Kimi Raikkonen on his maiden Ferrari win; Lewis Hamilton on his first taste of Formula One champagne; and Alexander Wurz and David Coulthard on their dramatic coming-together. All 22 drivers report back on the action in Melbourne
Kimi Raikkonen, Ferrari (1st):
A fantastic victory! It is great to be winning again with my new team whom I want to thank for giving me a great car. The race was not as easy as it might have looked from the outside, partly because shortly after the start, the radio failed so it was almost impossible to talk to the pit wall. Fortunately we had prepared well for the race and I knew what I had to do, but there were a few difficult moments. I was not flat out all the time, adapting my pace to the way the race was going. It was nice to hear my national anthem again on the podium as it had been a while. I have to say that last year it seemed to be the Italian one I was hearing usually. This is a great way to start the championship. We know we have a very competitive package but we still have to work to make it even better and above all, reliable.
Fernando Alonso, McLaren (2nd):
"What a great way to start the season and my career as a Vodafone McLaren Mercedes driver. Of course it's always better to win but Kimi (Raikkonen) was a little bit quicker than us today, however we scored the maximum points that were possible, and I'm really pleased. My start was a bit strange with both BMWs being very quick off the line, and I was so busy defending my line from Heidfeld on the outside that it was not possible for me to stay ahead of him. I was then behind Lewis (Hamilton) for a while and was just focusing on keeping up with him and sometimes dropping back to allow the car to cool down. I took second after the second pitstop as I was able to stay out for an additional two laps. Originally it was meant to be one lap but because I was behind Lewis I managed to save enough fuel for one more lap. Both of the Bridgestone Potenza tyre options worked well. We will now continue to work hard to give us the best opportunity to beat Ferrari at the Malaysian Grand Prix."
Lewis Hamilton, McLaren (3rd):
"I'm absolutely ecstatic - today's result is more than I ever dreamed of achieving on my Grand Prix debut. A big thank you to the team who have worked so hard during the winter to make sure I was as prepared as I possible could be. I made a good start but the BMWs were quick off the line and Kubica managed to get past. There was no room on the inside so I got on the left and managed to outbrake both Kubica and Fernando (Alonso) coming into the first corner to take third. The race was intense, and I was working very hard. I made a few mistakes but nothing major and really enjoyed myself. It was great to lead the race for a few laps, but I knew it was only a temporary thing. Fernando got past me at the second pitstop as he was able to stay out a bit longer and I lost some time behind backmarkers. We now have a lot of work ahead of us with the Malaysia test and the rest of the season, but there is no doubt that we can build from what has been achieved today."
Nick Heidfeld, BMW Sauber (4th):
I had a very good start, which was an even better one than Kimi (Raikkonen) and managed to pass Fernando (Alonso). Of course I hoped to stay in front of him, but realistically I knew the McLarens were quicker than us. Thinking about how happy we are, you should not forget where we came from as we started last season eighth in the constructors championship. Our pace is really good and fourth is a super start to the season. I feel very sorry for the team with Roberts (Kubica) retirement, as he was also very strong. My tyre strategy to take the softer ones first was riskier. I knew after the first stop there was the danger of getting stuck in traffic, and this is what happened, but I took the risk anyway. The race was a lot of fun, but in the final laps I was a bit lonely. Mechanically my car was perfect.
Giancarlo Fisichella, Renault (5th):
The race proved more difficult than we had expected. We knew that we were not on the pace of the leaders, but we had hoped to make up some ground - and now, I think we realise there is a lot of work to do. From a personal point of view, I got the best that I could from the package today, but I was struggling with overall grip from the start. The car was handling well, and we had good reliability - but so did the other teams at the front. Hopefully we can begin catching up from the next race.
Felipe Massa, Ferrari (6th):
After what happened in qualifying yesterday it would have been difficult to do any better than this sixth place. I was able to run at a good pace even with a full fuel load facing a race that would be one long climb through the field. The F2007 was very competitive and so I am optimistic about the next few races. But I cannot forget the disappointment for the failure in qualifying, which meant I had to start from the back of the grid. If not for that, I would definitely have been fighting for the win. But I am happy with the overall result in terms of what it means for the team and I am happy for Kimi who won on his debut with Ferrari.
Nico Rosberg, Williams (7th):
I wasnt perhaps expecting today would turn out so well, but I started last years first race from 12th place and finished 7th, so I thought I could maybe do it again given my qualifying position. I have taken the best out of our car today and I was particularly happy that overtaking Ralf (Schumacher) was successful - I was taking a chance of course, but youve got to try it and it was good for the team. The new regulation requiring us to use both tyre types mixed it up a bit and although I did suffer some graining late in the race, it didnt matter because I didnt have anyone close in front or behind me. At the next test in Malaysia we have to improve to keep progressing.
Ralf Schumacher, Toyota (8th):
We had expected to be in the top ten but to bring two cars home is a good result in the first race. The conditions were good for the race but the car was a little difficult so it was hard work at times. Towards the end of the race we had a problem with pneumatic pressure but we made it to the finish and its good to come away with a point. We became faster towards the end and the strategy worked well, we just need to work on the speed now. We have some performance to catch up so we have to develop our car to get closer. I remain confident because the chance is there to improve. It will just be a matter of concentrating on each area and working hard.
Jarno Trulli, Toyota (9th):
That was a difficult afternoon for me and it was a pity that I just missed out on the points. The car made a poor start and I lost two places into the first corner. I made a good move to gain one back on the first lap but then I was held up behind Ralf (Schumacher) for the first stint. I lost more time when Fisichella pulled out of the pits in front of me. I couldnt get past him and because he was heavy on fuel I lost ground. From then on I was unable to make much more impact. The balance of the car was not too bad but there was no way to gain places. Later I had trouble with my brakes so my pace dropped further. Still, we made the finish and after our hard winter of testing it has been a reasonable weekend.
Heikki Kovalainen, Renault (10th):
