Level 2 Clinic Information
USA Cycling's Mission is to achieve sustained success in international cycling competition and grow competitive cycling in America. It is with this mission in mind, why we created our Level 2 Clinics. The Level 2 Clinics educate coaches to best prepare athletes towards becoming competitive bike racers. The agenda for the clinics will provide a foundation in sport physiology and training plan design, as knowledge of sport physiology is the basis for designing workouts within a training plan.
Please note, USA Cycling's coaching structure begins with level 3 and proceeds to level 1; this mirrors our racing license scheme. So level 3 is the entry level. Level 2 is the second level.
In order to achieve the Level 2 Coaching license, you must be a certified Level 3 Coach in good standing with USA Cycling, attend a Level 2 Clinic and pass the Level 2 test.
Level 2 Coaching Clinic Purpose
The purpose of the Level 2 Clinic is to better educate our coaches in order to better train our athletes. Coaches who attend the clinics can expect to take home a wealth of knowledge in: achieving a higher level of bike handling skills; a better understanding of the physiological stresses and adaptations the body endures through training; and how to utilize these stresses and adaptations in writing a more succinct training plan for their athletes. All which can be used to help their athletes achieve a higher level of success on the bike.2014 Level 2 Clinics

Level 2 clinic format
The Level 2 Coaching Clinic is comprised of two parts. Part one is an on-bike skills component. The objective is to improve the ability of coaches to teach skills in a fun and engaging manner to athletes. All coaches will be expected to participate in the on bike skills session to the best of the coach's ability. If a person is unable to participate, the coach will be expected to observe and assist with instruction when feasible.
Part two will educate coaches to the basics of sport physiology, sport nutrition, overtraining and training plan design through classroom lecture, discussion and written materials. The classroom sessions offer coaches unbiased sport science knowledge and training plan design and provide an ability to consume information critically.
Coaches will need to have a bike in good working condition and to have either an annual racing license or a one-day license (USA Cycling will provide one-day licenses at the clinic). USA Cycling cannot provide bikes for the clinic.
The typical format (subject to change) will be:
Day One
8:00-8:30 Introductions and Overview
8:30-12:00 On-bike skills/drills
12:00-1:00 Group Ride
2:00-4:00 Sports Physiology
4:15-6:00 Sports Physiology
Day Two
8:00-12:00 Sports Physiology
1:00-5:00 On-Bike Practical
Day Three
8:00-12:30 Training Plan Design/Discussion
The clinic will generally start at 8am on Friday and end around noon on Sunday (subject to change). The clinic is scheduled to end at 6pm each day (except Sunday).
What other coaches are saying about the Level 2 Clinics?
"The clinic was great and I am excited to apply the things I learned this weekend with my little 500 team!"
"Thanks for doing a great job presenting, I appreciate all of the great coaching that you bring to the table!"
"I not only learned a lot of fantastic stuff, but I got to do it with a lot of great people! This clinic really lit a fire in me!"
"I want to compliment the coaches on what a fantastic job they did of "leading by example" and keeping a positive, constructive atmosphere. All the instructors were articulate and did a great job making the presentations accessible and interesting to everyone."
"I thought the clinic was awesome. I learned so much- not just about cycling, but about coaching."
"Good stuff at today's USA Cycling Coaching L2 Clinic in Augusta, GA! @usacycling has it together!"
"Final day of USA Cycling L2 coaching clinic in Augusta,GA. Learned much from many great coaches from across the U.S. Well done @usacycling !"
What are the requirements to attend a level 2 Clinic?
You must be a current Level 3 Coach in good standing with USA Cycling. If you are not currently a USAC Coach, please see the information on Steps to Becoming a Certified Coach.
Level 2 Coaches may attend the Level 2 Clinic as a refresher course to earn CEUs if space is available; priority will be given to current Level 3 Coaches seeking to upgrade.
What is the cost of the clinic and what does it include?
The Level 2 Clinic costs $499 (subject to change without prior notification) and will include on bike skills session, lectures and handouts. Cost of lodging and meals are not generally not included. Paying through a method other than via your USA Cycling account, will incur an additional $50 charge. Contact the coaching education for options.
If you need to change clinics after registration, there is a $100 change fee if the change takes place within 30 days of the start of the clinic you originally registered for. Please see the FAQ for information on the cancellation policy.
How do I register for a Level 2 Clinic?
Log on to your USA Cycling account and click on "account." Click on VIEW AVAILABLE CLINICS/WEBINARS. If you are eligible to attend, the clinic will appear.
