Cops Say Millionaire Mom Murdered Autistic Son
WARNING: This is one of those stories that will leave your heart heavy and bring tears to your eyes.
What a tragedy. Cops say multimillionaire single mom Gigi Jordan murdered her 8-year-old autistic son Jude by force-feeding him a vast array of prescription pills in Manhattan's tony Peninsula Hotel this past Saturday. She then attempted to off herself but was unsuccessful, and is now in Bellevue Hospital.
Police arrived after investigating e-mails received by a member of Jordan's family in Belgium, detailing Jordan's malicious intent. They broke through a barricaded door to discover Jude with "foam around his mouth" on the bed, "while his babbling, incoherent mother was sitting on the floor." They were surrounded by many prescription pills and empty pill bottles. At this point, the boy has been dead for a day.
Jordan had written a two-page note discussing Jude's "constant pain." She wrote, "I can tell you the only true happy moment in my life was when Jude was born. He was all the love I ever had in my life. He was the only thing that made me feel life was something of beauty, ever." She also alluded that her son had been sexually abused by a cult and added, "I hope Jude is in a better place."
Our expert, clinical psychologist Dr. Michelle Golland, says it's likely Jordan buckled under the weight of her own depression and the stress of raising an autistic child alone:
"Without having treated her, I would say it appears that this was a mother who was severely depressed," says Dr. Golland. "The medical crisis of Jude's diagnosis seems to have been intense and overwhelming. It sounds like she had been trying to 'cure' her son for many years to no avail, which left her hopeless -- the first step toward suicide. Gigi may have believed that if she took the time to tend to her own medical situation, nobody would be able to care for her son; in her twisted, hopeless logic, she came to believe their dying would be a 'solution.' And the fact that both father figures in young Jude's life had been absent for years may have contributed to Gigi's fear that Jude would end up being institutionalized if something were to happen to her. This tragic example shows how important it is for parents to have support when dealing with their children's medical and psychological issues."
Sigh. Such a tragic example indeed.
How sad :(. Parents should never kill their children, they are gifts from god. Iam going to hold my baby alittle closer and give her lots of kisses.
This is just soo sad.. May that child rest in peace. I cant imagine being so helpless to think that was the only help she could get. I feel for this mother and hope she is able to get help. This shouldn't happen but does this needs to be a wake up call to people when their are signs that they need to speak up and reach out, Not point fingers. Im sure she had cried for help.. This is Horrible this poor baby.. This deeply saddens me…
i dont understand people who kill a child then themselves. why dont they just kill themselves? they wont have to deal with the child anymore will they? idiots.
I think it is a shame when they kill the kids.They should get tread the same way.They sould get fix so they cant have kids any more.
This poor mother and son. It is truly a shame that she felt that she couldn't get help for her depression, which can be absolutely debilitating, without abandonng her son to an institution. Were there no family members who could take him on while she was treated, and educated about autism. Apparently she tried in the past to reach out for help by alleging abuse by a cult, but was blown off. I understand how heinous it is to kill a child, no matter at what level of functioning he was operating.
I glad she kill him
This is truly sad. I'm a single mom with 2 autistic boys so I know how difficult it is. It's sad that she wasn't able to get any help with her depression. I know the worrying about what would happen with the child/children if something were to happen to you. It's just a horrible situation and I just wish that she had someone to help her and understand her and her child. What I don't understand is why didn't the family react to the first email that they received, they should have reacted immediately. To that last comment form anonymous you're extremely ignorant, and a cold hearted person!!!!
I can't believe that person saying (I'm glad she kill him) what in the world with you how can you say something like that your sick in the head and a coward you couldn't even leave your name someone should take you out and beat you
I have a hard time feeling sorry for a mother with access to millions of dollars.Many mothers AND fathers deal with disabled children 24/7 with no other options.If she couldn't deal with him there are plenty of loving couples looking for even a disabled child.With her money she could have paid someone to care for him around the clock and found a trust to take care of his future needs while she was still alive & could choose herself.I'm a married mother with both a disabled & normal children.I know it's not easy.But had a father done the same thing he would have gotten life in prison & been called a monster, especially with that kind of money. Yet most here feel as sorry for the mom as for the child she KILLED.When we feel compassion & pity for women like this one we make light of the empathy we should feel for those who are truly helpless & at wits end.Not those who care nothing about anyone but themselves. This woman is nothing but a narcisstic psycho that MURDERED an innocent child & should get life in a forensic maximum security nut house.I hope they take her entire fortune & use it to help mothers and/or fathers that love their children and need help.
Stumbled into this internet site by chance but I'm sure glad I clicked on that link. You actually answered all of the queries I've been dying to answer for some time now. Will actually occur back for much more of this. Thank you so much
oh stop it! This mom was crazy. You wanna see a MOM of a severely autistic child who has kept her sanity over 18 years, despite unbelievable STRESS and crushing disappointment? See you tube videos under search of "severe autism" and then tell us about stress. This family has more stress than anyone could imagine.
Friend just showed me sight. Good article. But when I read part about psychologist saying the mom should've sought help I wanted to puke. Does anyone realize how many times mothers, fathers and siblings of autistic person have sought "professional help" only to come back more empty and hopeless than when they went for counseling? Or therapy? The fact is: parents don't want therapy. They need tangilbe HELP. Like people actually coming to their house to help out. Bring respite and relief. F&&& therapy.
It is absolutely critical families living autism get the help they need. Google youtube video: "Autism: When More Help is Needed"

