements. On February 26, 2015, the Virginia House of Delegates sent to the Governor, for his signature, unanimously approved legislation which will bring Virginia in line with OSHAs new requirements. The wording of House Bill No. 1681, § 40.1-51.1 is: "Every employer shall report to the Virginia Department of Labor and Industry within eight hours any work-related incident resulting in(i) a fatality,(ii) the inpatient hospitalization of one or more persons,(iii) an amputation, or(iv) the loss of any eye, as prescribed in the rules and regulations of the Safety and Health Codes Board."Note that the proposed wording of the Virginia bill requires all reportable incidents be reported within eight hours of the work-related incident, whereas federal OSHA only requires fatalities be reported within eight hours and all other reportable work-related incidents must be reported within 24 hours. This seminar can help ensure your records are correct and your organization is compliant with OSHA's latest rules, regulations, and recordkeeping requirements. In just three hours of comprehensive intensive training, Dudley Woody and Steve Burt will cover the very latest information on OSHA recordkeeping and reporting. You'll learn which employee incidents must be logged on the OSHA 300 log and how to properly maintain records in accordance with OSHA's current standards in order to present the air-tight documentation OSHA inspectors require. Breakfast and Lunch(Full-Day) will be provided.

Japan is lacking in far-sighted diplomats. One really prescient diplomat was Baron Kijuro Shidehara, 44th prime minister. Despite growing Japanese militarism, he attempted to maintain a non-interventionist policy toward China and uphold the principles of the League of Nations.

A friend recently wondered if she should stop taking flights at night because they were not as safe as those during the day. This statement prompted a debate and the question was eventually put forward to me. My initial guess was that it shouldn't make a difference given that most modern planes effectively fly themselves.
There is progress in the long-term struggle to achieve a nuclear agreement with Iran. Reliable reports indicate the United States and Iran have moved toward compromise.
Speaking at a White House summit last week, U.S. President Barack Obama gave his recommendation for countering violent extremism in the digital age. "We have to confront squarely and honestly the twisted ideologies that these terrorist groups use to incite people to violence," Obama said. "We need to find new ways to amplify the voices of peace and tolerance and inclusion, and we need to do it online."

The spate of brutal and systematic attacks on Christian communities in Syria, Iraq and Egypt by Islamic State (IS) has surged. Yet despite this targeted violence, there's a climate of international indifference by many governments and even some Christian communities in the West toward this modern-day religious persecution.
For the longest time, people looked to the Oscars to know which Hollywood movies to check out or download, who made it to this year's best- and worst-dressed list, and which hottest couple to watch.
U.S. President Barack Obama put the White House's Summit on Countering Violent Extremism on the right track by bringing into focus the central issue of these times: the preservation of religious freedom, national security and personal dignity for all. Extremists, draped in the stolen robes of faith, debase all of these aspirations.
China's development will generate huge opportunities and benefits and hold lasting and infinite promise, Chinese Communist Party General Secretary Xi Jinping told business executives gathered in Beijing for the APEC meeting. As China's overall national strength grows, China will be both capable and willing to provide more public goods for the Asia-Pacific and the world.

Leaflets of 3
jekeesl (south-central Arkansas)(7b)December 22, 2012
These plants were in rosettes 4 to 6 inches across, with stems only about 1 inch off the ground. They were on a roadside, shaded bank, in dry ground that was mostly shale.
Leaves were in whorls of 3. They appeared to be alternating, with 2 on one side, opposing the 3rd, and then switching 180 degrees around the stem. Leaves were only about 0.050 inch wide by 0.180 inch long, with tiny stipules at their base. The whitish stuff on the plant in the 1st photo is frost, since it was just 25F this morning when the photos were taken.

