Henderson Speaks
The future interviews the past
One of the first projects of HHS is to gather stories from early Henderson residents (1942 to the 1980s). The stories will be used to preserve the history of the area, to enhance library and museum collections, and to provide content for the HHS Website. Stories of Old Henderson will help fulfill the Society's mission and will provide teaching/learning resources for generations of newcomers and school children. Such resources are invaluable in preserving history and for welcoming new residents and their children into the life of the community. The stories might be about the building of the Basic Magnesium Plant, mining stories, the first buildings in town, Henderson's Native American past, Henderson schools, growing up in Henderson, water and scathing heat. Henderson Speaks is hoping to involve schools, museum staff, library staff and community volunteers in gathering and recording the stories of Henderson's older residents before they are lost forever. Please call and our volunteers will answer your questions and schedule you for a pleasant storyteller's experience.
Our next " Henderson Speaks" lecture features Nevada Historians on the topics of:
The Economic Impact of the Henderson industrial plants on Southern Nevada before and during World War II
Labor and Race Relations at the World War II-era BMI Plants
When: Friday, October 11, 2013
Where: CSN-College of Southern Nevada, Henderson
Campus, Caesar J. Caviglia Academic Building
700 College Dr. Henderson, NV 89002

Former Governor and U.S. Senator Richard Bryan
A native Nevadan, Senator Bryan began his legal career in 1964 as a Deputy District Attorney in Clark County (Las Vegas), Nevada. Two years later, he was named Clark County's first Public Defender. Bryan was elected in 1968 to the Nevada State Assembly and then served a second term in 1970. In 1972, he was elected to the State Senate and re-elected in 1976. The former prosecutor won his first statewide election as Nevada's Attorney General where he played a major role in successfully defending Nevada's gaming regulatory structure in the Federal Courts. In 1982, he was elected to the first of two terms as Governor. Under his leadership as Nevada's Governor, economic diversification and the attraction of new businesses to Nevada became a priority. In 1988 he was elected to the first of two terms in the U.S. Senate. He was the only Senate member to simultaneously serve on these U.S. Senate Committees: Finance; Commerce, Science and Transportation; and Banks, Housing and Urban Affairs.

Common cause of Nevada awarded him its 1997 "Ethics in Government Award." U. S. Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid appointed Rocha to the Advisory Committee on the Records of Congress in April 2005, and he was reappointed by Senator Reid, the Majority Leader, in March 2007.
Guy Rocha was honored with the 2007 Award of Merit for Leadership in History by the American Association for State and Local History. Mr. Rocha has published two books and written numerous articles and book reviews. He started publishing his popular "Historical Myth of the Month" column in the Sierra Sage in 1986.

It is difficult to determine the operation time of the laptop battery. The actual operation time depends on how much electricity is required by the device. The screen size, hard disk and other accessories may consume extra electricity and shorten the operation time. The total operation time of the 45N1096 computer battery also depends on the design of the device. Generally, a LENOVO computer battery of a standard volume is designed to drive the computer for more than two hours.
Answer: Generally, the charging of a LENOVO 45N1096 battery begins only when the electricity volume is lower than 95%. Due to existence of natural consumption, the battery consumption is basically the same no matter whether you remove the battery or not while the computer is working. However, we recommend you not to remove the LENOVO Laptop Battery while operating the computer because this prevents the data loss in case of abrupt interruption of the AC supply. If you remove the battery, wrap it into a fresh keeping film and put in a dry and cool place. Remember to perform a complete charging and discharging cycle for the LENOVO 45N1096 battery every month to prevent the battery from losing activity.

