Mr. ANTHONY made an ineffectual motion-yeas 15, nays 22-to lay on the table the pending motion to recommit with instructions to strike out the words " sinking fund " and " seven per cent." wherever it occurs, and insert the words "Bank of the State of Indiana" and "six per cent."
The motion to recommit was then agreed to.

New Robins boss to step down after "vile, obscene and personal" attack
8:27am Tuesday 15th October 2013 in Non League By Tim Ashton
Carshalton Athletic's new manager Ian Hazel will step down in three weeks time after revealing he was subjected to "vile, obscene and personal abuse" during the 5-0 defeat at Lowestoft on Saturday.
Hazel - who took over the top job when Tommy Williams was sacked earlier this month - has presided over just two games.
But following what he called "disgraceful" scenes last weekend he informed Robins owner Paul Dipre last night (Monday) of his decision to step down after the trip to Margate on November 2 - or sooner if a new manager is found.
The Robins are third from bottom of the Ryman Premier League, with just two wins from 14 games.
A miserable start to the season also saw them crash out of the FA Cup at lower league opposition, and they face a vital FA Trophy trip to Burnham Raiders of the Ryman Division One North this weekend.
However, after seven years at Colston Avenue, including four stints as caremaker manager, Hazel said he has no choice but to walk away.
In a statement on the club's website, he said: "Having been a player, coach, manager and supporter of Carshalton Athletic, I have no choice after being asked to manage the first team to step down after Saturday's disgraceful scenes.
"I will not stand there and listen to the abuse that was aimed at myself on Saturday.
"There was no need for it and it was vile, obscene and personal, and was not very nice - not only for myself but the staff and group of young players we have at the club."
He added: "I do not believe anyone should be subjected to this and I certainly will not just sit there and take it.
"I will however stand in temporary charge for three weeks, to enable the club to find the right person to take the club forward.
"It is a big shame to have made this decision as i feel as an ex-professional footballer, ex-manager of six non-League clubs, ex-Premier League academy coach and UEFA 'A' licence coach, I am sure my experience and knowledge would have only benefited the club long term."
Dipre said: "The club has no choice but to accept his position and I have apologised to Ian on behalf of the club.
"The events of Saturday were unacceptable on every level. There was absolutely no reason for Ian to be the target of anything.
"He was committed to making a success of the first team and just wanted to get on with the job."
He added: "The club wish to stress that the allegations of abuse apply to two individuals, who have been named by on-looking Carshalton fans as those responsible for the alleged abuse. The club will be investigating the incident.
"Ian is, and will remain to be, an integral part of the club. I do hope for the next three games the fans can show Ian the overwhelming support he deserves and enjoys from every part of the club."

Paul Dipre (Club owner) is the real problem; Ian Hazel is just a symptom.

Last night's Road 2 GLORY USA event went off without a hitch as famous trainer Duke Roufus teamed up with GLORY to present yet another Road 2 GLORY USA tournament, this time featuring Lightweight fighters. The tournament saw recognizable names such as Michael Manaquil, Muhsin Corbbrey and Cyrus Washington partake, with Manaquil taking the whole tournament, but it was not without surprises. Troy Sheridan was the breakaway star to emerge as he made it all the way to the Finals defeating Cyrus Washington and Jose Palacios before dropping a tough decision to Manaquil.
Manaquil went through Jameel Massouh and Muhsin Corbbrey before defeating Sheridan in the Finals.

