It's been a little over a week since the conclusion of our National Conference on Education in San Diego. Based on positive news clips that keep coming in plus conversations about the conference through social media among our members, I'm pleased to see there is no sign of a let up in the positive momentum generated by AASA's 150th anniversary celebration.
My time spent with superintendents during our meeting gave me perspective which supports our work as the premier organization for public school system leaders—enough to make our founding fathers proud.
For generations, AASA has been bringing together some of the sharpest minds in education at our conferences. And today, we're working harder than ever on behalf of our superintendents in an effort to help them thrive on the job—and create enriching and robust programs that will lead to cutting-edge learning opportunities for the students they serve ...
By Daniel A. Domenech, Executive Director, AASA: The School Superintendents Association
In preparing for the celebration of AASA's 150th anniversary, I read the copy of "AASA, The Centennial Story," written by Arthur Rice in 1964, which sits on the bookshelf behind my desk. What a fascinating read. In this column, I draw liberally from the information provided by Rice, a professor of education at Indiana University.
It was on Aug. 15, 1865, in Harrisburg, PA, at a meeting of the National Teachers Association, that a group of superintendents created the National Association of School Superintendents. Earlier that year, the Civil War had come to an end and President Abraham Lincoln had been assassinated. Six months later, in February, the group held its first convention in Washington, D.C. Nine state superintendents and 20 city superintendents attended.

It is clear, from the very beginning, advocacy at the national level would be a key mission of the newly formed organization ...
Deanna Martindale is a 2014 PDK Emerging Leader and principal at Hebron Elementary School in Ohio. She has spent nineteen years in education, teaching sixth grade, serving as a professional development coach, and helping plan one of the first K-12 STEM programs in her state.
She recently took some time to share her thoughts on STEM learning, engaging curriculum, preparing students for college-and-career, and connecting with parents, students and staff in support of student achievement.
Public School Insights (PSI): Thank you so much for taking the time to share your insights with us here at Learning First Alliance. First, would you share some of your professional background with us?
This is my 19th year in education and my fourth year as an elementary principal. I have taught sixth grade, all subjects, and served as an instructional coach, working on assessment design and inquiry based teaching. I also spent time as a professional development coordinator with the Teaching and Learning Collaborative, working some with COSI Columbus to develop an Inquiry Learning for Schools summer program for teachers. I conducted professional development around the state to help roll out Ohio's new science standards and best instructional practices, and I was a STEM coordinator for Reynoldsburg schools, where I worked with a design team of teachers and administrators to plan one of the first K-12 STEM programs in the state ...

During a recent trip to the grocery store, the cashier told me that the city had instituted a five-cent charge for plastic bags. I immediately purchased three reusable bags to carry home my groceries and will always have those bags with me.
As I walked to the car, I thought about what had just happened. For years, I had watched while others brought their reusable grocery bags to the checkout lane. I thought it was a great idea, but I never took the step to change my habits. I knew why I should change my habits, but hadn't made the change -- it just wasn't important enough to me. And then, in the blink of an eye, I changed a behavior.
It's not that I can't afford the five cents. It was the principle. But what was the principle? That I wouldn't pay for something that before had been free? That I heard the city's message about reducing waste? Or that I already knew it was the right thing and now had the motivation to change? ...
By Sharon P. Robinson, President and CEO, American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education (AACTE)
It's an insidious message embedded in the American psyche: Those who can't, teach. For years, report after report has banged the drum for raising admission standards into teacher preparation programs, citing international comparisons and championing cost-prohibitive recruitment policies.
In reality, the talent pool now entering teacher preparation programs is rich. Our programs are, in fact, attracting their share of high achievers—defined by any number of criteria.
One popular (if unreliable) measure of academic ability, SAT and ACT scores, has been trending upward among novice teachers in public schools. A recent study out of Stanford University finds that new teachers in 2008 had a wide range of SAT results, evenly spanning the bottom, middle, and top third of scores. This distribution reflects a change from scores reported in 1993 and 2000, when very few new teachers came from the top third. A similar study looked at new teachers in New York State and found a significant increase in teachers from the top third of SAT scores from 1999 to 2010.
Academic ability alone, of course, does not make anyone a good teacher, nor is it meaningfully reflected in SAT scores ...
By Brian Lewis, CEO, International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE)
When it comes to meeting the needs of students, educators have aspirational goals. They passionately maintain a positive vision for what each student can become. Educators and school leaders know one size does not fit all. As such, many of them have a number of different learning and teaching strategies to reach every child. The same cannot typically be said for the delivery of professional learning for educators.