Latest Terrestrial planet Stories
The 200 known planets that orbit other stars exhibit incredible variety. Among them are a handful of worlds that weigh between 5 and 15 times Earth. Astronomers believe these "super-Earths" are rocky iceballs rather than gas giants like Jupiter.
Where are the other Earths? Answering that question is just the first step in NASA's long-range quest to look for life around stars beyond our solar system, according to Dr. Wesley Traub. And to answer it, he says, we have to go into space.
More than one-third of the giant planet systems recently detected outside our solar system may harbor Earth-like planets covered in deep global oceans that offer abundant potential for life, according to a new study by scientists associated with NASA's Astrobiology Institute.
The steady discovery of giant planets orbiting stars other than our sun has heightened speculation that there could be Earth-type worlds in nearby planetary systems capable of sustaining life.
LONDON (Reuters) - A huge daisy-shaped shield that would block out light from parent stars could be used to find Earth-like planets in other solar systems, an American astronomer said on Wednesday.
A gigantic, daisy-shaped space shield could be used to block out pesky starlight and allow astronomers using an orbiting telescope to zero in on Earth-like planets in other solar systems.
A huge daisy-shaped shield that would block out light from parent stars could be used to find Earth-like planets in other solar systems, an American astronomer said on Wednesday.
Scientists using NASA's Far Ultraviolet Spectroscopic Explorer, or FUSE, have discovered abundant amounts of carbon gas in a dusty disk surrounding a young star named Beta Pictoris.
Dead zones in space - which typically extend out to 13 astronomical units from the central star of an extrasolar planetary system - can significantly slow planetary migration so that planets are not lost to the systems.
In an article to be published in Astronomy & Astrophysics, two British astronomers present new numerical simulations of how planetary systems form. They find that, in the early stages of planetary formation, giant protoplanets migrate inward in lockstep into the central star.

Planetary and Space Science is a peer-reviewed scientific journal established in 1959 and published by Elsevier 15 times per year. As of May 2012, the editor-in-chief is Rita Schulz (The Netherlands). The journal publishes original research articles and short communications. The main focus is on solar system processes which encompass multiple areas of the natural sciences. Research that involves planetary and space sciences involves many disciplines. Celestial mechanics is part of these...
Terrestrial Planet Finder -- The Terrestrial Planet Finder is a proposed NASA telescope system capable of detecting extrasolar terrestrial planets. In May 2002, NASA chose two TPF mission architecture concepts for further study and technology development. Each would use a different means to achieve the same goal - to block the light from a parent star in order to see its much smaller, dimmer planets. That technology challenge has been likened to finding a firefly near the beam of...
Planet -- A planet is a body of considerable mass that orbits a star and that doesn't produce energy through nuclear fusion. Until recently, only nine were known (all of them in our own Solar system). As of the end of 2002 over 100 are known, with all of the new discoveries being extrasolar planets.

Gas Giant -- A gas giant is a generic astronomical term invented by the science fiction writer James Blish to describe any large planet that is not composed mostly of rock or other solid matter. Gas giants may still have a solid core - in fact, it is expected that such a core is probably required for a gas giant to form - but the majority of its mass is in the form of gas (or gas compressed into a liquid state). Unlike rocky planets, gas giants do not have a well-defined surface. There...
Extrasolar Planet -- An extrasolar planet is a planet orbiting around a star other than the Sun. Extrasolar planets were first discovered in the 1990s as a result of improved telescope technology, CCD and computer-based image processing which allowed far more accurate measurements of stellar motions. The first extrasolar planets were reported by the astronomer Aleksander Wolszczan in 1993, orbiting the pulsar PSR 1257+12. Subsequent investigation has determined that they are only planets...

by Sacks, Oliver
Publisher:Random House Value Publishing
In his books An Anthropologist on Mars and The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat, Oliver Sacks details the lives of patients isolated by neurological disorders, shedding light on our common humanity and the ways in which we perceive the world around us. Now he looks at the effects of physical isolation in The Island of the Colorblind. On this journey, he carried with him the intellectual curiousity, kind understanding, and unique vision he has so consistently demonstrated.
Drawn to the Micronesian island of Pingelap by reports of a community of people born totally colorblind, Dr. Sacks set up a clinic in a one-room dispensary. There he listened to patients describe their colorless world in terms rich with pattern and tone, luminance and shadow. Then, in Guam, he investigated a puzzling neurodegenerative paralysis, making housecalls amid crowing cockerels, cycad jungles, and the remains of a colonial culture. The experience affords Sacks an opportunity to elaborate on such personal passions as botany and history and to explore the meaning of islands, the dissemination of species, the birth of disease, and the nature of deep geologic time.

