By noon today more than 1,500 had registered for the Anniston Runners Club's premiere event, race director Dennis Dunn said. That's 200 more people than the race's previous participation record of some 1,300 runners in 2010.
"We always talk about, 'wouldn't it be nice to max things out,'" Dunn said Friday as he headed to pick up 80 extra racing bibs that organizers had shipped overnight in the face of record turnout.
The high registration levels also mean that some people who run the Woodstock 5K won't receive commemorative shirts given to participants each year. Officials only ordered 1,500 shirts, and Dunn said all of those were gone by midday today.
He said he expected that would happen after counting up the number of people who had registered on the Internet. When online registration closed Thursday evening, 1,430 people had signed up for the 3.1-mile race.
People can still register for several more hours. The morning registration booth at Wig's Wheels, at Noble and 13th streets, closes at 2 p.m. In-person registration continues at Anniston High School from 5 p.m. until 7.
"This is crazy," Dunn said.

Central European Time
|This article needs additional citations for verification. (November 2013)
Central European Time (CET), used in most parts of the European Union, is a standard time which is 1 hour ahead of Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). The time offset from UTC can be written as +01:00. The same standard time, UTC+01:00, is also known as Middle European Time (MET, German: MEZ) and under other names like Romance Standard Time.[1]
The 15th meridian east is the central axis for UTC+01:00 in the world system of time zones.
As of 2011 all member states of the European Union observe summer time; those that use CET during the winter use Central European Summer Time (CEST), UTC+02:00, daylight saving time in summer.
- 1 Usage
- 2 Discrepancies between official CET and geographical CET
- 2.1 Areas located within UTC+1 longitudes using other time zones
- 2.2 Areas located outside UTC+1 longitudes using UTC+1 time

- 4 References
- 5 External links
Usage in Europe[edit]
- 1890
- The areas of current Hungary start using CET.
- 1891
- The areas of current Czech Republic start using CET.
- 1893
- The German Empire unified its time zones to use CET (MEZ).
- Italy, Malta use CET.
- Austria uses CET.
- 1894
- Switzerland switches from UTC+00:30 to CET
- Liechtenstein introduces CET.
- Denmark adopts CET.
- 1895