Does USA Cycling assist in finding lodging?
Each coach is responsible for his/her own lodging. USA Cycling may have a host hotel where the clininc is being held and will supply a direct link to the hotel and possible prefered rates.
What is covered at the Level 2 Clinic?
The Level 2 Clinic covers on-bike skills instruction, exercise physiology (bioenergetics, muscle structure, adaptations and function, cardiorespiratory physiology and adaptations, etc.), and training plan design and periodization. In addition, some additional presentations will be available for self-study in electronic format. More information will be provided after registration.
Who teaches the clinic?
Click here to learn more about the Level 2 faculty.
Do I take the Level 2 exam at the clinic?
No. The Level 2 exam is a self-paced test that the participant completes at home and returns to the Coaching Education Manager. Also, there is no deadline on turning in the Level 2 answer sheet.
What is the general schedule for the Level 2 Clinic?
In general, the clinic runs from 8:00am to 6pm on Friday and Saturday and 8:00am to 1:30pm on Sunday. In some cases start or finish times may need to be adjusted depending on presenters' schedules or facility requirements/limitations. Complete itineraries will be provided to attendees prior to the start of each clinic.
There is not a Level 2 Clinic near me or at a time I can attend. May I just pay the fee and take the exam?
No. The clinic offers a lot of education which is not addressed in the test including excellent discussion from the coaches in the audience who offer insights or other views on the topics covered.
Do I need a bike for the Level 2 Clinic?
Yes, a bike in good working condition will be required for the on bike skills session. USA Cycling does NOT provide bikes, coaches attending will be responsible or providing there own bike. If a coach is not physically able to participate due to an acute injury or more chronic disability, the coach will be expected to observe and assist the instructor(s) when feasible. Riders will be required to wear a helmet during all on bike sessions.
How will I be kept up to date on the clinic I sign up for?
Once you have registered and paid, the Coaching Education Director will put you on an email list for the clinic and send periodic updates as to location, exact start times etc.

My few words on Zombie traffic - if Google sees bounce rate as a quality signal for a site - a simple negative SEO tactic would be to worsen your competitors bounce rate by throwing them zombie traffic.
If Google is also doing traffic shaping then another good negative SEO tactic would be to send them zombie traffic at the high conversion times during the day.
@netmeg it is relatively simple to create a bot that looks like a regular visitor and that sends referrers - you can also create a bot that will follow links on a page.
In order to employ the negative SEO tactics outlined above - of course you would need a bot net and delivery method to the zombie PCs so that would make those tactics the prerogative of sophisticated hackers.

- " The staff was very friendly and our room was clean. The location is perfect, it is very close to the center of Bath. Our beds were not very comfortable and it was very noisy outside during the night. "
- 12 May 2013 Monique Netherlands
- " The facilities were not great at all. The beds were terrible and so were the showers. There were metal frame lockers under each bunk bed so bring your own lock. There really wasn't much to write home about regarding this place. The location is the one good thing. It is right down the road from the baths and the abbey. It really isn't that great, but it is by far the cheapest place in town so they are going to have business regardless. Maybe that's why their standards are so low. "

- " Great Location. Has pub at the bottom with decent food. The living room was no good. I think some of the staff actually used it as their bedrooms. "

- " Great location in the centre of Bath. I stayed in the 6 bed female dorm... I was by myself but could imagine it would be very cramped if it was full. .it was cold at night and realised on the last that the window didn't close properly and when it rained there was a drip near my bed. The bathrooms were old but clean. Would have been nice to have a hand dryer in the bathrooms. Breakfast was good. Overall, a convenient place to sleep in Bath. "

You have probably noticed the new link in the right column for The Book Depository, one of my favorite book sellers. Why? Because they ship worldwide for FREE! And they have excellent prices.
- Book only available in the UK (like Kazuo Ishiguro's new book of short stories will be next week)? Order it from The Book Depository.
- Better edition of the book, better cover, better series (like the Penguin Modern Classics series)? Order it from The Book Depository.
- Booker Prize underway but books not yet published in the U.S. (or wherever you live)? Order from The Book Depository.
It has also happened that the book I want is cheaper to order from The Book Depository, despite the exchange rate (you can see exactly how much a book costs in dollars, so you don't need any outside exchange site), thanks to their free shipping and discounted prices, than from anywhere in the U.S.
I do get a small commission if you use the link on this site to do your Book Depository shopping, and that would be great. I have avoided joining any other affiliate program because I don't think any of them will make me much money. However, I believe in the value of getting to know The Book Depository and hope many of you do.