Yesterday at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Shootboxing held its second major event of the year, headlined by a 67kg matchup between fan favorite Hiroki Shishido and DREAM Featherweight champ Hiroyuki Takaya. The rest of the card featured Shootboxing stars RENA, Hiroaki Suzuki, Satoru Suzuki and Naguranchun Masa M16, as well as stars and champions from other promotions like Kosuke Komiyama, Kizaemon Saiga, Mohan Dragon and Lorena Klijn.
In the main event, Hiroki Shishido dominated DREAM champ Hiroyuki Takaya en route to a unanimous decision on scores of 28-26 from all 3 judges. Shishido knocked Takaya down twice in the opening round with a kick to the body and a spinning backfist, securing an early lead. In the 3rd, Shishido was deducted a point for kicking a downed Takaya, but he had already secured such a big lead that the deduction didn't hurt him. Shishido has now won 3 of his last 4 after seeing his career going into a tailspin, where he lost 6 of 7. Takaya hadn't been very active over the last year, fighting on New Year's Eve in 2011 and not fighting in 2012 until again on New Year's Eve, where he lost to Georgi Karakhanyan.
In the co-main event, MA Kick champion Mohan Dragon surprised nearly everyone by knocking out Shootboxing Lightweight champion Hiroaki Suzuki in the 1st round. The fight started well for Suzuki, who was returning to 65kg after fighting in last year's S-Cup, as he knocked Mohan down with a left hook. However, the brawler from Nepal refused to be put away and scored with a massive right hook that sent Suzuki to the ground where he struggled to get up before the count of 10, forcing the ref to stop the fight. The win is huge for Mohan Dragon, who competed and lost in the opening round of the Road to GLORY 65kg tournament. Going in, there was little doubt that this would be a brawl as both men love to throw down and pack significant power. However, the consensus was that Suzuki's defense was better, that he had more power and that he would dominate in every aspect of the fight. The loss is Suzuki's first since 2010 and snaps a 6 fight winning streak.
At 70kg, the crowd-pleasing Satoru Suzuki put his Shootboxing Super Welterweight title on the line against Yuki Sakamoto and it was Sakamoto who came out on top on scores of 50-48, 49-47 and 49-48. The little-known Sakamoto has quietly put together a 14-2 record entirely under the Shootboxing banner and the win will get him a lot of name recognition, as well as matchups with some of Shootboxing's better 70kg fighters or foreign talent. Despite his overwhelming popularity, the results have not been there from the former boxer Suzuki, who is just 2-5 since 2012.
In a 60kg #1 contender's bout, K-1 veteran Kizaemon Saiga took an extension round unanimous decision over Shootboxing Featherweight champion Naguranchun Masa M16 after a majority draw. Saiga's speed was too much, as he got the better of most of the boxing exchanges and Naguranchun wasn't able to abuse the Shootboxing ruleset enough to earn the victory. Saiga improves to 3-0 in the organization and has earned a shot at 60kg champ Akifumi Utagawa. Naguranchun drops his 2nd straight bout after losing to RISE champion Kosuke Komiyama.
Speaking of Kosuke Komiyama, he faced South Korea's Seong Jae Kim, winning a unanimous decision on scores of 30-26 and 30-27(x2). Komiyama got a bit of an easier challenge after taking on Shootboxing champions Naguranchun Masa M16 and Akifumi Utagawa in back to back appearances. He pushes his win streak to 9 and he could probably argue that he is the next challenger to the Shootboxing 60kg belt as well. I'd definitely like to see him fight Saiga, whether there's a belt on the line or not, either under Shootboxing rules or under Krush/RISE rules. Kim splits time between MMA and kickboxing, fighting out of the Gumi MMA gym, home to Korean MMA standout Doo Ho Choi.
Shootboxing prospect MASAYA moved up to 67kg and bounced back from a loss to Kizaemon Saiga with a 2nd round stoppage of Horu Tarai. I'd like to see him face Hiroaki Suzuki next, as his ties with the Cesar Gym mean he won't be leaving Shootboxing for some time.
Going over to the women's side, 3-time Girls S-Cup champion RENA took on highly touted Taiwanese muay thai practitioner Peiling Du. RENA took advantage of her opponent's unfamiliarity to the rules, scoring a few throws early in the fight before finishing it in the 3rd round with a choke. This was RENA's first fight since last year's Girls S-Cup in August, as she was recovering from an injury. It is very possible that her next fight will be her rematch with Erika Kamimura in RISE.
In a 53.5kg fight, Lorena Klijn, the woman who upset Erika Kamimura in last year's Girls S-Cup, returned to Shootboxing, taking a majority decision over Miyo Yoshida on scores of 30-29, 29-28 and 29-29. Klijn competed in last year's S-Cup, drawing tournament co-favorite Erika Kamimura in the quarters, but she hung with Kamimura over the first three rounds, forcing an extension round where she scored a shoot point, ensuring victory. In the semis, she faced 2009 finalist V.V Mei, again going to an extension round, but was on the receiving end of several throws that gave V.V Mei the win. This is a solid win over Yoshida, who has beaten everyone Shootboxing put in front of her except Kamimura and now Klijn.
Finally, in a JKS48 qualifier, 2012 champion MIO moved on to the next round with a over Sayaka Yoshina while 2012 quarterfinalist Yuuki Kiratsu beat 2012 semifinalist Yusa Taichi to advance.