This may have been my Grand Prix debut, but to be honest, there is very little to remember from it - and lots to forget. I didn't have a great race: there were too many mistakes, and my performance just wasn't controlled enough. I had hoped to be able to move up through the field and gain positions. Straight away from the start, though, I was struggling even to hold on to other cars. My feeling right now is that the next race cannot get a lot worse. But I will stay positive, work hard and try to make sure I have a better weekend in Malaysia. I will be driving all three days of the Sepang test in ten days' time, which will help me learn the circuit and give me a good starting point for the race weekend. Then, my objective will be to improve in every area for my second Grand Prix.
Rubens Barrichello, Honda (11th):
"I feel like we had a competitive race today, even though I finished outside of the points. The tyres were working well and our strategy also worked to our advantage. I was losing time behind Jenson in the first part of the race but that's the way racing goes. We have no team orders so I had to find my way past and go on from there. Apart from that, I thought we could quite possibly have scored points here. I think we got the best from the car today so we have shown that there is a lot of work to do to improve. At least we know where our problem is and we have some ideas on how to fix them. I'm sure we can make some progress before Malaysia."
Takuma Sato, Super Aguri (12th):
Firstly, well done to everybody in the team. It is a positive start to the season, with two reliable cars finishing the race. I had quite an exciting start and first lap amongst the pack, which I enjoyed. But with the differing track conditions, I was struggling a bit with the balance of the car which meant that we could not make the most of it. But I take this as a positive learning experience and something that we shall have to work on from here. During my second stop we lost some time and that affected our finishing position. That was unfortunate, but I think we've shown good performance and made a very solid start, so I am looking forward to having another good race in Malaysia.
Mark Webber, Red Bull (13th):
"It was tough race today, the first pit stop didn't go very well and when I went back out, I was having trouble maintaining my speed going into the corners. I wasn't able to get the pace back that I'd had in the first stint, which was very frustrating. Nothing really went right today, but that's the game we're in, some days give you a good feeling and the next day it isn't so easy."
Vitantonio Liuzzi, Toro Rosso (14th):
"A big thank you to everyone in the team who worked so hard so that I could see the chequered flag here today. As we have been struggling all weekend, this has been a tough race for us. It was important for us to finish to get more kilometers under our belt, as we did very little testing this winter. Fourteenth place is not the result we were looking for, but it was a positive day for us as we have got plenty of data from it to build on for the future."
Jenson Button, Honda (15th):
"Not a very good day or result unfortunately. I was running heavy with fuel in the first stint and had to pit early because the car had a massive amount of understeer. At my first stop I requested front wing but because of a radio problem the team was unable to respond. When I pitted again, we had to put a lot of wing on but it didn't make any difference. So the problem may be in the front end aerodynamics. If that proves to be the case, then it is something we can certainly address straight away. Then of course I had the drive-through penalty which just compounded things. Going forward, once we know where our problems lie and what we need to do to fix them, we have three weeks and a test in between to start addressing them. Hopefully we will be able to demonstrate some improvement as early as the next race in Malaysia."
Anthony Davidson, Super Aguri (16th):
The car went into anti-stall at the start, which is such a shame as I didn't go anywhere, so obviously I was then in last place as we went into turn one. I collected myself and thought that maybe I'd get some early positions back. I went round the outside of one of the Spykers and they hit me quite heavily, even though I thought I'd given them enough room. The car got pitched into the air and landed very heavily and I hurt my upper back. The jolt also winded me a lot making talking on the radio difficult. I think that we've got to work on our pace for the next race, so we need to do some more long runs and understand what happens to the balance during the test in Sepang. My car suffered a lot of damage, the whole right side of the bodywork was gone, the floor's broken, and I must have lost a major amount of downforce and that obviously slows you down a lot. It was a fight, but I got to the end of the race and saw my first Grand Prix chequered flag.
Adrian Sutil, Spyker (17th):
I got a good start and made up a few places, but I had the coming together with Davidson and dropped back. When I did get some free space I found I could push the car and was running similar times to the group in front, but I was disappointed to have the two drivethrough penalties in the mid point of the race. I guess it's down to experience and I can only get better.
Alexander Wurz, Williams (DNF):
After his second stop, I was aware that David (Coulthard) was close behind me on the track. Suddenly I felt an impact and the next thing I knew, I was his landing pad as the impact had sent him airborne over my car. It looked pretty spectacular, but Im fine. Its a shame my race ended the way it did, as soon as we got back to the paddock David came to apologise to me and he was a gentleman about the incident. Unfortunately though this doesnt help Williams nor me, but thats just how it goes sometimes. Nico proved today that our race pace is good - I wasnt able to show our speed so much, just because of the constant traffic I was among, but lets look forward to a better race in Malaysia.
David Coulthard, Red Bull (DNF):
"I tried to have a go down the inside of Alex Wurz's car at Turn three, but I was too far back and screwed it up. I went for the pass, but it was over optimistic on my part. The collision was my fault, not Alex's, so apologies to him for that."
Robert Kubica, BMW Sauber (DNF):
My pace was good but unfortunately we had a gearbox problem. I was stuck in fifth gear and that was the end of my race. The only good thing is we know what the problem is and we now have to resolve it. In the race I was much heavier than Nick (Heidfeld) and was able to match his speed. My strategy was to attack towards the end of the race. My last stint was going to be very short, so I would have had an even better performance then, but unfortunately I didnt get that far.
Scott Speed, Toro Rosso (DNF):
"By the end of the first stint I was pretty much at the pace of the guys right in front of me, but I was struggling to keep the wheels on the track. Then, after the first pit stop the situation got worse and I had a bit of understeer, because evidently, we had a slow air leak in both front wheels."
Christijan Albers, Spyker (DNF):
I started the race in the spare car as I wasn't happy with the balance of my race car after qualifying. I had a good start and put in some fast times in the first ten laps, but unfortunately I made a mistake and went off the road. It's a shame for the team but we can only improve on this performance in Malaysia.