[JURIST] A US Department of Justice lawyer has informed lawyers representing some 40 detainees at Guantanamo Bay [JURIST report] that they will no longer be able to visit with or send written communications to their clients. DOJ lawyer Andrew I. Warden sent an e-mail to the detainees' counsel Friday, referencing a court ruling [CCR press release] issued by US District Judge Ricardo Urbina last week. Urbina dismissed 16 habeas corpus challenges brought on behalf of at least 40 detainees and in doing so also rendered invalid protocols that had been established governing lawyers' access to detainees. The DOJ has put in place a series of steps for attorneys wishing to resume contact with detainees, but one detainee lawyer, Wells Dixon, called the measures "the latest example of the government's efforts to frustrate counsel access to detainees." Earlier this year, the DOJ sought to restrict lawyer visits [JURIST report], but Guantanamo commander Rear Adm. Harry Harris later backed away from the proposal. AP has more.
[JURIST] A German Justice Ministry official said Saturday that US officials have confirmed that there are no plans to extradite 13 CIA agents wanted in Germany on suspicion of playing a role in the alleged 2003 kidnapping and extraordinary rendition of German national Khalid el-Masri [JURIST news archive]. German prosecutors said in June they would seek extradition [JURIST report] of the agents, but a German Justice Ministry spokesperson told Der Spiegel that after being informed by the Bush administration that the extradition request would be denied, German officials have decided not to press a formal request.El-Masri alleges that CIA agents kidnapped him while on vacation in Macedonia in 2003 and transferred him to Afghanistan, where he was held in a secret prison for five months and subjected to inhumane conditions and coercive interrogation. He was released in Albania in 2004 without apology or funds to return to Germany. El-Masri sued [ACLU materials] various CIA officials in 2005, arguing that they violated international human rights law in his rendition to Afghanistan. A US federal appeals court upheld [JURIST report] the dismissal of that lawsuit in March 2007, ruling that the case could not be heard in a US court because of the state secrets privilege [Sourcewatch backgrounder]. AP has more.
[JURIST] Former Peruvian President Alberto Fujimori [personal website; JURIST news archive] was extradited to Peru Saturday following the Supreme Court of Chile's decision [JURIST report] Friday that Fujimori should be extradited on human rights and corruption charges. Fujimori is accused of approving death squad killings and misusing government funds in Peru. The Supreme Court's review came after Peru filed an appeal of a lower court's ruling [JURIST reports] denying the government's request for extradition. Fujimori served as president of Peru from 1990 to 2000. He was being held under house arrest [JURIST report] in Chile after being arrested [JURIST report] in December 2005 after flying into Chile from Japan to campaign for the Peruvian presidency, despite having been officially banned from holding public office until 2010 [JURIST report]. He is currently running for a seat in the Japanese parliament [JURIST report]. AP has more.
[JURIST] The UN General Assembly [official website] agreed by consensus Friday to accept a committee recommendation that Taiwan's latest bid for UN membership [JURIST reports] be rejected. Taiwan, which officially refers to itself as the Republic of China, was kicked out of the UN in 1971 by General Assembly Resolution 2758 [PDF text] and replaced by the People's Republic of China as the representative of China. This is the 15th straight year that Taiwan's application for UN membership has been rejected. Earlier in the week, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon agreed to allow the General Assembly to consider Taiwan's application, but also said [transcript] that the UN Secretariat had determined that "it was not legally possible to receive the purported application for membership" because of the 1971 resolution. Taiwan is currently proceeding with a national referendum [JURIST report] on the subject of its membership in the United Nations despite opposition from China. China has threatened to invade Taiwan if it ever formally declared independence. AP has more.
[JURIST] Connecticut Governor Jodi Rell on Friday ordered [press release] the Connecticut Board of Pardons and Paroles [official website] "to immediately suspend approval of future parole for any inmate serving a sentence involving a violent offense." Rell said her decision was based on several recent incidents where parolees have been accused in violent crimes. The new policy "will remain in place until reforms of the parole process are complete."In addition to banning future parole for violent offenders, Rell also directed the Pardon and Parole Board to review the status of violent offenders currently out on parole; any offender found to be in violation of the terms of their parole will be required to serve the remainder of their sentence. In her announcement, Rell said:
Parole is a privilege, not a right: It must be earned and it must be retained. Until we can find a better way to determine who poses a risk to the public if released, we will not add to the ranks of people on parole.