- 1900
- Sweden adopts CET.
- 1904
- Luxembourg introduces CET, but leaves 1918.
- 1914
- Albania.
- 1914-1918
- During World War I CET was implemented in all German occupied territories.
- 1920
- Lithuania adopts CET, but rescinds in 1940.
- 1922
- Poland adopts CET.
- 1940
After WWII Monaco, Spain, Andorra and Gibraltar implemented CET.
Portugal used CET in the years 1966–1976 and 1992–1996.
United Kingdom[edit]
The time around the world is based on Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) which is roughly synonymous with Greenwich Mean Time (GMT). From late March to late October, clocks in the United Kingdom are put forward by one hour for British Summer Time (BST). Since 1997, most of the European Union aligned with the British standards for BST. Central European Time is thus always one hour ahead of British time.
In 1968 there was a three-year experiment called British Standard Time, when the UK and Ireland experimentally employed British Summer Time (GMT+1) all year round; clocks were put forward in March 1968 and not put back until October 1971.
Central European Summer Time[edit]
The following countries and cities have introduced the use of Central European Summer Time (UTC+02:00) between 1:00 UTC on the last Sunday of March, and 1:00 UTC on the last Sunday of October:
- Albania, regularly since 1975
- Andorra, regularly since 1984
- Austria, regularly since 1980
- Belgium, regularly since 1977 (before in 1916 and till 1940)
- Bosnia and Herzegovina, regularly since 1983
- Croatia, regularly since 1983
- Czech Republic, regularly since 1979
- Denmark (not Greenland and the Faroese Islands), regularly since 1980
- France (metropolitan), regularly since 1976
- Germany, regularly since 1980
- Gibraltar, regularly since 1982
- Hungary, regularly since 1980
- Italy, regularly since 1966
- Liechtenstein
- Luxembourg, regularly since 1977
- Malta, regularly since 1974
- Monaco, regularly since 1976
- Montenegro, regularly since 1983
- Netherlands, regularly since 1977
- Norway, regularly since 1997
- Poland, regularly since 1977
- Republic of Macedonia, regularly since 1983
- San Marino, regularly since 1976
- Serbia, regularly since 1983
- Slovakia, regularly since 1979
- Slovenia, regularly since 1983
- Spain (except the Canary Islands), regularly since 1974
- Sweden, regularly since 1996
- Switzerland, regularly since 1981
- Vatican City, regularly since 1966
Portugal used CEST in the years 1942–1945 (as double DST) and 1993–1995 (as DST).
Other countries[edit]
For other countries see UTC+01:00.
Discrepancies between official CET and geographical CET[edit]
|Legal time vs local mean time
|1 h ± 30 m behind
|0 h ± 30 m
|1 h ± 30 m ahead
|2 h ± 30 m ahead
|3 h ± 30 m ahead
Legal, political and economic, as well as physical or geographical criteria are used in the drawing of time zones so official time zones rarely adhere to meridian lines. The CET time zone, were it drawn by purely geographical terms, would consist of exactly the area between meridians 7°30′ E and 22°30′ E. As a result, there are European locales that despite lying in an area with a "physical" UTC+1 time, actually use another time zone (UTC+2 in particular – there are no "physical" UTC+1 areas that employ UTC). Conversely, there are European areas that have gone for UTC+1, even though their "physical" time zone is UTC (typically), UTC-1 (westernmost Spain), or UTC+2 (e.g. the very easternmost parts of Norway, Sweden, Poland and Serbia). On the other hand, the people in Spain still have all work and meal hours one hour later than France and Germany even if they have the same time zone.[citation needed] Following is a list of such "incongruences":
Historically Gibraltar maintained UTC+1 all year until the opening of the land frontier with Spain in 1982 when it followed its neighbour and introduced CEST.
Areas located within UTC+1 longitudes using other time zones[edit]
Areas between 7°30′ E and 22°30′ E ("physical" UTC+1), all using UTC+2[edit]
- The westernmost part of Greece, including the cities of Patras, Ioannina and the island of Corfu
- The westernmost parts of the Bulgarian provinces of Vidin and Kyustendil
- The westernmost part of Romania, including most of the area of the counties of Caraş-Severin, Timiş (capital Timişoara), Arad, and Bihor, as well as the westernmost tips of the counties of Mehedinţi and Satu Mare
- The westernmost tip of Ukraine, near the border with Hungary and Slovakia, at the Ukrainian Transcarpathian Oblast (Zakarpattia Oblast), essentially comprising the city of Uzhhorod and its environs. (Although CET is used as local, non-official time in Transcarpathia).
- The Russian exclave of Kaliningrad, excluding however its easternmost slice (the city of Nesterov is east of 22°30′ E, but that of Krasnoznamensk is not)
- Western Lithuania, including the cities of Klaipėda, Tauragė, and Telšiai
- Western Latvia, including the cities of Liepāja and Ventspils
- The westernmost parts of the Estonian islands of Saaremaa and Hiiumaa, including the capital of the Saare County, Kuressaare
- The southwestern coast of Finland, including the city of Turku; also the Åland islands (of Finnish jurisdiction) – the Åland islands are the westernmost locale applying EET in the whole of Europe
- The northwesternmost part of Finland, including Kilpisjärvi and Kaaresuvanto.
Areas located outside UTC+1 longitudes using UTC+1 time[edit]
Areas between 22°30′ W and 7°30′ W ("physical" UTC-1)[edit]
- The westernmost part of mainland Spain (Galicia, e.g. the city of A Coruña); Cape Finisterre and nearby points in Galicia, at 9°18′ W, are the westernmost places where CET is applied.
- The Norwegian island of Jan Mayen lies entirely within this area and extends nearly as far west as Cape Finisterre, with its western tip at 9°5′ W and its eastern tip at 7°56′ W.
Areas between 7°30′ W and 7°30′ E ("physical" UTC)[edit]
- Andorra
- Belgium
- France, except for the absolutely easternmost part, in Alsace, incl. Strasbourg and parts of Alpes-Maritimes, and except for Corsica
- The very westernmost part of Germany, incl. the cities of Saarbrücken, Düsseldorf, Cologne, Aachen, and Trier
- The absolutely westernmost part of Italy, incl. the cities of Aosta in Aosta Valley and Cuneo in Piedmont
- Luxembourg
- Monaco
- Netherlands
- The westernmost part of Norway, incl. the cities of Bergen and Stavanger
- Mainland Spain, except for the westernmost part (see above), Balearic Islands, and the African cities of Ceuta and Melilla.
- Gibraltar
- The part of Switzerland west of Bern (inclusive), also incl. cities such as Geneva, Lausanne, and Fribourg
Areas between 22°30′ E and 37°30' E ("physical" UTC+2)[edit]
- The easternmost part of the Republic of Macedonia, including the city of Strumica
- The easternmost part of Serbia, in the Pirot District, including the city of Pirot, and small easternmost parts of Bor District.
- The easternmost tips of Hungary and Slovakia, bordering to the north and south respectively the Ukrainian Transcarpathian Oblast (Zakarpattia Oblast), a bit to the east of Vásárosnamény, Hungary – Uzhhorod, Ukraine (both at 22°18′ E) line
- The easternmost part of Poland, including the cities of Lublin and Białystok
- The northeast of Sweden, in the Norrbotten province, including the cities of Kalix and Haparanda
- The northeast of Norway, lying north of Finland, roughly coinciding with the county of Finnmark; for instance Vadsø, the capital of Finnmark, has a longitude of 29°49′ E. Actually, the easternmost town in Norway, Vardø, lies at 30°51′ E, which is so far east, so as to be east even of the central meridian of EET (UTC+2), i.e. east of Istanbul and Alexandria. The sun reaches its highest point at 10:56 (when not DST).
The Norwegian–Russian border (incl. border passings such as Kirkenes) is the only place where CET (UTC+1/+2) borders Moscow time (UTC+4), resulting in a two hours time change (or three hours in winter) for the passenger crossing that border.
- More so, there exists a "tri-zone" point (where UTC+1, UTC+2, and UTC+4 meet) at the Norway–Finland–Russia tripoint near Nautsi. It is interesting to perform the following mental experiment when looking at this map: Go to the westernmost point of the red area (the Jäniskoski-Niskakoski area); this belongs to Russian jurisdiction, hence the time there is UTC+4 (formerly UTC+3). Then, take a northeastern (NE) direction (that is an eastwards direction); you will soon be crossing into Finnish territory, thus moving to the UTC+2 time zone. Continuing in that direction, you will eventually reach the Finland–Norway border and enter Norway, thus passing into the UTC+1 time zone. So, moving in a (north)easterly direction, you will be moving from UTC+4 to UTC+2 to UTC+1.