Meanwhile, "Top Chef" judge Padma Lakshmi believed she made her mother proud by eating most of her lunch in between hosting duties at the event. Lakshmi took the podium with her mouth full before introducing the event's honorees. "I'm living my mother's dream," said Lakshmi, "I sit on my ass, I eat and I talk." Other honorees included Anne Sweeney, president of Disney ABC Television Group; New York Times Supreme Court correspondent Linda Greenhouse (who recently retired from the paper to become a journalist in residence at Yale); playwright and actress Anna Deavere Smith; Susan Gianinno, Publicis USA chairman and chief executive officer, and publicist Joannie Danielides.

PERHAPS THEY SHOULD GET THEIR RESUMES READY: Things are heating up in the battle between the Old Guard at the Tribune Co. and new owner Sam Zell. The company on Monday sent a rather unorthodox press release blasting Randy Michaels, who Zell appointed as chief executive officer of Tribune's Interactive and Broadcasting units, for hiring Marc Chase as the new president of Tribune Interactive. The release begins with, "Surely you can't be serious?" regarding the appointment, and goes on to say "another freaking Clear Channel Communications executive on the payroll and this one's been named president of Tribune Interactive." And there's more: "Tribune Broadcasting's Randy Michaels' past finally caught up with him when Marc Chase obviously blackmailed his way into a position he is not remotely qualified to hold. Insiders are irate. Chase is a fraud." Chase's professional experience lists "vocabulary advisorist for George W. Bush" from 2004 to the present and, prior to that, at eBay as "president of buying crap."

Intermediate Outcomes: Overview of HbA1c Results
Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Most diabetes medications (metformin, thiazolidinediones, sulfonylureas, and repaglinide) reduced HbA1c to a similar degree by about 1 absolute percentage point when compared with baseline values. Two-Drug combination therapies with metformin generally were more effective at reducing HbA1c compared with metformin monotherapy by about 1 absolute percentage point. However, metformin lowered HbA1c approximately 0.4% better than did the DPP-4 inhibitors. Most combinations of metformin, sulfonylureas, and thiazolidinediones had similar efficacies in lowering HbA1c. These results were consistent with the 2007 systematic review, except for the data on the DPP-4 inhibitors that was lacking at that time because they were not yet Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved. Although comparisons with the GLP-1 receptor agonists were included, evidence for these comparisons was graded as insufficient or low, limiting conclusions. Although firm conclusions could not be drawn on the comparative effectiveness of two-drug combinations due to few head to head studies, most combination therapies showed similar reductions in HbA1c.
The two long-term studies excluded from the meta-analysis (ADOPT and UKPDS) lasting longer than 4 years have conflicting results related to glycemic control. ADOPT favored metformin over sulfonylurea after a median followup of 4 years. UKPDS appeared to favor sulfonylurea over metformin in overweight individuals on monotherapy after 9 years of followup, while showing no between-group differences in mean HbA1c after 10 years of followup for those subjects where other diabetes medications were added to their monotherapy regimen. One of the UKPDS studies was included in this report since the article evaluated only those overweight individuals assigned metformin or sulfonylurea who did not have a second medication added over time. The rest of the UKPDS studies were excluded from this section of the report since they were allowed to add other diabetes medications to their initial monotherapy groups, making it impossible to discern comparative drug effects.