The Courthouse needs to be renovated, we need an animal shelter, and we need our roads fixed. maybe a new library. We do NOT need new offices for county officials! The county has purchased the old elementary school, which has more than adequate space in it for offices, library, etc....I want our rights back! This is sounding like big government, do what they want, take our rights away....fraudulence and lying from city, to county to state to Federal....line your pockets first, then do what you want when you want. This is about what's right....government of the people, for the people, by the people....not FOR the government. Look out they're trying to do the same as FISD, building all those unnecessary buildings.....Big Sis is watching and doesn't like what she sees....and is FED UP with ALL GOVERNMENT! Vote NO NO NO NO NO NO!!!

I quickly added some designs to my card shop so you can get them in time for Valentine's Day. I'll have better photos taken soon but I just figured you'd want to get them asap! Thanks for the positive feedback <3
I love valentine's day. Not all the superfluous red and pink, (though who doesn't like flowers or chocolate?), but what I like, what valentine's day has always meant to me, is an excuse to find a creative way to tell people in your life that you love them. And I love love.

How about the fact that your have a tail, and had gills during you embryonic development. Some people have full on tails as well as six fingers and toes. Speaking of toes, did you ever look at your feet closely? Have you noticed your toes stem out in pares and then your big toe. Just like your ancestors that had three claw like foot. you ever wonder why you have more teeth than you use and are impacted in the gum far in the back? You ever wonder why men have nipples? Or why are some people born with and extra set of ribs? You need to seriously open you mind to accept that you dont know anything about your past. Ever wonder why all the presidents and members of the royals stem from a few families. Most of with are related. I know you've herd the rumors about the rich families intermarrying, you ever wonder why? Theres nothing far fetched about our race being a cross breed with an extraterrestrial race of shape shifters. Even says it in the bible. The sons of god and the daughters of man, There you have the royal blood line. I would seriously hope you wake up and start catching the bits and pieces of out past that slip through the crack. Our past is a forbidden history that is being kept from us, just look at the egyptian pyramids and the lies they try to feed us about the culture. As for Darwinism, the problem lies at the point where they say the simple cell organism that has no site all of a sudden decides to grow an eye. If it doesn't have site, it doesn't know vision or that spectrum exists, so it cant just decide to grow something it has no idea its use. Yes the strong do survive but that is the progression after we were genetically altered with. The fact remains clear as your third eye the pineal gland in your brain. Why do you think its important for you to keep using fluoride products when we know its a poison? That because it calcifies the pineal gland to the point where you cant use it to communicate with the energy that connects us all together. Dont believe me? get your self some DMT and them comment back.

To Earthangel2012.You are so right. It's important to redicule the subject as much as possible.That way we get the possibility to scare off the average person, who instantly will dismiss the entire subject. All due to the fact, that the 'evidence' are produced by a nutcase.-when you produce not a damn thing...-True...Since I haven't seen or experienced anything in my entire adult life related to this subject, it's hard to produce anything of value.But I still believe, that there's somthing out there. I'm curious about this, so I investigate these sites.Seeing crap like this are NOT the way to get 'normal' fellowminded people on the wagon. This will only scare off the average person.I've seen a lot of valid footages on the net. Hence my curiosity. I've also seen a lot of footages, which shows nothing whatsoever and still we're supposed to see something.One must be extremely carefull, when it comes to so called 'evidence'. PINDZ MEDIA is doing the complete opposite. He wants us to see somthing in everything and that is the same as debunking the subject.Then again: If this subject are for extremists like you, who needs to see everything in anything, then by all means: Keep up the good work.