As Congress takes steps to reauthorize the Elementary and Secondary Education Act (more recently referred to as No Child Left Behind), the International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) is calling upon leaders to include the Enhancing Education Through Technology Act of 2015 (EETT15) in the final bill.
When it comes to professional learning for educators, the approach too often adheres to the "sage-on-the-stage" method. Educators are expected to sit through one-time workshops or lengthened faculty meetings for passive professional development ...
A December report from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) – the independent, nonpartisan agency that works for Congress and investigates how the federal government spends taxpayer dollars – reiterates what we at the Learning First Alliance have been saying for well over a year: We need to provide the time and support necessary for teachers, administrators, parents and communities to get Common Core right.
Of course, when it comes to new college- and career-ready standards, it is not only the Common Core State Standards that require time to implement. The report found that all states (whether they adopted the Common Core or not) are using the same strategies – professional development, new curriculum and communications strategies – in implementation. They are also facing the same challenges. And while none of the GAO's findings are surprising to either educators in the field or their policy advocates, hopefully their report brings these issues to the attention of a new audience ...
In reflecting on our work over the past year, we at the Learning First Alliance are particularly proud of our efforts to learn what it will take to get Common Core right. We highlighted perspectives on the issue from a number of state and local leaders in podcasts and written interviews, engaged with the public in a series of Twitter Town Halls on issues related to implementation, released commentary in local markets, and celebrated progress in our efforts to delay tying high-stakes consequences to standardized assessments aligned with the standards.
But education in 2014 wasn't just about Common Core. In December alone, major events transpired: the U.S. Department of Education released proposed federal regulations for teacher preparation programs (open for comment until February 2), and the FCC approved a major increase in funding for the E-rate program, a decision will greatly expand schools' and libraries' access to high-speed internet.
We covered these items and much, much more on our blog this year. Of all that we posted, what caught the attention of you, our readers? Here are our top posts of 2014, as determined by Google Analytics. Enjoy!
- Three Ways to Build Trust for Professional Learning – In our top post of 2014, Learning Forward Senior Fellow Hayes Mizell argues that a lack of trust is at the core of many educators' cynicism about and resistance to professional learning, and he offers three ways that leaders responsible for organizing professional learning can build it.

This piece was co-authored with Melissa Cropper, president of the Ohio Federation of Teachers. It first appeared in the Toledo Blade. View the original here.
Many lawmakers and political activists appear determined to perpetuate an endless debate over Ohio's New Learning Standards, our version of the Common Core state standards. But teachers and school leaders across the state have been working hard to carry out the higher standards for student learning that we committed to years ago.
Teachers are already seeing benefits for students.
"They're not doing as many paper-and-pencil activities and seat activities," says Amy Whaley, a fifth-grade teacher in Toledo. "We're up out of our seats. We're doing projects. We're encouraging students to talk and to share, because of the speaking and language standards that are involved."
Like Ms. Whaley, teachers across Ohio are participating in and leading professional development, and creating new lessons designed to help students build a deep understanding of critical concepts in math and reading. Yet the challenge of introducing a new and higher set of standards, even as teachers dedicate time and energy to doing so, is significant. ...
We talk a lot about transforming teacher preparation to meet the changing demands of both today's P-12 students and the education workforce. Often these discussions revolve around alternative certification programs, but to make a large-scale impact, we have to consider how the institutions of higher education that train nearly 90% of incoming teachers should respond to the challenges that new teachers and P-12 schools and districts face.
Fortunately, there are a number of models from which we can learn, institutions of higher education working in innovative ways to ensure that teachers enter the classroom prepared to be successful. The American Association of Colleges for Teacher Education's (AACTE) The Innovation Exchange highlights many such programs, including Georgia State University's Network for Enhancing Teacher Quality (NET-Q) program.
NET-Q is a collection of projects designed to prepare educators for the demands of teaching high-need subjects in high-need schools. To learn more about this impressive initiative, we contacted Dr. Gwendolyn Benson, who serves as the associate dean for school, community and international partnerships in the College of Education at Georgia State University and as the principal investigator for the NET-Q program. She graciously took the time to describe the key features of NET-Q, including its teacher residency program and partnerships with Historically Black Colleges and Universities, and the impact of the program, which includes higher teacher retention rates, academic gains for P-12 students and richer and truer partnerships with local schools and districts.
Public School Insights (PSI): Critics often claim that educator preparation programs don't prepare teachers – particularly those who will work in high-needs communities – for the realities they will face in the classroom. But I understand Georgia State University's College of Education is facing that challenge head on, with the Network for Enhancing Teacher Quality (NET-Q) project. Could you briefly describe the initiative?