Add a commentFinal Fight 3 took place today in Split, Croatia with a main event of Igor Jurkovic taking on Raul Catinas.
A ton of damage was dished out over the course of the fight between both fighters. Jurkovic showed some improvements in his overall game with added movement that helped him avoid some of Catinas' punch-rushes, as well as effective knees that at some points during the fight were clearly putting Catinas in some discomfort. Catinas appeared to take the first round but Jurkovic hurt him with knees to the body in the second round. The third round seemed like it would decide the fight. Catinas had his moments of landing some big punches in the round but to me, Jurkovic seemed to do more over the course of the round. Jurkovic ended up getting the decision win. Either way, it was a pretty close fight and could have gone to an extra round, or even maybe have gone to Catinas.
Pavel Zhuravlev returned to the ring in Croatia again and had a quick outing against Luca Panto, knocking him out in the first round. Toni Milanovic also rebounded with a win on the prelininary card, taking a unanimous decision over the young rising Dutch fighter Ibrahim El Bouni at 88kg. Full kickboxing results below:

Add a commentEarlier today at Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, former K-1 Heavyweight champion Kyotaro Fujimoto stepped into the ring for his 7th pro boxing bout against another former kickboxer in Fabrice Aurieng. After making the switch to boxing in late 2011, Kyotaro started his career with 5 straight wins including 3 knockouts before challenging Austrailia's Solomon Haumono for the OBPF Heavyweight title this past New Year's Eve. That fight didn't end so well for Kyotaro, who was rocked early in the 5th round, then, while seemingly out on his feet, put away for good with a monstrous right hand. Today, it was Kyotaro handing out the punishment as he knocked Aurieng down four times over the course of 7 rounds before forcing a corner stoppage at 1:11 in the 7th. He came in with an aggressive style and his defense still seems to be a bit shaky, but it was another good showing from the former K-1 champ against a fighter with a lot of fight experience, although Aurieng's boxing experience is about the same as Kyotaro's. Clearly, he has a long way to go before challenging some of boxing's top heavyweights and his management would probably be smart to put him in with some of the less powerful punchers in the division to get him some rounds and help him improve his defense. However, Kyotaro has shown good power, improved footwork and a solid chin on top of his kickboxing experience, so there's no reason that, with some polishing and a couple more years, he can't be a viable contender in a depleted Heavyweight landscape.

Add a commentMarch was a huge month for Japanese kickboxing, with two Rajadamnern Stadium title fights, the Road to Glory 65kg tournament and big cards from RISE and Krush. This post will recap all of March's kickboxing and muay thai action from the past month.
March 3rd: Krush Ignition 2013 vol.1 and 2
Krush's series of smaller shows, previously known as Krush-EX, kicked off in March with a day-night double header. The main event only lasted 2:19, but was a wild affair with 2012 Youth GP semifinalist Daizo Sasaki knocking down prospect Minoru Kimura. However it was Kimura who came out on top, dropping Sasaki 3 times en route to a stoppage and giving him his third straight stoppage win after a pair of losses, which seem to have reenergized him. The co-main event saw Masanobu Goto rebound from a loss to Keiji Ozaki with a 1st round KO of Atsushi Ogata, who has proved to be little more than a punching bag since an upset win over Toshiki Taniyama. Ryuma Tobe returned to action after a 10 month layoff, knocking out Hiroshi Kamata in the 3rd round.
Tenkaichi 65
While the main event was an MMA fight, the main kickboxing attraction saw Legend 63kg champion Kouki Nakamura stop Masataka Maeda in the 1st round. Nakamura has fought on Big Bang cards before, losing to Koya Urabe and Naoki, and could find himself in Krush or RISE if he continues to dominate lower level competition.
March 10th: Road to GLORY Japan -65kg SLAM
The most stacked weekend of the month was headlined by GLORY's first Road to GLORY Japan event. The quarterfinals saw Zen Fujita stop Riki Matsuoka, Yuki beat Mohan Dragon, Masaaki Noiri get by HIROYA for a 3rd time and Yukihiro Komiya score an upset over Ryuji Kajiwara in a brawl. The semifinals saw Yuki use his signature low kicks to stop Zen Fujita while Noiri got by Komiya. In the finals, Noiri turned it on and dropped Yuki six times over the course of two rounds, ultimately stopping him with a brutal knockout and earning himself a spot in GLORY's 65kg world tournament in May. The event also featured a big superfight between Krush champ Hirotaka Urabe and WPMF champ SHIGERU in what was one of the best fights of the night. After three even rounds, Urabe opened up a nasty cut over SHIGERU's eye with a flying knee in the extension round, forcing a doctor stoppage. Full recap here.
SNKA: Magnum 31
This event featured two Rajadamnern Stadium title fights as Hiroki Ishii defended his 140lb title while Bantamweight champ Manasak Pinsinchai defended his strap against Mutsuki Ebata. Despite facing his second straight undersized opponent, Ishii was dropped in the 2nd round by an elbow and, despite recovering, finished in the 4th round by Aikpikart Mor Krongthepthonburi, who claimed Ishii's Raja title. In the co-main event, Manasak dominated Ebata in every aspect of the fight for the first four rounds and fended off a strong charge from Ebata in the final round, defending his title on foreign soil for the first time. Also on the card was 2010 K-1 Koshien champ Shohei Hareyama bouncing back from a loss to Shota Saenchaigym with a with a unanimous decision over Haruki. NJKF Welterweight Taeyeon was also on the card and despite impressing over the past year, he was knocked out in the 1st round by Shota Otsuki.
REALDEAL Gym's 32nd event was headlined by a rematch between one of their top prospects and RISING Rookies Cup 70kg winner Ryota Toyoshima and Akio Kishima. Toyoshima won their first bout, but this fight couldn't have ended differently as Kishima landed with a big head kick in the 1st round that put Toyoshima to sleep.