Georgia football coach Mark Richt offered his early impressions on the Bulldogs' "Dream Team" freshmen class after the team's second preseason practice today.
The one freshmen still hoping to join the team looks like he probably won't.
Linebacker Kent Turene from Lauderdale Lakes, Fla., is waiting to be certified by the NCAA Clearingouse.
"As of right now I'd put a doubtful on it, though, if that helps," Richt said, "on him making it with us this season."
Turene did not report along with the rest of Georgia's highly-rated recruiting class.
"The frustrating part is that he's not here with us now," Richt said. "He wants to be. He's done everything that he could possibly do to be here, but things don't always roll as fast as you want and you don't always get the answer you want. I'm just frustrated for him, really, more than anything."
Some thoughts from Richt on some of the other freshmen:
On the receivers and defensive backs: "I think they're very athletic. I think every DB could be a receiver, a legitimate receiver. They could all run, change directions, have great ball skills. Their body types are very mature already. They don't look freshmen, most of them. There's one or two that maybe could put on a few more pounds of muscle. That will happen in time."
On tailback Isaiah Crowell: "You can just see he's got a lot of really natural running skills. He's got great change of direction and balance and catches the ball extremely well. Just very sudden for a pretty big kid. You can tell he really likes football. You can tell he likes practicing and learning and grinding. Coach (Bryan) McClendon is coaching him just like everybody else, but you don't see Bryan having to follow him around on every single play just to get him lined up and whisper in his ear what they play is. You can at least get the play run and he's letting him practice. He's getting most of it right. That's good sign. And it's early. It's day two of installation, but there's still a lot of information that him and the rest of the guys are trying to process."
On outside linebacker Ray Drew: "He's getting a lot of reps, I know that. We're working two units and sometimes three. When you watch just a bit of pass rush, you see some very good skills." One reason he's getting plenty of reps—starter Cornelius Washington is out with a hamstring injury.
On linebackers in general: "Love 'em. Very athletic. Big. Really good frame on them."
On the offensive line: "I think those guys are the type of guys that will take a little time. There's not many linemen that come out and are ready to start as freshmen. I got a feeling a couple, if not more will be in second-team roles and may have to play this year, so we're going to get them ready as fast as we can. You can see one or two years down the road, they're all going to be really good football players."
On tight end Jay Rome: "Very, very good athlete. Big kid. Soft hands. Looks a little bit like a two-sport athlete. You can tell when he gets in the weight room for a couple of offseason he's really going to be something.

Modelling Tobacco Consumption with a Zero-Inflated Ordered Probit Model
AbstractData for discrete ordered random variables are often characterised by "excessive" zero observations. Traditional ordered probit models have limited capacity in explaining the preponderance of zero observations, especially when the zeros may relate to two distinct situations of non-participation and infrequent participation (or consumption), for example. We propose a zero-inflated ordered probit (ZIOP) model using a double-hurdle combination of a split (probit) model and an ordered probit model which, potentially, relate to different sets of covariates. Monte Carlo results suggest that the new model performs well. Finally, the model is applied to a consumer choice problem of tobacco consumption.

Where can i get parts, the toe strap is broken and i need a replacement?
Member since
Your best bet would be to contact Rome directly. They will be able to tell you which dealer in your area carries replacement parts, or will be able to send them to you directly.
great for the price
Member since
nice park bindings. They have plenty of flex, more adjustability than most bindings, the best ankle padding I've ever had, good toe strap system, metal ratchets and sick looks at a relatively low price. Unfortunately, the plastic ladders feel a bit thin/brittle, the disk covers are screw down instead of snap on and you have to completely unhook the toe strap to get your foot out (on Salomon bindings, you loosen but they stay hooked and just fall out of the way). Rome acknowledged my warranty card by sending me a big die-cut logo sticker...sweet.
Member since
alright, these bindings rock, there light and responsive but the first day out with them was a comp at my home mtn. i broke the little plastic piece that holds the toe strap on and i was screwed for the day... so i sent them back and this site sent me a new pair and they broke again!
i wish they didn't break i was really impressed with them and i wasnt hard on them at all when they broke. i dont recomend these.
390s awesomeo

