Magnetic Island, known to its Indigenous inhabitants as Yunbenun, is an island 8 kilometres (5 mi) offshore from the city of Townsville, Queensland, Australia. This 52 km2 (20.1 sq mi) mountainous island in Cleveland Bay has effectively become a suburb of Townsville, with 2,335 permanent residents. The island is accessible from Townsville Breakwater to Nelly Bay Harbour by ferry. There is a large 39.5 km2 (15.3 sq mi) National Park and bird sanctuary and walking tracks can be taken between the populated bays and to a number of tourist destinations such as the World War II forts.
The island is a holiday destination with many hotels and several resorts in operation to cater for all levels of service. The public facilities and infrastructure on the island are managed by the Townsville City Council. The island is part of the electoral district of Townsville in the Legislative Assembly of Queensland. The island is also part of the Federal seat of Herbert, which is represented by Phillip Thompson.
There are five settlements, namely Arcadia, Horseshoe Bay, Nelly Bay, Picnic Bay, and West Point. Geographic features include Rocky Bay, Picnic Bay and Hawkings Point, around its southern extremity, a bay, Nelly Bay to the east-north-east of Rocky Bay, followed by Geoffrey Bay, with Bremner Point as its northern arm. Horseshoe Bay is on the northern coast, and Cockle Bay Reef off the western coast.
The island is called Yunbenun, by the Wulguru, its Indigenous inhabitants. It had a transient population of Aboriginal people well before European exploration of the area. They had seasonal camps at a number of bays, and travelled between the island and mainland using canoes. A number of Aboriginal burial sites are said to exist on the island, but have so far not been identified.Aboriginal middens and cave drawings can still be found in a number of bays around Magnetic Island. Folklore of the local Wulguru tribe recounts a long association with the island and annual migrations to the mainland to avoid expeditions of head-hunters from Papua New Guinea and the Torres Strait, which used the northern trade winds to travel south along the Queensland coast. This head-hunting nearly ceased following the arrival of missionaries, led by Samuel MacFarlane to the Torres Straits in 1871.
The first European accounts of the island come from Captain James Cook who, in 1770, while navigating the Australian coast, called the island Magnetical Island, as a magnetic pull interfering with his vessel's compass appeared to emanate from the island. J.M. Black, funded by Robert Towns, founded the township of Townsville on the mainland nearby. As Townsville developed through the mid-19th century, Magnetic Island became a valuable location for the gathering of hoop pine and granite, the latter of which was used in the reclamation of land for the Port of Townsville, and for construction of Townsville's Customs House.
Picnic Bay was named after its popularity as a picnic spot for European tourists from the mainland during the 19th century, before Magnetic Island was first inhabited by Europeans. In the mid-19th century the island became a popular location for the collection of stone and coral needed for development on the mainland. Even substantial quantities of gold were mined in 1886.
In 1875, the island was set aside as a quarantine station although it took another ten years for the proper facilities to be set up at West Point. In November 1884 the Queensland Government accepted a tender from Leisner and Sparre to construct the quarantine station for £3645. It was only after the tender was accepted that the site on West Point on the north-west was actually chosen.
In 1896 Cyclone Sigma tore across the island and through Townsville.[10] At least 23 lives were lost, many buildings destroyed and boats wrecked. The ketch Lalla Rookh was torn off its moorings and found later on Magnetic Island (She was able to be recovered and continued to carry loads of timber up and down the coast, until being wrecked off the Queensland coast in 1899.)
By 1890 a resort had been started in Picnic Bay. In 1898 Robert Hayles Sr was so impressed by the potential of Magnetic Island he sold his other interests to build a resort on the island. Hayles was responsible for much of the development of Magnetic Island through tourism. In 1901 he started a regular ferry service to the island with his ship the Bee. Twelve months later this ship was wrecked on the rocks at Nobby Head, Picnic Bay, and the Phoenix was built by Hayles' sons to replace the vessel. The Hayles company remained operating services to Magnetic Island with a large number of different vessels until 1988.