Jacks Thomas is the director of the London Book Fair, a position she has held since January 2013. This year's fair features a wide array of speakers and panels, as well as the re-branded digital conference now called Quantum.
The 2016 London Book Fair takes place April 12-14.
I recently spoke with Thomas about how she handled taking over the Fair a few years ago, what she's looking forward to most about this year's, and more.
What have you tried to change since you took the position?
The London Book Fair has been a very successful Fair throughout its 45 year history. It remains a leading international publishing business to business event with the largest rights center in the world.
We all know brilliant content in publishing can cross platforms, cross aligned creative industries and cross borders. The London Book Fair has traditionally been really good at the crossing borders part of this, with 130 countries represented, hosting an important translation rights market, but I wanted to ensure we were equally known as a place to help publishers content cross formats as well.
It's an area I have been keen to foster, in terms of attendance and deal making at the Fair. We have had considerable success bringing people from the aligned creative industries—film, gaming, TV, etc.—into the book fair, particularly by establishing partnerships with BAFTA and UKIE (gaming), among others. I want the book fair to be a one-stop shop for publishers to make deals. This includes bringing in the Children's Media Conference (the top TV rights conference) to do cross-media rights trading in the children's arena. Over 150 television and film professionals coming in to LBF on Thursday specifically to rights trade with publishers.
We've also tried to recognize some of the changing opportunities in reaching consumers, including introducing a brand licensing area to LBF, as well as a dedicated area for video gaming publishers and creators into the book fair, in partnership with Ukie. Last year, we brought in a dedicated research and scholarly conference that is running again this year, alongside a dedicated show floor theatre, for academic STM publishing, The Faculty.
Last year, we launched London Book & Screen Week around the London Book Fair. London Book & Screen Week is the capital's seven-day, city-wide celebration of books and the films, TV programs and virtual worlds they inspire, taking place April 11-17. The Festival, which we produce to coincide with LBF, offers general public all over London the chance to experience the vibrancy and excitement about books and content that is always generated at the Fair—something previously kept for the publishing community only within the B2B Fair. Now it is part of city-wide program of events including discussions, debates, parties and special film showings. With publishing now worth an estimated £4.3bn to the UK economy, the festival draws the spotlight on the critical role books play in our creative industries and the breadth of inspiration they spark.
What was the most difficult challenge when you took over?
When Earls Court (our previous exhibition home) closed just less than two years ago, we consulted with the industry as to where they wanted to go. In consultation, we choose Olympia London and last year was our first year in our new home.
Changing venue for a show as big as LBF is a huge amount of work—making sure that everybody knows about the new venue, then has a good experience when they get there.
But over and above the logistics, the challenge was to ensure that we did not allow changing venues to block all of the innovation that we wanted to deliver so we are constantly improving the Book Fair. It was a tight schedule, but we decided we had to introduce some of the new things in 2014, prior to the disruption of the venue change in 2015.
So I think that managing all aspects of the move and keeping the Book Fair innovative was a huge challenge in my first two year. Let's just say it was mind-focusing!
What about the 2016 London Book Fair are you most looking forward to?
I always look forward to the authors of the day, and we've got fantastic ones this year from Marian Keyes, to Nick Bostrom, Howard Jacobsen, Tracey Chevalier, Jeanette Wintersen to Judith Kerr.
On Wednesday at the Fair, we are celebrating the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's death, something we are calling the LBF "Shakesperience." Shakespeare is an amazing ambassador for what we do at the Book Fair: he's translated into at least 80, and probably 100 languages. His brand would be worth over £1billion if it were commercially owned.
LBF Shakesperience will include a mini Globe Theatre where we're going to have performances of sonnets in seven languages every day, three times a day. We've got Polish, Hindi, Maltese, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese and English.
Another big highlight for me is the fact that Julian Fellowes, creator of "Downton Abbey," has chosen to launch his cross-format, next creative project at the London Book Fair. It's an app that is taking his work back to episodic publishing, so it's a chapter a week released via the Belgravia app, and culminates in a hardback if you choose to read it that way at the end of June. I just think that's exactly what we're talking about at the London Book Fair is all of this choice, all of these opportunities. You can either get your chapter a week, or you can wait for the hardback. That's the beauty of narrative these days.
I'm looking forward to our conference program, highlights of which have got to be the fact that we've got the 31st International Publishers Congress in London, for the second time only in its history. It has an amazing program.
Part of that is also, of course, our Quantum conference on Monday before the Book Fair. Professor Nick Bostrom, a hugely innovative thinker on artificial intelligence, is our author of the day and giving a keynote at the conference. An academic from Oxford seems a million miles away from the day-to-day business of rights trading, but in actual fact it just encapsulates what books are about. Great books share great ideas, and all those ideas trickle into publishing eventually.
Quantum used to be called Publishing for Digital Minds. Why did you decide to rebrand it, and are their any major differences in either the format or the agenda?
Quantum physics is such a familiar term but last autumn I heard a really interesting—if not granular—discussion about how quantum physics underpins so much that we do and see and almost all the technology we us: from mobiles phones to medical lasers to the colors of the rainbow. Indeed a growing body of people believe that this period in human history may be dubbed "the Quantum Age."
I was inspired to draw a connection between the physics and life-enhancing technology being discussed, and our own industry—far-fetched though that may sound. From "smart" bookshops making suggestions to customers' mobiles as they browse, to reader participation storylines, there is a world of innovation enabled by the discoveries of the quantum world.
In this context, we felt that the previous name of our opening conference, Publishing for Digital Minds, was simply too narrow, given that we are living in a post-digital world. Coders and Google analysts are as commonplace as editors and sales directors. The new name, The Quantum Conference, seeks to embrace this new world.
Highlight events of Quantum include keynote speakers Nick Bostrom, Future for Humanity Institute, and Dame Gail Rebuck, Penguin Random House UK. A no doubt fascinating "In Conversation" session between James Daunt, Waterstones, and Stephen Page, Faber and Faber. A case study on the partnerships that made the Mog Christmas campaign a success and fresh industry insights from Nielsen presented by Jo Henry.
In your view, what do you believe are the most challenging issues in book publishing today?
I think if I were a publisher, I would absolutely love all the opportunities that the Quantum Age delivers, in terms of understanding and insight into readers as well as growth of formats that rely, at their route, on creative content. Something publishers and authors are very well placed to fulfill.
That said, I can see huge complexity for publishers in trying to decide where you put your resources, what you focus on and how you keep your staff skilled in the next digital trends.
How do you capture all of those opportunities while also keeping your eye on the fact that many people still want to read their books in print? You need to be producing those books in print while keeping absolutely current about all the other opportunities that are around.
That's why events like London Book Fair and our Quantum Conference are actually more important in a digital age. It is a chance for staff training, for senior leaders to find out what is going on around the world, talk to international colleagues and learn about how other markets are changing.

Glu Mobile Climbs Despite Big Q3 Loss On New CEO, Crowdstar Stake
Shares of mobile gaming pioneers Glu Mobile (GLUU), which produces titles featuring Kim Kardashian, Taylor Swift, and Britney Spears, is rising after hours, even as its third-quarter results missed expectations, on a management shift and new venture.
Glu said it lost 33 cents a share on revenue of $51.4 million. Analysts were expecting the company to lose three cents a share on revenue of $51 million.
Total bookings were $51.3 million, down from $64.4 million in the year ago period, while gross margin turned negative. For the fourth quarter it sees bookings between $202.2 million and $204.2 million.
The company also said that its Chairman and CEO Niccolo de Masiwill transition to executive chair, with Nick Earl, president of its global studios becoming the new head of the company.
Glu said it's also bought a controlling interest in Crowdstar for $45.5 million in cash.
In August, Glu fell after it cut its full-year forecast, and guidance sank the stock after its first-quarter report in May as well.
The shares closed up in regular trading but are down about 48% in the past year.
The stock is up 5.7% to $2.05 in recent trading.