Playing the Over/Under Odds on NFL Season Win Totals: Packers at 11.5
The MGM Grand in Las Vegas took the plunge and posted Over/Under NFL season win numbers earlier this week. the Packers open at 11.5 I always like to jump on these numbers ASAP, before Vegas makes necessary adjustments.
If you don't like to throw your money away by trying to outsmart the oddsmakers, season win totals always make for some good discussion. Lets take a look at each team's over/under and try to figure out a couple of strong plays.
AFC EastJets 10
Besides San Diego and New Orleans, the Jets are the only team with a double-digit total that I would feel comfortable betting the over. With the exception of both New England contests and road tests at Baltimore and Philadelphia, their schedule is filled with winnable games.
Patriots 11.5
Does New England have the pass rush to warrant betting the over? It's a big number and not a good value bet, but betting against New England probably doesn't have much value either. I'm staying away.
Bills 5
If Buffalo can manage to avoid starting 0-3 at Kansas City and home against Oakland and New England, they should manage to reach six wins…barley.
Dolphins 8
There's no way you can find eight wins on the Dolphins' schedule. Hammer the under.
AFC North
Steelers 11
If the Steelers can survive the first portion of their schedule, they end with Cincinnati, Cleveland, San Francisco, St. Louis and Cleveland. It's still going to be tough to get to 12 wins, though. Stay away.
Ravens 11
My conservative nature says stay away, but Baltimore has a shot to win 12 games with Cincinnati on the schedule twice and non-conference games against the entire NFC West, right? But 12 is still a big number, and my conservative nature wins. Stay away.
Browns 6.5
Just when you think the Brows are cruising to seven wins and money in your pocket with an over bet, they play the Steelers and Ravens four times in the season's final five weeks. If they can win one of those games, and beat Arizona in Week 15, they'll go over. I'm not convinced that will happen, so I'm staying away.
Bengals 7.5
The Bengals are terrible. Hammer the under.
AFC South