More Insights
Disruptive technologies such as the mobile Internet, cloud and the automation of knowledge are transforming the way people live and work.
As organizations strive to deliver powerful capabilities for consumers and employees to create and connect, they need a secure, reliable technology infrastructure. Many businesses are moving towards converged systems that provide powerful, mobile Internet-scale applications while meeting the pressure to streamline operations, drive growth, cut costs and improve business efficiency.
In this context, here are the top key trends for 2014:
Connectivity realized in 2014
The smart device has shifted from a cutting-edge communications tool to an essential component of everyday lives with consumers and employees demanding anytime, anywhere access to sophisticated personal and business services.
To show that they are embracing this trend, organizations are focusing on mobile applications that drive innovation and growth. For example in financial services, banks are developing advanced self-service mobile applications to ensure customer loyalty, lower the cost of customer acquisition and enhance brand visibility.
The trend of Bring-Your-Own-Device (BYOD) and Choose-Your-Own-Device (CYOD) also continues to gain momentum. However, in 2014, business and government will move the focus beyond the device and towards building the applications, business process and services that realize the benefits to be gained from better customer and employee engagement.
For an organization to be successful in 2014, it will need to have the proper policies and processes in place to address data, device and network security, as well as the privacy issues associated with having personal and company-owned data on one device.
Consumer-driven design
With the increasing convergence of work and personal life, more employees want to use their own smartphones, tablets and notebook PCs to access company data instead of devices provided at their workplaces. What organizations need to provide are devices that not only come equipped with the necessary levels of manageability, serviceability and security but also with the experience and design employees crave.
Hybrid devices, for example, are a good option. These provide the productivity required in an enterprise notebook with the flexibility and fun of a tablet. The devices are ideal for both content creation and consumption.
Tackling security risks
Cybercrime continues to increase, with 92 percent of Forbes Global 2000 companies reporting data breaches in the last 12 months. Cyber criminals have become increasingly sophisticated through sharing resources and techniques to mount advanced attacks.
In isolation, businesses struggle to stay ahead of this new breed of attacks, placing themselves in constant risk. For instance, the banking industry often falls prey to a domino effect where one organization is hit with an attack that is later used against its peers until many organizations are breached.
In 2014, enterprises need to join forces and collaborate to beat hackers at their own game. By sharing background intelligence on threats in real-time, businesses can create a unified industry defense and reduce the risk of financial, competitive and reputation losses.
Removing the guesswork with powerful analytics
With the increasing use of virtualization and cloud technologies, IT organizations no longer know or control all the technologies in their environment, making it difficult to foresee potential issues. Yet, IT is accountable for ensuring the availability of IT services and fixing issues when they arise.
IT teams are increasingly relying on Big Data analytics to better understand their environments. IT professionals are using modern analytics to collect, store and analyze massive amounts of information to predict and prevent performance issues.
In 2014, more companies will look to embrace core technologies across Big Data and operations management to provide actionable insight into all aspects of an organization's IT operations and enable optimal performance.
The next era of storage
Businesses today are demanding faster access to new applications, transparent mobility of data across systems and scalability to support an influx of new data types and sources. Additionally, businesses require a new level of affordability so internal IT can compete with cost pressures from external public cloud providers.
In 2014, we expect organizations to move towards converged storage solutions designed to eliminate fragmented complexity and replace it with a single approach to storing, protecting, and retaining data in all forms. The next generation of storage will enable greater agility by boosting utilization and providing federated data mobility. It will save time and reduce complexity with common, open management that is cloud-ready.
Converged systems to stay ahead
Critical to the success of IT organizations in the next decade will be the deployment of intelligent technology that enables the business to harness vast amounts of data for informed decision making, transformed business processes and increased innovation.
IT organizations need integrated systems to meet their application needs out of the box so they can minimize resources spent on architecting and refining solutions. They need to simplify IT processes by buying and managing systems, not components.
Hyperscale for a new computing era
Today's powerful megatrends of Cloud, Mobility, Security, and Big Data are changing the way technology is consumed, delivered and paid for. These trends have also transformed what the business expects from IT and CIOs must play a leading role in developing strategies that create opportunities for the business.
With nearly 10 billion devices connected to the Internet and predictions for exponential growth, core to IT strategy will be an Internet infrastructure that can scale to support fundamentally insatiable requirements—all with less energy, a smaller footprint, increased integration and lower cost.
In 2014, we are likely to see organizations embrace technology designed to change the infrastructure economics and lay the foundation for the next 20 billion devices.