Mr. Brockway defended me during a criminal case and he was both knowledgeable and compassionate in his care of me. He accepted my case, and properly advised me, while keeping me abreast on my case. He was understanding and always took his time in explaining everything and answering my many questions. I am truly grateful for his excellence in defending me.
Posted by S
I hold Mr. Brockway in the highest esteem. I became acquainted with this lawyer years ago while he was trying a capital felony case. Described as one of the 'victims', Mr. Brockway never regarded me as such and looked beyond my experiences treating me with dignity and respect. He never hesitated to take time out of his schedule to answer questions, offer support, advice and in the end, returned to me that sense of self-worth and safety that had long been missing. While the days spent with this lawyer and his team were at times more difficult than the crime itself, I grew from this experience and still continue to glean wisdom and courage from those days. I felt safe in his care. Often he would look at me with concern and ask how I was doing. I would respond by saying I'm 'thinking.' He would then say, "if you are thinking, I need to be thinking that much harder." Even now when I am contemplating something, I do what I call the "Brockway Pace." It's a great way to put things in perspective and burn off nervous energy. The case ended with the outcome we were seeking. However, in events like this there are no winners, not really. If you need someone on your side, Paul Brockway is your best option and will be your fiercest advocate. He was mine, and my life is better for having been under his protection. His skills, talents and concern are greatly appreciated.

Father and son allegedly rapes 12-year-old daughter, sister
Labels: crime
The father was tried for raping his own daughter, while the son, was arraigned for allegedly raping the same girl (his step-sister).
Both the father, a driver, and the son, a trader, live at 4,Ilogbo Street, Ajangbadi, Okokomaiko, a suburb of Lagos, on the Lagos-Badagry Expressway.
The police prosecutor, Clifford Ogu, told the court that the offences were committed between September 2016 and April 2017 at the apartment of the accused.
Mr. Ogu, an inspector, said the 12-year-old girl had been staying with her father and the step-mother following a separation between her mother and the father.

I had a summer fling. I had known him all through high school, but we never talked until we hung out at a mutual friends bon fire once school ended. He was a guy I really liked and it was heartbreaking when the summer ended, we went off to separate colleges, and three weeks later he had a different girlfriend and completely acted like I never existed.
People can make summer flings sound romantic, and they're fun while they last, but once summer ends, so does the relationship, so you just have to make sure you don't get too attached and that the heartbreak will be worth it.00|00|0