Q&A with Rangers GM Glen Sather Posted: Wednesday January 29, 2003 11:18 PMUpdated: Thursday January 30, 2003 1:31 AM Rangers general manager Glen Sather fired first-year head coach Bryan Trottier on Wednesday, just 54 games into his NHL head coaching career. The Rangers are in 11th place in the Eastern Conference with a record of just 21-26-6-1, despite having the league's highest payroll at more than $70 million this season. Sather spoke with the media Wednesday night in a conference call to answer questions about Trottier's dismissal. Q: Why did you make a change at this time? Sather: I don't think there's a particularly good time to do something like this. I thought we were going in the right direction after the Nashville victory and the victory against the Islanders. But then after the recent three-game slide, I made the decision that the team is sliding in the wrong direction and that I have to do anything to try to salvage this season. I really needed to do something in a hurry to put some shock value into the team to get the reality of the discipline that we need to have to win. And that's why it was done. Q: Can you say who will take Bryan's place? Sather: We're not making any announcements about that [Wednesday], but we'll do something about that [Thursday] before practice. Q: Was one of the reasons behind this your feeling that there was not enough accountability? And do you think that Bryan struggled at times easing into the role? Sather: I think every new coach goes through a transition of getting comfortable with the team and getting the team to believe in the methods that he's using. But it really had more to do with the discipline and the accountability than anything. We were on a pretty good roll and then all of a sudden our discipline disappeared. And I just felt that I had to do something and I had to do it in a hurry if we are going to salvage the season. Q: Is this something that you considered doing around the holidays? Sather: I don't think I want to speculate on anything like that. This just happened recently and we'll just leave it like that. Q: When did you first sense that Bryan might not be the right guy? Sather: I don't know whether there was any particular timetable. I think it's just something that you watch and observe and see how people react. There's no formula for people who are successful coaches, but sometimes there is a formula that doesn't make somebody successful. Players sometimes listen and sometimes they don't listen, and coaches really have to find a way to tune in to what gets them, what makes them click and what makes them accountable for their mistakes. There's such a fine line between winning and losing, and the odd mistake here and there can cost you a game. But you just can't have the same thing happen continually. Q: Do you believe that at this point and time it's still possible to make the playoffs? Sather: Yes, absolutely. Q: I was just wondering when and how you let Bryan know? And how did he take the news? Sather: I spoke to him in my office at the practice center. He came in after practice, he sat down and we talked about it for a little while. I told him that I was going to make a change. I think he looked a little relieved. It was a shock, but he looked like the weight of the world was lifted off his shoulders at that point. He wasn't happy about it, but I don't think anybody gets happy about something like that happening to them. But he took it like a man and said that he didn't think he was the right guy for this group of players and that it would probably be the right thing to do. Q: The qualities that you saw in him when you hired him -- are you disappointed that maybe they didn't manifest themselves? Or was his just not the right fit? And do you think he can still be a good coach in this league? Sather: I think Bryan is a terrific guy and a good coach. I just think that at this time, and under these conditions with this group of players, that maybe it wasn't the right fit. And it was a decision that I made. Some of the decisions are good and some are bad, but you have to live with those mistakes. And I'm prepared to do it and go on. And I'm sure the team is prepared and ready to go on. Q: This will be the third coach of your tenure. Why has nothing seemingly worked for the past five years, no matter how much the names of the players and coaches have changed? Sather: I can't comment going back five years. I can make a comment on the last two coaches that were here. There are a lot of things that have happened over that period of time. But it's an environment where you make a choice and sometimes the choices and decisions you make work and sometimes they don't work. It would've been a lot easier not to do anything. But I think this team certainly has the right personnel to get into the playoffs, and to do well if we can get there. But I think that we needed to do something to put them into the frame of mind that we need to do something now. We need to pull together, we need to unite this team and we need to make them stronger. Hopefully, this is the right decision. Q: When Bryan was hired, one of the many questions was whether or not a rookie coach could do this job. In retrospect, do you think that this is just too much for a guy who had very little head coaching experience? Sather: Well, I think it's easy to have 20-20 hindsight in this situation. At the time that I hired Bryan, I certainly thought he was capable of doing the job. I thought that we'd be very successful with the people, the team and the background that he had as an assistant coach. Based on the kinds of players he had dealt with, the situations he'd been in and the way he handled himself, I thought he'd be a great match for us. But it didn't turn out to be that way. I still think Bryan is going to be a good coach in this league. This may not be the right time or the right group of athletes for him to coach. Q: Is your dismissal of Bryan an admission of a mistake? Sather: I would certainly think that it has to be at this stage. I've made a lot of decisions over the number of years that I've been involved with hockey, and not all of them were right. When you make a mistake you have to live with it, go on and try to get better. Q: You use the terms "shock value," "discipline" and "accountability." Is this a flat-out message to the players that it's time they looked in the mirror? Sather: I think that's certainly part of it. I hope that this turns this team around and gets us into the playoffs. I hope it gets some success from a lot of people who have been making