Change belt and all hoses?
Our 1995 Crown Vic Lemonzine has 55,000 miles in 10 years; 54,987 by us. It is slighty dustier than the day we bot it. No plans to replace it. All maintenance by the dealer as per the book since new. It lives in never never land (California).
Should we change the belt and all the hoses? No leaks. Belt looks good I don't see any cracks. Might be some but I didn't see em. The heater hoses would be a bearcat to change.
I don't find any published schedule on these items.
Posted by: Mikie (My Page) on Tue, Jun 21, 05 at 11:57
86 olds here with 22,ooo miles,, the heater core on a car died at about yr 2000 - all hoses are still going stong with the heater core in a bypass loop with a original hose.
Earthy :
With both"old" cars change the upper radiator hose.
Install a new heater core in the old Olds !! I'd say the two cars have quality equal to or better than the '88 Honda Accord...
We have a '97 Saab and a '96 900S, over 250K miles on both, , with the original upper - in good shape, but I should change them !
The correct answer from a pm point of view is yes, replace them. Having said that, I replace belts when I see a lot of cracks. I leave the hoses on my stuff alone unless I see a problem with them or am doing some other repair that requires removal of one or more. Heater hoses always make me nervous. Too easy to create a leak in the heater core, and that's usually hard to replace. It's a b*tch to start with no problem and create one in the name of prevention.