The field of this invention relates to milling casing downhole, particularly milling a window using a whipstock in combination with a milling tool run on coiled tubing.
Frequently in downhole operations, an existing wellbore may need to be extended in a deviated manner. Alternatively, even in drilling of a new well, deviations are required to obtain optimum production from the formation. Typically, in order to create such deviated wellbores in a cased opening, a whipstock, which is generally known in the field as a deviation device, is used to direct a mill laterally into the casing for cutting a hole so that the deviated portion of the wellbore can be drilled. Such mills for cutting windows or openings in casing are known and have been employed in a variety of styles to accommodate the window-cutting operation. The mill can be run on rigid tubing or on flexible coiled tubing.
One of the problems encountered in running such mills in combination with whipstocks, particularly with the coiled tubing application, has been that the mill undesirably contacts the whipstock and at times can wedge itself between the still-to-be-cut casing and the whipstock, thereby causing a stall condition in a downhole motor which is driving that mill. Additionally, as the mill comes up to speed and pressure is increased in the coiled tubing to the downhole motor, the coiled tubing tends to elongate or stretch. This may undesirably advance the mill closer to the wedge point between the still-to-be-cut casing and the whipstock, again causing a stall condition. Additionally, contact between the mill and the whipstock causes undesirable damage to the whipstock. Furthermore, the repeated cycling of starting and stopping due to stall conditions makes the cutting structure on the mill wear much more quickly than if there were to continue to be a steady cutting operation.
Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to reduce stalling in mills that are operated through coiled tubing in combination with a downhole motor. It is another objective to prolong the life of the mill and shorten the time necessary to cut the window by giving the mill proper support during the cutting so that it does not encounter the whipstock in a manner which will damage it, thus reducing the tendency to stall due to jamming.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,341,873 illustrates whipstocks and how they can be used downhole and ultimately retrieved. U.S. Pat. No. 5,109,924 illustrates generally the use of a mill or mills to cut a window in a casing.
A support mechanism for a mill, particularly usable with a whipstock and driven by a downhole motor supported by coiled tubing is disclosed. The support mechanism comprises a wearable ring adjacent the cutting structure which, when assembled into the downhole assembly, keeps the rotating blades away from the whipstock face and oriented toward the casing to be cut. As the milling progresses, the support mechanism wears away to allow advancement of the mill into the casing to complete the formation of the window or opening.
FIG. 1 is a sectional elevational view showing a mill in conjunction with a whipstock and locating the wearable ring of the present invention.
FIG. 2 is a close-up of the wearable ring, showing its placement adjacent the cutting structure of the mill.
FIG. 1 illustrates a typical downhole assembly involving a mill 10. The mill 10 is shown in more detail in FIG. 2. A flexible joint 12 supports the mill 10 and is the link between the mill 10 and the mud motor 14. The mud motor 14 is connected to coiled tubing 16, which is inserted from the surface through a tubing string, the lower portion of which is illustrated at 18. Also shown in FIG. 1 is a whipstock 20, which is supported by an anchor 22 in a known manner.
The whipstock 20 is situated and properly oriented within the casing 24. The purpose of the mill 10 is to mill an opening through the casing 24.
As shown in FIG. 1, the whipstock 20 has a guiding surface 26, which defines a taper which approaches a pinch point 28. Well before pinch point 28, the clearance between the guiding surface 26 and the casing 24 becomes sufficiently small enough such that the mill 10 can bog down if the coiled tubing 16 stretches under load.
FIG. 2 illustrates a close-up view of a mill structure illustrating a plurality of blades 30-34. The blades may be inclined as shown in blade 32, with a leading surface having a plurality of tungsten carbide inserts 36, preferably arranged in rows and columns as indicated generally in U.S. Pat. No. 4,796,709 (fully incorporated by reference herein), but other arrangements are within the purview of the invention.
However, the invention is applicable to many different types of mills used in conjunction with whipstocks. Referring again to FIG. 2, a wearable ring 38 is disposed above the blades 30-34. While the FIG. 2 shows three blades, it is within the purview of this invention to use the wearable ring for a wide variety of different mills which can be used in conjunction with whipstocks such as 20. The wearable ring can be made of brass or any other type of wearable material. It should preferably be placed in close proximity to the cutting structure of the mill. In the preferred embodiment, the initial diameter of the wearable ring, as indicated by 40, extends radially outwardly further than the blades 30-34. Because the ring 38 extends further outwardly radially, it serves to protect the cutting structure of the tool as it is tripped downhole through the tubing 18.
The procedure is to place the mill 10 on the guiding surface 26 of the whipstock 20. The assembled components above the ring 38 have a sufficient length and weight so as to give the cutting structure 30-34 of the mill 10 an orientation toward the wall of the casing 24, as shown in FIG. 1. In essence, the ring 38 becomes a fulcrum with the overwhelming weight comprising of the flex joint 12 and the mud motor 14 bearing down and moving toward the guiding surface 26 of whipstock 20. As a result, rotation occurs about the ring 38, putting the cutting structure of the mill 10, which includes blades 30-34, in an angled orientation represented by angle A on FIG. 1. Since the mill 10 has the orientation as shown in FIG. 1 due to the ring 38, the motor 14 can then be brought up to optimum speed and torque without the mill 10 cutting into or hanging up on the whipstock surface 26.
The ring 38, acting as a fulcrum, helps to keep the cutting blades 30-34 away from the guiding surface 26 of the whipstock 20, while at the same time forcing the cutting blades 30-34 toward or against the casing 24 so that the opening is initially cut in the casing 24 as desired, as opposed to the guiding surface 26 of the whipstock 20, which would be undesirable.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that the mill 10 can only advance or bite into the casing 24 at the rate at which the ring 38 is radially worn away. This phenomenon limits the penetration of the cutting elements, such as blades 30-34, into the casing wall 24. In essence, the ring 38 prevents the mill 10 from approaching too close to the pinch point 28 where stalling can occur upon elongation during normal operation of the coiled tubing 16. The ring 38 can be worn by rubbing against the guiding surface 26, as well as the inner wall of the casing 24. It is because ring 38 initially rubs against these surfaces that its advance is limited toward the pinch point 28, thus minimizing stalling when mill 10 first comes to speed and as it cuts through casing 24.
Eventually, the ring 38 wears down to where it no longer extends beyond the outer periphery of the blades 30-34, thus permitting the mill 10 to further advance fully into the opening that has already been started from the onset of the milling activity.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that what has been disclosed is a simple system to shorten the time for drilling an opening in a casing 24, as well as to prolong the useful life of mills such as 10. One of the main advantages of the invention, apart from its simplicity, is that it adjusts to the operating conditions downhole. It acts not only as a fulcrum to direct the cutting structure away from the whipstock 20, but it also limits the rate of penetration into the casing wall until ring 38 has sufficiently worn down. By the time the ring 38 has been sufficiently worn down, the opening created by the mill 10 has gotten well underway and the risk to further contact between the cutting structure, such as blades 30-34, with the guiding surface 26 of the whipstock 20 is greatly reduced. Stalling is also minimized in that the advancement of the mill initially toward the pinch point 28 is restricted by the ring 38. The ring 38 allows the motor 14 to come up to optimum speed and torque delivery while using the weight of the bottomhole assembly to keep the cutting structure away from the guiding surface 26.
Those skilled in the art will appreciate that other bottomhole assemblies can be used, and the invention is not limited to mills that are run only on coiled tubing or any specific structure for the mill used to initially cut or finish off the cutting of a window. Accordingly, the ring concept is adaptable to mills that are driven on rigid tubing to achieve the benefits of protecting the guiding surface 26 of the whipstock 20. While the preferred embodiment of the ring 38 has been illustrated as a solid ring around the body 40 of the mill 10, the structure need not be a continuous structure. All radially spacing structures which can be mounted to the body 40 to serve as a fulcrum, as illustrated in FIG. 1, are intended to be within the purview of the invention. Thus, a series of lugs around the periphery of body 40 which are wearable can also be employed. The invention is as broad as encompassing any spacing structure providing a distancing effect for the cutting structure of the mill during initial cutting which wears during the cutting to allow the mill to further progress to complete the operation.
The foregoing disclosure and description of the invention are illustrative and explanatory thereof, and various changes in the size, shape and materials, as well as in the details of the illustrated construction, may be made without departing from the spirit of the invention.