December 16, 2010
WASHINGTON, DC - The U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom (USCIRF) today condemned the terrorist attack of December 14 against worshippers at a mosque in Chabahar, Iran, and similar attacks in Iraq, on the eve of the Shia Muslim festival of Ashura and called on governments in the region to be especially vigilant in protecting all religious worship during this holiday season.
"This is the latest of a long string of despicable attacks launched by the forces of extremism and intolerance against innocent religious worshippers in the region," said Leonard Leo, USCIRF chair. "From Ashura to Christmas, public religious observances during this time of year continue to provide targets for religiously motivated violence in the Middle East and other parts of the world. We strongly urge greater protection for worshippers during this special season."
Similar violence has struck Ashura celebrations in neighboring Iraq this year. Over the past few days, several attacks have targeted Shia pilgrims in Iraq, including a roadside bomb in Baghdad on Tuesday that killed at least 39. During last year's Ashura observance in Iraq, a series of bombings killed at least 19 individuals and injured more than 100. A recent wave of attacks against Christians in Iraq, including the October 31 attack on Baghdad's Our Lady of Salvation Church, also has heightened concern about the prospect for escalating attacks as the Christmas holiday approaches.
The Ashura holiday commemorates the death of Imam Hussein in 680 A.D.

Ringo Starr Movies
Fresh from a nondescript Liverpudlian musical group known as Rory Storme and the Hurricanes, Ringo Starr made the quantum leap to superstardom in 1962 when he replaced Pete Best as drummer for the burgeoning Beatles. Starr was regarded by many music aficionados as the least creative of the foursome, though he may well have enjoyed the largest fan following -- especially among young ladies who felt the urge to "mother" the diminutive Mr. Starr (though he appeared to be the baby of the group, Ringo was in fact the oldest of the Fab Four). In the Beatles' first two films,
A Hard Day's Night
(1964) and
(1965), most of the comedy material went to Ringo, whose Chaplinesque demeanor and droll, deadpan dialogue delivery paid off in big laughs. Upon the group's breakup in 1970, it was Ringo who fared best as a solo screen actor. He had already brightened up the dull proceedings of
(1968) and
The Magic Christian
(1970); after the Beatles' split, he was seen to good advantage as the Pope in Ken Russell's
(1975), as one of Mae West's bewildered amours in
(1978) and as a bumbling Cro-Magnon in
(1979), in which he co-starred with his second wife, Barbara Bach. In 1973, Ringo produced the bizarre horror movie spoof
Son of Dracula
, appearing onscreen with fellow rock icon Harry Nilsson. A big draw all over again in the 1980s thanks to his All-Star Band tours, Ringo Starr remains a most welcome, if infrequent TV guest star; he has also shown up in several entertaining commercials, including a 1995 Pizza Hut spot in which he co-starred with ex-Monkees Davy Jones, Micky Dolenz, and Peter Tork. Ringo continued to record music and often appeared in music documentaries, not all of which were about the Beatles. He made memorable contributions to both Who Is Harry Nilsson (And Why Is Everybody Talkin' About Him)? as well as George Harrison: Living In the Material World. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Both as a member of the Beatles and as a solo artist, George Harrison was one of the best loved and most influential musicians of his generation, and when he died November 29, 2001, after a long battle with cancer, it was a tremendous blow to the many great artists who were his friends and collaborators. A year to the day after his passing, a handful of pop music royalty who had known and worked with Harrison staged a special concert at London's Royal Albert Hall to play his music and honor his art and memory. Concert for George is a documentary which presents highlights from the Harrison memorial concert, featuring performances by Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, Ringo Starr, Tom Petty and the Heartberakers, Jeff Lynne, Billy Preston, Jools Holland, Sam Brown, and Joe Brown.