Benson: The goal of this project is to increase the quality and number of highly qualified teachers who are committed to high-needs schools, thus positively impacting the achievement of students in these schools. This is accomplished by increasing the recruitment and support of prospective teachers of science, technology, engineering and mathematics; special education; and English language learners, to meet the needs of urban schools in the Metro Atlanta area and nearby rural high-need districts ...

Good weeding habits for a organic garden
We just redid landscaping and we want to keep it chemical free. I would like to get some advice on how to stay on top of weeds. We have perennial borders, vegetable beds, fruit plantings (berries etc.) and annuals.
How often should one weed an area to keep on top of weeds?
What kind of mulch? We do have leaf drop and I want to be able to use a leaf blower and not blow away the mulch.
What tools make weeding easy? Can I weed standing up with any tool?
I scan my yard almost every day. Sometimes several times a day because I enjoy it. They say 10 minutes a day is better than 70 minutes in one session because you can get to problems before they get too big.
I like shredded leaf mulches because they are free and fallen leaves don't stand out.
I use a dandelion digger or a shovel for large weeds. I disturb the soil as little as possible so not to stir up more weed seeds.
A good mulch can help with unwanted plant (weed) growth.
How often to "weed" depends on many things and no one can tell you how often you need to "weed". Some people are out every day while others find once a week or two works for them.
The best tool for removing "weeds" is your fingers. If you need a tool of some kind you have waited too long to remove the "weed".
It sounds silly but the answer to 'how often' is 'as often as possible'. As kimmsr says, regular patrolling and removing the odd seedling as soon as you spot it will save a lot of time and effort in the long run. Weeding is an integral part of gardening and some of us quite enjoy it. It is very relaxing just sitting or kneeling in the garden weeding and musing. It is also a way of getting to know your plants intimately and recognise them in all the growth stages. Anyone who weeds regularly soon stops pulling up desirables by mistake. Weeding is also an opportunity to spot pests before they become a problem.

Public Health is an interdisciplinary major offered by the Biology and Government departments. Students in our courses study the health of communities and how it can be affected by community-based action. We study the burden of disease, the principles and history of public health and how to measure health, health in the context of human rights, how to measure and improve health systems, the influence of culture on health, and the organizational actors in local, national, and global public health. We draw on the science underlying health in human communities and examine the use of such knowledge in a political arena that is central to getting things done.
The mission of the Public Health major is to educate F&M students in public health from the perspective of the liberal arts, with particular attention to the analysis of public health problems from multiple perspectives and with tools from multiple disciplines and with emphasis on theory and history. Public health is linked to the formulation and implementation of public policy, thus connecting science and government at its core. Public health incorporates an international perspective. We encourage and guide students to ask broad questions of meaning, to challenge assumptions and structures, to ponder ethical questions, to evaluate the effectiveness of solutions to problems, and to develop a deep moral intelligence surrounding public health. The program offers two tracks:
Biology Track Core: PBH 251, PBH 351, BIO 110, BIO 210 (or GOV 250), BIO 220, BIO 230, BIO 305, BIO 322, CHM 111, CHM 112, GOV 100, GOV 120, GOV 200, GOV 388, GOV 410 or PBH 470. Choose one elective from: ANT 234, BIO 310, BIO 323, BIO 336, BIO 338, ENV 315, GOV 130, GOV 208, GOV 305, GOV 309, PHI 223, PHI 337, PSY 309, STS 311, SOC 330, BIO 490.
Government Track Core: PBH 251, PBH 351, BIO 110, BIO 220, GOV 100, GOV 120, GOV 200, GOV 208 or GOV 309, GOV 250 (or BIO 210), GOV 305, GOV 388, GOV 410 or PBH 470, STS 311. Choose three electives from: ANT 234, BIO 310, BIO 336, ENV 315, GOV 130, PHI 223, PHI 337, PSY 309, SOC 330, PBH 303, GOV 490.

As of today's release, our Plugin Vulnerabilities plugin includes entries for 200 security vulnerabilities that have existed in WordPress plugins. While that is far from all of the vulnerabilities out there, it does include a good mix of vulnerabilities. So far we have focused on adding newly discovered vulnerabilities, vulnerabilities that we are seeing exploit attempts for, and vulnerabilities from the archives of security researchers. We have included some stats we collected on those vulnerabilities below.