Quick Rinse - News From Around The World
Textile Services Industry Gets National Spotlight
WILIMGTON, Mass. — Textile service executive Ronald Croatti recently appeared on the CBS-TV show "Undercover Boss." Croatti is CEO of UniFirst Corp., in Wilmington, Mass. For most Americans watching "Undercover Boss" it was their first view inside a commercial laundry, which typically process between 10 million and 25 million pounds of uniforms, table linens, bed sheets, towels and more every year "The reusable textile services business is the original green industry," said Ricci. "Commercial laundries reuse linen instead of filing landfills with disposable alternatives and continually discover new, innovative means to reduce energy consumption and recycle water. Our huge economies of scale allow laundries to use about two-thirds less water, energy and detergent than alternatives, such as washing at home, while hygienically cleaning textile products, improving disease control and reducing contamination."

Proposed athletic shoe tax would benefit Illinois youth
By Zach Buchheit Sun-Times Media February 4, 2013 1:06PM

Updated: March 8, 2013 6:43AM
SPRINGFIELD — Illinoisans shopping for a new pair of tennis shoes could be coughing up an extra quarter at the cash register starting this summer if suburban lawmaker has his way.
The newly introduced bill, sponsored by Rep. Will Davis, D-Hazel Crest, would impose a 25-cent tax on the purchase of athletic shoes — described in the bill as any "shoe designed primarily for sports or other forms of physical activity."
Davis hopes to allocate the tax's proceeds to a fund supporting Illinois YouthBuild — a non-profit with 16 programs in the state that provide job training for disadvantaged youth. "This organization ... approached me about a creative way for which they could find some resources," Davis said.
Operating primarily with federal funds from the U.S. Department of Labor, Illinois YouthBuild programs began receiving state money in 1997 through the Department of Human Services. But as with many other state-funded programs, budget constraints have halted funding for the last three years.
The organization has seen eight of its Illinois programs closed in the last decade.
Davis views the shoe tax as a practical way to revive the program's funding, especially since YouthBuild is "a very youth-oriented program," and because he believes "many pairs of athletic shoes are purchased by young people."
"Fortunately for (YouthBuild), I don't see how an additional 25 cents on a pair of tennis shoes should be a challenge," Davis said.
Opposition to tax
But many Illinois business leaders, especially in light of the state's recent credit-rating downgrade by Standard and Poor's, would view the tax as a deterrent for business.
"Obviously we're opposed to it," said Rob Karr, vice president of the Illinois Retail Merchants Association. "We don't like product-specific taxes. Taxes should be broad-based."
Davis said "it's not (the bill's) intent to put any undue burden on retailers," although the bill would require Illinois retailers to file a special monthly tax return to the Department of Revenue.
Similar product-specific taxes are not uncommon in Illinois. Entry fees at strip clubs to pay for domestic abuse programs and a $2 license plate fee to fund state parks were passed last year.
Davis predicts a tough debate in the House because "anything that has taxes associated with it or raises fees is gonna be difficult to pass," but he thinks the bill's good intentions could be enough to move it forward.
"I can't think of too many people that don't talk about having programs for young people," he said. "If you bought a pair of gym shoes, would you pay an additional 25 cents if that money were going to support youth and youth activities?"
Illinois YouthBuild Coalition president Kerry Knodle certainly hopes so, but he says his organization is still pondering the best method for future funding.
"We've been in touch with (Davis') office, and obviously there's questions we have, like what are the numbers that go along with that proposed tax," he said.
With the fate of the shoe tax resting on House members' shoulders, Knodle hopes to have a separate appropriations bill introduced to reallocate $1.5 million to YouthBuild for Fiscal Year 14.
"We're not ruling out new revenue but also not ruling out reallocation of existing revenues," he said. "Our first choice would be to somehow find a way to patch together some existing money, if not just from DHS, perhaps there are some other state departments.
"There's a lot of green between now and June."