Fast and Furious gun running scandal
Eric Holder, Employee of the Year
By Guest Column Hillary Duke (Bio and Archives) Monday, June 25, 2012 Comments at bottom of page | Print friendly | Subscribe | Email Us |
Eric Holder should get the Employee of the Year Award. Never has an employee been such a puppet and shield for his boss as is Holder.
One has to assume that the President is, in fact, the boss. So to further that assumption, Holder's actions must be known, sanctioned and even ordered by his boss.
These two, in many instances - especially regarding the Fast and Furious gun running story- are arrogantly thumbing their noses at Congress and the American people. Thank goodness Congress is pursuing answers as to who knew what and when did they know it. Congress went after Roger Clemens - twice. Hopefully, it will be no less vigilant in this case.
The games being played would make the public think that Holder and the Department of Justice are guilty of some wrong doing. On top of refusal to share the documents, then lying to Darrel Issa that he would produce them, now he has an Executive Order protecting said documents.
There must be some serious missteps to cover and damaging information to hide. And remember, people, this is from an administration that promised transparency.

Stock Futures Rise After Alcoa Surprise
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- Stock futures were pointing to a break from five days of losses in the benchmark indices after Alcoa(AA) ushered in earnings season with a surprise profit.
In the single-currency eurozone bloc, Spanish bond yields were stabilizing. The markets were on high alert Tuesday, as yields spiked amid a warning by Spain that its banks may need more capital if the economy there deteriorates further.
Futures for the Dow Jones Industrial Average were popping 83 points, or 107.1 points above fair value, at 12,763. Futures for the S&P 500 were advancing 10.4 points, or 13.3 points above fair value, at 1368. Futures for the Nasdaq were adding 18.5 points, or 24.2 points above fair value, at 2716.
Stocks sustained deep losses Tuesday with eurozone worries once again front and center amid growing trepidation over Spain's economic stability.
Alcoa, the aluminum giant, posted a surprise quarterly profit in after the markets closed Tuesday. The first Dow component to report its results each quarter posted first-quarter earnings from continuing operations of $94 million, or 10 cents a share, on revenue of $6.01 billion. The average estimate of analysts polled by Thomson Reuters was for a loss of 4 cents a share on revenue of $5.77 billion.
The company attributed the better-than-expected results to "strong productivity improvements across all businesses, higher realized prices for aluminum, and improved volume and mix." Alcoa also reaffirmed its outlook for 7% growth in global aluminum demand in 2012.
Both Spanish and Italian bond yields were easing Wednesday as the European stock markets regained some composure after their worst one-day drop in more than a month Tuesday. It was the first day of trading after a four-day Easter holiday weekend.
London's FTSE was rising 0.6% and Germany's DAX was gaining 1.2%.
European Union and Spanish officials have been trying to calm the markets by insisting that Spain's economy will not be brought to its knees with the phase-in of austerity measures and won't be next in line to seek money from the strained eurozone bailout fund.
"We have a government in Spain that has taken very strong deficit measures," Benoit Coeure, a European Central Bank executive board member said in a speech in Paris, according to Bloomberg. "All this takes time. The political will is enormous. This is what leads me to say the market conditions are not justified."
"Will the ECB intervene? We have an instrument, the securities markets program, which hasn't been used recently but still exists."
Elsewhere, Japan's Nikkei Average finished lower by 0.8% and Hong Kong's Hang Seng index fell 1.1%.
A tsunami watch was issued Wednesday across the Indian Ocean region after an earthquake, initially measured at 8.9, struck under the sea off the Indonesian province of Aceh. The earthquake quake was felt as far away as Singapore, Thailand, Bangladesh, Malaysia and India, according to reports.

Harry Redknapp gets hit in head with ball, QPR promptly concedes equalizer
Poor Harry. He just can't stay out of the way from comical incidents at his expense.
On Saturday, with his QPR side up 2-1 at Millwall, a fan tried to throw a ball back onto the pitch, but hit Redknapp in the head instead. As you can see, Harry was none too pleased about this stunt, and began cursing out the fan.
Those sly Millwall hooligans, always up to some mischief! They must've known how much I hate getting hit by balls
Compounding Harry's headache, QPR promptly conceded the slim lead just seconds later (while Redknapp was still giving it to the fan), and in stoppage time no less.
He shouldn't stay too mad for too long, considering QPR are still unbeaten in Championship play. Let's just hope the knock to the head doesn't stop Harry from churning out his next autobiography.