"Let's get on with it already," said Michael Arone, chief investment strategist at State Street Global Advisors.
"It will cause some challenges to the market but I think that is healthy in context of a normal business cycle," Arone said "It will increase the cost of capital, and flush out some riskier assets in the short term. But that is probably the right thing to do."
A Reuters poll last week suggested it is a very long shot.
The poll showed the median probability of a rate rise provided by economists was about one-in-four and only 6 percent of those surveyed expected the Fed to act, with the majority expecting the Fed to wait until December.
Fed funds futures trading shows that investors are even more skeptical than that, and expect the Fed to stay put until February — more than a year after the central bank raised rates and signaled more would come this year and next.

PM's "get out of jail" card
by Alan Thornhill
What happens now that Malcolm Turnbull has at least the 76 lower house seats that he needs to form majority government?
We can expect to see tight government, as the Prime Minister takes up the reins, to start his fresh three year term.
Not quite as tight, though, as the independent Bob Katter has suggested.
Mr Katter warned, not altogether seriously, that a government with a majority of one, might lose a critical vote, if he left Parliament to attend his mother's funeral, or to respond to a call of nature.
That's not a worry
Australian parliaments, thankfully, have civilised arrangements called "pairing" to deal with exigencies like these.
The Opposition Leader, Bill Shorten, though, did raise as serious matter, when he warned of divisions in the Liberal party, particularly those involving the hard right, which supported Tony Abbott against Malcolm Turnbull, last September.
They have not forgotten or forgiven.
That became clear this week, when one member, Cory Bernardi, sent e-mails to supporters, urging them not to "… allow the political left to keep eroding our values, undermining our culture and diminishing our important institutions."
The ratings agency, Standard and Poors, delivered the biggest challenge Mr Turnbull will face late last week, though, when it put Australia's triple A credit rating on "negative watch."
It cited both uncertainties which then existed about the July 2 election results and high levels of both domestic and international debt.
This means that the agency might well downgrade Australia's presently excellent credit rating, if we don't get those issues under control, over the next two years.
An astute Prime Minister might see it as more than that, too.
A "get out of jail free card" in fact.
Even governments which want to keep their pre-election promises often find it very difficult to do so.
So what could Mr Turnbull do, if he finds himself in that all-too-likely position?
Mr Shorten warned, during that eight week election campaign, that this is no time to be giving big companies $50 billion worth of tax cuts, over 5 years, even if they are to be phased in slowly.
And a report funded by Getup and published just days before the election said big miners and cigarette companies would be among the main winners, from that policy, which Mr Turnbull repeatedly said would create more "jobs and growth.
The miners, perhaps.
The cigarette companies.
So some adjustments can be expected there.
Nick Xenophon might also be in for some disappointment when he comes to Canberra, seeking more money, to protect the jobs of steel workers, in his home State of South Australia.
Mr Turnbull might even be able to convince voters that some restraint in these areas is virtuous, as well as necessary, to avoid extra interest rate pain, for home buyers and others.
If he is astute enough.
Medibank tax statements delayed
by Alan Thornhill
Many Medibank customers will have to wait longer than usual for their annual tax statements.
The health fund's chief, Craig Drummond, said the delay followed a major technology upgrade.
He said the fund is : "….. experiencing a reporting issue which will likely prevent it from providing annual tax statements to a majority of customers by July 15.
Mr Drummond also said the situation is: "is result of customer data migration and acknowledged that it is unacceptable for customers.
He said: ""I sincerely apologise to our customers for this disruption.
"It is important for customers to know their personal data has not been compromised.
"Our team is working around the clock to resolve this issue, and I want to assure customers that our focus is on minimising the impact this will have on them," Mr Drummond said.
Customers wishing to find out more information can go to the website www.medibank.com.au he added.
PM's speech: the lustre and bluster
by Alan Thornhill
Malcolm Turnbull's policy speech yesterday was a polished performance.
He managed to suggest, for example, that something very like the Brexit disaster could well sink Australia, too, if we don't vote the right way on July 2.
Without actually saying so.
So is there a danger, in his message that might not be immediately apparent?
Is the lustre, of his carefully crafted message, for example, brighter than its bluster?
The Prime Minister assured voters, constantly, throughout his speech, that his Coalition has a plan to deal with all eventualities, that might arise over the next three years.
Without saying, too specifically, what it was
He also boasted that some 300,000 new jobs had been created, on his government's watch.
Without mentioning that most of them are part time positions, with pay rates that don't cover grocery bills
This has left many Australians, particularly the young and the old, without a place in Australia's modern work-force
So it might well be worth looking again at just what the Turnbull forces are planning to do, as well as what Mr Turnbull, himself, is actually saying.
Tax cuts, both for Australians on high incomes – and the big corporates – are at the heart of his plan.
It may well be worth remembering, at this point, that much of the vote for Britain's exit, from the EU, came from poor areas, in Britain's north.
That is from the very people who have suffered most, over the years, from the austerity that came with Thatcherism, and its successors.
Eminent economists, like America's Paul Krugman are not impressed by arguments that rising wealth for the rich will produce more jobs for the poor.
Krugman says that's like relying on "the austerity fairy" to overcome unemployment.
However that argument still appeals, even if its strongest appeal is to those who benefit most from it.
Shorten startles Turnbull
by Alan Thornhill
For the first time in the present election campaign, Bill Shorten appears to have seized the initiative.
He did that on Sunday, when he declared that the vote July 2 would be "a referendum on Medicare."
In doing so, he greatly increased his chances of becoming Prime Minister.
But he still has to win 21 seats to do that.
The Prime Minster's response, to this challenge from the Opposition Leader, was to say – very forcefully – that it was based on "a lie."
Malcolm Turnbull told reporters in Sydney today that Labor had been ringing older people in the evening, saying "Medicare is going to be sold off.
"Medicare will be privatised.
" This is the biggest lie of the campaign."
"I want to be very clear. Medicare will never ever be privatised," Mr Turnbull said.
"Every element of Medicare services that is currently being delivered by government will continue to be delivered by government. Full stop," Mr Turnbull said.
Labor strategists remained cool, saying simply that their charges are "biting."
A reporter had asked Mr Turnbull why voters should accept his latest promises on Medicare when his predecessor, Tony Abbott, had not kept his.
The Medicare debate has caught fire, among voters.
Reports in Fairfax newspapers today help to explain why.
The headline on one, in The Sydney Morning Herald, says: 'Narcissistic' surgeons charge cancer patients exorbitant out-of-pocket costs without disclosing
alternatives ."
It quotes chief executive of Cancer Council Australia, Sanchia Aranda, saying : "the most brazen example was robotic surgery for prostate cancer."
She said these cases attracted out-of-pocket fees of between $15,000 to $30,000, even though there is no evidence to suggest robotic surgery offered patients better cancer or functional outcomes than a standard prostatectomy when performed by a surgeon of equal skill.
"We know of patients who are mortgaging their houses because they are being led to believe that these flashy new types of procedures are the best way to have their cancer treated," Professor Aranda added.
PM says Medicare safe
by Alan Thornhill