mistakes. But all the players have to be held accountable for what's happened. It's a situation that nobody wants to see happen, but sometimes it does happen in sports. I don't think anyone who has been fired is ready to accept it, but it does happen. You know the old cliche that "you can't replace 20 players." It's a way to try to help everyone redeem themselves. Everyone needs to get to play a lot better. We need to perform every night. We can't take undisciplined penalties, we can't make the mistakes we were making and maybe this will help. Q: Were you thinking about this long before the three-game losing streak? Sather: I try to do whatever I can to help improve the hockey team. And that's analyzing the team every night. You want to see the team grow and move ahead. I thought we were playing very well during that streak, but after that, we seemed to lose our edge and lose our composure in situations. We needed to regain that and this is one way to help us. Q: Was the distribution of ice time a concern of yours? And was the non-distribution of starts for the two goaltenders a concern? Sather: I don't think that was a concern. I think that Dan Blackburn has to earn his ice time. We put Danny into a tough spot when Mike Richter was hurt. We weren't sure that we had to make a deal in the early part of that injury. We had to force feed Blackburn a few games and we certainly wouldn't have chosen to do that if we had an alternative, but we didn't. Injuries play a big part in some of these things. It's almost the luck of the draw sometimes with what happens to people. Q: Were your best players playing enough? Sather: I certainly think if you look at how the ice time was distributed among our players, you'll see that the top players were averaging 20 minutes a game. And I think when they are playing that much they have to produce. They can't make the mistakes that we were making. But you also have to remember that two or our best players haven't played for close to 30 games. Q: You said Bryan looked relieved when you told him the news. Do you think he was shocked that perhaps he didn't have a longer leash? Sather: I think when somebody tells you something like that there is always an instant where you are shocked. There is a great deal of pressure coaching a National Hockey League team, especially a team in New York and especially with the number of good players that we have. A lot of them weren't performing up to expectations and it's part of the coach's role to get them there. Bryan was very dedicated to his job. He was in the office early, he left late, he did everything he could do. I think he was probably pulling his hair out trying to figure out a way to get them motivated and to get them to move. So I think that was kind of the relief that I was talking about. Q: Did Bryan offer you any reasons why he felt he wasn't able to do that? Sather: No, we talked for a great deal of time, but that's something that he and I will discuss more after the All-Star break. We are going to meet and have a further discussion, but I don't think I want to get into any specifics right now. Q: Will he remain with the organization in any role? Sather: We are going to meet after the All-Star break is over to talk about that. Q: You mentioned that Bryan will be a good coach in the league but that this might not be the right time or the right group of athletes. What is it about this group of athletes that coaches have had trouble with? Sather: I think it's a combination of things. If you look at most teams that have grown up together, they've learned the same discipline and same responsibility to each other. When you have a collective group of superior athletes who have come from different teams and haven't grown together, they all have their own distinctive ideas on what is right and what is wrong. Sometimes it takes a period of time to get them to buy into your philosophy. If we could've stuck with this and waited until next season, then perhaps we would've never made a change here, but we don't have that kind of time. I think that this team can make the playoffs and we have to do something now to get them there. Q: In all of your years as an executive in the league, is this as difficult as a decision as you've had to make? Sather: It's certainly up there. It's very difficult to do something like this to someone who has become a friend and a respected part of the organization. I've gotten to know Bryan very well. I know what he's like and I know how hard he had been taking the losses. I think he gave everything he could to try to get these guys to go and to do what he thought was right. He's gone through a lot of hockey ups and downs in his career, and he's seen an awful lot. It was tough to see this weigh on him the way it did. Q: How does this affect your future as the general manager of the hockey club? Sather: I don't think that I take a lot of time during the day to worry about myself. My job is to try to improve this organization and to get it back to where we expect it to be in the standings. That's the way I'm spending most of my time. Q: Would you consider a playing coach like Mark Messier or Brian Leetch? Sather: I really haven't though about a playing coach, but first of all it's against the rules in the NHL. We're going to get into the coaching decision [Thursday]. So there's no sense even speculating about that. Q: I know you said that hindsight is 20-20, but looking back, do you kind of wish that you had hired somebody with more of a disciplinarian reputation when you had people like Ken Hitchcock and Pat Burns available back then? Sather: Well, I think I've answered this question before. I went through the selection process and I thought I made the right decision. It's easy to go back and say that decision wasn't right today, but when I made it I thought I made the right choice. I analyzed a lot of coaching candidates and I thought that I came out with a guy who was the best suited to be successful here, and obviously he wasn't. So we had to make a change and I'll have to live with that for a long time. Q: Have you given any thought to getting back behind the bench? Sather: I think I answered this earlier -- we are going to make that decision [Wednesday] and going to make the announcement [Thursday]. But I'm not going to get into any details about coaching now. |

Wild storm's high winds cause thousands of power outages
High wind gusts expected through much of day Thursday
Gusty winds caused thousands of power outages in New Hampshire on Thursday as wildly changing weather moved through the state.