2013 NFL Draft Prospect Scouting Report:
Matt Elam, SS, Florida
Elam can work as either a strong or free safety. Not only can he stack the box and provide excellent run support, he's a natural in coverage. Really looks to lay the wood on every play. Could wrap up better with his arms, though. Seals the edge well when coming down into the box. Very passionate teammate, lets his emotions fly.
Sometimes caught watching the eyes of the quarterback. Will need to show he is fast enough to cover a deep half. Elam forced a huge fumble downfield during Florida's upset over LSU, really illustrating his high intensity. Not a natural ball hawk and needs to look for the ball more often rather than making the big hit.
He is athletic enough to cover tight ends; taller receivers may cause issues because he is only 5'10". If he runs well at the combine, he could sneak into the first round.
Elam projects as an early second round pick in the 2013 NFL Draft.

Pretty clay pots: Make your own
As I browsed through the myriad garden catalogs piling up on the horizontal filing cabinet that doubles as my dining room table, looking for interesting new plants and products, the exorbitant price of some new planters really made an impression. A shabby-chic whitewashed terra-cotta pot -- just 6 inches in diameter -- was being peddled for $68. A "handcrafted" painted number (admittedly very pretty) was going for $89. So this puts me in an awkward position: I don't want to spend that much for glorified terra-cotta, but I don't want to settle for ho-hum clay pots, either. What's more, I certainly don't have time to painstakingly handcraft anything, and I'm guessing you don't, either. But Natalie over at natalme.com showed me that I can save a bunch of money and make some real lookers in less than the time it would take to drive to the garden center or boot up my computer for an online shopping spree. Here are my favorites. --JESSICA DAMIANO, firstname.lastname@example.com

To be honest, I've got a couple. I'm just not sure what everyone's cup of tea is when it comes to family dynamics -- I'm huge on power struggles and like an apperance-obessed blue blood families that are falling apart underneath their perfect facade. What type of plots did you have in mind -- for the entire family or even a character?
I agree, not having to bother with discussing who knows who makes the whole process of getting started easier.
Yeah, I've used that format before -- like an original family of supernaturals and it made a great series of roleplays. Plus, the sibling dynamic was amazing -- lots of room for character development because we got to explore the siblings past and everything.
But, yeah. I only stick around because I can't get enough of the Mikealsons. Almost wish Kol and Finn were a bigger deal because that's just two more characters that add fuel to the fire.

The top brass of the Health Services Union (HSU) will hold an urgent telephone conference on Tuesday to discuss the removal of embattled president Michael Williamson.
A group of senior powerbrokers decided on Monday that Mr Williamson must go.
Mr Williamson has been suspended from the union since October last year on full pay following allegations he embezzled union funds.
He denies any wrongdoing.
National secretary Kathy Jackson has called a telephone conference of the union's national executive for 1pm (AEST) on Tuesday to discuss the union's suspension from the peak union body the ACTU, corruption allegations related to the HSU East branch, and Mr Williamson's position.
Mr Williamson has been invited to take part in the talks, she told AAP.
She said the meeting will discuss options for Mr Williamson's removal.
Members of the national executive decided in a telephone conference earlier on Monday that Mr Williamson must resign.
Ms Jackson was excluded from that telephone conference.
HSU acting national president Chris Brown said 10 of the executive's 14 members decided the controversy surrounding Mr Williamson had caused enough damage.
"We have decided that enough is enough and for the good of the union and the members of the union, Mr Williamson must go," Mr Brown told AAP.
He said the national executive had been waiting for the results of various police and other investigations into allegations of fraud and corruption against Mr Williamson.
"But these investigations are dragging on and on, and we just can't wait any longer," he said.
Mr Brown said he had spoken to Mr Williamson on Sunday and he refused to quit his union position.
The executive had now urged Mr Williamson to resign and would wait for his formal response before deciding on its next step.
"Ultimately, we have to operate under the rules of the union," Mr Brown said.
"There are provisions to remove an officer of the union from their position."
Mr Brown says even if the investigations find Mr Williamson has not broken any laws, it is clear some of the "financial governance practices under Mr Williamson's leadership are ethically questionable and have no place in modern unions".
Speculation is mounting that Mr Williamson will be dumped as vice president of Unions NSW on Thursday if he doesn't resign this week.
He is also under pressure to resign from three paid board positions at First State Super, State Government Employees Credit Union and State Water Corporation.
Fair Work Australia (FWA) last week referred a 1100-page investigation report on three former and current HSU officials and another person to the Commonwealth Director of Public Prosecutions (DPP) for consideration of possible criminal charges.
The report listed 181 workplace law and union breaches.
The investigation looked at the alleged misuse of an HSU credit card by former union boss and now Labor MP Craig Thomson for prostitutes and cash withdrawals.
Mr Thomson, the member for the NSW seat of Dobell, says he is innocent and will continue to co-operate with authorities.
But the FWA report is now in legal gridlock, with the DPP saying it doesn't have a brief of evidence or investigation powers.
FWA will table its report in the Senate in a month to six weeks.
The HSU was suspended from the ACTU last week.
ACTU president Ged Kearney said the HSU knew what actions were needed to be reinstated to the peak body.
She declined to comment on whether Mr Williamson's resignation was a step in the right direction.
"I won't provide a running commentary on internal matters for the HSU to deal with, but will be monitoring progress towards these goals," she said.