An industry watchdog did Malcolm Turnbull no favours when it alleged there had been dirty work at the cross-roads as the Federal government moved to sell off Medibank Private.
Its action, just weeks before a Federal election. allowed some to suggest that Medicare, too, might soon be on the auction block.
The Medicare Private sale had been profitable, raising almost $5.7 billion, which the Federal government said would be spent on infrastructure projects.
Now, though, that watchdog, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has accused Medibank of "engaging in misleading conduct," to raise that very tidy sum.
Although the case has yet to be decided, unions have been out in the streets of Australian cities today, handing out brochures warning that the Federal government is now planning to sell Medicare as well.
The Prime Minister responded angrily, rejecting that accusation "absolutely" and accusing Labor of "frightening" old people, in particular, by telling them "disgraceful lies."
Scare campaigns are not entirely unknown, in Australian elections.
Both sides, at times, have accused their rivals of indulging in them.
This time, though, the tension evident in Mr Turnbull's voice, as he rejected that allegation, showed that he recognises that Medicare might still become a decisive issue, in the present campaign.
Speaking in a radio interview, he said his government would: "absolutely, completely, unequivocally guarantee Medicare will not be privatised – will never be privatised. "
"It is a core government service," he said.
"It will always be provided entirely by the government," the Prime Minister added.
The interviewer, Neil Mitchell, then said: "So you are just selling off the support area?"
Mr Turnbull replied: "It is one of the most disgraceful lies the Labor Party is telling.
"And they have trade union officials ringing up people, selective, they are ringing up in particular older Australians and frightening them with this lie."
" Medicare is a core government service."
"It will always be provided by the government."
"" It will never be privatised," Mr Turnbull said.
Medibank Private sale worries Labor
by Alan Thornhill
Labor says it is "deeply concerned" by allegations that Medibank Private deliberately deceived its members to get a better price, when it was privatised.
The Shadow Minister for Health, Catherine King, said: "While the allegations will be tested in court, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) has accused Medibank of "engaging in misleading conduct, making false or misleading representations and engaging in unconscionable conduct" by failing to tell Medibank members about a decision to limit benefits paid to members for in-hospital pathology and radiology services."
She aslo said: "Labor is particular concerned at the ACCC's allegation that Medibank Private kept consumers in the dark about the change in order to maximise its sale price.
"If proved, this would mean Medibank members were penalised at the benefit of the Federal Government, with Finance Minister Mathias Cormann publicly stating that the sale raised almost $5.7 billion.
Ms King said:"today's events come only months after the newly-privatised Medibank reported a massive increase in profit for the first half of the 2015-16 financial year of $271.7 million, up $100 million or almost 60 per cent in just one year.
She said: "the Abbott- Turnbull Government consistently failed to make the case for the sale of Medibank, and today's ACCC action indicates the privatisation has provided no benefit to either the health system or health insurance policyholders.
And she added: "…today is just another stark reminder of the danger to patients if the Turnbull Government is re-elected and continues to press ahead with its plans to privatise Medicare, putting profits before patients across the entire health system.
"Only a Shorten Labor Government can be trusted to protect Medicare. " Ms King said.
PM warns voters
by Alan Thornhill
The Prime Minister, Malcolm Turnbull, warned today that Australia cannot take its economic success for granted.
Speaking to reporters on Queensland's Sunshine Coast, Mr Turnbull said re-election of his government on July 2 would mean: " More opportunity and more jobs."
"We understand the nature of the times in which we live," the Prime Minister said.
"More competition, more opportunities, greater challenges.
"We recognise that we cannot take our economic success for granted," Mr Turnbull said.
Meanwhile the Opposition Leader, Bill Shorten, said Australians would see shorter waiting times, at the nation' hospitals, if he becomes Prime Minister on July 2.
However a new poll, published today, suggests that Labor is not getting enough support, in marginal electorates, to change the government.
The ReachTEL poll, conducted, in seven marginal seats held by the Coalition, confirms that Labor could remain in opposition, even if it wins a majority of the popular vote, on July 2.
That last happened in 1998, when Kim Beazley led the party.
Mr Turnbull said:". We understand the nature of the times in which we live
" More competition, more opportunities, greater challenges.
"We recognise that we cannot take our economic success for granted.
We need to have a plan.
"We do have a plan.
"Every element of it will deliver stronger economic growth and more jobs," Mr Turnbull said.
However Mr Shorten chose to concentrate on health issues today.
He said a Labor Government would reduce waiting times for elective surgery and emergency departments, invest in hospitals and protect Medicare so Australia has the strong health system we need for the future.
"Labor will also ramp up investment in health care at the frontline – so fewer Australians end up in hospital in the first place," he added.
"All Australians deserve access to the best possible health care when they need it – determined by their Medicare card, not their credit card.
That's why a Shorten Labor Government will restore the National Health Reform Agreement for four years, at the originally agreed funding formula of 50 per cent of growth in costs based on the National Efficient Price, and provide additional support to the States and Territories to reduce waiting times for elective surgery and in public hospital emergency departments," he said.
"This will boost hospital funding by $2 billion more than the Liberals over the next four years, and drive efficiency by funding the States and Territories on the basis of the actual services performed," he added.
Super:Who's missing out?
by Alan Thornhill
So you are young and self-employed, but you've remembered retirement, right?
Well, perhaps.
But there is a special reason for asking that, apparently intrusive, question.
Recent research, by the Association of Superannuation Funds of Australia (ASFA) found that almost one young, self employed Australian in four has no super.
The Association's Chief Executive Officer Pauline Vamos also says it is "extremely concerning" that older Australians, who have been self employed, often have much less money in their superannuation accounts than others, as they approach retirement.
She is urging young self-employed Australians to do a little retirement planning.
Ms Vamos admits that she is also disturbed by another finding that emerged from ASFA's research.
Nearly 10 per cent of the workforce is self-employed and it is currently not compulsory for them to make superannuation contributions.
In the run up to retirement, those who are self-employed and are aged 60-64, have around half the superannuation of employees.
Only 27 per cent of those in their 60s who are self-employed, and soon to reach retirement, have more than $100,000 in superannuation, compared to 50 per cent of employees under the Superannuation Guarantee (SG).
Ms Vamos said that is "extremely concerning."
The research also found that said people with lower-value business assets were also found to be more likely to have lower superannuation balances, or no super at all.
Those with lower-value business assets were also found to be more likely to have lower superannuation balances, or no super at all.
Ms Vamos said many sald many self-employed Austtralians would not have enough money fpr a comfortable retirement
""We encourage all Australians to think about the lifestyle they want in retirement and to setup, and make regular contributions to superannuation,"
she said .
"Business assets such as financial, shares or investment properties are often believed to serve as de-facto superannuation. However many of those who are self-employed do not have significant business or financial assets, and may struggle sustaining the standard of living they are used to when they reach retirement age.