Episode Information
The Litchfield Jazz Festival has brought hundreds of world class artists to Connecticut – and has helped educate hundreds of students in this American art form.
The Festival started in 1996, and quickly became one of the most respected jazz events in the world. After starting its life in Litchfield, and then moving for a ten year run at the Goshen fairgrounds – it comes to the town of Kent for the first time this year.
The festival is more than just performances by professional musicians – it's a jazz camp for aspiring talent. Today, where we Live we're broadcasting live from Kent's landmark restaurant, the fife and drum – the site of a jazz series leading up to the festival.
Today, we'll hear from student musicians – talk about the Litchfield jazz festival – and the impact on this small town on Connecticut's far Western edge.

I was told, I should post this here as well. I think everyone should be undecided if this is a bug or an exploit. I (maybe mistakenly and too soon) claimed it to be a hack due to the obvious observation of huge gold generation and the orthodox behaviour of the player. "Hi /r/leagueoflegends! This is my first submission ever to a Reddit as a whole, so sorry if there's anything wrong with it. Basically, here's the story: I'm some random Diamond dude who is finally graduating from a secondary school in Germany. Learning for exams I've realized how terrible SoloQ is for relaxing, which is why I've started to get into Dominion ALOT. My game counter went from 10 to 50 in 3 days or something. (It's so fast and fun, you won't believe it, srsly.) However, just about an hour ago I had to witness the first hacker/exploiter (I have no idea whatsoever how you call this) I've encountered in League after playing it since after closed beta. http://imgur.com/a/u1IKv) The pictures are as stated pretty self-explanatory. "iD Ryze" is rocking a Witchcap 2 minutes into the game. In picture 2 he even says he's waiting for gold "-.-". Cannot believe he was dumb enough to think noone would notice, but well he even sells his Wooglet for an Abyssal for some unknown reason. Someone explain that step to me. My friends and me actually afk'd from the second we noticed that something was wrong. No way we're supporting this. (On a different note: I'm sorry for typing in "gg report" at the beginning, and the Rainbow Ping at the beginning.) Before you guys get mad at me for posting this here, I want this to get as much attention as possible, so Riot gets to fix this as fast as possible. I've already submitted a ticket, but I was hoping this one time I could use Reddit to make this more visible for them, since I believe they have tons and tons of support tickets which have to be processed. **TL;DR:** (http://imgur.com/a/u1IKv) Aight, I hope I did this right."
iD Ryze
Once again I would like to reply the same way as I did in the game. This guy and his 2 other premades (3 in total) joined a dominion game, one of them said there was some emergency and went off then the other 2 made an excuse to blame me to go AFK when I am fighting with all my might with the remaining akali. I hope that akali comes and takes my side and helps me clear my name. // Edit: So basically he edits a dorans ring into a witchcap then into a abyssal?
Junior Member
i was the akali, this 3 guys premade were afk all the game :/ but i understand their point.
http://i.imgur.com/acWVHzR.jpg Btw, check his Match History, he has random item slots sold every game. http://www.lolking.net/summoner/euw/31570602

There may be some secret gold exploit at the moment, or some item that you can resell to shop for more than its buy value. Another thread on pretty much the same topic is here: http://www.reddit.com/r/leagueoflege...rans_at_start/
Evidence enough? http://postimg.org/image/gca5csrht/
That's some huuuuge exploit. Do people get a ban for that kind of thing? I guess It goes against the summoner's code.
Why isn't there a Riot reply on this yet? There is so much evidence already.

Straight Hairstyles

Sasha Pieterse
Aug 9 2012
Sasha Pieterse sported a loose fishtail braid at The Songbirds' 'Miss Me' Album Release Party hosted by ELLE Magazine.
Styling Tip
Step 1: Start with dry hair with smooth volume on top and subtle texture through your length.
Step 2: Leaving a few side-parted layers out in front, sweep your length back and to one side and place into a ponytail using a coated elastic band.
Step 3: Separate hair in thirds, then create a tight fishtail braid. Mist with hairspray for all-day hold.

Trick Rocket is the fun puzzle game based on real events. In this fun action-physics game you need to guide your rocket around to each waypoint, then land it again to complete the level. Keep an eye on your fuel supply as you zoom around the objectives to become the best rocket pilot on earth!
This game is part of Game The News; a project to turn news and current events into games. This particular game took 5 days to create and was inspired by the news that commercial space company, SpaceX's Grasshopper rocket had successfully taken-off and landed, a major milestone in the commercial space race. This is key because; if each time you flew on an airliner you then needed a new plane – we'd not be flying much!