After frigid temperatures last week, temperatures rose to spring-like levels Wednesday and early Thursday as downpours and strong winds moved in. Through the day Thursday, temperatures began to drop back down to normal winter levels.
In the driving rain and howling winds, utility crews were out Thursday to restore power to the thousands who lost electricity. A tree fell in front of Al Ferris' Plaistow house at about 3:45 a.m., waking him up and taking down power lines.
"I figured it was a tree, but didn't know how bad or whether it hit the house," he said. "I got lucky. It came across the front."
Ferris said he has a generator for such an emergency.
The warm weather made Thursday morning feel more like the end of March rather than the end of January.
"It's a little bit different than a couple days before when I was getting up," said Scott Currier, of Belmont. "It was negative 7, and now, all of sudden, I'm waking up and it's 60 degrees."
The extreme weather was also felt on Mount Washington, which set a record high for the day of 43 degrees, beating the old record of 38 degrees set in 1947.
Highest recorded wind gusts, as of 12 p.m. Thursday:
Seabrook | 58 mph |
Richmond | 48 mph |
Manchester | 47 mph |
Hudson | 46 mph |
Lebanon | 46 mph |
Nashua | 46 mph |
Keene | 33 mph |
In all, there are more than 15,000 outages reported, as of 3:45 p.m. Thursday.
Here's the latest tally by utility:
Unitil | 3,267 |
Liberty Utilities | 36 |
A high wind warning is in effect until 5 p.m. for much of the state.

Roth had been married only 2 1/2 months before the crash, Colombo said. He'd started work with Energy Services for $12 an hour in March 2011, eager to improve on his minimum-wage pay at a Clarksburg bakery.
"This new job with Energy Services was important to him,'' Colombo said.
Good-paying jobs are becoming plentiful in Northern West Virginia, even for unskilled workers, as natural gas companies tap into the vast reserves of the Marcellus and Utica shale fields underlying parts of Appalachia.
Roth's wrongful death lawsuit was filed last year but was recently amended to name Gray individually and hold her personally liable.
It says that when the crew finished work around 10 p.m. July 29, the workers knew they'd be expected to be back at Anmoore the following morning. Wade, who oversaw the crew, did not tell them to stop somewhere and rest before heading home when they phoned to tell him they were finished.
Wade knew or should have known the crew would be working a 22-hour day with no rest, the lawsuit says, and that there were no sleeper berths in the truck or on-site resting facilities in Carrollton.
Nor did Wade arrange for a hotel room or instruct the workers to stay overnight.
The defendants also knew that federal regulations require commercial drivers to get a certain amount of rest, the lawsuit says, yet "knowingly made a decision to work these men well beyond a lawful and safe amount of time.''
The lawsuit also claims that company records related to the accident were falsified to avoid federal scrutiny.
It calls the companies' conduct "willful, wanton, reckless and so grossly negligent'' that the judge should award not only compensatory damages, but also punitive damages to deter future bad behavior.