best binders out there. work awesome with my alibi

These bindings are the best out there, so many ways to fit them to your model and brand of boot. super light-weight and most importantly they look sick. I recommend these bindings for anyone who needs a new set.
Member since
Just rode them for the first time this season and they r sick as sh#$%. They feel so nice on ur feet. way more control. If u got money to spend buy this shit its nice
Like sex!
Red Ron
Member since
These bindings have given me mulitple euphoric riding experiences.. The aluminum metal alloy heelhoop that connects the toe to the highback revolutionizes a world of responsiveness & the glass-filled nylon baseplate keeps the overall binding stifness to a minimum, while the gel fit ankle strap & the conformist toe system cradle your foot like a mother craddles a new born! Bitchin bindings! No questions asked..
Member since
damnnnnn this bindings r sick they have so much feel to them its a deffent buy
Member since
They are a little lighter, the ankle strap is VERY comfortable, and they look better in person than in the pic. Buckles slide smoothly, and they are very adjustable. Best improvement on this binding in my opinion is the toe strap. If you look closely in the picture you can see that they used a different material or pattern (looks like little rectangles), this helps for a comfortable snug fit, more so that previous years. I have always been a Burton binding fan, but these are slowly taking over. I like them much more for the park and freestyle aspect of riding. I think that Burtons are more responsive, but these let you move around more aggressively without reacting too much. They are more forgiving and easier to jump around on. The highback seems to stay out of the way until you lean in to it, or want it to respond. This is great for tweaking and while on rails. A very solid binding, I would highly recommend them.

When Imitation Doesn't Flatter: The Role of Consumer Distinctiveness in Responses to Mimicry
AbstractIn a series of four experiments, the authors examine the implications of one consumer's possession being mimicked by another consumer. The results demonstrate that when distinctiveness concerns are heightened, greater dissociation responses (i.e., possession disposal intentions, recustomization behaviors, and exchange behaviors) arise in response to being mimicked by a similar as opposed to dissimilar other. These effects are driven by threats to distinctiveness. Finally, these effects are mitigated when the imitated possession is nonsymbolic in nature and when a low degree of effort is exerted to initially obtain the possession. Implications for marketers and consumers are discussed.