"Superannuation is a purpose built system for the building of retirement savings. Because it is a long-term investment, the earlier you start putting more into super, the more you benefit from the effects of compounding interest. Contributing to super makes for a sound business decision."

While making contributions to super is currently not compulsory for the self-employed, if they do, there are a number of benefits they can potentially claim from the Government, such as bonus co-contributions, she added.
"Now is an opportune time for all, particularly those who are self-employed, to assess where they are in terms of their retirement planning, where they want to get to and how to save enough money to get there," Ms Vamos concluded.

Thank you in advance for attending conferences. I love this time of year because the children are setting their own goals and working toward being more responsible and accountable. They took goal setting seriously and are excited to share them with you.
In math, we are learning many different addition and subtraction mental math strategies. Many of these strategies are introduced in the first and second grade curriculum, so in a sense, we are doing a little bit of "catch up"; however, the conversations are rich and meaningful. We will continue to practice these strategies next week.
Yesterday, your child brought home the first Word Masters list. As I mentioned at Back-to-School Night, all Breck third graders participate in three "meets" that deal with vocabulary words and analogies. We will look at how to use a dictionary to look up the new words and will talk about different strategies to practice the definitions of the words. The work on the words is primarily done at home. At school we will work on the concept of analogies and practice solving analogies in many ways. Each night, the children will have two or three words to learn (you will see this in the planner next week). This helps break down the large task of learning all 25 words at once. As the test gets closer I will send home practice Word Masters tests so that you can see the format and strategize with your child. Please keep the vocabulary list hand and practice the words with your child so (s)he is prepared for the first "meet" on Monday, December 5th. The following two meets will be cumulative, so keep this first list in a safe place so your child can practice these words. We will practice the analogy part here at school.
Next Tuesday, October 11th is our next Community Meeting for the kick-off of our new C.A.R.E. theme, Participation. Your child is encouraged to wear his/her new C.A.R.E. t-shirt with non-uniform pants (jeans, etc.). The shirts will come home today with your child.
Upcoming date to remember: Picture retakes are on Monday, October 17th. Please be sure to send in the old package with your child. Hopefully, your child's picture envelope will arrive soon!
On the horizon: our second field trip is Wednesday, October 19th to Gibbs Farm. This is another all-day trip, complete with sack lunches. Again, it is a non-uniform day for the children and the majority of our time is spent outside. Children should dress appropriately for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes.