Arkansas State Joins South Independent |
Colleges - Men's DI College |
The South Independent Conference has bolstered its credibility as a legitimate competition with the addition of Arkansas State. The Red Wolves are still going to compete in the College Premier Division, but will enter their developmental side in the South Independent. "They would not let us in the SEC, although we've traditionally competed with all those teams for 13 or 14 years, whether it was DII playing Auburn and Alabama up through DI Tennessee and Florida. They formed the SEC league and they're making it SEC exclusive, because of their marketability," lamented Huckaby, who also expressed gratitude for the South Independent for including the Red Wolves. "We are very grateful that the Independent Conference has given us a home, and are looking forward to helping develop the league. |

Horoscope for the Week
Sun, Mar 09 2014 - Sat, Mar 15 2014
You are likely to socialise a lot more than usual this week, which means you shall come in contact with like-minded people with whom Ganesha advises you to keep in touch as they may come in good use in the future. On the personal front, you are likely to face some problems as you may be out of sync with your spouse, so it would be best for you to keep silent and wait for this phase to pass. Ditto for things on the professional front, so you will have to be extremely alert. During public discussions, try to stay balanced in your arguments. Your materialistic and spiritual tendencies may play a tug of war, pulling you in opposite directions. However, Ganesha says it is not possible to run in only in one of those direction, ignoring the other, so you need to strike a balance.
Your work ethic will be so exemplary this week that others around you will be infected by it and will resolve to work in as disciplined and as determined a manner as you do. With your whole team working with dedication, your business turnover and profits are set to soar. While this phase is excellent for businessmen, the same cannot be said for professionals, who will not be in a position, either because of lack of resources or lack of self-confidence, to deal with the challenges that come their way in a positive manner. However, you will not let such tough challenges affect your morale or peace of mind. You will stay cool even under adverse circumstances, much to the surprise of people in your inner circle. The secret behind it is that your family will be backing you through thick and thin.
With the planetary configurations suggesting a smooth week, your mind will be at peace, which in turn will help you perform much better at your workplace. You shall complete almost all your tasks well within the deadlines without letting it affect the quality of your output. However, there may be some tasks or projects where you will make absolutely no headway, which will be very frustrating for you because you have given them your best shot. Ganesha advises you to just relax, and be happy that you did your best, and not to think of results. Try to stay as optimistic and positive as possible. Back on the domestic front, have a fair and frank discussion with your spouse to resolve petty issues that may be creating problems in your relationship. At social gatherings try to make as many new contacts as possible.
Too many things will be demanding your attention this week, both on the home and work fronts. You will have your hands full and mind crammed with the myriad tasks that you need to complete within specified time limits. Your only alternative will be to try and do some expert multi-tasking. Depending on your levels of enthusiasm, you will either succeed or lag behind at times. You will lack consistency. While you are multi-tasking, however, Ganesha advises you not to mix personal and professional work. Both the areas of life are important and you must not apply the same yardsticks while dealing with them. Above all, maintain you cool even under extremely trying circumstances, only then will you be able to take judicious decisions. If you succeed in dealing with all matters wisely this week, your professional and social status will get a big boost.
Your professional efficiency and dedication will come in for a lot of praise from your peers and superiors alike this week, says Ganesha, which shall give you a lot of self-confidence, and you will resolve to perform even better. In addition, your inherent charisma will attract people to you, including that special someone. The week is very favourable for your love life, too, so you can take a romantic relationship to the next level, and look forward to a very exciting date. If you wish to propose, you may go right ahead, as you are likely to receive a positive response. Even for married people, the week is good and you shall strengthen your relationship with your spouse. Even on the social front, you shall be very busy, making new contacts and strengthening existing ones. Meeting people from different backgrounds will broaden your perspective.
Ganesha predicts that this week is going to be jam-packed with activities, both on the personal as well as the domestic fronts, but still you will manage to take some time out for yourself and relax or hang out with your friends. On the work front, there is a lot in the pipeline, but since you are full of zest and enthusiasm, you will be able to accomplish most of the work that comes your way. And, the best part is that most of your expectations regarding remuneration and career progress are likely to be fulfilled this week. Even businessmen may expect good tidings from clients, and debts which you may be on the verge of writing off will be repaid. All this means that financially this is going to be a very comfortable week, and you can afford to splurge a bit on yourself and your family.
The stars this week suggest that you shall be brimming with energy and enthusiasm, and no task will be too difficult for you to accomplish, although you may have to really slog it out if you wish to meet all the tight deadlines. You may have to do some slick time management, multi-tasking, and employ some innovative methods while working, or you may fall short of your targets. There is also the danger, warns Ganesha, that because of the hectic schedule, you may feel physically and mentally fatigued, which could ruin your weekend. The good thing is that even in the midst of all this hectic activity, your outlook will remain positive and you will be in good humour. Travel for official reasons is on the cards, but make your plans meticulously in order to avoid last-minute changes.