For the majority of the County, the primary causes of flooding are tropical systems and afternoon thunderstorms, which generally occur from June to November. Certain areas of Volusia County are low-lying and subject to flooding from rising water. Specific areas include the Northern Peninsula, property adjacent to the St. John's and Halifax Rivers, the Stone Island area, and southeast portions of the County Including Edgewater, New Smyrna Beach, and Oak Hill. Storm water runoff occurs in many locations and may cause flooding. This problem has recently become more critical because of development in areas subject to urban flooding. Many homeowners and business do not carry flood insurance, which can result in high uninsured losses.
The flood warning system
Residents should be aware that Volusia County has a Comprehensive Emergency Management Plan that includes a variety of warning systems, described below, to provide citizens with up-to-the-minute information on impending storms or flood threats.
Volusia County Emergency Operations Center
The Volusia County EOC works with our cities, towns, the National Weather Service, the National Hurricane Center, and the State Department of Emergency Management to monitor flood and storm threats and to advise the community accordingly. Warning systems include a community-wide emergency telephone notification system, Brighthouse cable override, Doppler radar, and the Emergency Activation System.
Tune to the following stations for up-to-date weather information when inclement weather threatens:
AM/FM Radio Stations | Television | NOAA Weather Radio |
WNDB 1150 AM WNDA 1490 AM | WCEU-TV 15 | 162.475 MHz |
Flood Safety Measures
Do not walk through flowing water. Drowning is the number one cause of flood deaths. Currents can be deceptive; six inches of running water can sweep you off your feet.
Do not drive through flooded areas. More people drown in their cars than anywhere else. Two feet of water is enough to float an automobile – even a bus.
Stay away from power lines and electrical wires. The number-two killer after floods is electrocution. Electric current can, and does, travel through water. Report downed power lines to your electric utility.
Flood Insurance
For most people, their home and its contents represent their single greatest investment. Property losses due to flooding are not covered under most standard homeowners' insurance policies. You can protect your home and its contents with a Flood Insurance Policy from the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).
To find out more about flood insurance for your property and its contents, contact your insurance agent. There is a 30 day waiting period before a flood insurance policy takes affect, so don't wait until the storm threatens before you obtain the flood insurance you need.
Drainage System Maintenance
Grass clippings, tree limbs, soil erosion, overgrown vegetation and other debris adversely impact the carrying and storage capacity of drainage systems. Flooding occurs more frequently and reaches higher elevations, subjecting property to more flood risk, when drainage systems are clogged. Keep grass clippings and other debris out of stormwater drainage systems to prevent loss of stormwater storage and carrying capacity. Per County ordinance, it is illegal to dump trash, debris, and hazardous chemicals (such as used oil) into drainage ways.
Some storm drains empty directly into the Halifax and St. Johns rivers. These drains are marked with a metal disk:
If you experience localized drainage problems notify your Public Works Department so that the problem can be corrected. Phone numbers for Public Works Departments can be found in the Blue Pages of this directory.
For further information
If you would like further information on flood insurance, FIRM maps, building protection, documentation on community floodplain management or flood hazard mitigation, contact:
Volusia County Emergency Management Division

Woman Who Stole Identities of Prison Volunteers Sentenced
DES MOINES, IA - On May 18, 2012, Shelley Ann Bridges, age 37, of Indianola, Iowa, was sentenced to 48 months of imprisonment for one count of aggravated identity theft and one count of credit card fraud, announced United States Attorney Nicholas A. Klinefeldt. Senior United States District Judge Ronald E. Longstaff also ordered Bridges to serve a term of supervised release of 3 years following her incarceration, pay an assessment of $100 to the Crime Victims Fund, and pay $8,994.38 in restitution.
Bridges obtained personal identifier information of volunteers who participated in a church outreach program at Mitchellville Women's Correctional Facility. In August and September 2011, Bridges used the personal identifiers of at least 48 volunteers to fraudulently obtain credit accounts with at least five victim financial institutions. Bridges used the fraudulently obtained credit accounts for her own benefit.
This investigation was conducted by the United States Postal Inspection Service, the Urbandale Police Department, the West Des Moines Police Department, and the Des Moines Police Department. The case was prosecuted by the United States Attorney's Office, Southern District of Iowa.