Spanish director Imanol Uribe examines social upheaval as it relates to a young prepubescent's life in his 2002 coming-of-age tale Carol's Journey. Twelve-year-old Carol (Clara Lago) is accompanying her mother Aurora (Maria Barranco) to Spain to visit her mother's native village as the Civil War is tearing the nation apart. Carol's life is an emotional roller coaster, as her American-born father -- with whom she is extremely close -- has been away for quite some time, serving as a pilot in the International Brigades. Furthermore, Aurora recently received a terminal diagnosis for the illness she has been battling and could die at any moment. As Carol struggles with these issues as well as the acceptance of the new environment she has been cast into, she gains perspective from her gentle grandfather Amalio (Alvaro de Luna) and the village teacher Maruja (Rosa Maria Sarda), as well as an unexpected first love with local boy Tomiche (Juan Jose Ballesta). Adapted from Angel Garcia Roldan's novel A boca de noche, Carol's Journey was an official selection to the 2002 Montreal World Film Festival. ~ Ryan Shriver, Rovi

In this farce, noted Spanish director Joaquin Oristrell sets his sights on a raving sexist and the aftermath of his misdeeds. Ex-athlete and restaurateur Arturo splits his time between training his slow-witted son Arturito in the finer points of speed walking and having an affair with his attractive young cook, Cristal, whom he promises to marry. Of course, the latter activity is hardly popular with his beleaguered wife Paz, who seeks comfort with Cristal's father. When Cristal discovers Arturo and Paz having sex in the kitchen, she plots her revenge by attempting to seduce Arturo's son, until she finds herself falling for the naïve boy. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

El Rey Pasmado
It is 1620, and the young King of Spain (Gabino Diego) is technically a married man, because the great churchmen have conducted a grand public wedding ceremony joining him with a wife. However, as the real rulers of the state, they have perversely kept him completely innocent in matters of sex, so that his marriage remains unconsummated. One day, one of the king's few friends sees to it that he gets to spend a little time with a high-class prostitute (Laura del Sol). In fact, she's so high class that she's the favorite whore for the Grand Inquisitor himself. After the king's initiation into the joys of the female body, he publicly declares his desire to see his queen naked, which scandalizes his prudish and very hypocritical court. The Inquisitor (Fernando Fernan Gomez), when he learns of the boy's meeting with the prostitute, issues two conflicting instructions to two different aides. He sends one to have her arrested and another to warn her to go into hiding. That kind of convoluted behavior is the norm in this humorous historical drama. One of the controversies the court entertains itself with is whether or not the king committed adultery with the prostitute, since it could be alleged that he wasn't quite completely married at the time, according to the legal and theological conventions of the time. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Las Edades De Lulu
The sexual experiences of the insatiable and ever more kinky temptress Lulu (Francesca Neri) are chronicled in this virtually plotless film. In the story, Lulu marries the American professor who first seduced her at age fifteen in a car (of course). She tires of hanging out with him and begins seeking sex of all kinds, hanging out in some pretty seedy places in the process. Along the way, she has intimate encounters with male homosexuals, transvestites, and indulges in a bit of sadomasochism. This film made a big splash in Spain while it was being produced because the first woman who was offered the lead (Angela Molina) quite publicly refused it, for (obvious) reasons that spurred interest in the final production. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

Don Juan, Mi Querido Fantasma
According to Spanish legend, every All Souls Eve, the ghost of the legendary lover Don Juan Tenorio rises up from purgatory to walk the earth in hopes of doing the single good deed necessary for him to be freed from limbo. Unfortunately, though Don Juan has risen 450 times since his death, he has yet to succeed. This erotic Spanish comedy begins on the last day in October in 1990 and chronicles the great lover's latest try. Though times keep changing, Don Juan's distinctive garb does not and he seems out of place on the streets of modern Seville. Luckily, he stumbles across a local production of the play Don Juan. The temperamental actor happens to look just like the real Don Juan and a mix-up leads to the real McCoy playing himself on stage. The other cast members are puzzled at the sudden change in the lead actor from arrogant, egotistical cad to amiable charmer. He goes on to give a stunning performance. Meanwhile, the actor gets his own comeuppance at the hands of a beautiful robber. Things really get to hopping later in the evening at the cast party when both the actor and the real Don are there at the same time. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Michael Marwitz plays a once-famous concert pianist and chess whiz. He compromises his talents by casting his lot with a group of self-destructive druggies and gamblers. Marwitz' new circle of friends effectively ruins his marriage to Victoria Tennant, an English architect. Fool's Mate makes no effort to cheer up its audience, but this sort of fare apparently is what the European film-festival circuit thrives on. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