Building Bridges
The phrase "build bridges, not walls" has become a popular response to the rhetoric of fear and exclusion that has been dominating our headlines. Our public art and engagement project, "Building Bridges," aims to focus on the very real and positive possibilities when people come together across: race, religion, class, immigration status, gender, sexual orientation, age, ability, nationality, and more.
"Building Bridges" draws on the power of solidarity and creative expression to bring people together and create a bridge across difference.
Please join us in celebrating the bridges that we are already building and in assembling the bridges yet to come. The "Building Bridges" project will emerge over the Fall 2017 semester and will remain a theme throughout the 2017 – 2018 academic year at UMass Amherst. The first component of this project is the installation of two banners in the Fine Arts Center Plaza. We hope that these visual/artistic prompts—the spelling out of the project's name formed with many of the languages spoken on campus—will be a catalytic public art project that launches our efforts.
Join Us: We invite everyone from the campus to participate in ways you find meaningful. Please let us know if you are holding an event, exhibit, lecture and/or dialogue that aligns with our efforts, or if you would like to create one to support the aims of this project. Our goal is to connect this theme with ongoing programming and to serve as an informational hub for related events on campus.
UMass Programs and Departments currently involved: Civic Engagement and Service-Learning (CESL) / College of Education / Center for Multicultural Advancement and Student Success (CMASS) / The Center for Latin American, Caribbean and Latino Studies (CLACLS) / Department of Communication / American Institute of Architects Student Group, UMass Amherst

Carol's Bio
Carol departed from her physical body on December 19, 2011. We celebrate her life in every moment of every day and offer sincere gratitude for the higher consciousness that she shared with us while she was in physical form, and as she continues to do in her spiritual form. Spiritually Carol was able to accomplish significant feats which aided all of humanity by raising the collective consciousness of the population of earth. We miss her physical presence, but still have her teachings, love, and guidance with us... always.
Carol's meditative practice began a number of years ago when she sought respite from severe health issues that were becoming debilitating. This kicked off a series of spiritual awakenings in which she experienced "Oneness" and gained an understanding of the nature of all existence, as well as the true cause of illness and disease. She then began to learn various forms of meditation and healing modalities to gain further healing and learn how to assist others in their healing process.
Carol has been trained in the art of Reiki and became a practitioner in 2005. She then traveled to Louisville, Kentucky to be trained and certified in PEAT (Prime Energy Activation & Transcendence) processing, hoping to assist others along the path of healing and awakening with this ability. PEAT is a form of energy psychology developed by psychologist, Zivorad Slavinski, that works with balancing the polarity of energy to bring about healing. While in Louisville, Carol and Dean had the honor of meeting Carla Rueckert-McCarty and Jim McCarty, two of the three facilitators of The Law of One. Carla recently decided to begin teaching and invited Carol and Dean to participate in a series of Intensives, which have greatly enhanced the meditative practices they practice and teach.
Carol attended several Satori breath workshops that brought her to an awareness of how breathing techniques can heal. She set out to learn more about this type of healing and has studied and experimented with several methods of traditional breathwork and "new thought" techniques. Along the way she studied and experienced The Presence Process, a ten week program of breathwork, combined with awareness exercises that bring about healing and blissful present moment awareness. These methods are now offered in the advanced meditation classes.
Carol's journey through healing has coalesced into a meditative/healing methodology that is straightforward and profound in its ability to bring about healing and transformation. The classes and workshops facilitated by Carol and Dean are the product of a wonderful collaboration of growth within each individual and between the two. Both understand that the "western mind" is one that is rarely taught to sit in silence. In addition to this, many suffer from physical symptoms that can strongly curtail a practice of meditation. The practices they bring to the table offer ways to train the mind to be calm, with the goal of transcending thought altogether. The methods of balancing energy and removing energy blockages allow one to begin healing the physical body so that meditation becomes a joyful and transformational experience.

Shini transforms cutting-edge science into warm-hearted, captivating TV.Most recently, Shini can be seen on BBC1 UK, but she recently spent a couple of years based in Los Angeles, hosting TechKnow for Al Jazeera America. She has always loved reporting on pioneering technology and innovation for a variety of other networks including BBC World News, BBC America, Sky and Discovery.
Shini began her career as a mechanical engineer, completing a Bachelors of Engineering and then an Engineering Doctorate at Brunel University (London) by the age of 24 years old. Shini specialised in fluid dynamics, which allowed her to use computers to 'visualise the invisible'. Using her expertise, Shini could advise engineers on how air would flow over aircraft wings, Formula1 cars and within high-rise buildings, for example.
Shini's passion for innovation is diverse. She has covered technology stories on subjects including food, climate change, space, health and medicine. Shini enjoys discovering and understanding how new technologies work and relaying what she learns to others; its a habit she developed growing-up in a science-focused household. She feels its her duty to pass on her enthusiasm for science, technology, engineering and maths (STEM), particularly to youngsters, as her father did for her. She hopes she can encourage students to follow their own passions and interests, fulfilling their own unique potential.
To build her knowledge and experience in communicating science on a mass scale, Shini gained skills behind the camera too, working for a variety of independent production companies including Oxford Scientific Films, Windfall Films and RGB Digital. Her wide range of career experiences have taught her skills in analytics, rationalisation, researching, producing and post-production; all of which, have proved invaluable to her on-screen presence.