One stat stands out, over a quarter of the vulnerabilities – 54 of 200 – have not been fixed. A few of these were only recently discovered or the developer was only recently informed of them (all too often no one bothers to inform the developer and this is something that our work on the plugin has been rectifying), but for the vast majority there has been ample time and notice to the developer so they should have been fixed by now. This is a big problem because simply keeping plugins up to date won't protect you if the latest version of the plugin has a known security vulnerability that can be exploited.
Right now what happens when a vulnerability isn't fixed is that the plugin will be removed from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory until it is fixed, assuming the people running the Plugin Directory are informed of the issue. That does nothing for any websites that already have the plugin installed though. It is a problem we have been highlighting for three years now, without getting a solution. It also has been over two years since there was indication that a solution was being worked on. We hope that it won't take another year to finally get fixed. In the meantime you can use our Plugin Vulnerabilities plugin to get alerted to known vulnerabilities in installed plugins and our No Longer in Directory plugin to find out what installed plugins have been removed from the WordPress.org Plugin Directory.
Plugin Vulnerability Stats As of March 2, 2015
- 200 vulnerabilities included
- 54 included vulnerabilities are in the most recent version of plugins (49 of these plugins have been removed from the Plugin Directory)
- 14 vulnerabilities have been fixed in part due to our work on this plugin
- 5 included vulnerabilities in security plugins
- Top vulnerability types:
- cross-site request forgery (CSRF)/cross-site scripting (XSS): 49 vulnerabilities
- reflected cross-site scripting (XSS): 39 vulnerabilities
- unrestricted file upload: 31 vulnerabilities
- arbitrary file viewing: 16 vulnerabilities
- SQL injection: 15 vulnerabilities
- Top vulnerability discoverers:
- dxwsecurity: 27 vulnerabilities
- Kacper Szurek: 25 vulnerabilities
- High-Tech Bridge: 10 vulnerabilities
- HomeLab IT: 6 vulnerabilities
- Netsparker: 2 vulnerabilities

System administrators install, operate, and maintain hardware and software for an organization's computer system. They typically maintain existing systems, which involves installing new applications and hardware to keep the system current and working efficiently. On a daily basis, system administrators perform scheduled backups, archive files, change user privileges, or repair software and hardware malfunctions. They troubleshoot any problems that arise, responding to calls and emails from users that are experiencing difficulties. Periodic audits of the system need to be conducted a part of the job, as well as the application of patches and upgrades. Additionally, systems administrators maintain the system's security to protect data, hardware, and software from outside attacks.Read More...
An important aspect of the job is problem solving. When a system goes down, system administrators must be able to quickly and accurately fix the problem. Typically, no travel is required, but weekends and evenings may be part of the work schedule (sometimes with little or no advanced notice).
System administrator positions generally require a bachelor's degree in software engineering, computer science, or a related discipline, and these professionals are required to have certification in one or more programming languages. They need to know Windows or Linux server systems, along with the ability to write programs to automate tasks. Depending on the size of the organization, system administrators may work with either a large or small staff; they train and may manage other staff members, as well as help co-workers with their computer problems.
Survey results imply that System Support Administrators put a diverse skill set to use. Most notably, skills in Windows NT / 2000 / XP Networking, Microsoft Exchange, Network Management / Administration, and Microsoft Office are correlated to pay that is above average. At the other end of the pay range are skills like Internet Information Server, Microsoft Word, and System Administration. Most people experienced in Microsoft Office also know Network Management / Administration and Microsoft Exchange.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
System Support Administrators with a rich background of experience are typically rewarded with larger paychecks. The median compensation for relatively untried workers is $47K; in the five-to-10 year group, it's higher at around $55K. People with 10 to 20 years of experience make an average of about $57K in this role. System Support Administrators who have spent more than 20 years on the job report earning a significantly higher median of $72K.

Dan Rather Backs NBC's Brian Williams – Big Journalism
Disgraced former TV news anchor Dan Rather has come to the aid of embattled NBC anchor Brian Williams, saying that Williams is an "honest man." But Williams is caught up in a scandal of his own making after admitting to lying about being in a helicopter downed by enemy RPG fire in Iraq in 2003.
Rather, who was fired by CBS in 2004 after helping to create and air a report that falsely claimed that President George W. Bush had deserted from the Texas Air National Guard, came out in support of Williams on Thursday.
"I don't know the particulars about that day in Iraq," Rather told Politico. "I do know Brian. He's a longtime friend and we have been in a number of war zones and on the same battlefields, competing but together. Brian is an honest, decent man, an excellent reporter and anchor–and a brave one. I can attest that-like his predecessor Tom Brokaw–he is a superb pro, and a gutsy one."