SuperSellers Feature Article, February 1999 With This Ring… Lucrative Sales Can Be Made Soon-to-be-married customers are a great source of immediate revenue for jewelers. But did you know that nearly eight out of 10 say they plan to return within the first two years of marriage to the store where they bought their bridal rings to purchase more jewelry? Can you afford to ignore this growing and lucrative market? Today's bride is savvy, armed with information and ready to scour jewelry stores everywhere to find the bridal styles that fit her personality. Do you know what these customers are looking for and how to attract them to your store? Maybe not. An examination of volume retailers shows that no two seem to be doing the same thing to capture the customer. Modern Bride magazine, however, conducted a survey in early 1998 to help retailers better understand the shopping patterns and preferences of today's bridal jewelry customer. The survey targeted women who were married in the first three months of the year. Brides who were soon-to-be or recently married were selected over recently engaged women, because the proximity of their wedding dates almost certainly indicated that they had completed their bridal jewelry purchases. Of the nearly 400 respondents, it appeared that couples were 41% more likely to purchase engagement rings at independent jewelers than volume outlets. However, the same group of women reported that their wedding band purchases were almost equally divided between volume retailers and independents (27% vs. 29%). A Valuable Customer The bridal jewelry customer is a valuable one to capture. Not only did the Modern Bride survey indicate that couples spent more than $3,100 on their SuperSellers engagement rings, they also reported that they spent nearly $1,800 on their set of wedding bands. That's $5,000 in sales that volume retailers can't afford to miss out on, not including the add-on sales of attendants' gifts and wedding day jewels. A chart published Dec. 22 in USA Today indicated that Modern Bride was right on track with its engagement ring responses. Modern Bride found that the average price of an engagement ring was $3,165 while the USA Today poll of men married two years or less found that they spent, on average, $3,155 on engagement rings. Gold, Platinum, Two-Tone? While platinum is growing in popularity – approximately half of all modern brides surveyed like the white metal – only 44% ended up with either a platinum wedding band or engagement ring. Of those who liked platinum but didn't select it as their final choice, nearly 60% cited the price of platinum as the deterring factor. With price in mind, most of the platinum now being carried in mass merchants' stores are yellow gold and platinum combinations, they said. While the types of metal carried are important in attracting the bridal customer, the most important thing to keep in mind is that attracting bridal customers does not mean attracting a one-time shopper. Eight in 10 of the brides surveyed indicated that they expect to return to the same store where they purchased their bridal jewelry for other fine jewelry purchases, more than half of which expect to make those purchases within the next two years. Capturing the Customer If there's one thing that's clear when examining the volume retail sector, it's that no two retailers take the same approach to attracting the bridal jewelry customer. The volume sector is a diverse one, encompassing discounters, department stores, jewelry chains and even electronic retail formats. With the evolution of new media, specifically the Internet, there are an increasing number of ways to get your store's name into the forefront of a shopper's mind. SuperSellers For example, prospective customers can learn about diamonds before even leaving the comfort of their own home, thanks to the Internet. A few moments with your search engine of choice can provide shoppers with a variety of informational sites to choose from. And retailers want to make sure that their name is associated with the good feelings that come with being an informed consumer. When thinking of solitaire engagement rings, the retailer who springs to mind first is Tiffany & Co. with its simple, classic settings. In many ways, Tiffany doesn't have to spend a fortune advertising its bridal selections because the company name and six-prong setting is inextricably linked to the concept of diamond engagement jewelry. Were they never to advertise again, the Tiffany engagement ring and famous blue box would still remain a classic symbol of love and marriage. Nonetheless, Tiffany & Co. launched its web site, www.tiffany.com, late in 1998. It is there on the site that customers can get information on the four C's and be instructed on how to get to the nearest Tiffany store for a complimentary copy of "Tiffany's How to Buy a Diamond" booklet or video. There is also a link to popular Tiffany bridal designs so shoppers can get an idea of what's in store before actually visiting their nearest Tiffany location. This feature allows customers to get a sense of how different rings look together, whether you like the classic knife-edge setting and band, the modern bezel-set etoile design, or some combination of the two. Most of the styles on display are shown in platinum, although 18-karat gold designs with platinum mountings are available in the stores. With the growing acceptance of online shopping and in an effort to attract the younger shopper, Tiffany & Co. is planning to add ordering capabilities to its web site late in 1999, according to President and CEO Michael Kowalski. Although the Fortunoff name is most familiar to residents of the New York metropolitan area, its jewelry, like Tiffany's, is similarly well-respected among consumers. They, too, have created an online presence that helps capture the bridal customers. The site, www.fortunoff.com, explains Fortunoff's "five C's" – cut, color, clarity, carat weight and confidence. The site positions Fortunoff as a trusted source for all jewelry needs and promotes the store's "Diamond Buyer's Survival Guide," another means of reinforcement for the idea that Fortunoff equals trust. Other Fortunoff benefits touted by the site: the company's use of diamond grading reports, SuperSellers a money-back guarantee and its trade-up policy, where the buyer is guaranteed to get