Permanent installation at Fernbank Museum of Natural History, Atlanta, GA. Installation designed by Thinkwell Group, Inc.
Northern Nomads were an Amateur Football Club who were formed around 1899. They had no permanent home[hence their name!].
Based originally in Manchester they played at the Manchester Athletic Club[MAC] in Fallowfield but for whatever reasons they moved between 1909-1911 and found themselves playing their "Home" games at Prenton Park the home also of Tranmere Rovers. Nomads by name and Nomads by nature, they have now moved on and back closer to their roots by parking up at the "Eccles Boro FC" ground at Salford in Manchester for the start of the 1913-14 Season.
The fixture list will show the opening match of the season versus Manchester United with this being against United's Reserve X1.
Amongst the list of Vice Presidents/Life Long members there is a Harold P. Hardman and for anyone who is not familiar with H.P. Hardman his brief story is he played for Worsley Wanderers in 1897, Chorlton Cum Hardy in 1898, Northern Nomads in 1899, Blackpool 1900 until 1903, then onto Everton where he won an FA Cup Winners Medal in 1906 and got to the Final with Everton again in 1907 but was a runner Up. He then left Everton and played just 4 games for Manchester United in 1908-09, left in January 1909 to go to Bradford City and then moved to Stoke in February 1910.
Harold played in the 1908 Olympic Games in London winning a Gold Medal in the defeat of Denmark in the Final and made 4 appearances for England between 1905-1908.
All the time he played he did so as an Amateur.
Finally when he signed up to play for Stoke he was appointed a Director of Manchester United where he stayed on the board until 1951 when he was appointed the Chairmen and held this honour until he passed away in 1965.
During his playing days for all the various League Club's and his ultimate devotion to Manchester United-he continued to play for the Nomads as this was his second "love".
It is a great possibility that this members card was originally belonging to Harold.
Please visit on this site the section devoted to Harold P. Hardman where you can see his 1906 English Cup Final Winners Medal.
Harold was only one of 2 men who have EVER won an F.A. Cup Winners Gold Medal and an Olympic Gold Medal.
Sierra Pacific announces closure of Susanville Mill
By Shayla Ashmore
News Editor
Sierra Pacific Industries announced the permanent closure of its Susanville sawmill last week due to a serious log shortage. Sierra Pacific spokesman Ed Bond said all employees would get 60-days notice before the mill is closed and dismantled sometime during the first three months of 2004. Employees will receive the notice once an exact closure date is set.
Bond said current employees will be asked if they would like to transfer to another Sierra Pacific facility, and if so where.
"And we will attempt to accommodate those transfers," he said on Tuesday, Dec. 16.
Bond said George Emmerson, SPI's vice president of sales and operations, came to Susanville personally to announce the closure to mill crews.
"This is one of the most difficult things the company has had to do," Bond said of the meeting with employees.
"Someone might consider this as a terrible time - before the holidays - to be telling people this," Bond said. "Well, there's no good time to tell people this and we felt that if this is going to happen, we'd already made the decision that they should know so they can plan accordingly. It wouldn't be right if someone went out and a bought a new car or signed up for a new home or something with the prospect of not having a job there."
SPI officials only made the decision to close the mill on Thursday, Dec. 11 and employees were notified as soon as possible, he said.
"We wanted to minimize the heartache of speculation and uncertainty for the families and move forward," an SPI press release issued late on Monday, Dec. 15 quoted Bond.
Company officials cited the loss of Forest Service timber, unfair competition from states with fewer environmental regulations and foreign imports as the reasons behind the difficult decision. In the press release, SPI pointed out timber sales from the Lassen National Forest fell from 108 million board feet in 1990 to 17.9 million in 2002.
"That mill has been designed to cut higher grade logs," Bond said. "And even with the Healthy Forest initiative and the Quincy Library Group programs, why, the types of logs that would be coming off of those from the Forest Service would not be the higher grade logs that would be necessary for that mill."

Henån is home to approximately 2,000 permanent year-round residents with a significant increase of summer residents who come from the nearby towns and cities to stay in their summer cottages, which frequently are passed down for generations.
In 1850, Henån became one of the first swimming resorts in Sweden where people from Gothenburg, Alingsås, and other inland cities and towns came to stay with locals to enjoy the warm summer waters of the sea. Later hotels and hostels were built and saw the town of Henån grow.
There is a magnificent boat-building tradition on Henån which still lives on amongst the residents. While most of the smaller traditional boat building shops have since long closed down, the traditional craft has turned out some of the most spectacular and beautiful yacht manufacturers in the world. With brands like Najad, Hallberg-Rassy, Malö, and Regina af Vindö, the craftsmanship lives on.
To ensure the skills are passed on to new generation, Henån is home to one of the most reputable boat building schools in Scandinavia. Orust Båtbyggarskola is a college program with a focus on boat building.