I have been complaining of late that I need more things to look forward to, and I've been counting movies as big events. I'm relying on summer blockbusters, full of explosions, cheesy jokes, chase scenes, and otherwise bubble-gummy wonders to make up for the "no summer break" portion of the work year.
To this end, when I saw Alyssa Rosenberg's "When the Gun Goes Bang, Bang, Bang" post today about a movie due in August, "The Other Guys," I was reminded of an old habit that I was once in: listing the movies I want to see, getting lists from others, and then trying to check that list off as they're seen.
So, here's my plans for the summer. I know I won't see all of them, and there will be others that aren't on this list that I do see, but here's what caught my eye today:
April 16: Kick-Ass. I am most amused by the girl hero, though the entire premise — regular people trying to behave like superheroes, in a world that doesn't have movie rules — entertains me. This sounds like a perfect popcorn combo movie (shared among equally fun-loving movie folks).
Death at a Funeral. It's unlikely that I'll see this in the theater, though I admit to a certain curiosity, having recently watched the British movie it based on/ripped from. I'm not sure I believe that Chris Rock can step into the quietly outraged (emphasis on quietly) role played by Matthew McFadden, but I might enjoy watching that attempt.
April 23: The Losers. This looks like pure, high-summer fun, a film full of misfits, explosions, and conspiracies. Bonus: Idris Elba. And The Comedian.
May 7: Iron Man 2. I don't know the comics well enough (OK, at all) to be able to cheer for the inclusion of specific characters or villains, but I so, so enjoyed the first one that I'm incredibly happy to have the second one here already. Robert Downey Jr. wise-cracking and saving the world alongside Don Cheadle? Sign me up.
May 14: OK, this might be cheesy, but I kind of want to see Just Wright. I understand I'll be seeing it alone. And probably at the dollar theater.
May 28: Prince of Persia. I had no idea Jake Gyllenhaal was trying to prove he would've made a better Spider-Man, still, but I'll be happy to watch his belated audition tape.
Sex and the City 2. I saw the first one, and it was kind of mindlessly fun, so the second seems within the realm of summer viewing possibilities.
June 11: The A-Team. Just to wash SATC2 out of my hair, I guess,and also because I can think of three guys who will be deeply worried/offended if I don't attend with great enthusiasm.
June 18: Toy Story 3. Hooray!
July 2: The Last Airbender. I don't know anything about this film except that every time there's a new trailer, or a new whisper of a trailer, C watches it like it might reveal the secret of the universe, and has pinned his hopes on M. Night Shyamalan loving his children too much to screw up the film. I have no doubt I'll be going to see this, possibly the first night it opens.
July 9: The Kids are All Right. Well, this breaks the happy-summer-movie mold, but it looks enticing (and also like it might not hit my town's theaters until fall). Julianne Moore and Annette Bening star as partners who each conceived a child through a sperm donor; now, their daughters are grown, and one sister convinces the other they should look for their father. I love Moore and have usually loved Bening's work, so I think this could be quite good.
July 16: I am iffy on both of these, but The Sorcerer's Apprentice and Inception both come out that weekend. Inception should be right up my normal summer alley — it has Christopher Nolan directing and Leonardo DiCaprio acting. But I just don't know enough about it, even after seeing the trailer, to know whether I'm interested.
SA — I think one Nic Cage movie a summer might be enough for me, but I have a feeling C is interested.
July 23: Salt? Probably not, but I might still be convinced.
July 30: The Adjustment Bureau. Matt Damon and Emily Blunt in a world-twisting Philip K. Dick story? Sure, why not.
Get Low. This looks depressing as all hell, but Robert DuVall's character throwing a funeral for himself at Bill Murray's character's funeral home, with Sissy Spacek in there somewhere, makes me want to see this.
I Love You Philip Morris. I may have already seen enough Jim Carrey movies this year (0), but this story — Carrey tries to win back the love of his prison cell mate, Philip Morris, played by Ewan McGregor — sounds bizarre enough to get me to the theater. I'm sure I'll want air conditioning by then.
August 6: The above-mentioned The Other Guys. It's like Mark Wahlberg Talks to Animals, where Animals=Will Ferrell.
August 13: Scott Pilgrim v. The World. Michael Cera battling supervillains to win his girlfriend's love? OK. More popcorn, please!

If there's a silver
lining to the spending cuts in Washington, it's that you'll have a smaller
chance of being audited this year.
The cuts are forcing
thousands of employees at the IRS to be furloughed without pay for up to seven
And that means fewer
auditors. Audits have already been on the decline due to budget cuts at the IRS
over the last few years.
Last year the number of
audits dropped 5 percent to about 1 and a half million.

2.Holiday List of BSNL Bihar Circle.
3.Telephone Directory of Sr. Officers of BSNL Bihar Circle alongwith SSAs Heads.