Rather's vote of support came after Williams, who has been the chief anchor of NBC Nightly News since 2004, was forced to admit to his audience that he had "misremembered" the facts of the helicopter incident that he claimed he was involved in during an assignment in Iraq in 2003.

Sockets of a fuel rail assembly having bottom-feed fuel injectors communicate with a main fuel tube that serves all fuel injectors by means of holes in the sockets' sidewalls proximate the top of the main fuel tube. Below these holes, each socket is imperforate so as to dam the main fuel tube whereby the lowest level of any hole defines a weir level for fuel in the main fuel tube. If the lower seal between any fuel injector and its socket is compromised while the fuel is unpressurized, the fuel below the weir level will not drain out of the main fuel tube.
1. A fuel rail assembly for an internal combustion engine comprising a tubular-walled main fuel passage transversely intersected by at least one socket for receiving a respective bottom-feed fuel injector, a bottom-feed fuel injector received in said socket and comprising a fuel inlet port through which fuel enters and a nozzle from which fuel is injected, each said socket comprising a top end having a top opening via which the respective bottom-feed fuel injector is associated with and disassociated from said fuel rail assembly by insertion into and removal from the respective socket via the respective socket's top end and a bottom end having a bottom opening for allowing the respective fuel injector to spray fuel from the respective socket into such an engine, top sealing means for sealing between each fuel injector and the respective socket proximate the respective socket's top end to prevent fuel from leaking out of the respective socket via the respective socket's top end, bottom sealing means for sealing between each fuel injector and the respective socket proximate the respective socket's bottom end to prevent fuel from leaking out of the respective socket via the respective socket bottom end, said fuel inlet port of each fuel injector being disposed between the respective top and bottom sealing means, means placing a zone of each socket that lies between the respective top and bottom sealing means in fluid communication with said main fuel passage, including means defining a weir level for said main fuel passage that is effective to allow fuel to flow from said main fuel passage into each zone when said main fuel passage is pressurized with liquid fuel and that is effective to prevent fuel in said main fuel passage that is below weir level from draining from said main fuel passage into said zones when fuel in said main fuel passage is not pressurized, and in which said weir level is established to prevent at least more than half the fuel in said main fuel passage from draining out of said main fuel passage when fuel in said main fuel passage is not pressurized,
2. A fuel rail assembly as set forth in claim 1 in which said means defining a weir level comprises one or more holes which extend through a sidewall of said socket and via which said socket is in fluid communication with said main fuel passage.
3. A fuel rail assembly as set forth in claim 1 in which said main fuel passage has a non-circular transverse cross section.
4. A fuel rail assembly as set forth in claim 3 in which said tubular-walled main fuel passage comprises top and bottom parallel walls, each socket passes through respective aligned holes in said top and bottom walls and is joined in fluid-tight manner to said top and bottom walls at the respective holes therein.
This invention relates generally to fuel rail assemblies for internal combustion engines, and in particular to a fuel rail assembly that comprises bottom-feed type fuel injectors.
A bottom-feed fuel injector is one that comprises a fuel inlet port in its side a short distance above its nozzle, whereas a top-feed fuel injector comprises a fuel inlet port at its top end opposite its nozzle. A fuel rail assembly comprising bottom-feed fuel injectors comprises injector-receiving sockets that are open at both top and bottom ends. The open top end of a socket provides for a bottom-feed fuel injector to be inserted into and removed from the socket while the open bottom end allows the fuel injector nozzle to be placed in communication with an intake manifold runner that leads to an engine cylinder. The socket is shaped with shoulders for properly locating the fuel injector, and with the fuel injector properly seated in the socket, an upper O-ring seal that is disposed around the outside of the fuel injector above the fuel inlet port provides sealing contact with the socket wall to prevent fuel from leaking through the open top of the socket, and a lower O-ring seal that is disposed around the outside of the fuel injector below the inlet port provides sealing contact with the socket wall to prevent fuel leakage from the bottom of the socket. These two O-ring seals form top and bottom boundaries of a fuel zone of the socket that receives pressurized fuel through a main tube that serves fuel to a number of injector-containing sockets along its length. The fuel inlet port of each installed fuel injector is exposed to this fuel zone in its socket in order to receive pressurized fuel. The top of the fuel injector that is outside the socket contains an electrical connector that is connected to an electronic control unit that operates each fuel injector at the proper time. In order to secure each fuel injector in its socket, a retainer, typically in the form of a clip or bar, is releasably fastened to the fuel rail assembly so that only when it is unfastened can the fuel injector be removed.