You may be feeling a bit stressed this week, and on top of it there are a lot of challenging tasks or projects lined-up, so Ganesha advises you to try and conserve your energy and not to waste it over futile activities. Also try to get enough rest and recreation to replenish your vitality. You could also indulge in your favourite hobbies which involve creativity such as painting or writing, which can also put you in a positive frame of mind. Ganesha feels that this week is very auspicious for you to try to work towards your lofty ambitions, as there is a fair chance that you will make substantial headway towards them. Keep your distance from disputes and arguments, because if you get embroiled in them it will only harm your professional prospects. Take good care of your health, eat nutritious food, and drive carefully.
There is too much piled up on your plate this week, foretells Ganesha, and unless you plan and prioritise your work properly, and do them with a lot of diligence, you may fall short of the expectations that your superiors may have from you. But if you do work very hard and achieve all your targets, Ganesha assures you that you will be fully justified in expecting a salary hike or a promotion, or even both. However, if you are contemplating a job change for whatever reason, you would do well to put off the decision for later as the planets are not much in its favour. Maintain the status quo as far as important career decisions are concerned. A lot of travel is on the cards for businessmen, both to revive old contacts and also to gain new clients to spread your business far and wide.
There is a possibility that things may go wrong this week, especially technical equipment or machinery. In your office, it may be glitches in the computers or network connections, while at home your TV or refrigerator may conk off. Though minor and easily resolved, these things will nevertheless affect your morale and make you anxious. However, Ganesha advises you that these are petty things and will soon be set right so you should not get affected by them. There is travel on the cards, but it will not be for leisure purposes. It will be for official reasons, and if you have hopes of going sight-seeing or exploring new cultures, you may be in for some disappointments. If things are not going on smoothly in your life, you will try to smoothen them out, and if they are flowing smoothly, you will try to improve the situation so that you make faster progress.
You will be prone to becoming impatient this week, so Ganesha advises you to take things easy, ponder carefully about the consequences of your actions and then only take up any task or project. The same applies before you make any commitment to anyone. If you find things to be too confusing of if you face a dilemma, you would do well to seek guidance from trusted friends or senior members of your family. Your demeanour will be very charming and people ? even a member of the opposite sex, if you are lucky ? may get attracted to you. You shall become very image conscious so a visit to a beauty parlour cannot be ruled out. Financial concerns will be there, but they are not too serious and if it elevates your mood, you may go ahead and splurge a bit on your favourite products.
The planets are aligned in a very favourable way for you this week, says Gaensha. You shall be in a very positive mood and brimming with energy, so that even tasks that are usually very difficult for you to perform, will now seem easy, and life will sail effortlessly forward. You will be very clear-headed, and the decisions you take during this week will mostly be spot-on. Your inherent wisdom will come to the fore, benefiting not just you personally, but everyone who comes in contact with you. Subduing your emotions, you will reason things out logically and have a very practical approach to life. On the professional front, you will work with great efficiency, pleasing your bosses, which will make them favourably inclined towards you during appraisals. Financially, you shall be comfortable. If you have been planning to start a family, this is a favourable phase for it.

IEE: Smart grids depend on consumers for success
Utilities stand to save money in operational costs after an initial large investment in smart-grid infrastructure, but the rest of the savings will depend on consumers.
That's according to a 38-page white paper (PDF) released this month by the Institute for Electric Efficiency.
The IEE group did a cost-benefit analysis using real-world numbers for things like equipment costs, energy prices, and usage statistics to estimate the costs and benefits to four different types of prototypical utilities managing a service territory of one million residential electricity consumers.
Implementing smart grids, advanced metering infrastructure (AMI), and associated energy management technologies would … Read more

Years ago my mother found a recipe for Thanksgiving Day stuffing in a cookbook purchased at a gourmet food and kitchen store. The recipe calls for whole roasted chestnuts and is the best we've had. Over the years I've bought these for her and had them shipped to her in time for her holiday cooking. Now that it's "that time" again, I guess I should start looking for them.
Now let's see what our supermarket sleuths have discovered this week:
Carol found Nabisco chocolate cookies and Anna's Orange thins at Publix at 5655 Red Bug Lake Rd. Winter Springs.
Terry is looking for Adolphs Meat Marinade. She says a friend used it to make flank steak.
Patricia needs help finding beef and gravy in a bag. She bought it yeas ago, but hasn't seen it lately.
Bill is trying to locate Balocco Savoiardi lady fingers in the Orlando area, and Sue needs help finding canned tamales. She used to find them made by Old El Paso, but can't find them now.
Sherry is looking for Campbell's Chicken and Dumpling Soup, and Evelyn is looking for Vlasic Polish Dill pickles.