Las Cosas Del Querer
Dora (Angela Molina) is a music-hall type singer who is more than a bit of a floozy. She goes out with lots of men, has sex with them, and quite appreciates it when they pay for it. She met the piano player Juan (Angel de Andres Lopez) during an air raid at the time of the Spanish Civil War. Later, the two of them meet quite by chance as they are both auditioning for a job with Mario (Manuel Bandera), a gay nightclub owner. Juan is in love with Dora despite her unchanged habit of going out with as many men as possible, and the two of them are also friends with Mario (who also goes out with as many men as possible). There is a nobleman whose attentions Mario at first entertains and then spurns. This prompts the gay nobleman's mother to swear revenge on him for breaking her darling son's heart. ~ Clarke Fountain, Rovi

An American abroad finds herself falling in with an eccentric group of fellow expatriates in Spain in this comedy. Cassandra (Judy Davis) is a nomadic American who finds herself stranded in Spain, where she's found temporary work translating books into English. However, Cassandra's limited translating skills are not bringing home the bacon, so when she encounters a strange woman named Frankie (Marcia Gay Harden), she's willing to help her find a missing friend for a price. Cassandra soon discovers Frankie isn't a strange woman after all -- she's a man living as a woman in preparation for a future sex change operation. It seems Frankie's significant other, a seriously butch lesbian named Ben (Lili Taylor), has walked out on her and taken their daughter Delilah (Courtney Jines) with her; Frankie wants Cassandra to help her find the two of them. As it turns out, Ben has moved on to new pastures, becoming involved with April (Juliette Lewis), a head-in-the-clouds bohemian, and with the help of wealthy art patron and part-time magician Hamilton Kincaid (Christopher Bowen), Ben, April, and Delilah are happily squatting in a spare wing at La Pedrera, Spain's best-known gallery. As Cassandra tries to persuade Ben to reconcile with Frankie, she gets fast-talked by Hamilton into performing as part of his magic act. Gaudi Afternoon was directed by Susan Seidelman; it was her first dramatic theatrical feature since Cookie in 1989, after spending over a decade making documentaries and television projects. ~ Mark Deming, Rovi

A Spanish family's seaside vacation becomes a tense, seriocomic exploration into xenophobia when they stumble across an illegal African immigrant stranded upon the beach after an accident destroyed his raft and left his traveling companion dead. When patriarch Antonio, a somewhat dim-witted taxi driver, sees the miserable Ombasi huddled around a campfire, he is immediately suspicious and frightened for his family. Unfortunately, they lose their car keys and have no choice but to remain with the mysterious foreigner, who speaks no Spanish. At first, the film takes a humorous look at the family's struggle to communicate with the stranger, but then three racist skinheads arrive and the story takes a much darker turn. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Instead of having at least three UNI accounts with separate passwords that expire every 90 days, you will now use a single passphrase that expires after a year. Please note that the change will be made once your current password is changed on or after 4/15/2013. You will need to change it to a longer passphrase and use it to log in to your UNI computer (and labs), your UNI Gmail, WiFi-UNI, e-Learning, e-Business (formerly MEMFIS), etc. The Computer Consulting Center (273-5555) and some local IT support staff are able to reset your passphrase.
Passphrase Requirements
A passphrase must be at least 15 characters long (maximum is 30) and may contain both uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, symbols, and spaces. While there are no specific requirements for different types of characters to be used, a combination of characters is recommended, such as "my 3rd car was a T-bird" or "I love my passphrase". Other important details include:
• Passphrases cannot begin or end with a blank space
• Passphrases can contain US English characters
• Passphrases cannot contain more than three (3) repeated characters (e.g., "aaa" would be accepted, "aaaa" would not)
• Passphrases are case sensitive
• Passphrases cannot be reused
• Passphrases expire after 1 year
Hopefully, while passphrases will require a bit more typing, having a single passphrase for all your UNI accounts and 365 days between changes will be more convenient. Again, this will only affect you the next time your password is changed, beginning in April.