When an engine-mounted fuel rail assembly is serviced, proper procedure calls for the entire assembly to be removed so that the fuel injectors, whether they be top-or bottom-feed, remain sealed to their sockets. If the proper procedure is not followed, such as by unseating or removing a fuel injector from its socket, resulting in loss of integrity of the bottom seal of a fuel injector to its socket, there is a risk that fuel in the assembly will drain by gravity out through the bottom of the affected socket. While escape of fuel in this manner is obviously undesirable, there is less likelihood of draining fuel intruding into an engine cylinder in the case of a fuel rail assembly that has top-feed fuel injectors in comparison to one having bottom-feed fuel injectors. This is because the nozzle ends of the top-feed fuel injectors will typically remain seated in the manifold runners if the fuel rail's sockets are separated from the tops of top-feed fuel injectors. Such will not be the case for bottom-feed fuel injectors. If the bottom seal is compromised while the fuel rail assembly is mounted on an engine, liquid fuel can immediately drain by gravity into the manifold runner, and if an intake valve to the corresponding engine cylinder is opened, the fuel may drain into the cylinder. A condition where a cylinder contains excess fuel is sometimes called "hydra-lock", and an attempt to start an engine with this condition may cause major engine damage.
The present invention relates to a means for minimizing, or possibly even eliminating, the possibility of hydra-locking an engine when the lower seal of a bottom-feed fuel injector is compromised while the fuel rail assembly is on an engine. Briefly, the invention contemplates the inclusion of a weir for damming the main fuel tube at each location where it communicates with a socket containing a bottom-feed fuel injector. The weir defines a level that fuel in the main fuel tube must overflow before it can flow into a socket. This level is neither so high nor is it so sized that it impedes the flow of fuel into a socket when pressurized fuel is delivered to the fuel rail assembly, but it is high enough that when the fuel is not pressurized, and the integrity of a lower fuel injector seal is compromised with the fuel rail assembly on the engine, at most only a minority of fuel, namely that which is above the weir level, has the potential to leak out of the fuel rail assembly, while a majority, namely that which is below the weir level, will not leak out. According to the disclosed embodiment of the invention, a weir level is created at each socket by making that portion of the socket's sidewall that intersects the main fuel tube fully imperforate except for a series of holes that allow the main fuel tube to communicate with the socket proximate the highest level of the main fuel tube. Thus, only fuel that is at or above that highest level has the potential to drain by gravity from the fuel rail since the dam created by the weir will prevent fuel at a lower level from draining out.
Principles of the invention will be seen in the ensuing description and claims that are accompanied by a drawing illustrating a presently preferred embodiment of the invention according to the best mode contemplated at this time for carrying out the invention.
FIG. 1 is an elevational view partly in cross section and partly schematic of a representative fuel rail assembly embodying principles of the invention.
FIG. 2 is a transverse cross section taken in the direction of arrows 2--2 in FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 is a view similar to FIG. 1 with portions removed.
A fuel rail assembly 10 comprises a main fuel tube 12 comprising a main fuel passage that serves a number of fuel injectors 14 that are mounted in respective sockets 16 at various locations along the length of tube 12, although FIG. 1 shows only a single one of several otherwise substantially identical injector-containing sockets. In use, fuel rail assembly 10 is mounted on an internal combustion engine (not shown) and is supplied with pressurized liquid fuel drawn from a tank 18 by a fuel pump 20. The liquid fuel pressure in tube 12 is regulated by a pressure regulator 22 that returns excess fuel to tank 18.
Tube 12 is rectangular in cross section, having top and bottom walls 24, 26 and containing aligned circular holes in these two walls at the location of each socket 16. Each socket 16 transversely intersects tube 12 at a right angle, passing through and being joined to the top and bottom tube walls in a fluid-tight manner so that fuel in the tube cannot leak out through the joints. Each socket 16 has a generally tubular shape that is open at both top and bottom ends. A fuel injector 14 is inserted into and removed from a socket via the opening at the top of the socket, and the socket is shaped with shoulders for locating the fuel injector in properly seated position when it is inserted into the socket. Although not shown in FIG. 1, a retainer in the form of a bar or a clip separably mounts on the assembly to retain each fuel injector in seated position in its socket.
Each fuel injector 14 is a bottom-feed type that has a fuel inlet port 28 in its side. There are top and bottom O-ring seals 30, 32 disposed around the outside of the fuel injector on opposite sides of inlet port 28 for sealing the fuel injector to the inside wall of the socket so that fuel cannot leak out of the fuel rail assembly between the fuel injector and the open ends of the socket. These seals form upper and lower boundaries of a fuel zone 34 to which inlet port 28 is exposed within the socket. The open lower end of the socket provides for fuel to be injected from the injector's bottom nozzle into an induction runner passage (not shown) that leads to an engine cylinder.