“Pork: Eat it, Don’t Spend it” was the theme of a bipartisan barbeque pork lunch hosted today by U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill and Republican Senator Jeff Flake of Arizona, to discuss the introduction of their bill to make permanent the temporary moratorium on congressional earmarks that McCaskill helped put into place in 2010.
At the lunch, which featured Arthur Bryant’s original Kansas City barbeque sauce and special guest former Republican Senator Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, the Senators focused on recent hearings in the House of Representatives to explore lifting Congress’ self-imposed, temporary ban on the practice of earmarking. McCaskill and Flake’s Earmark Elimination Act would permanently ban the practice.
“Earmarks are the Washington swamp creature that just never seems to die—emerging from the lower depths every few years in an effort to waste taxpayer dollars on politicians’ pet projects,” said McCaskill, who has never requested an earmark and has been the leading Democratic voice opposing them. “Our bipartisan bill would ban their return by permanently ending the practice of pork-barrel patronage so we can ensure Missourians’ taxpayer dollars are protected, and projects are prioritized on merit.”
“It’s time to stick a fork in congressional pork with a permanent ban on earmarking,” said Flake. “Republicans were beaten like a borrowed mule in the 2006 elections largely because of the corruption associated with earmarks. Let’s not test the voters again by leaving the door open for a return to the pork barrel politics that sent members of Congress to prison and saddled taxpayers with a bridge to nowhere, a teapot museum, and countless other wasteful pet projects.”
For years, the earmarking process was notorious for its secrecy and lack of oversight or accountability, with funding for politicians' pet projects often awarded based on political influence instead of on merit. McCaskill’s legislation would expand the ongoing temporary moratorium on earmarks to a permanent ban. Specifically, the legislation would ban all earmarks, and define earmarks as any congressionally directed spending item, limited tax benefit, or limited tariff benefit.
McCaskill, the Senate’s leading Democratic opponent of earmarking, has led the fight to permanently ban earmarks from the legislative process. In 2010, McCaskill worked with bipartisan colleagues to put in place the current moratorium on earmarks. Additionally, a provision included in a recent highway bill, based on legislation McCaskill introduced with Senator Flake, is allowing Missouri to claw back more than $72 million in previously unspent earmarked funds that would never have otherwise been used—giving the state the resources to spend on critically needed transportation and infrastructure projects within a 50-mile radius of the project site of the original earmark.

Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif on Monday praised the services of Saima Saleem, the country’s first blind civil servant who is working at Pakistan’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations at Geneva.
The prime minister in an interaction with Saima Saleem, the Second Secretary on Human Rights, during his visit to Switzerland to participate in the World Economic Forum in Davos, paid tribute to the woman diplomat for her courage and dedication.
He lauded the commitment of Saima Saleem, who he said was not deterred by her disability in discharge of her official duties while serving at an important position in Geneva since 2013.
The premier said that the government of Pakistan was committed to empowerment of people with disabilities and encouraged their hard work to help them achieve their ambitions.

Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina - "Gallery 11/07/95": a permanent exhibition space aiming to preserve the memory on Srebrenica tragedy and 8372 persons who tragically lost their lives during the genocide - The Srebrenica massacre, also known as the Srebrenica genocide, was the July 1995 killing of more than 8,000 Bosniaks (Bosnian Muslims), mainly men and boys, in and around the town of Srebrenica during the Bosnian War. The killing was perpetrated by units of the Army of Republika Srpska (VRS) under the command of General Ratko Mladić. The Secretary-General of the United Nations described the mass murder as the worst crime on European soil since the Second World War. A paramilitary unit from Serbia known as the Scorpions, officially part of the Serbian Interior Ministry until 1991, participated in the massacre, along with several hundred Russian and Greek volunteers. In April 1993, the United Nations declared the besieged enclave of Srebrenica in the Drina Valley of north-eastern Bosnia a "safe area" under UN protection. However, in July 1995, the United Nations Protection Force (UNPROFOR), represented on the ground by a 400-strong contingent of Dutch peacekeepers, Dutchbat, did not prevent the town's capture by the VRS and the subsequent massacre. In 2004, in a unanimous ruling on the case of Prosecutor v. Krstić, the Appeals Chamber of the International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia (ICTY), located in The Hague, ruled that the massacre of the enclave's male inhabitants constituted genocide, a crime under international law. The forcible transfer of between 25,000 to 30,000 Bosniak women, children and elderly which accompanied the massacre was found to be confirming evidence of the genocidal intent of members of the VRS Main Staff who orchestrated the massacre. Then in 2005, in a message to the tenth anniversary commemoration of the genocide, the Secretary-General of the United Nations noted that, while blame lay first and foremost with those who planned and carried out the massacre and those who assisted and harboured them, great nations had failed to respond adequately, the UN itself had made serious errors of judgement and the tragedy of Srebrenica would haunt the UN's history forever. Serbia and Montenegro was cleared of direct responsibility for or complicity in the massacre, but was found responsible for not doing enough to prevent the massacre and not prosecuting the responsible, in breach of the Genocide Convention. The Preliminary List of People Missing or Killed in Srebrenica compiled by the Bosnian Federal Commission of Missing Persons contains 8,373 names. As of July 2012, 6,838 genocide victims have been identified through DNA analysis of body parts recovered from mass graves and 6,066 (July 2013) victims have been buried at the Memorial Centre of Potočari. Serbian President Tomislav Nikolić officially apologized for the massacre, although he stopped short of calling it genocide.