Click to view details........
congratulations to one and all.
Keep the momentum and start mobilization for the next programmes from 01.10.2014 onwards. We will continue our struggle till we achieve our demands as per the assurance given in March, 2014.
Massive participation reported from Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, UP(E), Karnataka, West Bengal, Kol TD, Punjab, Bihar, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Assam, NE I etc etc. Hundreds of Executives participated in the Dharna at Delhi, Chennai, Banglore, Patna, Pune, Hyderabad, Bhopal, Lucknow, Ludhiana etc.
The massive participation shows the large scale resentment among the Executives in non resolution of the crucial issues of the basic cadres, JTO/JAO, SDE/AO etc like E2, E3 pay scales, promotions, 30% superannuation benefits, CPSU cadre hierarchy etc even after the assurance from management in March, 2014.
Large no of Executives especially young comrades participated in the agitation, irrespective of membership realizing the fact that this struggle is going to decide their future. SNEA, the home of JTOs will never allow its demotion and continue the struggle for the promotion of JTO cadre by way of pay scales, promotions etc.
In TN and CHTD, the Dharna held on 19.09.2014 due to elections. J&K Circle was exempted from demonstration and Dharna as they are fully involved, round the clock, in restoration of the services in J&K.
About 400 comrades participated in the Mass Dharna. Comrades from Punjab, Rajasthan, Haryana, UP(West), Delhi Circle, BSNLCO and MTNL/Delhi participated in the Dharna. CSs of Punjab/Rajasthan/Haryana/UP(West) Circles, Com V K. Thomar, GS/MTNLEA, Com G L Jogi, CHQ President and Com K Sebastin, GS addressed.
Massive participation reported from different parts of the country. Details will be uploaded later.
Dharna will be held tomorrow, on 19.09.2014 in TN and CHTD circles.
b. VC for SDE/ Adhoc DE to DE (Regular) promotion: Out of 3300 VCs, only 1900 VCs received at BSNLCO. Remaining 1400 VCs to be expedited.
c. VC for DE to DGM (Adhoc) promotion: BSNL CO called the VC gain on 27.06.2014 as earlier VC expired.
d. DE (Reg) and DGM promotions are delayed due to the court cases. The 147 seniority case is coming up in Hon Supreme Court on 07.07.2014 and we expect some positive decisions from Hon'ble SC on that day. The list no 6 & 7 case also coming up for final hearing on 22.07.2014 in the Hon SC on priority.
e. VC for JTO to SDE promotion under LDCE quota: The VC of 141 SDEs passed the LDCE in 2008 called again. The current VC as well as the VC status in 2008 also required. Only after issuing their promotion order, the seniority list preparation for 2001-02 year onwards can be started.
1. The CWC resolved to focus fully on the revival of BSNL in the next two yeas keeping in mind the next pay revision for the BSNL Executives due from 01.01.2017. The Management and all the employees should work in tandem to achieve this goal. Efforts should be made to ensure that "pension revision" also becomes one of the terms of reference of the next PRC.
2. The shortage of materials like OF cable, 5 pair cable, EPBTs, Modems and UG cable in Circles and MPLS ports are severely affecting the development and maintenance of the network. BSNLCO should ensure the availability of all essential materials in the field units for operation and maintenance activities.
3. The standard pay scales of E2, E3, -----, E7 should be implemented from 01.01.2007 without further delay. In case pension contribution issue is not getting resolved in a reasonable time, the possibility of extending relief to the JTO/JAOs recruited after 01.01.2007 especially the 2007 and 2008 batch JTOs may be explored.
4. The CWC demanded full 30% superannuation benefit to BSNL Recruited employees as it is a social security measure. The Management should consider the matter sympathetically. CWC decided that Association shall have further discussions with the Management to settle the issue at the earliest.
5. The CWC decided to explore the possibility of extending "Full Pension" option to the Executives and employees recruited directly by BSNL as a onetime measure as EPF pension with "Full Pension" option is equivalent to Govt pension. BSNL Corporate office should take up the matter with EPF authorities at appropriate level. Further the CWC demands centralized EPF payment.
6. The CWC decided to extend total solidarity and support to the agitating comrades of SNEA(I), Kerala Circle and stand with them wholeheartedly and unitedly for seeking settlement of their issues with the CGMT who works with a pre-determined mindset to destabilize the exemplary work culture existing in the Circle which has taken it to the heights of productivity and profitability.
7. Membership verification among Executives' Association needs to be expedited. Meanwhile the issues raised by the Association are to be addressed by the Management to have meaningful membership verification. The subscription deduction through check off system to be demanded in case the membership verification is getting delayed further.
8. CWC outrightly rejected the draft proposal on CPSU cadre hierarchy as it is again linked with the availability of posts and seniority. Further CWC felt that by proposing very stringent attendant conditions, the Management is trying to take away even the minimum promotional avenues, today the Executives are having in BSNL. Time Bound Functional Promotion or CPSU cadre hierarchy is to be pursued in the Joint Committee under the banner of United Forum.
9. For conducting the next All India Conference, 6 Circles namely Andhra Pradesh, Delhi (BSNLCO&NTR), Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan and UP(West) Circles came forward. The CWC directed the concerned Circles to submit the required data by 15th July, 2014 and final decision on the AIC venue will be taken by a Committee comprising of Com GS, Com CHQ Treasurer, Com Arvind Dahiya/AGS(HQ) and Com H Muthu/AGS.
10. CHQ Quota/Building Fund/Legal Fund payment: All defaulting Circles should clear the pending Building fund and Legal fund at the earliest. The CWC discussed the pending CHQ Quota/Building Fund/Legal Fund payment by Gujarat Circle. Circle Secretary, Gujarat Circle assured the CWC that GUJ Circle will pay maximum Building Fund, Legal Fund and all the pending CHQ quota by the first week of July, 2014.
11. Circle Conferences of Punjab, Jharkhand and NE II Circles are to be held within 3 months.
12. The constitution amendment committee submitted its report and the CWC after detailed deliberations approved the proposals. It will be placed before the next AIC for approval.
13. The CWC resolved that the pay anomalies like a) fixation of pay on officiating promotion and pay protection, b) Antedating of increment or implementation of uniform increment date and c) Senior drawing less pay than the Juniors etc are to be settled by BSNL.
14. First TBP after 4 years w.e.f 01.10.2000 to be pursued separately.
15. Many Circles reported very poor quality of Type II modem supplied by M/s Terracom. The range is hardly 2 to 4 meters in many modems supplied. It shall be taken up with BSNLCO.
16. As per the existing rules, immunity is not applicable for promotions. Accordingly for future promotions, immunity will not be extended. Genuine medical cases like cancer, mentally retarded cases, physically handicapped cases etc for the self and family members only should be taken up for retention in the Circle. Association should ensure that long standing Executives in the Circles should not be posted to the non recruiting Circles and nearby Circles to avoid long standing transfers to tenure circles.
17. CWC demands complete uniformity in the BSNLMS RR for promotion to EE cadre in Civil/Electrical/Arch wings like Telecom /Finance wing.
18. CWC decided to further take up the generalization of "notional date of promotion" for the Executives promoted in 2004 in LDCE quota once Hon Supreme Court gives a judgment in this regard.
19. The CWC demands generalization of FR 22(1)(a)(1) fixation benefit to all the Officiating JTOs and Officiating JTOs regularised upto 2007.
20. FR 22(1)(a)(1) fixation benefits and DNI option for the promotions from JTO to SDE made in May, 2000 shall be taken up with BSNL, DoT and DPE.
21. CWC decided to demand "Notional date of promotion" for the JTOs who could not join in March, 2011 promotion order due to stay on promotion orders.
22. CWC decided to repair and occupy the building at Dehradun, Uttarakhand. CHQ decided to provide loan to UKD Circle for the same.
Central Working Committee meeting of SNEA(I) at Jaipur:
The CWC meeting of SNEA(I) held at Jaipur on 26th and 27th May, 2014.
DIR(HR & EB) Sri A. N. Rai addressed the CWC meeting at 04.30 PM on 26.05.2014. DIR(CM) Sri Anupam Srivatava who accepted our invitation and very keen to address the CWC could not attend it due to personal reasons.