Each fuel zone 34 communicates with tube 12 by means of a series of holes 36 that extend through the sidewall of the corresponding socket 16 in the region where the socket intersects the tube. These holes are located proximate the highest level of tube 12 so that the portion of the socket sidewall that is below them in the region of the socket's intersection with the tube is imperforate. This imperforate portion of each socket forms a weir for fuel in tube 12. The weir level is defined by the lowest portion of any of the holes 36, and since the holes are of the same size and at the same level in a socket, the weir level is defined by all the holes 36, assuming that tube 12 is perfectly horizontal. Reference numeral 38 represents the weir level. The holes 36 are of sufficient size and number that delivery of fuel to all sockets 16 served by tube 12 is not restricted, yet the weir level is noticeably higher than the middle of tube 12. If integrity of a lower seal with its socket is compromised while the fuel rail assembly is on the engine and fuel in it is not under pressure, only fuel that is above the weir level has the potential to drain by gravity through the bottom opening of the affected socket, thereby preventing the fuel rail assembly from being completely drained of fuel. By reducing the amount of fuel that might otherwise drain, the invention serves to reduce the risk of hydra-locking, although there can be no guarantee that in any given case engine damage will not occur.
The illustrated embodiment is advantageous, because the weir is provided in the socket itself simply by the size, number, and location of holes 36. While a presently preferred embodiment of the invention has been illustrated and described, it should be appreciated that principles are applicable to other embodiments.

Marquette 68
(24) Cincinnati 80
9:00 PM ET, February 24, 2005
Fifth Third Arena, Cincinnati, Ohio
CINCINNATI (AP) -- With Marquette missing its best player, all Cincinnati had to do was let its two formidable power forwards take over the game.Eric Hicks and Jason Maxiell were up to it again.Hicks scored 17 points and Maxiell added 14 on Thursday, leading the Bearcats to an 80-68 win in Marquette's first game without leading scorer Travis Diener, lost for the season with a broken hand.Cincinnati (21-6, 9-4 Conference USA) got up by 28 points in the second half before coasting, one of the Bearcats' worst habits. Marquette hit some late 3s, cutting the lead to seven points in the final minute against Cincinnati's reserves."We get passive," coach Bob Huggins said. "We come out and play really, really hard, then get a lead and get passive. We get comfortable, and it's hard to play this game comfortable."Marquette (18-9, 6-8) had trouble finding shots without Diener running the show. Cincinnati (No. 22 ESPN/USA Today; No. 24 AP) is No. 2 in the nation in forcing opponents to miss, holding them to 36.8 percent -- exactly what Marquette shot.Diener, one of the nation's top point guards, led the conference in scoring (19.7 points per game) and assists (7 per game) when he broke his hand Tuesday during practice. He had surgery and will miss the rest of his senior season.Steve Novak led Marquette with 25 points, going 7-of-12 from behind the 3-point arc. Sophomore guard Dameon Mason took Diener's spot in the lineup and had 17.Diener was upbeat and smiling as he walked around the court during pregame warmups, slapping hands with teammates as they stretched on the floor. Huggins spotted Diener, walked over to him, shook his hand and warmly wrapped an arm around his shoulders.Huggins said something that made both of them laugh, then pumped his hand again before walking away to attend to his team.Then, the Golden Eagles found out just how much they're going to miss Diener.Marquette had won three of its last five games, showing signs of stabilizing. Without Diener, the Golden Eagles looked lost on offense. They couldn't get into a flow without the school's career 3-point leader on the floor."When they called plays, I know a lot of people weren't in the right spots," Hicks said. "There was confusion at times. I could tell they missed not having Diener out there."Coach Tom Crean called a 30-second timeout after Cincinnati surged ahead 13-4 in the opening minutes. Diener walked pensively around the perimeter of the huddle, and a fan in the Cincinnati student section held up a sign that read: "No Diener No Chance."Crean thought his team missed Diener's leadership at the outset."Probably, but that's not an excuse," Crean said. "We've got to learn to deal with it. We figured it out in the second half."Cincinnati got open 3s over Marquette's zone, packed in to try to contain Maxiell and Hicks. Nick Williams made three of his first four shots from behind the arc, putting the Bearcats in control early. Williams finished with 16 points.Freshman walk-on guard Ryan Patzwald made a 3 and a jumper during an eight-point spurt, and Hicks made a turnaround jumper and three-point play that put the Bearcats up 38-21 at halftime.Marquette had only two assists in the first half, underscoring how much it missed Diener.Hicks and Maxiell scored Cincinnati's first 10 points in the second half, helping the Bearcats extend their lead to 20. Cincinnati led by as many 28 before Marquette closed the gap down the stretch behind Novak's long-range shooting over the Bearcats' back-ups.