Showers are expected this evening across the region as a disturbance moves in from our North. Snow levels will be dropping to 1,500′ in some locations so it's quite possible some areas in the Rogue Valley may have a dusting in the morning. Any snow showers that do develop and move through will bring very light accumulations if any. The Basin could also see snow showers this evening, while the Coast will see rain showers.
By midday tomorrow we will see a brief break in between our next storm system. By late afternoon more showers will move in once again. Friday morning a warm front will come through, raising snow levels a bit before a very cold air mass moves in behind it. This system could bring snow to the Valley floor Friday evening into Saturday morning. As of right now, it looks as though it will be bringing quite a bit of snow to the Cascades. If I had to make an estimate now, I'd say a good 6″ or so certainly possible in the Mountains, with slightly lower amounts in the Siskiyous. Still, this storm is about 48 hours out so for now we will have to continue monitoring it!
Stay tuned to NewsWatch12 for updates and follow me on Facebook for the latest weather conditions!

How to Increase Internal Memory Samsung Galaxy Ace [Ultimate Guide]
The Samsung Galaxy Ace user, there are high chances you could have met the low internal memory space error while installing applications or accessing regular functions/during regular usage in the phone. This happens as the internal memory space that's available to use is so low that another application cannot run or install using the free memory available.
Now we have go to about solve this problem on your Samsung Galaxy Ace smartphone. The only pre-requisite for this would be a memory card reader that can be connected to your computer, or an in-built SD card reader on your desktop/laptop computer.
How to Increase Internal Memory Samsung Galaxy Ace
- Download the MiniTool Partition Wizard application and install it on your computer.
- Now, insert your microSD card into an empty microSD-SD Card and plug it into your computer through the card reader. Do note that you should not access the files of the memory card through the phone or its mass storage device mode and this has to be strictly followed.
- Now, copy all the files within the memory card and back it up locally on your computer. This is very important as during this process, all the data from the memory card will be erased while re-partitioning occurs.
- Now, open the MiniTool that was installed previously in Step 1 and select SD Card.
- Right click on the option and pick 'Delete'. Upon confirmation, the contents of the memory card are now deleted.
- Now, right click and click on 'Create New'. Here, choose FAT32 file type and allocate a good amount of memory space as you desire. Note that this space will be used to store the media and other files, so do allocate accordingly.
- Now, similarly, select 'Create As: Primary' directory as an ext2 partition and allocate some memory as you would need. Note that in this partition, all the necessary applications will be fitting in.
- Click the Apply button on the top-left corner of the application and insert the microSD card into your Ace smartphone.

I spent a few dollars on iPhone apps last week but I still haven't decided on a favorite. The Ocarina and the iBeer are okay but sometimes, they just bore me. Maybe I should get the $5.99 mobile game app called the Fast and Furious: Pink Slip so I could be entertained more.
This iPhone game is no 'Need for Speed' but at least you get pure arcade experience on the iPhone. Features include four racing modes, 32 cars, 32 challenging races, and cinematic cut-scenes.
I have yet to try playing this one but just watching the video excites me already.

Also in this
section: One
day like today 39 years ago, they disappeared Father Héctor Gallego. Among the
things he left behind he wrote the following statement: "If I disappear don't
look for me, keep up the fight." The truth is that many of us have
disobeyed and are still searching, but the more difficult thing is following
the second part, keeping up the fight for which he gave his life in the fields
of Santa Fe, Veraguas. What
was his fight? For that I go back today to look at the pieces of paper on which
I took some notes on the conclusions of a seminar held in the mountains of
Veraguas, a few weeks before the kidnapping. With blue ink and hasty notes I
wrote down some of the ideas that the campesinos and Father Héctor Gallego
discussed. And I quote: "The objective of our struggle is to raise a
person's consciousness so that person recognizes his or her rights. We must be
conscious to thus help others to be so. We must use dialogue to raise
consciousness, and thus change the situation and mentality of men and
women." What
was the reason for proposing this consciousness raising? "Because we feel
the needs in how we live. To make change in society, and so that people can
live like human beings. Because we have considered the problems and we see the
need to end the abuses, to lend a hand so that we can develop as human beings.
Men and women are people, not instruments, and the present society doesn't
allow us to fully develop ourselves. Why change this mentality? To get to a
social order that considers people to be human for what they are and not for
what they have, one in which money is a means and not an end. We need to
recognize our rights and fight against injustices, so that our values and
equality among mankind are recognized." For
the campesinos and for Héctor, what was money to that day's society? "It
is an end. The God of money is used to enslave, humiliate and subjugate us.
What should money be? A means to develop us ourselves as people, not to exploit
us, a means to live properly." How
do we make people aware, in which ways? "By talking at every moment when
the opportunity is presented, so that our rights are recognized. By knowing and
analyzing the current situation and its causes. By seeing how we want to be. By
seeking a commitment. By making a plan of action. By evaluating our
actions." Is
there something false in these ideas? Or are they not, better stated, the
application of the evangelical message, the universal statement of human
rights, of all the advances in human dignity that have been made in the face of
the campesinos' harsh realities? Hector
Gallego was the bearer of a humanizing proposal of Christian, social, humanist
and inclusive inspiration, not only viable through the deep commitment to the
poor people in the fields, but also for
other excluded social actors. It touched me to accompany him in his final trip
to the capital, in the search of this idea's articulation among the workers,
students and urban communities. His
commitment cost him his life, as it was seen as a danger for the great
established political and economic interests. But the message that he embodied
lives in many ideas, proposals and commitments, as nearly 40 years later Panama
continues to be a country of enormous inequalities and endless injustices. Also in this

The film is accompanied by a music score performed on electric organ by Bob Vaughn.
This edition has been mastered from a good to very-good 16mm reduction print.
The film is accompanied by a music score compiled from preexisting recordings.