Com G L Jogi/CHQ President and Com K Sebastin/GS met Secy/DOT on 15.05.2014 and had a detailed discussion with him on the issue of awarding installation/ maintenance of OF project in North Eastern Circles to be funded by USOF exclusively to BSNL:
This Association reliably learnt that Telecom Commission is mulling the option of inviting bids for execution/maintenance of Optical Fibre project in North Eastern Circles to be funded by USOF exclusively. Generally, govt. so far has had been awarding such projects funded by USOF exclusively to BSNL on nomination basis for very formidable, rational and obvious reasons.
In this connection, on learning about such serious development, we met Secy/DOT to request him to continue with the existing practice of awarding such projects to BSNL alone for very strong and justifiable reasons like BSNL has already made massive capital investments towards laying of telecom infrastructure in remotest areas from where it got no returns and the fact that BSNL has been the highest contributor towards the USOF. Against the backdrop of these facts, we made an impassioned plea to Secy/DOT to award this project also to BSNL. However, our pleading before Secy/DOT evoked very sharp reaction from him because of following reasons.
A) Secy/DOT emphatically stated that BSNL has lost its appetite to execute projects funded by USOF and in this context he made pointed reference to NOFN project which continues to be a virtual non starter as on date and LWE (Left wing extremist) project in CHG, MP, OR, WB MH etc. which also has made no headway. Secy/DOT felt that while the govt. is very keen and is making best efforts to revive BSNL and has been unfailingly awarding USOF funded projects to BSNL, the response from BSNL to execute such projects to say the least has been extremely disappointing and quite tardy in terms of meeting timelines and other important project requirements.
B) Another important fact mentioned by Secy/DOT is that BSNL is under wrong impression that govt. has a compulsion to award such projects to BSNL alone and that there are no takers for execution of such projects. BSNL must dispel this impression and understand that there are "N" numbers of takers for execution of such projects.
C) Secy/DOT conveyed in very clear terms that total lack of enthusiasm and interest on part of BSNL to undertake and execute such projects is driving govt. to consider the option of inviting bids for execution of such projects.
However, from our side, we also apprised in detail Secy/DOT about the constraints that BSNL is also facing in execution of such projects and pleaded with him to give BSNL opportunity to execute this pretigious project in Nort East. Secy/DOT mentioned that BSNL Management must approach DOT and in very clear terms convey its willingness to execute this project on terms and conditions like transfer of Network to BSNL after installation etc and hence BSNL will not get any capital from USOF for execution of this project. Secy/DOT assured that DOT would be always willing to give first preference to BSNL provided BSNL is ready to abide by terms and conditions decided for the project and execute the project within stipulated timelines.
In the meantime Smt Annie Moreas, Member(Finance)/DOT also joined the discussions and she too very clearly indicated that DOT would be always ready and keen to listen to BSNL on such issues.
We also requested Secy/DOT and Member(Finance)/DOT to expeditiously resolve long pending issue of merger of 78.2% IDA with basic in respect of all those having retired from BSNL prior to 10th June 2013. Both Secy/DOT and M(F)/DOT responded very positively and quickly by reiterating that the issue is virtually on the final stages of resolution as far as DOT is concerned and very shortly will be sent to DOE for its concurrence. All the queries raised by DOE in this regard are being responded to by DOT on a very positive note.
a) Promotion from JAO to AO: GM(FP) informed that the reply from DoT is still awaited. However preparatory work is going on but the progress is not good. So far the assessment sheet and details received from five or six Circles only.
b) AO/Sr AO to CAO (Adhoc) promotion: The proposal to divert MT quota of about 165 posts for CAO(Adhoc) promotion is sent to MC for the approval. Once divertion is approved, further acton will be taken.
c) AO/Sr AO/ to CAO (Adhoc) to CAO (Regular) promotion: Necessary action is already initiated for regular promotion:
d) CAO to DGM(Adhoc) promotion: The DPC is over and the minutes are submitted for the approval of competent authority. It is expected that about 160 Executives will be covered by this promotion of which VC for about 25 cases are pending.