Whither the Weather?
By WILLIAM SAFIRE
Published: December 20, 2001
We are told that because we drive gas-guzzling utility vehicles and insist on repeatedly exhaling, greenhouse gases are entrapping the warm air, raising the earth's temperature, which will inexorably melt the polar icecaps and drown us all.
And you were nibbling your nails about terrorism in the skies, or anthrax in the mails, or the prospect of post-prosperity. Forget about the end of history; instead, stressniks worry about the end of winter.
We're not having one this year. No chestnuts roast on an open fire, and Jack Frost is not nipping at your nose. Sleigh bells are out of place when there's no winter in wonderland.
The data indicating widespread de-winterization are not anecdotal. (Construe data as plural when waxing scientific.) According to the World Meteorological Organization, the average surface temperature in 2001 will be 57.96 degrees Fahrenheit. In 140 years of recorded data, this heated-up year is topped only by the scorcher of 1998, when Al Gore was starting to run for president.
Let the experts debate the cause for this hot December (El Niño's southern oscillation?) and whether this weather is an aberration. The fact is that it is unseasonably warm. The impact of this fact is felt in the lives of the legion of the stressed.
Furriers are tearing their hair out; travel to sunny climes is laughable as climes converge; and 2,000 black bears in Massachusetts are refusing to hibernate. At Loeb's deli in Washington, D.C., hot dogs are out and cold cuts are in. Rap singers no longer strive to be cool. In interpersonal relationships, frigidity is at last finding its appeal.
In the Oval Office, for the first time in 30 years the air-conditioning is likely to be turned on full blast to allow a crackling fire in the president's fireplace.
The issue is upon us: What does the Bush administration intend to do about the climate crisis? At the State Department, sweating doves are urging reconsideration of the Kyoto Protocol, as well as the abandonment of oil drilling in the American Arctic and an advisory to unbutton topcoats.
At the Pentagon, however, more realistic analysts have noted recent meteorological reports that, contrary to the worldwide trend, winter in Russia has been unusually nippy -- indeed, minus 60 Centigrade was recorded across southern Siberia. An outside panel of impartial experts, Team Rummy, has been tasked to find out why Vladimir Putin has been able to maintain bracing temperatures while George W. Bush presides over an alarming call of the mild.
To meet the threat, the Justice Department has re-prioritized the F.B.I. mission and launched a hugely popular War on Warmth. A roundup of 5,000 visitors with a suspicious absence of suntans is sure to meet with near-universal applause. Although professional contrarians and publicity-seeking iconoclasts object to the administration's morale-building campaign, these media misfits are being characterized by the attorney general as ''heatmongers'' who aid and abet the evil forces perpetrating ever-milder winters.
Cynical mediacrities and other Democrats attribute a political motive to the president's unifying War on Warmth. (That phrase was hastily selected by the White House press secretary to replace the ill-considered ''Crusade for Cold,'' which had unfortunate religio-cultural connotations dating back to a 13th-century Saharan sirocco.) Republicans, meanwhile, are rallying round the president's military metaphor, noting that warmth is sure to be even more unpopular next August as the 2002 Congressional campaign gets under way.
Most profoundly gripped by the War on Warmth are the academicians of anguish. Life will never be the same, they moan. Farewell to the invigorating days of dashing through the snow, seeing your breath turn to vapor in the cold air, feeling the tingle of snowflakes that land on your cheeks and eyelashes. Gone, all gone is the crisp clarity of seasonal change -- now we must live with the unrelenting stress of mild weather, month after month.
At holiday time, I, too, miss the white winter of yesteryear. I long for the return of its happily benumbed fingers and merrily slush-spattered trousers. But count me not among those creating a climate of opinion resigned to the terror of permanent abnormality. Soon enough there'll be a change in the weather, and a change in us.

Almost a year ago, Erika Wennerstrom and her band, the Heartless Bastards, released an excellent LP, Arrow, which followed up the possibly more excellent The Mountain. Now that the hoopla surrounding the release of Arrow has passed, the Austin-based act is in a sweet spot. The band's set last March at Lola's in Fort Worth leaned heavily on the newest material, and for good reason. Every band wants to break the fresh stuff out. Wennerstrom's dusky, low-running voice is a fine instrument unto itself, so it's not really of much concern which album she sings from — as long as it's her singing.