O'Brien, M. and Giovanini, L. and Ordys, A.W. and Katebi, M.R. (2005) Wiener modelling and model predictive control for wastewater applications. In: 17th European Simulation Symposium and Exhibition, 2005-10-20 - 2005-10-22, Marseille.

The research presented in this paper aims to demonstrate the application of predictive control to an integrated wastewater system with the use of the wiener modeling approach. This allows the controlled process, dissolved oxygen, to be considered to be composed of two parts: the linear dynamics, and a static nonlinearity, thus allowing control other than common approaches such as gain-scheduling, or switching, for series of linear controllers. The paper discusses various approaches to the modelling required for control purposes, and the use of wiener modelling for the specific application of integrated waste water control. This paper demonstrates this application and compares with that of another nonlinear approach, fuzzy gain-scheduled control.

Stern partners with international universities to deliver DBi courses. The 3-credit intensive courses include 8-10 full days of required programming, while the 1.5-credit intensive courses include 4-5 days.
Classes (i.e., lectures, discussions, and special speakers) are led by the academic faculty at the partner institution. Lectures may be augmented by visits to both large and small companies, as well as by industry and government speakers who relate to the students the role of cultural influences and country-specific topics, challenges, and opportunities. Academic deliverable requirements vary by program and are equivalent to a Stern course in academic rigor, contact hours and workload. The course work concludes with a final project, assignment or paper graded by the host school faculty. The intensive, international course also includes visits to local cultural or social events.
Language of Instruction: All DBi sessions are taught in English.
Students may apply up to 6 credits of DBi towards their Global Business Specialization.
For specific DBi programs:
January and May DBi course credits fall outside of the semester and, therefore, do not count for the Fall or Spring semester credit load limits: 15 for full-time students and 9 for part-time. Credit overload or acceleration approval is not required for these DBi courses.
Thanksgiving (November) and Spring Break (March) DBi course credits are within the semester and, therefore, are included in the credit maximums for that semester. See DBi Registration Overview.Students are not permitted to enroll in a DBi course and another course (e.g., other NYU course, Langone Intensive or Summer Module) that have overlapping class sessions.
Attendance and full participation is essential to the experiential learning for intensive, international programs. All students must attend all required sessions which may include lectures, speaker sessions and corporate visits. Attendance will be taken at every session on every day of the program. Required sessions are marked on the syllabus and reviewed at the Pre-Departure Class.
Due to the importance to the learning experience, failure to attend or arriving late to a required session will result in a lower final grade for the course.
The following grade deduction will be in effect for missed sessions:
Each course has a mandatory Pre-Departure Class at Stern before the on-site abroad location portion of the course. This class is considered the first mandatory session of the course. Details and logistics of the course as well as emergency protocols are covered at this meeting. The student is responsible for all information covered at this meeting. Study groups, if required, will be formed and course deliverable are reviewed. The course syllabus contains the dates, schedule and program details.
Students who are unable to attend the Pre-departure Class will not be permitted to participate in the DBi program.
All students must sign and abide by the DBi Travel Code of Conduct & Responsibilities while on the program as well as comply with the Code of Conduct for both New York University and the Stern School of Business.
All students who participate in the "Doing Business in…" (DBi) Program are expected to maintain the highest standards of professional conduct and integrity.

Tell Commissioners to Keep Majority-Minority Districts in Final PlansYour voices and testimonies helped change the shape of our children's futures. You told the Commissioners that this was not about lines on a map, this is about our children, their education, health care and opportunity. And 3 out of 4 Washington State Redistricting Commissioners released first-draft maps that include a majority-minority Congressional district—one which mirrored the Unity Map that we fought for. Public comment on the draft plans closes on October 11. Tell the Commission that you support majority-minority districts that will strengthen representation for our community. It's easy! We already wrote a draft letter that you can make your own. Send a quick email to Commissioners before October 11. Even though few people thought we would win, OneAmerica teamed up with the Win-Win Network, the NAACP, and others to form United for Fair Representation, a coalition that submitted district maps that would maximize representation for immigrant communities and communities of color. We launched a massive campaign and turned out hundreds of people to almost all of the 18 public hearings across the state.