exactly what he paid in a trade for a larger diamond. Discounters Discounters differ in their methods for attracting the bridal shopper. Kmart, for example, doesn't specifically target the customer at all. "We offer plain gold bands ranging in price from $30 to $100," said a Kmart representative, who indicated that these rings were in the showcase as part of an overall gold selection, rather than as a specific draw for shoppers. Yet Kmart's competitor Wal-Mart does feature specific bridal jewelry offerings in its fine jewelry department. Wal-Mart, the largest fine jewelry retailer in the United States, takes every available opportunity to cater to as many different shopping needs as possible. At a Wal-Mart store in New Jersey, bridal selections were prominently featured in a corner case at the intersection of two main aisles, capturing the eye of shoppers no matter what direction they're heading. The selections were small and simple but tastefully presented, with less clutter than typically found in bridal jewelry cases. Wedding bands were available in 10-karat gold, both plain and diamond cut styles. Engagement rings in both solitaire and multi-stone configurations were neatly displayed and priced between $99 and $599. At Ames Department Stores, bridal jewelry has performed particularly well, and the company plans to broaden the assortment, according to Sandy Sansavera, general merchandise manager for the Rocky Hill, Conn., company. Ames' two strongest categories are princess-cut diamond engagement rings priced at about $129 and trio ring sets. Jewelry Chains There are two main approaches to the presentation of bridal jewelry at chains: Catch the shopper's eye by placing the jewelry at the front of the store, or create a feeling of seclusion from the bustle of the mall by nestling the bridal assortment at the rear of the store. A Littman Jeweler's location in the Philadelphia area had a sizeable selection of bridal jewelry nestled in the rear of its long, narrow store. SuperSellers However, the cases were heavily stocked with merchandise, preventing the customer from truly appreciating the variety of merchandise available, from solitaires in all shapes to multi-stone rings and diamond bands. Although the diamond case was well-lit, the lighting for the store itself was dim, detracting from the sparkle of the diamond when it was pulled from the case. The view through the tops of the glass cases was obscured by Littman's promotional flyers and the Diamond Promotion Service's diamond pyramid display, emphasizing the four C's for customers. A Zales Jewelers location in another Philadelphia-area mall seemed to do a good job of drawing the customers into the store without completely overwhelming them. Unlike most mall jewelers who lease retail space that's narrow and deep, the Zales location maximized its storefront by leasing a space that is wide and shallow. Bridal selections were located in a special section to the side of the store, far enough into the space to eliminate the majority of the mall noise, but not so deeply entrenched that the customer feels like he or she is trapped in the back room. The lighting in the cases was crisp, as was the lighting in the store itself, highlighting the sparkle of the diamond when it emerged from the case for the first time. The Zales cases had just the right amount of merchandise to give customers a variety of styles to choose from, but not so many that the case looked like a jumbled heap of sparkle and yellow gold. The sales associates appeared to be helpful without being aggressive, and the young man who was looking for a ring for the holidays seemed at ease with his surroundings. It looked likely that he would end up purchasing the halfcarat diamond with side stones set in yellow gold that afternoon. Although the bridal jewelry designs looked very similar to those offered at other retailers, the presentation at Zales appeared to be comfortable enough to encourage customers to come back. At both chain jewelers, dominant styles in engagement rings appeared to be multi-stone rings set in yellow gold, many sold with coordinating diamond bands to fit the roundabout line of the engagement ring. Wedding bands were also primarily yellow gold, although two-tone styles seemed to be on the rise. Department Stores Even department stores are differentiating their assortments of bridal, engagement and anniversary jewelry, but few give the category quite the quality and attention that they do at Macy's West. SuperSellers "We have a separate solitaire department," says Rich Hall, vice president of fine jewelry at Macy's West. "We don't carry any bridal sets, like some jewelry chains, but we do have an extensive assortment of bands that can coordinate with our solitaires. This allows the couple flexibility to create a variety of looks." For department stores, credit presents a specific challenge, says Hall. For young couples, it's hard to get credit at Macy's. Hall believes that independent retailers have much more flexibility with credit terms and financing, giving them an automatic advantage when dealing with the young bridal market. "This is the biggest stumbling block we face," Hall says. Keeping this in mind, Macy's West has worked to gear it's bridal selection to the most likely market: first marriages among a slightly older and more affluent clientele as well as the diamond upgrade market. Most of the assortment is higher-ticket merchandise, ideal for the type of shopper that is able to get credit from Macy's. Diamond upgrading is responsible for a large portion of sales at Macy's West. "We sell a tremendous number of replacement rings for customers who have been married for a few years and want to upgrade to a bigger and better ring," says Hall. The majority of engagement rings sold at Macy's West are solitaires that are three-quarters of a carat or larger in size, typically set in yellow gold. The department also does a good business with diamond anniversary bands, also dominated by yellow gold selections. Most of the business at the department store level is in yellow gold, although platinum is starting to make its mark at the more upscale department stores like Macy's West. There are many different approaches to gaining favor with the bridal market, but most retailers agree that the bridal shopper is one that must be targeted and cannot be ignored.