Health care costs would rise 235 billion dollars over the next decade;
17 million Americans would lose their current insurance coverage, regardless as to whether they like it or not;
One in every 3 seniors on Medicare Advantage would lose their plans;
19 million Americans would be forced to pay new taxes and fines;
18 million Americans would be put on taxpayer-funded welfare;
Up to 20 percent of Medicare providers would become unprofitable, leaving seniors with less access to and choices for care.
Having plunged Medicare and Medicaid into a financial black hole, liberals now want to do the same to the rest of health care. Within a decade, the Medicare system will be bankrupt. So what is the Obama-Pelosi-Reid solution? Add millions of people to the government health care rolls… decrease the number of health care providers and cut Medicare by 500 billion dollars.
In addition to paving the way toward imposing a European-style single-payer health care system on the American people, ObamaCare, for the first time in our nation's history, will force you to purchase something you may or may not want or need … in this case, government-approved or government-run health insurance.
Here's what Todd Gaziano of the Heritage Foundation writes about the "individual mandate"provision in ObamaCare: "The federal government has never required all Americans to buy any good or service. This is not surprising, because there is nothing in the Constitution that grants Congress that power. And if you poll Americans, they know there is no such power. … The mandate for individuals to buy health insurance is not a regulation of the health care or health insurance markets at all. ... It is a mandate that Americans must engage in commerce. If Congress can do this, they can do anything." And that means anything. Think about that. What is to stop Barack Obama or Congress from forcing you to buy a new green Government Motors Chevy every year, or a lifetime membership in ACORN?
Gaziano outlines an historic truth: "Under our constitutional system of limited and enumerated federal powers, no theory of federal authority can be correct if it has no limits." In response to that sentiment, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama are basically thumbing their noses at us and saying; So what? They've made it clear, by their own words, deeds and actions, that they are not interested in upholding the Constitution, but rather in seizing unlimited government power. For them, everything, including so-called health care reform, becomes a means to a political end... a socialist state. Are you willing to let the United States of America become the USSA … the United Socialist States of America?
You can stop that from happening... you can take a stand. Remember, Senate leaders are planning to hold a final vote any day now. The time to act is now. Help stop Harry Reid's ill-named and poisonous health care "compromise." Send faxes to the politicians in Washington! The American people are tired of being scammed! Let them know that Reid's compromise is not a compromise... it's an abomination!
